COOKIN' UP A STORY: Peaches And Liberty For All - Red Vanzant
from Cookin' Up A Story
Red Vanzant's family has been in Arkansas since the 1800s. For that entire time, they've been growing fruit. On this episode, Red tells the boys about that family history, the changes the region has witnessed throughout their tenure, and how bureaucratic interference affected the fruit growing game.With a focus on giving back and leaving something better behind, Red's story twists and turns through World War II, the Great Depression, and motorcycle racing before ending in an impromptu song, with a few jokes along the way, one of which is that stubborn farmers aren't looking for sympathy. For, as Red's father told him, if you're looking for sympathy, you'll find it in the dictionary between shit and syphilis. Tune in for a great episode.
