Southern Hang
Southern Hang is a podcast rooted in Kentucky and fueled by conversation. Hosted by four lifelong friends—all raised in Kentucky and proud alumni of the University of Louisville—the show blends a Southern perspective with real, unfiltered takes on life. We talk sports, music, fatherhood, culture, and whatever else pops into our heads, always with humor, honesty, and a little edge.
From in-depth interviews with musicians, athletes, and local celebrities to laid-back conversations about family, growing up Southern, and navigating adulthood, Southern Hang feels like pulling up a chair and joining the conversation. Whether you’re a sports fan, music lover, Kentucky native, or just someone who enjoys authentic storytelling and great banter, this podcast delivers relatable discussions with a distinctly Southern hang.

The Southern Hang fellas welcome in a legend of the indie rock scene. John Darnielle and his band, The Mountain Goats, have been at the epicenter of the scene since the early 2000s. John comes on the show to talk about his new album Through This Fire Across from Peter Balkan, including that cameo from Lin-Manuel Miranda! The fellas go into the difference between a Jambox and a Boombox, the difference between a ukulele and an accoustic guitar, touring with Adeem the Artist, and the unlikely No Children viral moment on TikTok.
