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 fellas dive into the magic of the Laurel Cove Music Festival, held annually in the picturesque Laurel Cove Amphitheater at Pine Mountain State Resort Park. To kick things off, Neil, Craig, Red, and Sherm take a trip down memory lane to share their favorite stories of being snowed in as kids and the epic 1994 snowstorm during their college years.
Once the nostalgia clears, they break down the incredible 2026 Laurel Cove lineup that has the independent Appalachian music scene buzzing. We discuss the rise of headliners like Evan Honer, The Creekers, and Kashus Culpepper. We also highlight must-see artists like S.G. Goodman, Cole Chaney, Hollerhead, and John R. Miller. Plus, we give a special shoutout to former Southern Hang guest Ritch Henderson, who is also taking the stage this year! Find out why this Pineville, KY, tradition remains a bucket-list destination for music fans everywhere.
