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.

What’s it like to find out you inspired the likes of Kurt Cobain and Dave Grohl? Yes, that Kurt Cobain. Yes, that Dave Grohl. Nirvana. Foo Fighters. And an entire generation of punk rockers. This week, we’re joined by the legendary Peter Searcy. We trace his journey from the DIY punk roots of Squirrel Bait establishing the Louisville Scene in the 80s, through the alt-rock era of Big Wheel and Starbilly. Peter talks about working with Steve Albini and going into the studio to record with Homestead Records. Peter opens up about his transition to a solo artist, his current role behind the scenes with Yacht Rock Revue, and what fans can expect from his latest musical chapter: Guilty Birds.
