‘Our American Stories’ features Atmore’s Vickery
Published 12:05 am Wednesday, August 23, 2017
Radio talk show host, author and former pro baseball player Lou Vickery was recently featured on Our American Network’s ongoing series, “Our American Stories.”
The stories are broadcasted two hours daily over both radio stations across the country, and via the Internet at www.OurAmericanNetwork.org.
The show’s executive producer, Jesse Edwards, interviewed Vickery on a “road trip” that found Edwards visiting Elvis Presley’s hometown of Tupelo, Miss.; Birmingham for a stop at the Black Radio Museum; a visit to Hank Williams hometown in Georgiana; a sit down with Vickery; and a trek to Destin, Fla. to enjoy the white sandy beaches.
When asked why Vickery was chosen to be featured, Edwards said, “We selected Lou because of his unusual background. He has been a professional baseball player and an accomplished author. How often do you find that combination? Then when you add his radio experience into the mix, you have the make-up of a very interesting guy.”
Headquartered in Oxford, Miss., OurAmericanNetwork.org was organized under a grant from several American corporations. The stories on Our American Network touch on some of the most interesting topics of past and present.
