What a gem of an interview. Jerry was a huge part of American fun and freedom. I saw him years ago in the early 2000’s. Stacy, you rock too. Awesome!!!
I started donating to the Wounded Warriors after my husband died 9 years ago when I took over the house hold finances. I saw he would donate once or twice a year to VFW . I happened to get something in the mail about the Wounded Warriors. I found out the good things they do for our service people that the government doesn't. I've donated every month since. It's not much $15 a month but I don't get alot from social security. But to me, they are the most deserving people in this country! The other is St Jude, because they take care of our most precious family members and don't charge a dime to the families! Loved this Jerry Reed interview! ❤️
THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO MEMORIALIZE JERRY REED. .. THE ONE AN ONLY.
Thank you.. There is only one Jerry Reed. He was an artist. People can try to play his songs but never play them as great as Jerry.
So glad I happen to come across this interview Stacey with Jerry Reed. Didn't know this existed. Highlight of my day.
Jerry Reed was such a wonderful man. I have never met him but I know people who have. Mr. Jerry you will never be forgotten. The other man I really miss is Waylon Jennings. 2 legends right there.
I got to meet Jerry, Waylon and Jessie Coulter when they did the Maxwell House Tour in 1983. Greatest night of my life as I was and still am a huge Jerry Reed fan. That's who I went to the concert to see. Jerry and I had fun, interesting conversation. He really was a nice, down to earth man.
Thx a Bunch Stacey for sharing. Jerry was a great, "loveable", man. There will never be another man with such love & full of life as the Snowman himself. Loved the interviews. He is truly missed. R.I.P. Jerry.
Thanks for this. Loved Jerry guitar playing and acting, especially Snowman in Smokey. His Snowman seemed like mostly Jerry Reed and nothing wrong with that. His involvement with WW Project was interesting & seems to have been an important part of his life. Inspiring to say the least ! Certainly glad he got the opportunity to share his comedic acting ability with all of us. Now that he and others are gone, all we have is movies and interviews like this to remember him by. Appreciate this !
Jerry Reed, Class!!! Thank you for sharing this!
I definitely miss Jerry Reed. I learned even more about him through these interviews. You could also call him a comedian. He could put a funny twist on everything he was doing.
Thanks for doing this interview and I am glad that he shed some light on the hardships that our veterans are facing.
I would have given anything to have met Jerry. He was my childhood hero . I grew up in a trucking family . But Jerry as the snowman was one of the influences that got me into it been trucking for 27 years now . Rest in peace Jerry your music and movies will live on
The legendary Mr Jerry Reed Hubbard!
Pure gold. I saw him at a Chet Atkens, Floyd Cramer, Boots Randolph and Jerry Reed concert in Fort Worth Texas as a kid. It was pure magic.
Thank you for showing what a great man Jerry was and what was important to him as it should be for all of us.
Truly thank you sir.
Thank you Stacy,I've always looked up to Jerry Reed
A True Gentleman
I didn't realize that I had so much in Common with Jerry Reed from being in the Army, we both never got past PFC while in there, and as a Gulf War Veteran I have even more Respect than ever before! Rest In Peace Mr. Reed! You Are Missed!
THANK YOU FOR S E R V I N G !!!! 👍🇺🇲💪🕊👈
Thank you for showing what a wonderful family man he was. Very lucky to have found this.
Thanks for this Stacey! Reed was a legend...
You're welcome! He sure was a legend, and still is!
Stacy is my favorite gearhead and it's so cool he was able to meet Jerry. My wife and I used to deliver pizzas in our 84 z28 we have a cb in there and had some friends who had cb radios we kind of brought them back in style for a little bit here in Michigan and we always jammed Jerry every single time
Ole' Jerry was a huge part of my life as I was growing up and listening to this 2 part podcast was a treat, it reminded me how much I enjoyed "the One Snowman" over the years! Thanks for taking the time to do this Stacey, God Bless!
Thanks for listening!
Just an awesome person always loved his great music and his movies always missed always remembered R.I.P. Jerry my friend
I would be happy just to hear Jerry Reed read the phone book. Could you imagine sitting around a campfire with this guy enjoying a few cold ones and listening to him tell stories...son.
That was beautiful! Would have been awesome to see him on camera, wish he was still alive so I could shake his hand tell him thank you for every he's done, give him the biggest hug he's ever had. 🍻 to the Snowman!!
Stacey thanks for sharing your time with Jerry. I have enjoyed both part 1 an 2. Can’t wait for the next one SON.
He just always seemed a regular guy that you could sit down and talk with for hours on end and he would be your friend for life…
Two Blessed' Awesome Gentlemen, in one recording' Thank You,Stacey David🛠️.Be always in Peace and Light' Jerry Reed🕊️🎼
Great interviews 1 & 2 Stacy, thanks for sharing. Jerry Reed, one of my favorite entertainers. He was 'alive', if you know what I mean.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Heartwarming. Thank you for interviewing Jerry. Well done!
God bless our veterans 🙏 who gave life and/or limb to make this country free, freedom isn't free 🙏. Last time I was in the hospital, my sister didn't even visit me but my brother in law did
Stacey I just saw this interview. Jerry Reed was awesome! I love his story about working with the vets. I think all these huge bands of the 80s should be visiting vet hospitals and singing songs with guitars to vets. Imagine Brian Johnson and Angus Young carrying a guitar just walked in to visit vets. How about Garth Brooks? I remember when Jerry was guest star on the TV show Mel’s Dinner. He went fishing with Mel. Caught a huge fish. It was amazing. Smokey and the Bandit was one of my all time favorites. I had a 1972 Trans Am in HS. We watched Smokey and the Bandit in drivers Ed in HS. Our teacher was cool! 1980. Amazing man Jerry was. Thanks so much for posting. I’m a fan of your TV show as well. I have a very clean 66 Chevelle conv I built. I play guitar as well. I hope to meet you at a car show someday. All the best!
A unique and talented man was Mr. Jerry Reed and you did a fantastic job interviewing him. I've loved Jerry Reeds music for a long time and now I love it even more. Naturally I had to put on Lord Mr. Ford after this podcast. Thank you sir!
Thanks for listening!
I totally Agree
THANKS for this. Love Jerry
I caught when he said his Grandson was 6’6”. One of Jerry’s famous songs, “A Thing Called Love”, starts with six foot six he stood on the ground. Elvis had a great version too. We need a lot more men like Jerry.
Was also a Johnny Cash song.. He did a great job.
thank you for doing such a cool and special 2 part show
That was great!! O'l Jerry was such a crack up!
He was a legend and is truly missed!
I love Jerry Reed I cover him a lot he’s my favorite

Beautiful soul.
That was Kool.
Underrated genius hidden behind a trailer park screen door. Could play with the Stones Parliament or Elvis.
Didn't matter to a guitar man

REALLY WISH U HAD / GET REAL VIDEO'S HERE !!!!!!!!!!
trying to find guitar tab for 'A thing called love' by Jerry
There will never be another Jerry"snowman"Reed.God made only one.
I HAVE BEEN A JERRY REED FAN SINCE THE MIDDLE 60's...I had a peculiar taste for music too...Jerry Lee Lewis, Jerry Reed, too many to list...Country hit me right between the eyes...why I never learned to play guitar, I don't know...Yeah, Smokey & the Bandit, was huge...Sally Fields, well, who don't love her??!!! ALL YOU VETS OUT THERE, THANK YOU BROTHERS & SISTERS!!! RE-READ REVELATION 18...it was the WTC of 9/11 in 2001...Babylon was used as example of the largest city on Earth, by John, when he penned Revelation on Patmos!!! 3X it says...in one hour it was gone...everything listed was available in the TWIN TOWERS FOR SALE...GET READY BOYS N GIRLS...9/11 is now 20+ years ago...(8/13/22)!!!! KEEP IT REAL BY GOING THROUGH THE ONE THAT SHED HIS BLOOD FOR YOU N ME!!! WAHOOOO & HALELUYA!!!!
Obviously nobody can play Jerry like Jerry. Chip Young, great Nashville session player said as much. He was a great finger picker but couldn't duplicate Jerry. But Chip did the intro to Dolly's hit Jolene. That's hard to duplicate also. He and Jerry were close friends. Look for an interview with him on the Musicians Hall of Fame page.
I love it! Tell me about your wife: I ain't through with my kids yet.
SON !
I wish I had the money to pay you to have you restore a vehicle for me cause I'm not mechanically inclined
& ever since I started to play, I've been a Gibson/Les Paul Nutt - but it's just SHAMEFUL how Gibson treated you when the "Reed Model" was proposed... I would buy one just on PRINCIPAL. Everybody uses a Tele on "EB&D", & that's pretty consistent with what electric guitar he's usually seen with but here's PROOF of those double "Pauls". 😉
