Don't let nobody anybody kid you they're still here
We ain't got no forest floor in Georgia. We call that the ground.
My grandfather and daddy ran moonshine in the 60s in GA. The stories are legend.
;)
For y'all Yankees and chill'en what he says at 26:05 is " my daddy's mother, set a lot of store by him."
Translation: she held him and his word in high esteem, and since public schools suck these days what that means is she liked him and believed in him.
It's just sad that people nowadays don't get these sayings!
Yankees don't know nothing. They should just stay home.
@@molley5175 That's what i'm saying!
@@invxin7793 can't stand them with Thier big mouths! Look at them now, coming to our areas taking over with their b.s. go home and go under, and leave the south alone! They do not belong with us!.
Traveling from the Tennessee to the Gulf Coast we happened upon this podcast on I heart radio and we were engrossed and entertained by it. Still listening to it after the vacation is over.
Who in Georgia calls the trunk a "boot"? That's how the Brits talk. I've never heard an American say that.
Depends on where in ga u r from and what decade
My mother was from Eastern North Carolina and she said boot
Turtle hull
I'm from SC and I call it the boot
My MS Marine daddy always said boot. Made my brother climb in and sleep.
i love hearing this los Angeles man talk about my birthplace.
It's ironic isn't it.
It is worrying that more people don't know of this amazing story!
Is there a discussion board anywhere?
@@gregwalter3951no discussion board but a love for organized crime
No, I don't think so.@@gregwalter3951
My uncle was Sheriff Buford Pusser and the Dixie Mafia tried to murder him several times and did murder his wife Pauline. It was a crazy time back then. I really enjoyed your podcast
WHY was B. Pusher seen carrying Pauline's shoes out of the house after he was seen putting Pauline in the car? Why did Pauline's daughter hear a shot that night? Would love to hear your thoughts. No disrespect, I have family also, some with skeletons some not. God bless & keep.
Why did he take the long way to the disturbance instead of the more direct and faster highway route?
Did you hear about them exhuming Pauline's body??
I was visiting a friend in Georgia and ran into Billy at Walmart.
I never heard of the Dixie Mafia or any of the Georgia stories. Billy led me to this podcast.
Real nice man
A great podcast,you did a great job putting this together.
I love the sound effects of the fire and crackling you just did a real good job here.
Got yourself a new subscriber
I may have a story for you in the near future, let me know if you're interested
My great grandfather was a moonshiner back in the day in the hills of Kentucky and Tennessee his name was Lucian Bone
Stoney loved his father. He might have idolized him when he was young, but no more. He’s very honest about his father. He’s also very open about how much he loved his father, and honest about their life outside the crime.
Fantastic job!
This is a gem
Awesome job!
Hands down the best podcast I've ever listened to.
Wow.
Look up Radio Lab Goat on a cows back.
I've heard about these guys like they were either Robin Hood type characters or pure evil.
This has been amazing. Your channel deserves more subscribers. Liked subscribed and shared!
This podcast is great! I went to that bookstore and bought the book, can’t put it down , that cyclone and Billy’s ability to drive that car,, I wonder who runs the the show in all these counties today, the government?
It’s been the government since the early 1900s if not earlier. The Dixie Mafia covered more than a few counties. It covered the Southeastern United States.
Fantastic production. On to part 2. Subbed. Nice work!
My Great Uncle was murdered by the Dixie Mafia. Its been years since i was told the story by my grandma. I do recall her saying he was shot, thrown into an old well and dynamite being involved. His body wasnt discovered for years. That was my childhood introduction to The Dixie Mafia
Also, his murder was the result of an argument/bar fight. Quite possible this mans Father was the one who did it as listen and read about how and why he did certain things
If you're not already aware, the Dixie Mafia wasn't just a Georgia "thing." Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi each had their own "chapters" if you will which were called Dixie Mafia. I suspect Louisiana did as well but have no confirmation. Each group operated and controlled within its own state UNLESS a specific situation was bettered handled by someone with either more experience and/or wasn't known in that state. (e.g., Mississippi DM might call on a member of Alabama's DM for a job in Mississippi) Your great-uncle was probably murdered by the DM state "branch" where his murder occurred. Someone commented on a different chapter that Buford Pusser, of "Walking Tall" fame, was his uncle. Members of the DM have always been suspected in both Pusser and his wife's (earlier) death. Those suspects are/were members of MS (and possibly AL) DM.
Love this podcast
I'm 64 years old and I'm from Tennessee. I've heard of the DM all of my life and I'd venture to say it still exists.
By the way, people who were Very Close to Buford said he was no choirboy. The movies portraying his life failed to include pertinent details.
Wow!!! Poor people do desperate things . God Blessss em🫂
Great show
My grandfather served nearly 20 years in Louisiana for his connection to kirksey nix and others in the 1960s he was called for interviews and book deals but he never spoke at all until he was 80 about what all happened but he did claim that " Dixie mafia" was a made up name created by news papers he went to his grave with a lot of guilt but I loved hearing the stories
My father was clifford lean wilson 3rd macon ga dixie mafia moonshiner and hit man my grandmother told me about 6 robberys and 4 muders from the 80s to like 90s to the early 2000s
My grandfather was a boss in the Dixie Mafia and was one of the last to get caught. He only got caught because he had a counterfeit press but the fbi never connected him to the Dixie Mafia because everyone was too scared to rat him out.
What was his name?
Was he from a little town called Waco Georgia
What was his name? My grandfather is in this podcast. He was one of the six kingpins
My great grandma was n the podcast
My great uncle was Harold Chancey. I grew up hearing so many horrible stories.
Hoschton is pronounced Hoosh tun; sorta rhymes with whoosh...
Im in NH and remember hearing about the Dixie Mafia.
We had a mafia in Boston called the winter hill gang.
Whitey Bulgers group.
When you heard talk about winter hill someone would always bring up the Dixie mafia.
I'm not far from there. I had a buddy who told me his relative started it but I don't remember if he told me a name,I do remember that he said it was around winder and I thought he was wrong because I had only heard of them being in miss. I've heard a few other stories about people being connected to them and I always thought they were lying because I didn't think they had ever been anywhere around here. Now I see I was wrong
Wow, good stuff
Love your podcast, however BUFORD was not murdered he was drunk driving and wrecked.. Do you know his Bac??
Sherriff Pussier died in a solo car accident on his way back from a daughters sporting event. Sad part is she was in a car behind him to see it.
And intoxicated.
Buford pussers death was thought to be an assassination.
She was dunk and hey... Remember, Democrat politicians ran these people off the road like princess Diana. Keep that in mind you ignorant little boy
Any other Chanceys from Winder here? Did you guys also grow up learning about your own family in school?
Are these different than the episodes on Apple Podcasts? The audio seems different.
I thought for sure he'd have put copperheads in that ole car...
