After a week off (thanks to Chris’ sickly immune system), the boys are back behind the mics for another round of Southern charm and questionable opinions. Chris and Winston catch up on life - including the curious case of tomato pie (which Winston just discovered is a real thing) and the homecoming of Huck & Birdie, Chris' two German Shepherd pups fresh outta doggy boot camp.

Then it’s time to talk TV. Specifically, the Netflix Original Series The Waterfront. Let’s just say… bless its heart. The Southern Gentlemen give it a fair shake before diving into a spoiler-filled, painfully honest review. You’ve been warned.

Pull up a chair, pour something strong, and enjoy the ride.

In this laugh-out-loud episode of the Southern Gentlemen Podcast, Chris Thomas and Winston Cruze dive headfirst into the wild world of Southern sayings - some charming, some confusing, and some downright bizarre. From "Eatin' onions and tellin' secrets" to "That dog won’t hunt," the fellas unpack dozens of oddball expressions, many of which they’d never even heard before (and they’re pretty dang Southern themselves). It’s a hilarious ride through the colorful language of the South—where folks don’t just talk, they paint pictures with their words.

Pull up a chair, pour a glass of sweet tea, and get ready to laugh till your stomach hurts. This one’s as Southern as grits and gravy.

In this episode of the Southern Gentlemen Podcast, Chris Thomas and Winston Cruze tackle a heavy truth: the world feels angrier and more divided than ever. Folks are shouting, canceling, and clashing over everything—and it’s exhausting.

But what if Southern hospitality isn’t just for front porches and dinner tables? What if it’s a secret weapon for real change?

Chris and Winston dig into how we as Southern Gentlemen can bring kindness, respect, and calm into everyday interactions - whether it’s with your neighbor, your co-worker, or the stranger who just cut you off in traffic. They explore how to lead with grace without compromising truth, and how standing firm in your principles doesn’t mean being a jerk about it.

Pull up a chair, pour something strong, and join the conversation about how to be a man of conviction and compassion in a world that desperately needs both.

In this episode of the Southern Gentlemen Podcast, Chris Thomas and Winston Cruze dive into a curious case of déjà vu in the world of modern country music. Two hit songs—different artists, nearly identical sound. Is it inspiration, coincidence, or something more?

The guys break down the similarities between the tracks and use the moment to explore the formula for a "popular" country song today. They also get into the legal side of songwriting: what can you protect, what can’t you, and how the Nashville machine keeps churning out familiar-sounding hits.

If you’ve ever listened to a song and thought, “Wait a minute… haven’t I heard this before?”—this one’s for you.

In this episode of the Southern Gentlemen Podcast, Chris Thomas and Winston Cruze recap their Memorial Day weekends, then dive into the first two episodes of the new Amazon Prime docuseries Earnhardt, unpacking the legacy, the legend, and the unmistakable mustache of Dale Sr. They talk about what the series gets right, what it might be missing, and what Earnhardt meant to the South beyond just racing.

Then, it’s time to reach into the ol’ Male Bag, where a listener poses the very serious, very Southern question: “Is Buc-ee's worth the hype?” Chris and Winston have a very spirited beaver debate, and we find out which one of them owns a Buc-ee's onesie. ;)
