What Does Your Accent Say About You? How Important Is It to Your First Impression? Professor Paul Reed and I Discuss.

University of Alabama Professor Paul Reed, PhD is the Distinguished Teaching Fellow in the Department of Communicative Disorders. Despite the heady title, he’s easy to talk to about accents and the impressions they make on others. I read a quote from him in The Economist magazine and had to reach out. As a guy that travels a lot, I hear many accents and I have been told many times “you don’t sound like you’re from Alabama.” Paul explains where my accent may have gone and why, and what we think about people when we hear other’s accents. Fun, fun conversation.

Bringing a Better Beef to Your Table – Joey Mason of Mason Hills Farms Saw A Need for a High-end, Premium Product

Not being beholden to tradition or industry norms has helped Joey Mason make Mason Hills Farms a premium provider of beef for the discerning consumer. His cattle are grass fed and grain finished on his own farm near Grand Bay, Alabama. Never farming before, Joey has learned the business from the ground up, from how to prepare the cattle to how to process and package them to retain the best flavor in the meat. He’s now selling it direct to the consumer and is adding a line of ready to cook burgers. And with the scraps? A premium dog food. Joey (like his cattle!) is all in.
