From being better husbands and dads, to hunting, gear, cocktails, and more, we always come at it from a Southern perspective, and we always have a lot of fun.

Watch this episode on YouTube! In this episode of Southern Gentlemen, Chris shares the bittersweet news of his daughter packing up and heading to Texas - what it's like as a dad watching your kid take that next big step, and why it hits a little harder than you expect. From there, the fellas check back in on their March Madness brackets… which, as you might imagine, are not exactly holding up. Confidence was high. Results? Not so much. Then things take a turn closer to home - literally. Chris and Winston unpack a wild local story involving actor Alan Ritchson and a physical altercation with a neighbor… in Winston's own neighborhood. Yeah, really. That leads to a deeper conversation about ego, pride, and how quickly things can escalate when men feel disrespected. The guys talk through the importance of keeping your cool, choosing restraint over reaction, and what it actually means to be strong in moments where things could go sideways. It's a mix of life, laughs, and a reminder that sometimes the strongest move you can make… is walking away. Have a question you'd like us to answer on the show? Maybe a topic you want us to discuss?
