The Polyester Man

Polyester

Polyester really is the fabric of The Hillbilly Junction Boys' lives. Its stretchy, comforting properties highlight all of our assets. We mention Polyester in several of our songs, discussions and podcast episodes so it's no surprise we did an entire episode on it. It's not just about the tight fitting magic fabric though. We also named our boat the Polyester Princess and on this episode we're telling some fish tales about that boat and our experiences on the water. Let's see what the two mariners have to discuss in Episode 11, Polyester.

Buh-Reet-O

Have you ever felt out of place, like really out of place? We've felt that many times in our lives, especially when you take these small town boys and add them to the mix of a big city. One time in particular sticks out. Near our destination of Branson, MO, we stopped in Kansas City to fuel up. This was our first solo trip without our parents, far away and in an unfamiliar city. The stories told of that trip, and the other stories we share will have you laughing, and relating. Enjoy Pay Before You Pump, and the Polyster Man Podcast, episode 11.

Sesame Seed

There are certain things that everyone should be aware of. They may seem to be common sense, but some folks have to lear "the hard way." That's why we wrote Stuff You Need to Know. It's a collection of knowledge put down in a song. We share some stories from our childhood, and young adulthood to help you avoid the pitfalls we experienced. Homework? Make sure you know what a cod piece is before you listen.

Beanbag

Driving through a neighborhood late summer after a hailstorm has hit a town you'll often see blue tarps covering the sidewalk, fill your lungs with the smell of tar and wood dust, and hear the sound pop, pop, pop, pop coming from the rooves of houses. That's the sound of a nail gun in the hand of a skilled worker laying down shingles. This episode is dedicated to those who protect your homes from the wind and rain, and the adventures and stories of blue collar workers.

Double Bunk

In a special episode of The Polyester Man, we're joined by our parents for a live jam session of one of our signature songs, "Dance Polyester Man." The Hillbilly Junction Boys were birthed wearing tight polyester pants and it's a theme running through our music and our lives. This is a song about the places we've performed and the stories we have to tell from our experiences with our fans.
