On this episode of the Our American Stories podcast, Jay Moore shares his family's tale of loss, discovery, and selflessness that will tug on your heartstrings while reinforcing the importance of inter-generational relationships; also, Dr. Mary Stockwell, author of Unlikely General, Mad Anthony Wayne And The Battle For America,  tells the story of one of history's most interesting leaders...who wasn't actually all that mad; and finally, Alex Castle tells the Old Dominick Distillery story which starts back in 1859 with an Italian immigrant and a fruit cart that grew to be one of the largest distribution companies in the South. Add in a Kentucky woman who didn't drink until she was 21 (Alex herself), and you get both the first whiskey distillery in Memphis as well as the first female head distiller in the state of Tennessee since Prohibition.
