Today we are looking back at the 1977 film Smokey and the Bandit with Burt Reynolds and Sally Field. We talk about CB culture and my connection to it. CORRECTION: Mom’s CB handle was Honey Bee and not Mama Bee.
“For the good old American life: For the money, for the glory, and for the fun…mostly for the money.” – The Bandit

Some of our favorite parts of this movie are:
- Buford T Justice’s alliterative swears
- When Bandit breaks the 4th wall
- The swanky piping on the pants suits
- The famous East Bound and Down and the story behind it.
- A lengthy driving review
Sadly we lost Jerry Reed on September 1, 2008 in Brentwood, TN
Cool Hand Luke was released in 1967
