Governor made you an honorary Mississippian. Now over the next few weeks, I'm gonna be tellin' you all about two towns in particular in the central part of the Magnolia state. The city of Meridian and my hometown of Philadelphia. I recommend that you visit my hometown and, when you do, stop number one is the historic train depot. The depot now serves as the visitor's center for the city. You'll find some mighty nice people there to tell ya anything you might want to know about the area. And maybe suggest some several things for ya to do. The depot also happens to be a stop along the way for the famous Blues Trail Marker signs that run throughout the state. You'll find a marker there honoring my friend Mr. Otis Rush. Speaking of friends, Constance, one of our dearest friends. My friend and yours, the Sultan of Goodlettsville, the most popular man in country music, ladies and gentlemen, the ole Tennessee Slicker. How 'bout a hand for Leroy Troy. Come here Troy boy. There he is. Hello, buddy."
Leroy: "Howdy."
