Seems the show might not have been as truthful as thought.

I always questioned the show as what real moonshiner would show his face on national TV. He would not be out of jail very long as someone would surely say, Oh look it's Billie Bob on TV.

I know there is a place in Gatlinburg that sells legal moonshine, even gives you a receipe to make apple pie moonshine. Um yeah..made some last year...gooood stuff.
I thought this show was recently taped? When they had to cover up the stills for the storm I thought it was the hurricane that just went up the east coast this past year. RIP Popcorn

Well yeah, most all the 'Shiners have moved on to cooking Meth instead. There's a whole lot more money in it. They do it now mostly for fun and to pass the time.

I don't mind sending you guys shine, I just need to make sure I won't wind up in jail...there are a lot of laws regarding shipping alcohol from state to state..
