In this episode of Biscuits & Jam, Sid Evans sits down with actor and comedian Josh Mancuso, the creative mind behind some of the internet’s most hilarious SEC football parodies. Josh talks about his journey from a childhood in East Tennessee to viral fame, where he’s perfectly captured the quirks and passions of college football coaches and fans across the South. A die-hard Tennessee fan, he shares the story of his first viral video as “Coach Lance Decker,” his lifelong love for the Vols, and what it’s like to have his videos recognized by the actual players and coaches. Plus, Josh reflects on what it means to be Southern and the time he wrote a song with country star Walker Hayes.
