RIP Jim Tom. He was a fun guy from what I saw on tv. He was quite the card. I would have liked to meet the guy.
I don't drink alcohol, I drink distilled spirits.
Therefore I'm not a alcoholic, I'm spiritual.

Kidney Cancer. Makes ya wonder how much his 'shine sippin contributed to that.
I still think that there is too much made up bullshit on that show, but that's just me.
Fear and ridicule are the tactics of weak-minded cowards and tyrants who have no other leadership talent from which to draw in order to persuade.

He was an actor . Doubt they actually drunk anything other from a bottle store . LOL

I’m with you Deplorable . Too much made up BS . …. But that sells .

Regardless . A life lost is a lost life . … Cheers and condolences to his family

I did not watch Moonshiners so had to google him. Said he got the part because we was a legend moonshiner and master distiller. RIP!
