Martin Luther King: You Were the Greatest American
Original Air Date: April 6, 2008 AudioLink_2008_0406
Show Category: Race
Show Description: This week marks the 40-year anniversary of the tragic, and premature death of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It got me thinking. I don't think there is a single other American that was more important and influential in the 20th century. Join the conversation as we look at what it meant to challenge America to live up to what it desired to be, and the man behind that challenge.

Take Allen's Poll
Are America's Best Days Behind Them?
Yes. Everyone should be buying gold.
No. Everything will return to normal.
Not sure yet. I am waiting and seeing.
Allen's Top Five 5 BBQ Restaurants
1. Tucker's BBQ in Macon, Georgia. Unbelievable food. Words cannot describe.
2. Fincher's BBQ - Macon, Georgia. Why does Macon have such good BBQ?
3. Ole' Timer BBQ. Rome, Georgia. Great food but check out the BBQ Turkey. One of a kind.
4. Sprayberry's BBQ - Newnan, GA. Barbecue is good, but the Brunswick stew and onion rings are divine.
5. Shane's Rib Shack and BBQ - the original on Hwy. 155 in McDonough is superb. Ribs and pulled pork!
