We told you about Ben Vaughn the musician in 2023, then announced his podcast earlier this year. Now, the composer, performer, producer, radio host, born in Camden County 71 years ago, has released the 11^th installment of his podcast series, “Straight From The Hat” with co-host Laura Pochodylo of Sun Records in Tennessee.

Perhaps because he’s new to podcasting, composer-performer-producer Ben Vaughn, born in Camden County 71 years ago, should bring a new perspective to his “Straight From The Hat” podcast. He’s been a radio host but now, every other Thursday night, he’ll delve into his own personal history by having his co-host, Laura Pochodylo, reach into a big hat and pull out names. No pre-planning, no rehearsing, each name will be someone or some band that Vaughn has either met, collaborated, partnered and/or jammed with.
