We do tend to be a little country on the show. Hence the hee haw of the 21st century but folks were from Texas! what do you expect? We are into the cowboy poetry, good ole fashioned texas dance hall music, some gospel, christian ministries and interesting people doing interesting things!
Tamara's Score:
You are 80% REAL Texan!!
You're way more Texan than average. You're parents were probably from here too. We're glad to have you. You probably go to the border for Christmas shopping and are well versed in BBQ, Mexican Food and .. well thats pretty much it.
OK, so although Ive only lived here 4 years, Ive learned enough about it to fool the average texan... now if i could just get that accent down, Id have it made!
Ralph's Score:

You're way more Texan than average. You're parents were probably from here too. We're glad to have you. You probably go to the border for Christmas shopping and are well versed in BBQ, Mexican Food and .. well thats pretty much it.
Ralph mumbled something about not caring about fishing peirs and Austin politics... lol... I think we both missed the same questions! (and really the reason i know so much about texas is I get to sit across the desk from the best history teacher in the world - Ralph!)
Music
Texas Dance Hall, Western Swing, Cowboy Poetry and Southern Gospel, bluegrass, old country.
Here! Go listen for yourself... we will be playing all the great artists that we have on the show!
Note to Artists: If you play this genre of music and would like to be included on our playlists... and your not there yet... just contact us!
We do also use the live365 library and radiosubmit.com to find new artists to play. You may want to look into submitting your music on those sites.
One other note to the artists we play. Live 365 has a direct link to where the listeners can buy your cds from Amazon.com. I know it stinks that it just sends them to one place, but i have noticed that most of you do not have your CD's there for sale and people who click cant buy your music!
Movies
Some video of some of our favorites! You will have to hit pause on the blogtalkradio program to stop our show that is playing to hear them! lol... but be sure to go back and listen to the show!
Baxter Black - The video on youtube isnt embeddable but this is a link to a great interview with him: ..click here
Fletcher Jowers - Jan 18th show!
Woody Woodruff - Jan 18th too! (and i love this poem, it was the first that i ever read of woody's!)
Television
Who has time for TV?
Heroes
I know we agree on this. Our ancestors are our heros! Their determination, their hard work, it has created a legacy for us...
The Ralphs Backporch Show is getting ready for the show. Ben Crane, Michael Hurwitz, and Marvin O'Dell! Come join us www.blogtalkradio.com/ralphsbackporch
We are a podcast radio program that airs twice weekly. Yep... thats us, Ralph and Tamara! We are the owners of NuTrader.com and we now have the Ralph's Backporch Radio show!
..
How did all this get started? Well, a while back we decided to send our NuTrader users an email, you know to remind them to go back and update their ads. Well, Ralph being the creative one started blabbering in these emails about old time stuff that he remembers, included a few jokes and sometimes talked some politics. Well... people LOVED the emails! We assumed they wanted more of Ralph and is infinate wisdom... we then found Blogtalkradio and voila! We had a way for yall to get more of the old cowboy.
Well, it took him a while to get me to talk with him, but I am on there now too. He says he can't shut me up now.
Really, Were just having fun with the show. Weve had some great guests on it and are looking forward to more. Its just a good ole fashioned western, cowboy, nostalgic radio program. It is a call in swap shop, it is the hee haw of the 21st century... well, its what yall make it because the callers and guests are really what make the show!
