In this episode, Chris and Winston sit down with Nick Weaver, co-founder of the legendary custom denim brand Blue Delta Jeans. Nick shares the story of how he and his partner, Josh West, started the company from scratch, why they chose the "build it slow and build it right" approach, and how they've grown Blue Delta into one of the most respected names in American-made denim over the past decade. They dig into the ups and downs of entrepreneurship, lessons learned from scaling a premium product, the power of relationships, and what it really takes to create something that lasts. Nick also opens up about life off the road — how he works to be a present husband and dad while juggling a demanding travel schedule, and the intentional choices he's made to keep family first even while the business keeps growing. And because you can't have a Mississippian in the room without bringing it up… they talk a little Ole Miss football, too. It's a fun, honest, and wide-ranging conversation with a Southern gentleman who has lived the grind and kept his priorities intact. Tune in and enjoy.
