  • The story of Fonzie Andrade
    Feb 7 2026
    Here's a link to John Archibald's story on Fonzie Andrade. Today's weekend extra episode features the story of an Alabama man who's been deported and left a fiancé and very young child here. His name is Alfonso Andrade. You'll hear him referred to as "Fonzie," which is what his friends and neighbors in Blount County call him. AL.com's John Archibald put together a heck of a story by actually traveling to Mexico and spending time with this man and his family. At the end, John and host Ike Morgan discuss the story and John's experiences reporting it. As an intro, Ike comments on social media and political discourse and shares perspectives that have helped him wade through the muck of politics. Learn more about your ad choices.
