Homegoings

Myra Flynn

Bobby Hackney Jr. grew up thinking he knew his dad’s musical story.Years later, a song at a party changed that—revealing that his father, Bobby Hackney Sr., had been part of Death, a 1970s Detroit band now recognized as an early force in punk.In this episode, father and son sit down to talk about music, family, and what it means to discover a story that was always right there.

We're talking soul-to-soul, and you're invited. In every episode, host Myra Flynn invites you to eavesdrop on candid conversations with people who will challenge what you think you know.
