“The Journey Memphis” eschews glamorized tales of microwave success and Instagram-perfect photos. Rather, it unspools the ups and downs, twisted and turns of the trajectory of these gentlemen. There is no straight or narrow or neat path. It’s oftentimes messy and not pretty at all because that’s not how any of this works!
