    STRAW MAN # 1

    Posted in: Blog

    JOHNNYCOLT interviewed Darryl Carpenter, the man who came up with the idea of using hay to absorb oil. ‘Darryl is a great example of an individualist and a man that’s self-sufficient. He’s a creative thinker that’s come up with a couple of great solutions,’ Colt said.

    All Darryl Carpenter wants is BP and the Coast Guard to give him a chance!

    In this episode of LIFE ADDICT…
    Johnny Colt interviews Darryl Carpenter.

    Darryl has become a YouTube sensation. His idea for using straw to clean up the oil spill has put him at the forefront of creative solutions for BP’s epic oil disaster. Colt (recently in Florida after visiting Grand Isle) had the opportunity to catch up with Mr. Carpenter and talk in depth about the oil spill, his ideas for solutions and the well-being of the Florida coastline.

    MARSH in a MESS

    Posted in: Blog

    CNN producer note
    Former Black Crowes and Train bassist JOHNNYCOLT of Atlanta has been traveling around the Gulf Coast with a crew, observing the toll of the oil spill first-hand. He went through Hazmat training and collected samples from a bay in Grand Isle, Louisiana, on Saturday. He and his family have been vacationing in the Gulf for 20 years now. ‘One of the things that stood out most to me was the resilience of Cajun culture. I didn’t expect to walk into a cohesive community. I didn’t expect to walk into such an epic disaster.’
    - zdan, CNN iReport producer
