According to the American Addiction Centers:
"The rate of alcohol use among Native Americans is significantly higher than in other ethnic groups. The rate of Native Americans with an alcohol use disorder is higher than that of the total population. And one in ten young Native Americans (ages 18–25) has an alcohol use disorder.”

What if there were a Native-owned, alcohol-free alternative that not only tasted amazing but was actually good for you?

Could this help our Native communities — and others — who are struggling with substance abuse? And what about those who simply enjoy the taste of wine or beer, but are looking to make a healthier lifestyle change?

Enter Jody Colbert — entrepreneur, founder and president of War Chief Collection, and proud descendant of the great Comanche warrior Quanah Parker.

In this episode, you’ll learn about Jody’s line of non-alcoholic beverages, her personal journey to sobriety, and her deep connection to Quanah Parker. In future episodes, you’ll meet her aunties and uncle and hear even more stories about this iconic figure in Native history.

A couple of important notes:
- Since this episode was recorded two years ago, some exciting things are on the horizon: Jody will be relaunching War Chief Collection with new products in Summer 2025.

- In this episode, Jody speaks of her greatest hero: her father, Sgt. Robert Colbert (Chickasaw, Choctaw, and Creek), a Purple Heart recipient and Marine veteran of the Vietnam War, and a proud member of the Chickasaw Warrior Society. Sgt. Colbert sadly passed in July 2024, and this episode is dedicated in his honor. Yakoke for your service, Sgt. Colbert.

Please keep an eye out for War Chief Collection’s relaunch in Summer 2025: https://www.warchiefcollection.com/

PART 1

On this episode of Native ChocTalk, my cousin, Cheryl and I took a road trip into the heart of Choctaw country to explore the fascinating and little-known history of Tamaha, Oklahoma - a town with stories that are anything but small.

As we meandered along banks of the Arkansas River, we met a local gentleman walking his dogs. That chance encounter led me to Tonia Brannan - an unofficial town historian with a deep connection to the land, the stories, and the Choctaw history embedded in the soil who shares it all with me today.

From early ferry landings of the Choctaw trading points following Removal, to a Civil War steamboat raid led by Confederate Cherokee General Stand Watie, to the very first prisoner of the Tamaha jail, and even the scrappy boxing legend Wild Wilson Dunn, a Choctaw man who claimed to be Osage and once fought Jethro’s dad from the show, The Beverly Hillbillies - Tamaha has seen it all! 

(By the way - know any Choctaws with the last name Dunn? Let me know!)
