Molly asked McCracken Poston Jr.:

I saw you on American Justice, probably when the episode was close to new, and never forgot your name because it was so unique. When browsing giveaways I immediately recognized your name and the association and case behind it. All this time later, could you tell me the history behind your unique name?

McCracken Poston Jr. Hello! Because I am McCracken, King Poston, Jr., I have to take you back to 1923 to a modest house in Middle Tennessee, when my father was born. My grandmother, who named her other three sons John, Doug, and Cal, looked at the tiny baby and worried he may not live. When the doctor came by, he also prepared her that her tiny infant would probably not make it through the night. She unloaded a bunch of family last names on the poor kid, to honor those families, thinking they would be soon on a tombstone. My father rallied and lived for 85 years, and the last of his six children, and his only son!
