Hal kills it weekly on the "Wilburn Brothers Show" which is carried by RFD-TV. Check your local listings.

The band plays at least one instrumental per show and Doyle and Teddy banter with the guys, specifically singling Hal out for his chops. In fact, Hal gets most of the camera time and appears to be the bandleader.
