Nashville’s freemasons

The most elusive and exclusive club in Nashville stopped by Studio A to share what it really means to commit to freemasonry.

When you think about freemasons, your mind might wander to the founding fathers. Then, you might feel a shiver down your spine and wonder why you sense the eerie presence of Tom Cruise.

It turns out, that all of that fear and cult association might be misplaced. Today, we go straight to the source: two freemasons from our very own West Nashville Phoenix Lodge. With host Khalil Ekulona at the helm, we’ll demystify freemasonry and fraternity.

This episode was produced by Elizabeth Burton. Special thanks to the West Nashville Phoenix Lodge. 

Guests: 

• Warren Steury, freemason and media producer
• Ryan Turbeville, Master Mason and realtor
