Since the inception of Discovery Channel’s Moonshiners in 2011, the show has gained massive popularity among audiences.

For the most part, viewers are drawn to the show due to its lighthearted way of depicting the livelihood of moonshiners producing illegal booze in South Carolina, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Virginia. 

With lots to lose from illegally producing liquor and exposing it on TV, we’d hope cast members are duly compensated for giving audiences a good spectacle. 

Some of the show’s cast members have filmed for several years, so fans are curious about their salaries and whether they make a fortune. 

So we decided to look into each cast member’s salary, and here’s what we found out. 

Josh Owens

Arguably, the reality series quickly became popular due to fan-favorite Josh Owens’s cool persona. Apart from being one of the most popular cast members, he also banks a considerable amount from the show. According to reports, the approximately makes $100 000 annual salary from Moonshiners. 

His total net worth is about $400 000, which he acquired from acting, racing, and, of course, Moonshiners. With such a steep salary coming in, you’d bet he has no time for personal life or love though it has been rumored that he’s with a North Carolina native.

Steven Ray Tickle
