    Love love love Landon’s talks and the discussion in the comments. I am from the Northeast, but have lived in Texas for 30 years. Still learning all in ins and outs of Southern talk and quirks. The comments are a wonderful space for connecting. Please please start a podcast where you go deeper into discussions and you read the comments. And please read Southern writers - bedtime stories and long stories.
