A Special Episode from The Broadside: How Y'all Conquered the World

/

Hi! Stephanie here. It’s been a while since you’ve heard from me, but as we get close to Thanksgiving, I want you to know that I’m thinking of y’all, and I’m thankful for every one of you who listen to The Southern Fork. I’m working hard over here in the background making podcast plans and interview itineraries for 2024, but in the meantime, I wanted to share with you a little audio treat -- an episode of The Broadside from WUNC. Since you’re subscribed to The Southern Fork, you might like to check it out too, and this particular episode covers one of my favorite words: y’all and how it’s become a part of culture beyond the South. It’s a short listen for a big subject, and a perfect partner while you’re commuting this next week, or prepping those appetizers for your Thanksgiving table. I wish you all a great holiday and I hope you enjoy The Broadside.
