We got lots of ground to cover on this episode! We’re gonna be talking about why we’ll never stop loving the South and many of the things that we learned from this podcast.As many of you know, we started this show 6 years ago this week. November of 2018! We’ve come a long way in terms of our podcast. We have a better format, flow, editing, sound, yes, we still say “um” and get things wrong from time to time, but overall we are really, really proud of the last 255 episodes. We’ve covered SO MANY aspects of Southern Culture. And now, it feels as though the time has come to tie a bow on this project so that we may say yes to other things that we feel we are being called to or that we simply want to give space to, so that we can be called to. We’ve put our heart and soul into this show. We hope you feel that. It’s been a true labor of love. I’m not sure you all will ever know how much we think about the podcast or how many hours it takes to set up, record, edit, post, share on socials, etc. but it’s been so worth it!We had fun sharing our &#39;learnings&#39; with you on this episode, and we hope you will continue to stay curious about the American South and seek beauty here. We believe you&#39;ll find it.Peace Be With Y&#39;all!-Lainie and Laura Beth Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a> Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>

We wanted to take time to address how to walk out your relationships and hospitality head on before the election results are tallied. How we do those things practically do not change dependent on circumstances or election outcomes. Join us at the table as we discuss how we plan to do this. This particular episode is going to feel a bit more built on our Christian faith because that is the only way we know how to walk out loving people who think differently than we do. Honestly, we don’t have a lot to offer on how to walk this out practically other than leaning in to our Christian faith on how we can have the mind of Christ. Mentioned in this episode:<ul><li>Read The Sermon on the Mount - The Beatitudes. (<a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&ei=KT0pZ4DfNL-PwbkP2pH00QU&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiD21hdHRoZXcgNTogMy0xMDILEAAYgAQYkQIYigUyCxAAGIAEGJECGIoFMgsQABiABBiRAhiKBTILEAAYgAQYkQIYigUyCxAAGIAEGJECGIoFMgUQABiABDIFEAAYgAQyBRAAGIAEMgUQABiABDIFEAAYgARItx1QAFjHG3AAeAGQAQCYAdQCoAHtE6oBBzIuNy40LjG4AQPIAQD4AQGYAg2gAswUwgIEECMYJ8ICChAjGIAEGCcYigXCAgoQLhiABBhDGIoFwgINEC4YgAQYQxjUAhiKBcICEBAuGIAEGLEDGEMYgwEYigXCAgoQABiABBhDGIoFwgINEC4YgAQYsQMYQxiKBcICDRAuGIAEGLEDGBQYhwLCAhAQABiABBixAxhDGIMBGIoFwgIREAAYgAQYkQIYsQMYgwEYigXCAggQABiABBixA8ICDhAAGIAEGJECGLEDGIoFwgILEAAYgAQYsQMYgwGYAwCSBwcwLjguMi4zoAeLuwI&oq=matthew+5%3A+3-10&q=matthew+5%3A+3-10&rls=en&sca_esv=9d271e88b2da67d8&sclient=gws-wiz-serp&sxsrf=ADLYWIKvk2JRJO6Vzy1rdDhXEXnLTS39iQ%3A1730755881869&uact=5&ved=0ahUKEwjAl6CM0MOJAxW_RzABHdoIPVoQ4dUDCBA" rel="nofollow">Matthew 5: 3-10</a>) Our friend Pastor Glenda Sutton says, this is the attitudes we need to Be In!

Every region has its own culture of music, dance, food, language, faith expressions, and more. With the fast pace of life these days, it takes intentionality to keep those aspects of culture alive. Here in Franklin, Tennessee, we have someone keeping square dancing and clogging alive. Join us at the table as we sit with Tommy Jackson to hear about his Rocky Top Revue.Tommy Jackson is a native of Franklin, Tennessee and has literally been dancing longer than we’ve been alive! He formed the Rocky Top Revue in 1982 and they’ve made numerous appearances on the Grand Ole Opry, The Ryman, music videos, opened for Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton and George Jones, and won numerous competitions. Every Sunday afternoon you will find him teaching free dance lessons on the old courthouse steps in downtown Franklin, Tennessee.  Southern dancing episode: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/steel-magnolias-podcast/id1442852139?i=1000433491925" rel="nofollow">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/steel-magnolias-podcast/id1442852139?i=1000433491925</a> Find out more about the Rocky Top Revue: <a href="https://www.rockytoprevue.com/about-us" rel="nofollow">https://www.rockytoprevue.com/about-us</a> Steel Magnolias Podcast is an independent show funded solely on support from listeners like you and a few advertisers from time to time.Are you enjoying the show?

Southern writers are at a bit of an advantage in that we have a powerful sense of place, but mostly we know characters. We ARE characters. We come from families, neighborhoods, churches, and kinfolk that are the stuff you think is made up, but only slightly. We love an embellished story. We are storytellers. To be southern is to be a good storyteller. Join us at the table as we discuss male southern authors. We already did an episode on female southern authors.

&#34;Any discussion about American music that doesn’t include Muscle Shoals, Alabama isn’t really a discussion at all.” That’s a direct quote from the website of FAME STUDIOS. We had a chance to visit Muscle Shoals and the 2 studios that stayed undercover for most of the 60’s and 70’s while legends came to record with a producer and a rhythm section that should be household names. Join us at the table as we discuss the music of Muscle Shoals.If you’re a big Lynyrd Skynyrd fan you may have caught the name Muscle Shoals in some lyrics, but you may have NEVER EVER heard of this place and that’s ok.

Located on the sea islands of South Carolina and Georgia are communities of people who are descendants of enslaved Africans. They have a unique culture that is directly linked to West Africa. In South Carolina, this group of African-Americans and the language they speak are referred to as Gullah, and in Georgia they are called Geechee. Many historians believe the word Gullah comes from Angola a West African country from which many of the slaves came. Another idea is that Gullah is from the Gola, a tribe from the border of Liberia and Sierra Leone West Africa, although the exact origin of the word is not known most historians agree that the Gulla people and their language have African roots us at the table as we discussed this piece of southern culture Mentioned in this episode:<ul><li>Our interview with Lynette White of the Plantation Singers can be found as part of our Charleston episode on “Have Love, Will Travel” <a href="https://www.accessmore.com/pd/Have-Love-Will-Travel-" rel="nofollow">https://www.accessmore.com/pd/Have-Love-Will-Travel-</a></li></ul> <ul><li>Try Benne Crackers!</li></ul> <ul><li>We recommend Marsh Hen Mill for Carolina Gold Rice (or Grits!)

If walls could talk, the Steel Magnolia Bed &amp; Breakfast in Natchitoches would have hundreds of stories to tell. The home is located in Natchitoches, Louisiana where the writer of the play, Robert Darling, originally grew up. The 1989 film was shot here in this very small town and today the central home to this story is run as a bed &amp; breakfast. Can you imagine Sally Field, Shirley McLaine, Julia Roberts, Olympia Dukakis, Dolly Parton and Daryl Hannah all coming to your very small town? Today, Natchitoches has a population less than 20,000. Named after a Native American tribe, Natchitoches (pronounced Nack-a-tish ) is the oldest permanent settlement in the Louisiana Purchase Territory. Since 1927, they have been home to one of the oldest community-based holiday celebrations in the country, and today their annual Christmas festival lasts 6 weeks!
