  • When I want to smile

    Sid feels like a kind friend who I could sit down with and have a sweet tea. He is so good at interviewing all kinds of interesting guests. His voice is soothing and calm and warm, and just makes you want to listen more. He brings out the best in his guests and I always enjoy listening, even when I have not previously known his guests. Excellent podcast. Thank you for reminding me how much I love the South! (Ole Miss grad and now back in the Midwest)
