    As a young Nashville native, I can’t believe it took me so long to discover this podcast! Tony Gonzalez is such a delightful producer. I loved hearing him speak about how part of this show exists to “pull back the curtain, just a little bit, on the journalistic process” for curious listeners alike. How special to explore our city’s fun, weird history during a time when it is becoming redeveloped beyond recognization. I ❤️ NPR
