  • Always a pleasure

    When I hear Tommy Tomlinson’s welcoming voice I get excited because I’m going to learn something interesting, likely of great value. I didn’t realize he had a podcast u til a couple of weeks ago. I am delighted as I knew I would be. Just finished his interview with Charles Frazier, it was as I knew it would fantastic. To be honest I for some reason Zi thought James Frazier was a bit of an elitist. Ho wrong I was! Looking forward to the next and the next!

  • Tommy listens so we can hear

    I love SOUTH BOUND. Tommy Tomlinson asks his guests brilliant questions which call for expansive replies, and then - he listens. So we get to hear great narratives from super interesting people. more

  • Great podcast, thanks Tommy!

    I first heard about this show on WFAE, our local NPR station. I’m a midwestern transplant to the south and I love the stories Tommy covers. They paint a picture of the culture of the region I now live in and how it was formed. Highly recommend!
