Love HCR. Love The Hometown Holler. Thank you.
Good episode. I hope you can have him back and get his take on the recent election results.
I always learn something new and get introduced to interesting people! Must listen for anyone who wants to understand what’s actually going on in North Carolina.
Here’s a holler to y’all and a hat tip to the drawl from Raleigh via RoCo (I grew up between Eden and Reidsville). I’m glad to have discovered your podcast, recommended to me by some like-minded friends. Keep up the great work!
Found y’all on YouTube since HCR is my go-to these days. What an excellent interview and I can’t wait to hear when she comes back (hopefully to visit us in NC) and reads the Lincoln letter. Keep up the good work and Nolite te bastardes carborundorum!
