Best of 2024: Books - Banner & Company

What this episode covers

As we wind down the year, we've been looking back at some of our best episodes, and we noticed one common thread between several of our favorite interviews: books. In 2024, those included: a cookbook brimming with both recipes and great stories from the South; a unique and kaleidoscopic look at a musical great; a dive into three still-unsolved integration-era bombings in Nashville; a firsthand account of visiting Tennessee's death row and the people there; a fight for justice in the wake of a historic environmental disaster; and an obsessive consideration of two legendary country music stars. So this week we're bringing you a few highlights from our favorite author interviews of the year. Guests Anne Byrn, author of Baking in the American South Ann Powers, author of Traveling: On the Path of Joni Mitchell Betsy Phillips, author of Dynamite Nashville (and of this unvarnished history of the Banner) Steven Hale, author of Death Row Welcomes You Jared Sullivan, author of Valley So Low Tyler Mahon Coe, author of Cocaine & Rhinestones Host: Demetria Kalodimos Producers: Steve Haruch and Andrea Tudhope Learn more about your ad choices.
