Captivating from episode one, it’s so well done! In the Red Clay is one of those rare pods where you can close your eyes and feel you are in the Deep South, both presently and back in time, as this wild ride actually occurs, because the narrator is such an excellent storyteller! Added to that, Stoney Birt’s vivid memories of his father and the Dixie Mafia are riveting, yet so wildly fascinating that I could listen to him tell them all day long. This is pod is a must listen, especially if you enjoyed S-Town!
