Southern Charm, Storytelling, & Life - L...

Dr. Vonda Wright
About this episode

In this episode of 'Hot for Your Health,' Dr. Vonda Wright sits down with Landon Bryant—a Southern storyteller and social media sensation. Known for his viral "let's discuss..." monologues that hilariously and insightfully unpack Southern culture, Landon began his storytelling journey as an acclaimed art teacher with a flair for education. His wife’s suggestion to share his wit online sparked a meteoric rise to fame. Whether he's exploring the nuances of grits or recounting tales of "Walmart High School," Landon brings a magnetic authenticity to every story he tells.

In this episode, we dive into Southern traditions, from the charm of crawfish boils and boiled peanuts to the extravagance of homecoming mums and Easter hats. Landon also reflects on his childhood, marriage to his childhood best friend, and the importance of community in shaping identity. He offers a heartfelt perspective on embracing small-town life and finding humor and meaning in everyday moments.
