Deep South Dining: Summer Succotash
Summer is here and today's show is just a big bowl of summer succotash. A little of this and some of that, which we call Mississippi food culture. Malcolm and Carol recap from the Memorial day break and share some moving food memories about Malcolm's brother. Also we talk about Vicksburg's culinary heritage with folklorist Bill Ferris and Joyce Clingan from the Walnut Hills restaurant.
