    Great Podcast! Where can I get M. Dewitt’s audiobook??????
    This is a great podcast and looking forward to more episodes. I am an audiobook guy and want to listen to Michael’s “Fall of the house of Murdaugh” if possible? I’d assume he would have this book a bit more printed since many people like him and the podcast members. Love you all! Looking forward to hearing the book. Even a Becky read and sold her audio book which made me buy quick. Bam! Bought. Let me know if there is an option on a certain platform? Thanks and keep it up.

    Episode 10
    Just listened to the Bull Street episode. Great job as always. Also, did you know the movie Chattahoochee from 1989 with Gary Oldman and Dennis Hopper was filmed there.

    “I’m sure the Bible tells us a lot about temptation and sin, so you’d think that the Reverend would kind of be on guard for that, but apparently not.“ This is just about the best sentence I’ve heard on a podcast in a very long time.

    Episode 12 Possum
    This episode made me laugh and brought back so many memories of my Papa. He talked about eating possum all the time when I was little. His dad Bill Powell was the Chief of Police in Calhoun Falls and he also made moonshine back in the 40’s till the early 60’s. I love hearing how things were back then.

    Enjoying this so much!
    I grew up listening to stories from my older relatives in the south, so this feels like home to me. If you love great stories, you’ll love this. Going to get Michael’s book ASAP!

    Great New Podcast
    Enjoyed meeting Michael at his book signing in Hampton & love the new podcast! I even got my husband listening!
  • $putter$
    Great
    We already loved Matt and Seton from their podcast and Michael is a fantastic addition. He has such a way with words and he uses his talent to weave us through history.
  • GracieEsq
    Wonderful
    You will be pleasantly surprised by this podcast ! It’s great content and the perfect format -Michael’s writing is very engaging & starts every show, then it’s loosely scripted so it’s much more than rambling (thanks Seton), but there’s enough flexibility so the hosts have spontaneous conversations. Great job team !
  • J. Fitz.
    Great true crime!
    Love the show, it’s very well done!
  • Nickelfish21
    Love Michael
    More Michael, way less of the other two please. Making fun of amputee’s is totally disgusting.
  • lasifantas

    Authentic
    As a SC native, i love hearing these stories. It’s part of our history and told in a respectful way. Keep them coming.

    Love This
    I am from a small town in Georgia a few hours away from y’all—. We vacation in the low country every year. This pod cast has completely caught my attention!! I love it!!
  • lutherrose
    Enjoy as much as Impact of influence
    The first show was great. I enjoyed the fact that all of you went through the three Murdochs. It gave a much needed insight to how Alex Murdoch would have been raised. It would be really cool if Mr Dewitt could interview Alex about his childhood and how they influenced his life.
  • Sharpenmom!
    It’s Shari from Mount Pleasant again
    Hey guys- great job on The Wicked South. I guess i need to eat crow!! I truly enjoyed both episodes and gave you a 5!
  • RabunMtnGal
    Love it!
    As a Southerner with Low Country roots, I appreciate hearing this unvarnished history, and having someone knowledgeable tell it. It’s a great listen, and I look forward to a long run!
  • MarinesLady
    Great Expectations for The Wicked South!
    The trailer and first episode were terrific. No one can tell stories like Southerners! I have older cousins all over Tennessee who can prove it. Not to mention we’ve already heard from Mr. DeWitt numerous times in recent months — he’s got the delivery, vocabulary, intellect, and education, and an affection for the Low Country to make The Wicked South both charming and insightful. I’ve been a fan of Matt and Seton since they started with the Murdaugh situations in 2021. Collaborating with Mr. DeWitt is icing on the cake! Wishing you all the best, and look forward to some delightful and fascinating episodes with a refreshing twist for Low Country podcasts :)

    Review for Wicked South
    Hi, I live in Virginia but I love all stories south and Mr DeWhitt is a wonderful storyteller. I grew up in a very historical part of the state and we literally drip Revolutionary War and Civil War. I am 77 years old and had never listened to a Podcast until my daughter sent me Impact of Influence and I got absolutely hooked on the Murdaugh saga. My family has spent many summers in Sea Pines, Charleston and Savannah so I feel somewhat connected. Keep up the good work as I look forward to each new episode. Seton and Matt y’all are awesome too.
  • Born in Carolina
    Informative and entertaining
    Absolutely loved this podcast and can’t wait to hear more. Michael is journalist as well as a Hampton local and historian. Who better to tell the real story of the history of the Murdaugh family. Excellent!!
  • Melcie69
    Not Long Enough!
    This was so entertaining! The hour went by too quickly. Definitely left me wanting more, can’t wait for next week.
  • roeroe112
    Great story by a great historian!
    Looking forward to hearing more stories from the low country!
  • EasternNC
    Very much looking forward to this podcast.
    I’ve been listening and closely following the Murdaugh saga since the summer of 21. I look forward to hearing more of the tales from Michael Dewitt. He has always struck me as the man that is there to be the one to tell the stories.
