You’d be ashamed of yourself for being so clueless if you had either the intellectual capacity or self awareness to realize what a midwit you are.

He was one of the best part of the documentary

If have not read his books on the Civil War then you don't fully understand that war.
Also I really do not care for Mr. Burns.

I am sure this is very interesting. I will have to try to find an hour to listen to it Maybe if I have to turn the sound off on tonight’s LSU game or tomorrow’s Saints game.

Really like him
I’m on book 3 of his trilogy
I wish Shelby had done the narration for it
Don’t really care for Grover Gardner. There’s a lack of emotion that Shelby wrote with that is lost in the audio version

Grover is ‘fine’. But it sounds like sitting in a lecture whereas Foote was a true southern storyteller.
Eventually we’ll get an AI version that sounds like him narrating

Second interview with Foote a year later (1987).
