Ep 3: Mississippi Myths and Misconceptions

Since y'all can't keep Mississippi name out your mouth, this week we're tackling common myths and misconceptions about our home state. We're joined by Mississippi journalist Brittany Brown who helps us answer if Mississippians wear shoes and whether Mississippi is the most racist state in the union? We share our frustrations, our hopes, and our dreams for this great state.
