  • Horse Girls & Hospitals (feat. Cousin-Sister Mollie)
    Oct 28 2025
    Meet Mollie—Landon’s cousin’s sister and our lifelong best friend—bringing peak cousin-sister energy and real ER chops. We compare vintage Barbies to “do not touch” Barbies, relive horse-girl lore (Palomino vs. buckskin), and get way too into hobby-horsing. Mollie shares night-shift truths (including a data-backed PSA about weenie dogs), Landon confesses the four-wheeler/tree incident, and we revisit the family mule Joe Meador— the one and only Mule to make the church prayer list. Also: parakeet enclosures, picnic tables as sleds, and why some IVs end up in pinkies. Housekeeping: See us at Mast General Store (Knoxville) — Monday, Nov 3, 6–8 PM. We’ll be at Dollywood the weekend before—say hi if you spot us. Stock up on ’Twas the Night Before Christmas, Y’all and keep up with everything at LandonTalks.com.

  • I’ll Hold the Bags: Fair Season, Spooky Lakes, and Depression Pie
    Oct 22 2025
    We’re back, y’all. Landon refuses the Ferris wheel (snack captain on the ground), while Kate happily waves from the top. We debrief a joyful Lemuria signing, Landon’s dream-within-his-content visit to the Junior League of Jackson Sustainers (Penny with an “i,” you’re iconic), and everything South Mississippi Fair: TK’s chicken on a stick supremacy, why games are ambiance not obligations, and the case for a designated bag-holder. Then we tumble into Spooky Lake Month—Lake Baikal, the Strid, exploding crater lakes, and the heartbreak of a dying lake—plus the Internet’s latest: Group Seven’s overnight elitism and Joyce’s legendary Depression Pie (is it just Water Pie in a cute dress?). See us at Dollywood soon; Knoxville’s Mast General Store Nov 3, 6–8 PM; and the Kids First Gala in Starkville Nov 22. The new site is live and becoming our podcast hub—tickets and updates at LandonTalks.com. Tell your mama and ’em we said hello.

  • Dolly’s Fine, Our Treat Suite Was Legendary, and Please Wash Your Coffee Mug
    Oct 15 2025
    We kick off with housekeeping: we want a private place for this podcast community to hang out (FB group? Discord? You tell us). Then Sweet Tea: the Great Dolly Scare of 2025—Facebook prayer-request energy meets global panic—ends with Dolly herself saying, “I ain’t dead yet.” Amen. Trip recap: our 14-year anniversary at Camp Creek Inn on 30A—cool rooms, A+ bed, and the glorious Treat Suite (chips, Drumsticks, espresso…danger). Dinner shoutout to Ambrosia 30A (angel eggs with shrimp + bacon marmalade, lobster bisque, the works). Also: surprise fall-break crowds = June-level chaos. History corner returns: last week’s ancient cat poem morphs into an even pettier ancient teen letter chiseled in stone to his mom (“you don’t love me, my clothes are trash”). We use that to dunk on Ancient Aliens—humans built things; stop erasing their brains. Rapid-fire chaos: switching sides of the bed (hard no), “seasoned” coffee mugs (also no—explain yourselves), old water glasses and brain-eating amoebas (somehow Signs is involved), how you pronounce “Vienna sausage” (apparently “Vaini/Viana” exists), and giant pumpkins (different species, 50 lbs/day growth, IV drips, regattas where people paddle them like boats). Bonus oddities: cheese-rolling carnage, butter carving, and elite sandcastle builders. Calls to action: Drop us your petty/relatable ancient history stories and your town’s weird competitions (pumpkin regattas, catapulting, butter art). Tell us where this community should live so we can actually talk back. Rate & review (do it again tomorrow, it helps). Book plug: Landon’s new Christmas book is out now—stocking-sized, cozy, with Aunt Charlotte’s sweet potato pie recipe. Jackson, MS folks: book signing at Lemuria this Saturday. Tell your mama’n’em we said hey.

  • Cats, Coyotes & Christmas (and Other Organisms We’re Arguing About)
    Oct 8 2025
    We start on the couch in peak “sweatshirt-around-your-waist” weather and immediately detour into big news: Landon’s new Christmas book is out—tiny enough for a stocking, cozy enough to read on repeat, and packed with Southern glossary gems and Aunt Charlotte’s sweet potato pie. Then we spiral (as usual) into the Organisms Episode: indoor vs. outdoor cats, why our dog Kobe Bryant smells like trouble, the twin goblin kittens (working names: Jack Black and Earl Grey), and a free ad for the Litter-Robot because we’re not living with open poop. We hit caracals (hard no), “how many coyotes could you fight,” rainforests as life-eating engines, the oldest trees, Pando the aspen super-organism, whether fascia beats skin for “largest organ,” and a quick taxonomy fight that ends with ancient cat poetry. Plus: Southern Living’s Illuminations in Charleston—tell us what demo you want to see—and the newsletter in our Linktree has all dates because the AI knows our schedule better than we do. Dogs, we love you. Cats, you own us.

  • One Serving of “This or That”: Southern Style Y’all
    Sep 24 2025
    Landon and Kate are back on the Cozy Couch for an episode full of laughter, nostalgia, and tough choices. The main event? A Southern-style “This or That” game that dives into phrases, traditions, and quirks of everyday life—from highfalutin vs. putting on airs to haint blue porch ceilings vs. red doors. Along the way, they touch on birthday statistics, snailfish discoveries, and what it really means to relive a perfect day. It’s warm, witty, and a reminder that sometimes the small conversations are the ones that stick. Landon is coming to a city near you soon!

  • Paging Dr. Landon: Time for Your Wake Up Call
    Sep 17 2025
    Landon and Kate are back on the couch diving into everything from crime documentaries that can’t quite stick the landing to their nostalgia-fueled ER binge. They unpack what makes journalism both vital and messy, share their personal struggles with mornings and wake up calls, and even debate which TV dramas get hospital life right. With humor, candor, and a lot of curiosity, they explore why waking up—literally and figuratively—is one of life’s biggest challenges! Landon is coming to a city near you soon!

    Sep 10 2025
    Fall might not be here just yet, but Landon and Kate are already in full faux fall mode — scarves inside, apple vs pumpkin debates, and cinnamon everything. From comedy shows in Atlanta to champagne sabering at the Intercontinental, they share their latest adventures, including an unforgettable guest appearance at Amy Brown’s stunning home. The conversation shifts from laughs to jaw-dropping documentary talk with Unknown Number: The High School Catfish, where the twists left everyone stunned. Then it’s nostalgia time as they dive into a rewatch of ER, revisiting shocking moments, favorite characters, and debating who fans loved to hate. Finally, Landon and Kate wrap things up with a fun round of This or That — from awkward elevator chats to the perils of hitting “reply all”. Pull up a seat on the couch and join them for fall vibes, wild stories, and plenty of laughs. Landon is coming to a city near you soon!
