Discover the food, fashion, linguistics, culture, holidays, and traditions of the American South with Viral sensation and TikToker Landon Bryant (@LandonTalks).

In his debut book, BLESS YOUR HEART: A Field Guide to All Things Southern (April 1, 2025; Running Press) Landon discusses everything you’ve ever wanted to know about the South, including why they say the things they say, why they eat the things they eat, and what it really means when someone says, “Bless your heart.”
