Gone South is a weekly podcast series about crimes that are, in one way or another, Southern. Each episode contains its own story, usually told by the person who committed the crime, the person who solved it, or both. In telling these stories, writer and host Jed Lipinski encounters insights not only about crime and The South, but about human nature.
Previous seasons of Gone South include:
Season 1: Who Killed Margaret Coon?
Season 2: The Dixie Mafia
Season 3: The Sign Cutter
Gone South is an Audacy original.
