Review of CamForum - Dispatches From Up South

Most of us know Roy Blount, Jr. as a regular panelist on "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me". This episode of the Cambridge Forum gives listeners a chance to hear his extended thoughts on a number of topics, including Southern culture, American Presidents and post-Katrina New Orleans.
This episode has a good shelf life, so consider it for your lectures slot, a holiday or simply to fill part of a local talk show.
Even though this is a stage interview, with audience Q&A, Roy Blount is funny and engaging. Listeners will enjoy learning more about him and what inspires his humor.
The host does a good job keeping the listening audience engaged with resets and attention to audio quality from the audience.
This is an entertaining and humorous half-hour of radio.
