Thanks to my good friend Bob Beatty at Long Live the ABB for the opportunity to talk about a wide range of subjects related to music, Civil War history and memory, and public history. Bob has been a huge supporter of my work over the years. We have so much in common and our scholarship and online writing overlaps in so many different ways.

This conversation pretty much comes down to two friends having a good time and talking about subjects that we care deeply about.

Give it a listen.

And if you are a fan of the Allman Brothers Band, check out Bob’s wonderful book about his favorite band on the planet.
