Hi everybody and welcome to Fiddle Dee Dee, a

00:00:04.219 --> 00:00:08.080
Gone With The Wind podcast. This podcast is just

00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:11.560
going to be all about Gone With The Wind. It's

00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:14.740
going to be about both the novel and the film

00:00:14.740 --> 00:00:17.960
and pretty much any other topic, related topic,

00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:22.429
that comes to my mind. So a little about me.

00:00:22.550 --> 00:00:26.489
I first read the book when I was 19 years old.

00:00:26.769 --> 00:00:29.530
I had seen a little bit of the movie when I was

00:00:29.530 --> 00:00:31.750
younger because my mom really liked it and she

00:00:31.750 --> 00:00:34.310
always had it on. So I would watch bits and pieces

00:00:34.310 --> 00:00:36.810
of it without really understanding it, even though

00:00:36.810 --> 00:00:39.630
I always thought it was really interesting. And

00:00:39.630 --> 00:00:43.170
then when I got older, I finally read the book.

00:00:43.210 --> 00:00:46.329
Now here we are several years later. I've reread

00:00:46.329 --> 00:00:48.979
the book and I've gotten into it again. And I

00:00:48.979 --> 00:00:51.520
don't really have anybody to talk about it with.

00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:55.380
I mean, I have the internet, but I really want

00:00:55.380 --> 00:01:00.200
an outlet just to kind of talk about random things

00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:03.420
that I've discovered about it that might be too

00:01:03.420 --> 00:01:07.299
rambly for just a random chat online. So this

00:01:07.299 --> 00:01:10.959
podcast is just going to be a way for me to kind

00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:14.060
of spread my love for this piece of work and

00:01:14.060 --> 00:01:18.829
talk about it as much as I possibly can. I'm

00:01:18.829 --> 00:01:22.310
assuming each episode is kind of going to take

00:01:22.310 --> 00:01:26.790
on one of two flavors. One is going to be kind

00:01:26.790 --> 00:01:29.750
of analyzing the story and the characters and

00:01:29.750 --> 00:01:32.370
the plot and things like that. And then another

00:01:32.370 --> 00:01:35.930
version is going to be me talking about actual

00:01:35.930 --> 00:01:40.920
history of both the book and the film. I really

00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:44.219
love the story in both. I prefer the novel in

00:01:44.219 --> 00:01:46.900
terms of story, but I am also absolutely fascinated

00:01:46.900 --> 00:01:50.299
by the making of the film. So I plan to talk

00:01:50.299 --> 00:01:53.900
about that a lot too. But regardless, if you're

00:01:53.900 --> 00:01:58.260
here, welcome. I don't know if anybody besides

00:01:58.260 --> 00:02:01.140
Gone with the Wind fans who have already read

00:02:01.140 --> 00:02:03.719
the book will have any sort of interest in this.

00:02:05.609 --> 00:02:08.569
Like I said, it's just kind of a way for me to

00:02:08.569 --> 00:02:14.129
talk about my current obsession. So let's get

00:02:14.129 --> 00:02:14.449
started.
