Hi everybody and welcome to Fiddle Dee Dee, a
Gone With The Wind podcast. This podcast is just
going to be all about Gone With The Wind. It's
going to be about both the novel and the film
and pretty much any other topic, related topic,
that comes to my mind. So a little about me.
I first read the book when I was 19 years old.
I had seen a little bit of the movie when I was
younger because my mom really liked it and she
always had it on. So I would watch bits and pieces
of it without really understanding it, even though
I always thought it was really interesting. And
then when I got older, I finally read the book.
Now here we are several years later. I've reread
the book and I've gotten into it again. And I
don't really have anybody to talk about it with.
I mean, I have the internet, but I really want
an outlet just to kind of talk about random things
that I've discovered about it that might be too
rambly for just a random chat online. So this
podcast is just going to be a way for me to kind
of spread my love for this piece of work and
talk about it as much as I possibly can. I'm
assuming each episode is kind of going to take
on one of two flavors. One is going to be kind
of analyzing the story and the characters and
the plot and things like that. And then another
version is going to be me talking about actual
history of both the book and the film. I really
love the story in both. I prefer the novel in
terms of story, but I am also absolutely fascinated
by the making of the film. So I plan to talk
about that a lot too. But regardless, if you're
here, welcome. I don't know if anybody besides
Gone with the Wind fans who have already read
the book will have any sort of interest in this.
Like I said, it's just kind of a way for me to
talk about my current obsession. So let's get
started.
