This new series broadens our focus beyond public lectures, becoming an immersive celebration of the rich and diverse culture of the Gulf Coast Region that aims to deepen our community’s connection to its unique history and culture.On Thursday, January 23, 2025, please join the College of Arts, Social Sciences, and Humanities for the inaugural Gulf Coast Culture Series event, True South: A Conversation with John T. Edge, at the Museum of Commerce in downtown Pensacola.
Join us for an engaging talk with John T Edge, host of TrueSouth on SEC Network, ESPN, and Hulu; columnist for Garden & Gun magazine, founding director of the Southern Foodways Alliance; author of the memoir House of Smoke (September 2025); and author of the critically acclaimed The Potlikker Papers.

It’s the perfect start to a series that’s all about celebrating what makes this region such an extraordinary place to call home.
