Tar Heel Traveler

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"As a native Tar Heel, I am just as avid a fan of Scott Mason and his 'Tar Heel Traveler' as I was about the late Charles Kuralt's 'On the Road'. I hate to miss even one episode. If you ever meet Scott you'll meet a down-home friend."
--Charlie Gaddy, Former WRAL-TV Anchor "I love Scott's "Mayberry-like" reporting and writing style. His stories are done like a good ol' get-to-know-more-about-you conversation. I thoroughly enjoy the Tar Heel Traveler."
--Betty Lynn, "Thelma Lou" from the Andy Griffith Show "If national news makes you sick, then get well with Scott Mason's Tar Heel Traveler: New Journeys across North Carolina. And if you like your stuff in a Mason jar, then Scott's the man. He packs entertainment, history, fun, and facts into every story he tells. Thank goodness he keeps those stories alive in books! Treat yourself to a great read for the fireside, the beachside, or the bedside."
--Clyde Edgerton, Author of Walking Across Egypt and Papadaddy's Book for New Fathers. "By the time Scott Mason wraps up another episode of The Tar Heel Traveler, I feel as though I've taken a trip back home to spend some quality time with an old friend, sipping on a tall glass of sweet tea, sharing a few happy smiles, some easy talk, a smidgen of local news occasionally combined with a bit of toe-tapping' music and some real mouth-watering comfort food. To top it all off, I know I'm always going to come away with a heart brim full of warm and happy memories. That's a mighty fine gift, Scott ... and I just hope you know how very much all of us appreciate each and every homecoming."
--Ira David Wood III, Executive Director, Theatre in the Park "Scott Mason's engaging delivery and unique knowledge of North Carolina and its roots makes the Tar Heel Traveler the highlight of my evening news. Four nights a week we can count on this charming show to soften the blow of the bad news of the day with delightful stories about people and events "down home." Scott never disappoints."
--Rufus Edmisten, Former Deputy Chief Counsel to Senator Sam J. Ervin's Watergate Committee and Former NC Attorney General and Secretary of State "Scott Mason uses the broad canvas of The Tar Heel Traveler to paint a portrait filled with detailed images of the people and places that give the state both a unique and universal appeal, a reflection of diversity and individuality, a picture that makes those of us here never want to leave and entices others to come here."
--Bill Thompson, North Carolina Author and Storyteller "I and millions of others congratulate and thank you for providing, through your excellent WRAL-TV program, an opportunity to learn about many super-talented artists and creators and their valuable contributions to North Carolina and the world. Thank you also for your new Tar Heel Traveler book, which provides new knowledge about many interesting, educational and enjoyable events and places to visit."
