Compositions + Podcasts + Miscreants

About Us

The Alabama Take is a podcast network and a site for essays on movies, music, books, television, games, sports, politics, and culture from a few of Alabama’s best and worst writers, thinkers, artists, and miscreants.

The Alabama Take wishes to be inclusive and welcoming. We embrace additions to our growing list of contributors and podcasters. If you wish to write for the site or produce podcasts with The Alabama Take, let us know. All are welcome to find us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, or simply email TheAlabamaTake@gmail.com.

For our online talk show Short Takes and several of the podcasts in the network, be sure to check out the YouTube channel.
