Each week, Sid Evans, Editor in Chief of Southern Living, sits down with musicians, chefs, and other Southern icons to hear the stories of how they grew up, what inspires them, and why they feel connected to the region. Through honest conversations, Sid explores childhood memories, the family meals they still think about, and the intersection of food and music in their lives. Always surprising, always engaging, Biscuits & Jam is a celebration of the South—and the people who are moving it forward every day. New episodes every Tuesday.

Brian shares an extraordinary firsthand account of that morning, the inexplicable moments that saved his life, and the man he helped rescue in one of the most powerful stories of survival and humanity you’ll ever hear. Brian was on the 84th floor when Flight 175 struck just floors below him. From hearing voices guiding him to choosing a stairwell that wasn’t engulfed in flames, this conversation reveals the smallest decisions that made the biggest difference between life and death. David, who lost his own father in the North Tower that day, brings personal vulnerability to the dialogue — making this not only a survivor story, but a deeply human exploration of fate, loss, and resilience.
