So it’s finally time for the Dr. Phil Show to air. The blog, iDivaMemphis, wrote about the appearance this week along with a flattering mention of Sex in the South. Pal TJ Deeter also mentioned the show on his ultracool must-do blog, Localist.
Linda Caillouet’s Paper Trail column in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, also mentioned the show. Since their website is complicated and based on registration, here’s what Linda wrote:
“An item here a few months ago mentioned that Little Rock-based freelancer Suzi Parker, formerly a reporter at this paper, was scheduled to appear soon on the Dr. Phil show.
Parker’s segment – originally set to air in mid-October – was bumped by the breaking Britney Spears-lost-custody-of-her-kids news.The latest? The segment has been rescheduled to air today at 3 p.m. on KTHV, Channel 11. (What is it with Dr. Phil’s fascination with Britney, anyway?).
The topic of today’s episode is suburban swingers.
Parker’s contribution? One of the chapters in her 2003 book Sex in the South features some
Benton residents who are, to steal a line from a Seinfeld episode, “into it.”
In recent years, Parker has made something of a cottage industry out of writing about sex, both in her book and in various online and print publications.”
And thanks to Lindsey Miller on the Rock Candy Blog who said the book had the “best cover ever.”
