Hello folks, welcome to our new podcast! Today we get things started with a ghost story. The Reed Gold Mine was opened during the first gold rush, in Western North Carolina, back in the first part of the 19th century. And the mine needed workers, one of whom was Eugene Mills, whose wife, Eleanor, was more enthusiastic about his working there than he was. And that led to some really bad trouble, which we'll tell you about on today's episode. You can subscribe to MountainLore at Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, or on your favorite podcast app. We're on Twitter @myappalachia and on Facebook @myappalachia...be sure to follow us.

We're also taking a break from the podcast, but don't worry because we plan on coming back soon when we're all rested and ready to go. Thanks for listening!…

Two thirds of the hosts of the podcast are glad to be here to discuss last week's explosions at Eastman Chemical in Kingsport; that turns to a discussion of healthcare and RAM's appearance in Grundy, Virginia; the opioid crisis continues, and we introduce our countdown of the top five drug stories of the week; then we wrap up on a more positive note with news of the newest hiker/biker rail trail to open in the Commonwealth of Virginia, in the southwest part of the state. Lots of stuff this week-we hope you enjoy it.

Hello, folks. Today we tell you about a recent conference on Appalachian stories, genealogy, history and culture that took place at the Breaks Interstate Park in Virginia last weekend, and the concept of "cultural tourism," which can be good, as in the aforementioned conference, or not-so-good, as in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. That leads into a discussion of the importance of Appalachian folk telling their own stories to the world. We also talk about hipster paw-paws, chestnuts, dryland fish, and something called "chicken of the woods." You never know what you get when you listen to us! You can subscribe to the podcast at Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Play or on your favorite podcast app. Thanks for listening!…
Yeah, we know it's been awhile, but sometimes life gets in the way. Whadda ya do? On this episode of the podcast, we take a look at one of the rarest things in the country: listening to each other. We talk about the recent Trump supporters' rally in D.C., at which protesting Black Lives Matter folks were invited to take the stage and explain a bit about themselves. After some initial boos and heckling, the crowd quieted down and listened respectfully to the BLM speakers, with the result being that both sides gained a new understanding of the other. They even shook hands and posed for pictures with each other. A good lesson for the rest of us. Then we talk about the importance of self-reliance in Appalachia, a skill that is sadly lacking nowadays, leading to dependence and despair and, to a large part, the drug crisis. Speaking of drugs, what happens when an individual gets high and goes into an East Tennessee Walmart? A mouth full of bug spray and an arrest for drug possession...we talk about the ups and downs of hornet killer as a party starter! You can subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Play or on your favorite podcast app. We're on Twitter @storyappalachia. Thanks for listening. Promise we won't be gone so long next time.…
With the events in Charlottesville this past weekend, we have decided to take a look back at where we have been in Appalachia, in terms of race. We do this to both show how bad things used to be here, but also as a warning as to how things could become again if we give in to the hateful rhetoric that we heard Friday and Saturday. On this podcast, Rod and Steve present three stories of lynchings and mob violence from Virginia, Tennessee and North Carolina. You can subscribe to the podcast at Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Play or on your favorite podcast app. We're on Twitter @myappalachia...we'd love to hear what you have to say about this podcast.

Hello folks! This week we're looking at the role sports, especially high school football, has played in knitting Appalachian communities together over the years, as we share some of our memories of long ago high school days.

Blair Mountain in West Virginia is the site of a 1921 pitched battle between coal miners and 3000 lawmen and strikebreakers that actually included aerial bombing of the miners.
