We Always Lie to Strangers: An Ozarks Podcast

84) Almeda Riddle, Ozarks Balladeer with Just Heath


Listen Later

Featuring a guest appearance (and song debut) by our good friend and podcast theme song composer Just Heath, we discuss the life and legacy of Almeda "Granny" Riddle, a lifelong collector and singer of ballads. Also, five dudes without any real ethnomusicology background try to discuss the lasting influence of folk music in the 20th century. And, just so everyone knows upfront, the joking around gets a little more sophomoric than usual
