Lemme Tell Ya

Episode 1: Opal Whiteley, Oregon's Fairy Princess


Listen Later

In Lemme Tell Ya's first episode, we'll talk about Oregon folklore centered around the diary of one woman, Opal Whiteley, and her complicated legacy. Digressions include the British Royal Family, mental health diagnosis, and whether it's exploitation to launch anyone into fame. 

I highly recommend Benjamin Hoff's book The Singing Creek Where the Willows Grow: The Mystical Nature Diary of Opal Whiteley, available to order on Amazon.
