Today we’re going to share, from our MountainLore website, a tale of ghosts, spirit possession and evil that happened to a young radio disc jockey and his girlfriend in a house they were renting in Knoxville, Tennessee, in the early 1990’s. This is a true Appalachian horror story, told by one of the people who lived through it.

Thanks for listening.

This month we talk about the Highlander fire; then we discuss the connection between Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Appalachia; that leads us to politicians in general; finally, there’s apparently another ghost loose in the podcast studio.

We appreciate you listening.

Today we thought we’d share with you another MountainLore tale. This one is a traditional Jack tale, in which Jack overcomes his brothers’ treachery, animal attacks and a witch’s guile to end up with a beautiful wife and a fortune. Jack has all the luck!

We hope you enjoy.

Here’s a link if you’d like to buy “Woody’s World.”

We’re working on our March episode of the My Appalachia podcast, in which we’ll be discussing the written word and interviewing an author with roots in Appalachia about his new book. We’ll also be jumping into the controversy around Hillbilly Elegy and the response to it, Appalachian Reckoning. Look for that in the next week or two. In the meantime, we wanted to share with y’all the latest MountainLore tale, “Joash and the Woodbooger.” Enjoy!

Hello folks…for our February episode, Steve and Gena take a look at some, shall we say, offbeat things in Appalachia, including petrified witches, mummies, and other assorted things.
