In this episode of The Dillard Files, the stories keep coming with unforgettable tales of family chaos, childhood drama, and small-town survival. Thurl recounts the story of Rheta’s birth and the wild arguments over baby Fisher. You’ll hear about Aunt Jo’s diphtheria, donuts for the first time, and the time Jo got shoved off the barn ladder by Fisher. From paper dolls and fire at Thanksgiving to storm cellars, sleepwalking, and “Ole Ruth” the milk cow, this episode is packed with humor, heart, and a bit of danger—including multiple fires and a good ol’ fashioned whipping. Hold on tight—this one’s a ride.
