Weird Appalachia Love, Lard, and Language

Love, Lard, and Language S2E5



Living in Rural Appalachia, we’ve got a few things in abundance; sass, grease, and freakin’ talented people!

In this episode, we are joined by the one and only Misty Skaggs, Misty is an Appalachian proud poet and visual artist with a style that is all her own.

In the Episode:

  • Misty’s book “Biscuits and Blisters”
  • Being part of 3 living generations of female artists
  • Badass women in Appalachia
  • Dying Appalachian customs
  • Misty’s very resourceful writing and art practices
  • A reading of the poem “Grease”

A big thank you to Tim Smith and Heather Oney!
