Real stories, real people. This one-hour storytelling program is filled with true-life adventures of people past and present from Jonesborough, Tennessee, and the surrounding Southern Appalachian Region. Each program presents stories built around a common theme. All of these stories, which are collected from the hills and hollers, and sometimes up in the Mountains of East Tennessee, are scripted into a show that explores the culture, heritage, and history of these diverse voices. Home to the town of the first Abolitionist Newspaper in the Country. Home to the state that made Women’s Suffrage a reality. Home to Warner Institute, training Freedmen and Women as teachers beginning less than a decade after the end of the Civil War. Surprising, heartwarming, and often hilarious stories of the independent East Tennessee people come to life in this podcast with a voice and accent that can be found nowhere else.

Jules Corriere, Anne G'Gellers-Mason

Shanks, Jr., Becky Poteat Simms, and many more. They provide a glimpse into life on Main Street when horses were more in fashion than cars.  Others remember the coming of electricity in the late forties and fifties out in the county; the fortitude it took to live off of the land; and for some, like the Bean family, and in particular, Russell Bean, how hard living sometimes hardened the heart, as recalled by his eight-times great-grandson, Jonathan Edens.
