The sisters visit with Austin Thompson of the Way Down Wanderers. Often referred to by fans as one of the hardest-working, hardest-touring bands on the circuit today, the 5-piece Illinois-based act not only proves that classification with their jam-packed tour schedule but also on stage every night, with youthful exuberance and a lively stage show, asreliable as it is infectious. High energy percussion, mandolin, guitar, bass, banjo, and fiddle weave seamlessly together to create an experience for fans that has sold out shows across the UK and the United States, filling the front rows with fans not just singing along to one tune, but singing along to all of them. “Everybody says it. We'd be nothing without our supporters. Yeah, they buy tickets and of course we love that, but when we've been on the road for 10hours and walk onto a stage road weary and we see familiar faces singing along, it's hard to describe. It's everything, really. There's a whole lot of love there.” Music enthusiasts are not the only ones taking note. Critics and tastemakers alikehave awarded the young artists an impressive number of accolades ranging fromofficial showcases at AmericanaFest (2018) and International Bluegrass MusicAssociation (2016) to Whitstable UK Session of the Year (2017), a BBC ScotlandSession (2017) as well as Finalist, International Song Writing Competition(2015 & 2016), Chicago's Best Emerging Artist, Deli Magazine (2014) andSongpickr's Best Songs Spotify Playlist (2016) among others. The young men areno strangers to the festival circuit either, having played major National andRegional Festivals such as Merlefest, Summer Camp, Red Wing Roots MusicFestival and Saskatchewan Jazz Fest all across the United States, Canada andthe UK. The band has also graced the stage of coveted venues such as BluegrassUnderground (TN), The Fox Theater (CO), Park West (IL), The Vogue (IN) TheStation Inn (TN) The Gramercy Theater (NYC), and countless others.

Martha's Vineyard once was a place you could gossip with neighbors, shop for supplies, or play a cutthroat game of cards — all without saying a word. That's because it had a thriving Deaf community. Residents, Deaf and hearing alike, communicated with a unique version of sign language that predates ASL. But it's mostly forgotten today. Today we dig into Martha's Vineyard Sign Language (MVSL) and the folks who are working to keep its history. * On the Very Special Episodes podcast, we tell one incredible story each week.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the main event. The greatest botany rivalry in history! It's Vavilov vs. Lysenko for the fate of the Soviet Union. In the 1920s and '30s, Nikolai Vavilov was a big deal. He was studying seed genetics and learning how to prevent famines. Everyone wanted to work with him. Including a young kid named Trofim Lysenko. Lysenko studied with Vavilov. They were friends. But years later, Lysenko turned on his mentor, and turned against science. This became a problem, because Lysenko was good buddies with Stalin. The feud would bring the Soviet Union to its knees. And it would force Vavilov to make a fateful choice: one between the truth … or his life. * Very Special Episodes is a new podcast with a simple premise: we tell one incredible story each week.

One year ago this month, the unthinkable happened in Raleigh. Five people were killed and another person was critically injured after witnesses say a teenager opened fire on a greenway at the end of the workday. The suspect, 15-year-old Austin Thompson, was also wounded. It was expected that his case would ultimately move from juvenile court to superior court where he would be charged as an adult. As of Tuesday afternoon, this has not happened. WRAL reporter Chelsea Donovan joins me to bring us up to date on the case. https://www.wral.com/21079817/

We talked about a ton of stuff in this one including being mistaken for Darrius Rucker, wanting to have a stat associated with his name someday, watching cooking shows, liking AJ McCarron, search engine optimization, why he decided to start putting out content, plus much more.

In local news, my favorite event of the year happened this past weekend, and I wasn't home to see it! For those of you who were, Banner Elk hosted the 45th annual Wooly Worm Festival across a beautiful fall weekend, reports the Appalachian. The Wooly Worm fest is a yearly event where wooly worm fans flock to the High Country from all around the country in order to celebrate the coming of winter. It's kind of like groundhog day, but with the winner of a wooly worm RACE determining how long the season will last. This year's victorious racer is named Porta Potty, after the porta potty near which he was found, says Emma Denton, a 3rd year Appalachian State student and the owner of the winning worm. Denton will bring home a $1000 cash prize, while Porta Potty soaks up the glory. Congratulations to both! Statewide, and in serious news, the parents of the recent Raleigh shooter have issued a statement according to the Associated Press. Alan and Elise Thompson confirmed on Tuesday night that one of the five victims of the Thursday shooting was Austin Thompson's brother sixteen-year-old James. “Our son Austin inflicted immeasurable pain on the Raleigh community, and we are overcome with grief for the innocent lives lost,” the two said. As the Raleigh community grieves, the investigation into the cause of the crimes is ongoing. Nationally, Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West, has been sued in a $250 million defamation lawsuit by the family of George Floyd, reports NPR. Ye had appeared on the podcast “Drink Champs” and falsely claimed that Floyd had died from fentanyl use, rather than at the hands of his murderer Derek Chauvin. “Drink Champs” issued an apology for the episode and took it down, while Ye has remained silent on the suit thus far. There is a debate about the validity of the lawsuit considering Ye's first amendment right to speech and complications regarding defamation without a living plaintiff, but proving such a case is not impossible, as seen recently in the Alex Jones Sandy Hook trials. We shall see. Finally, the weather as ever from Boone Weather DOT COM. The high is sitting at a brisk 44 degrees today with a low of 27… that's a chilly one! Stay warm, Boone.

Salutes from siblings are special because you just know that younger brother or sister really looks up to their proudly serving sibling. And if it's an older brother or sister sending it in, then they have a different kind of pride in their "kid" brother or sister doing something really important. Today we salute Austin Thompson of the United States Army. Austin's older brother Cody Thompson sent this salute in to me. Austin has been in the Army for just over a year now and Cody says he's like a different guy already. Cody is so very proud of his little brother Austin. He wants him to know that the whole family loves him and is proud of him. He also wants to say that the whole family loves all of our troops. Austin has made a huge commitment to himself and to the nation. He's serving in the Army so that his brother and his family can continue to enjoy their freedom. Earning the respect of his older brother? Well that’s just a bonus. Today we salute Austin Thompson of the United States Army.
Could Fitz be the next “Tiger King”? Drew says it’s every “What the Florida” story all rolled into one wacked out show. In the What Are You Kidding Me stories, it’s International Waffle Day and Fitz has an adorable Waffle House song, another idiot is arrested for coughing on people and telling them he has coronavirus, the Spring Break kid who said Coronavirus wasn’t going his partying is apologizing and a woman is showing people how to repurpose old bras into facemasks. Fitz’ kids are still not allowed back in the house due to their iffy COVID behavior around his pregnant wife so he’s considering a listeners’ offer of an RV in his driveway. In the Hourly Bulletin, a WSP Trooper has been is killed and Congress approves a Coronavirus relief package. It’s “Taco Time” and P1 Katrina wins a $25 Taco Time Gift Card. Fitz and Claire update us on their search for Toilet Paper. In the Fitz Files, Prince Charles has Coronavirus, we hear why Steve Carrell left “the Office” and how Tony Soprano almost took over and Matthew McConaughey has more advice for us all. In the Good Stuff, a talented high school student makes a virus-themed musical medley that’s gone, well, viral and an elementary principal arranged a drive-by parade for a 5-year-old student whose birthday was cancelled. All Jacked Up covers dog-blaming, “laundry” with strangers, and wrangling employee discounts. Because of You Coronavirus; tell us how your life has changed. Today’s Troop Salute is Austin Thompson of the US Army. We honor fallen Washington State Patrol Trooper Justin Schaffer. Ryder thinks police should use paintball guns to identify people breaking quarantine rules. We take your Coronavirus questions from Social Media – the most popular after toilet paper is how are we gonna get our hair cut!

We often hear stories about fracking that go like this: a gas company comes to a small town, starts drilling wells, and then terrible things start to happen. People get sick. Water burns from taps. Earthquakes ruin houses. And the climate will soon be destroyed. But, is fracking really a disaster unfolding? To find out, Science Vs speaks to Prof. Robert Jackson, Asst. Prof. Peter Rabinowitz and Prof. Bob Howarth. We’re also joined by Pennsylvanian resident James Hughes and Seneca Resources’ Rob Boulware and Doug Kepler.
