Trillbilly Worker's Party

This episode is like a vulgar noirish video game. It ends with me and Matt starting a new religion that has its own theme song and everything. But you've gotta listen through the first hour of the show just to find out about it!! Good luck!!

The original trio holes up in a log cabin in the woods to plot their next move.

Scott Benson (@bombsfall) drops in to answer a burning question: what was it like to be straight edge in medieval times? Jk this episode is mostly about his killer video game, Night in the Woods. Enjoy!

Special Trillbillies West Virginia correspondent and folklorist Emily Hilliard and Jacobin Magazine contributor Cathy Kunkel got some great interviews with striking teachers in West Virginia, and so we present them to you here as a demonstration of what organized labor and direct action looks like in the Mountain State.

For our latest episode, we welcome back Sarah Jones (@onesarahjones) of the New Republic to talk about her recent piece on the legacy of Billy Graham (the preacher, not the wrestler) in light of his recent death. We also talk about how the paranoid style of American Evangelicalism brought us to this current moment, and how Graham helped usher that in and bring it into the mainstream.

The kentucky wildcats won last night so this episode makes a lot more sense in hindsight. Like, the themes and shit.

Tarence and Tom are super professional, with the absolute best internet connection speed in the podcasting game. Elizabeth Catte (@elizabethcatte) stops by to tell them about her new book, What You Are Getting Wrong About Appalachia. Happy Valentines.

We're back. It's a new semester. Nick Offerman was in town shooting a documentary so he stopped by to ask us some questions while we pitched him on some great and brilliant tv ideas. Don't steal them please.

Season finale featuring R.L. Stephens. Enjoy.

If you can make it through the first 20 minutes of our mindless rambling about the Reformation and Nonprofit-Speak, Elizabeth Catte has some good insights on a recent Reuters article about miners and coding.
