The Broadside

Each week, The Broadside highlights a story from the heart of the American South and asks why it matters to you. From news to arts and culture, we dive into topics that might not be on a front page, but deserve a closer look. Along the way, we explore the nuances of our home—and how what happens here ripples across the country. Hosted by Anisa Khalifa, The Broadside is a production of North Carolina Public Radio-WUNC. Find it every Thursday wherever you listen to podcasts.

    Why it's so hard to find a good couch

    Known as the "Furniture Capital of the World," North Carolina is famous for its high-quality furniture. And for over a century, it's been the heartbeat of the American furniture industry. But in recent decades, that business has changed dramatically, decimating the workforce and leaving average American consumers with two less-than-ideal options: high-end luxury products or cheap and mostly disposable mass-produced stuff. Featuring:  Zaki Khalifa, former owner of Zaki Oriental Rugs in High Point, NC Tammy Nagum, President and CEO of the High Point Market Authority Federico Contigiani, President of Hickory Chair Matt Hartman, reporter at The Assembly Thanks to the team at the High Point Market Authority for their help during Market week, especially Ben Muller. Special thanks also this week to NC State Libraries' Special Collections Research Center. Links:  Check out Matt’s reporting on the evolution of North Carolina furniture.

Special thanks goes out to WUNC's Elizabeth Baier.

    The gravestone grudge that changed cemetery law

    If you walk through a cemetery, you’ll see some common phrases on the gravestones. Many of them are used so often, we tend to take these very public remembrances for granted. But what happens when one *really* stands out and contains a false murder accusation? Featuring:  Margaret Martine, local historian and co-owner of Whippoorwill Academy and Village Max Longley, writer and contributor at Atlas Obscura Links:  Check out Max's article for Atlas Obscura and Margaret's story in the Wilkes Journal-Patriot.  You can find a transcript of this episode here.
