Original and needed

This podacast is original and fills a big gap in the podcasting world . What I can't believe, is that more people don't support Meg and Drew on Patreon. C'mon peeps!

Love This!!

I can’t say enough good things about this podcast. It is funny, it’s informative, and best of all it’s comforting. There’s nobody better to convey Southwest Virginia and Appalachian culture than people ACTUALLY raised in it!

Workin on my 'hill cred'

Love listening to Meg and Drew's take on all things Appalachia. From Appalachia in the media, to up and coming artists, to social justice in Appalachia, to the interesting interviews with people from Appalachia--I'm hollerin about episodes 19 & 20 especially when they spoke with the great Ricky Cox--they cover a variety of topics and are always entertaining. Shamefully just now writing a review, but have been listneign since January. I love that they donate to a cause after receiving reviews, too. All around 5 stars. Go listen!
