About this episode

This episode honors Rita R. Layman, the host's mother, who tragically passed away.

It's been a while since we've released a show, but the weather held us down in January, and just when we were about to get back in the thick of things tragedy struck our family. Rita R. Layman, mother of host Billy Riddle was killed in a tragic accident while on vacation in Florida. So this show is to honor her, and the people in Florida who brought some Appalachian goodness to us in our worst moments. Thank y'all for sticking around. We should be back on track soon.
