| 1/17/26 | 84) Almeda Riddle, Ozarks Balladeer with Just Heath | Featuring a guest appearance (and song debut) by our good friend and podcast theme song composer Just Heath, we discuss the life and legacy of Almeda "Granny" Riddle, a lifelong collector and singer of ballads. Also, five dudes without any real ethnomusicology background try to discuss the lasting influence of folk music in the 20th century. And, just so everyone knows upfront, the joking around gets a little more sophomoric than usual https://maxhunter.missouristate.edu^Here is the link to the Max Hunter folk song collection owned by Missouri State University, and mentioned in the episode. Highly recommended if you have any interest in folk music and/or Ozarks culture | — | ||||||

They tell us their origins, both as people and as business partners, and the pros and cons of opening a private business in a public space, among other things. After the interview, Jameson guests on a standard script about the salt industry during the frontier days of Missouri. We talk about salt a lot. And do an awful lot of bad math | — | ||||||
| 11/22/25 | 80) Lizzie Rubart Gibson - Fruit Modeler | This week we talk about Lizzie Rubart Gibson, a woman who received international acclaim for her clay model fruits, used in science classes across the country. We also discuss an old Harrison Boys stomping ground in Pilot('s) Knob. Gus's computer is dying so in case you think something is wrong with your listening device, it's actually on our end. Song at the end was composed and recorded by our very own Ray. It's called "Pilot's Knob". Find more and dadweight.bandcamp.com | — | ||||||
