All the Appalachian channels beat anything on the wretched, filthy Television of today. I love them. Let's face it how many episodes of Bonanza, Andy Griffith, and Gunsmoke can you watch over and over and over? These channels are better than anything Hollywood can conjure up to be sure.❤👍👍

I also love all of the Appalachian mountains stories. I'm from Western NC mountains in Haywood County and am very proud of my heritage. My grandma talked about the Doctor of our town back in her times. Growing up a doctor still came to my grandma's house if anyone was sick. My grandparents, mom, dad seen The Doctor (Sr), I saw him and his son (Jr) and the wife of his son. Wonderful people.

This reminds me of my grandmother’s always telling us about the mountain remedies that got her through this or that sickness. She was happy for modern medicine but she always swore (when our illnesses weren’t too severe and she would try to tell us to do this or that as a cure instead of “spending unnecessary money on expensive and unnatural ‘medicines’”) by the mountain remedies of her childhood.

@@TheAppalachianStoryteller - I love science of virtually every kind. But I'm also a fairly adept herbalist and good enough bush doctor (brother was Army medic) to keep myself out of the tlc of modern medicine *most* of my life So I was delighted when my beloved scientists figured out why the tree frog wound remedy does work! (Forget burying a dishrag under the back steps to keep your mil away - mine was from hell and I had to run her off physically .... but as Brent Terhune says, I digest ... ) When you tie Froggy belly down over a wound, he thinks he's under attack himself and therefore exudes a natural antibiotic from his belly for his own protection. When he stops wriggling, that means he's given up so then you need to find yourself another frog to continue the disinfecting. I follow several popular science outlets from professional sources, so this isn't any kind of mumbo jumbo. But it amuses me no end when formal science verifies a time-honored and extremely effective home remedy. Pioneer types didn't have access to even the best established medical care of their era; so they had to know their stuff or die before their time. It was that simple.

I grew up in the Appalachian mountains in W. V I always enjoyed listening to my grandma tell me stories about the way she grew up in the mountains

The stories told on here have floated around since they happened. Luckily folks have passed them down, telling them around the stove or fireplace after dinner, or around the campfire while camping or fishing. Now the Appalachian Storyteller has researched them and is getting them beyond the community that they've been confined to for years. Thanks J. D.

A side note, what beautiful music. Irish traditional music at its simplest and best is quite similar. Jigs and reels, and occasionally a polka. No singing, that’s a bit different. Fiddles, concertina, tin whistle, maybe a flute to be fancy. There’s probably some interesting historical link, but I don’t know. Thank you.
