2026/05/07

It was certainly an eventful week in the Moonshine Capital, and across the country if you can believe that.

He first made local headlines after a ruling by the Virginia State bar for suspending his license for 36 months, a process some citizens are questioning (Check out our Subscriber Only After Show on Patreon). The second time involved a man making his w...

The Appalachian Podcast ·

2026/03/13

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.
