A national catastrophe could be near, with a shortage of collard greens. We talk about this and its potential repercussions. You can read the source article here. Then, we discuss a NYT piece about the "Napa-fication" of Kentucky, with bourbon tourism. It's particularly a fun read, because it focuses on Chris and Will's friend Dixon Dedman of Kentucky Owl. You can read that piece here. Then, they discuss a potential Bigfoot sighting in East Kentucky. Check that out here.
