What did you think of this episode?

Those of us who grew up in a "holler" know that they can be deep, dark valleys or winding roads between hills. But did you know holler also refers to yodeling, calling, yelling? And if you've never heard "holler down a rainbarrel" you might be surprised to learn what it means. We'll also explore the Americanism "lightning bug" versus the British "firefly." Finally, hear the delightful poem "Spellcheck" by Kentucky author Anne Shelby, about fighting with technology's determination to standardize our dialects.
