“Holy Jumpers”, an Immigrant girl named Olga, and a shootout between a “revenue posse” and a moonshining family in the hills of Kentucky, all of which have a connection to Effie Waller Smith, the teacher and poet from our last episode. Sally’s favorite Diary was written by Olga, and in this episode we explore the connective threads from Effie to Olga in the Metropolitan Holiness Church and then Effie’s connection to the shootout. You will hear a “colorfully” written newspaper article read by us with a little “extra” added because this article simply demanded more from us– for you!
