This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) is taking on the legendary Hatfield-McCoy Feud which spanned generations between two Appalachian families. The stuff of newspaper sensationalism and regional lore, is it possible this all started over a stolen hog? Did the Civil War complicate matters? Or maybe they just needed some more people in this sparse and sprawling farm country. Producer Clayton Early and our new interim Fact Checker Faryn Einhorn join the conversation.  Join our Patreon!
