I reflect on America's 250th anniversary and how our founding principles contrast with how we responded to COVID. I don't pull any punches. The COVID panic was the reason I started this podcast, and to quote the Who, I get on my knees and pray, \"We don't get fooled again\"! Herbs that Heal (Catholic) Home Remedies to Forage and Grow by Judson Carroll , Stephen Cunningham https://sophiainstitute.com/product/herbs-that-heal/?oid=853&affid=281 Also, I am back on Youtube Please subscribe to my channel: @judsoncarroll5902 Judson Carroll - YouTube Casey Jones or Ben Dewberry..... etc. I show you how to play Mississippi John Hurt's version of \"Casey Jones\" on guitar. This is my favorite version of this folk song that has been played countless folk, blues, country, bluegrass and rock musicians, spanning the 1800s through the Grateful Dead and beyond. I also do Jimmie Rodger's \"Ben Dewberry\", which is another version of the same song, and I get a chance to play my 100 year old long scale Hohner Marine Band. So, by the end of it, I've done the song in two keys, in probably 10 different styles and even reharmonize the chords into a jazz version! https://youtu.be/yvxoDB6ymKc Email: judson@judsoncarroll.com Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/southern-appalachian-herbs--4697544/support Read about The Spring Foraging Cookbook: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2024/01/the-spring-foraging-cookbook.html Available for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRP63R54 Medicinal Weeds and Grasses of the American Southeast, an Herbalist's Guide https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2023/05/medicinal-weeds-and-grasses-of-american.html Available in paperback on Amazon: https://w…","meta_description":"This will be among my most controversial podcasts.
