In this special episode Neil and Will reveal a story published by West Virginia Public Broadcasting. Immigrants were a major part of forming what we now know as Appalachia. The guys venture into Wheeling West Virginia to bring a story to life that has been part of the culture in Wheeling for over 100 years. Take a listen as they describe the twist on the Appalachian Dumpling - "The Pierogi!" You might even hear about Neil's favorite olympic sport.
