Callie and Chuck talk masculinity this week!  Chuck discusses growing up and having to struggle with not being considered "masculine" and Callie discusses her experiences with it and especially with toxic masculinity. We also have Curren Sheldon, an Academy-Award nominated and Emmy-winning filmmaker and photographer based in Knoxville, Tennessee who produced the series "Mountain Grown" for 100 Days in Appalachia, which details the stories of male teens in Appalachia.  We highly encourage you to check it out. https://www.100daysinappalachia.com/mountain-grown/ ALSO, Callie and Chuck discuss Jimmy Buffett lifestyle and the Joe Manchin inflation reduction act, and how it impacts Appalachia. -----------------------------------------------FLOODING RESOURCES: GoFundMe for Isom IGA: https://gofund.me/a6ba2916EKY Mutual Aid Fund: https://bit.ly/3boV4U7Appalshop Latest News & Resources: https://bit.ly/3ORc9n-----------------------------------------------HELP SUPPORT APPODLACHIA!Join our Patreon, for as little as $1/month, and access live events, weekly exclusives, bonus series, and more http://www.patreon.com/appodlachia-----------------------------------------------Timestamps02:40 - Intro: Jimmy Buffett <3's Appalachia06:20 - Campaign Check-in: Inflation Reduction Manchin?21:30 - Announcements (Patreon Limericks!)27:23 -  Masculinity Discussion 58:49 - Interview with Curren Sheldon -----------------------------------------------Check out our wonderful sponsors!CBD and THC gummies & more: (use code "APPODLACHIA" for 25% off) http://www.cornbreadhemp.com/Our website is great, and it’s because Starry Eyes Media built it.  Yours can be too! https://www.starryeyes.media/Transition Music: "Leave it to Me" by Corduroy Brownhttps://corduroy-brown.com/-----------------------------------------------Follow us!-Instagram: http://instagram.com/appodlachia-Twitter: http://twitter.com/appodlachia-Facebook: http://facebook.com/appodlachia-TikTok:  http://tiktok.com/appodlachia-Discord: https://discord.gg/czgUeWzvhT-----------------------------------------------None of the views expressed on this show represent the views of either Chuck or Callie's employers\Send us Fan MailSupport the show
