What this episode covers
The romantic notion of rural life as a modern escape is a farce. Rural life is hard—historically and now, but for different reasons. Back in the day, the work was endless, and survival counted on it. Thank goodness for the women—check out their hours compared to the men! Today, the implications of where rural communities stand are serious. Join me and historian Megan Birk to dig into rural life and all its beautiful complexities.
