Game of Thrones, Hillbilly Style

It’s Thanksgiving week! Let’s take a break from politics and talk pop culture. 

In “Game of Thrones,” siblings Cersei and Jamie Lannister enjoy a loving and suportive relationship. But Front Porch host Laurie Lin can’t get past the “ick” factor.

Host Rick Wilson is rooting for the zombies in “The Walking Dead” – why?

And, what is the perfect coal Haiku?

Find out these answers, and what “Hillbilly Nerd Talk” is! In this Front Porch podcast.

Welcome to “The Front Porch,” where we tackle the tough issues facing Appalachia the same way you talk with your friends on the porch. Subscribe via iTunes
