On this West Virginia Morning, we debunk treatments for the common itchy rash that comes from poison ivy. For Inside Appalachia, Folkways reporter Wendy Welch spoke with two health professionals about where folk cures and mainstream medicine for the affliction overlap.
We also bring you part of a premiere broadcast of Mountain Stage, recorded on the campus of George Mason University at the Hylton Performing Arts Center in Manassas, Va. From that performance, slide guitar star Cristina Vane’s “Make Myself Me Again” is our newest Song of the Week.
West Virginia Morning is a production of West Virginia Public Broadcasting, which is solely responsible for its content.
Support for our news bureaus comes from Shepherd University and Marshall University School of Journalism and Mass Communications.
Maria Young produced this episode.
