This week, "Our Common Nature" is a new podcast from WNYC. It features cellist Yo-Yo Ma and producer Ana González, as they explore America and talk to folks like West Virginia coal miners. We follow Yo-Yo and his team as they venture into Appalachia. And we talk with González about meeting people where they are.
We revisit The Wood Brothers’ third appearance on Mountain Stage as part of this week’s encore episode. The trio’s high-energy set includes songs from their exceptional album “One Drop of Truth,” released in February 2018.
They also perform “Chocolate On My Tongue,” a favorite from their 2006 debut album “Ways Not To Lose,” which is our Mountain Stage Song of the Week.
“Over the years we’ve written a lot of dessert songs,” front-man Oliver Wood said while introducing the song, “Wish we could do them all, but inspired by the brownies down in catering, we chose this one.”
