Welcome to “The Front Porch,” where we tackle the tough issues facing Appalachia in the same way you talk with your friends sitting on the porch.
WVPB Executive Director Scott Finn serves as host, joined by Laurie Lin, a conservative lawyer, columnist and rabid “Sherlock” fan, and Rick Wilson, a liberal columnist and avid goat herder who works for the American Friends Service Committee.
An edited version of “The Front Porch” airs Fridays at 4:50 p.m. on West Virginia Public Broadcasting’s radio network, and the full version is available at wvpublic.org and as a podcast as well.
Share your opinions with us about these issues, and let us know what you’d like us to discuss in the future. Send a tweet to @radiofinn or @wvpublicnews, or e-mail Scott at sfinn @ wvpublic.org
The Front Porch is underwritten by The Charleston Gazette Mail and its CGM smartphone app, providing the latest headlines, traffic, weather and more. Check it out: https://www.wvgazettemail.com/
