On this West Virginia Week, we hear from West Virginians protesting federal cuts to staffing and funds. Plus, we’ll look at legislation to arm teachers in classrooms across the state and have reaction to the dismissal of a long-standing lawsuit against West Virginia’s child welfare system, and if you have a cryptid story to share, the West Virginia Folklife Center wants to hear from you!
Maria Young is our host this week. Our theme music is by Matt Jackfert.
West Virginia Week is a web-only podcast that explores the week’s biggest news in the Mountain State. It’s produced with help from Bill Lynch, Briana Heaney, Chris Schulz, Curtis Tate, Emily Rice, Eric Douglas, Jack Walker, Maria Young and Randy Yohe.
