Old Kentucky Tales S2, Ep8: The Super Bowl of Corn Shucking

By Frederick S. Church and James H. Moser [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons

In this episode of Old Kentucky Tales, we will look at the words of Abraham Lincoln in our Rock the Quote segment and, for our Main Event, we will examine the intense sport of 19th century corn husking.

Listen for our Fake History Sponsors for this episode: 1958 Electric Company and a 1926 Will Rogers cigarette ad!

And a big thanks to Sound Engineer Todd Birdsong and WKCTC's Paducah School of Art and Design.
