Jason and Brent are joined by McCracken County Library historian Nathan Lynn once again, who brings along some new photos to discuss - this time of 1950s people and places in the Paducah area. They focus especially on the first buildings at our own West Kentucky Community and Technical College. You can check out more many images at our Instagram account.
