Guests: Bill Helms, Kris Maher

Marshall County Sheriff Bill Helms will join me for the first hour of the show to discuss a number of different topics, including the latest trends in criminal history, the issues concerning ATVs and side-by-sides, the increased rate of Covid infections, and we’ll also talk about his deputies go about welfare checks in the most rural parts of the county.

Kris Maher is a reporter for the Wall Street Journal and he has written a book titled, “Desperate: An Epic Battle for Clean Water and Justice in Appalachia,” which details the issues that have taken place in coal communities across the state of West Virginia. We’ll discuss the book and the battles that have taken place over jobs, clean drinking water, mine conditions, and the abrupt closures that have taken place through the years.
