Description:

On this West Virginia Morning, two committee chairs: Del. Adam Burkhammer, the chair of House Human Services, and Sen. Jason Barrett, the chair of Senate Finance spoke with Curtis Tate on Thursday's episode of The Legislature Today. They spoke about the most pressing issues in their committees, including foster care and the state budget. Here’s a portion of that interview.

And West Virginia has plenty of cryptids, including Veggie Man. Veggie Man helped inspire an upcoming zine from the Frank and Jane Gabor West Virginia Folklife Center at Fairmont State University. Bill Lynch spoke with the center’s director, Lydia Warren, about Veggie man and the zine for the latest episode of Inside Appalachia.
