In this episode of Appalachian Livin’, Lindsay, Elise, and Tom sit down with the Appalachian Oracle—a kindred spirit we first met on TikTok and clicked with instantly. What started as an online friendship has turned into a real-life bond built on shared values and curiosity. The Oracle is working on her dissertation about Appalachian culture, and together we chat about everything from society and people to what makes the Appalachian experience so unique. From traditions and identity to how our region ties into the bigger picture, it’s all on the table in this conversation.
