Being a good neighbor in Appalachia can be complicated. It’s a world of unwritten rules where minding your own business is the highest form of respect... right up until it's not. On today's episode, Sam explores the delicate philosophy of the good fence and borrowed sugar; a deep dive into the fierce independence and unspoken bonds that hold a mountain community together.
About Hillbilly Philosophy
Ever wonder if there's more wisdom in an old mountain saying than in a stuffy textbook? Welcome to Hillbilly Philosophy, the podcast that breaks down life's biggest questions with a dose of Appalachian sense.
Hillbilly Philosophy is a no-BS exploration of ethics, logic, and resilience, packed with folklore, storytelling, and usable advice for anyone looking for down-to-earth wisdom to navigate the modern world.
Your host, Sam Goodman, is a native son of Appalachia with a philosopher's soul. Born in the hills of West Virginia and raised in Pounding Mill, Virginia, Sam is a translator, bridging the gap between the world of big ideas and the world of calloused hands. He’s not an academic; he’s a storyteller with a healthy distrust for jargon and a deep respect for the gritty, hard-won wisdom of the mountains. Hillbilly Philosophy is his attempt to bottle the lightning he was fortunate to learn from.
