About this listen

 The word "folk" conjures up people rocking back and forth in cane bottom chairs and dipping snuff, and though that's an admittedly enviable lifestyle, it's not the whole story. The early folk song and folktale collectors were largely from "off" and belonged to an avantgarde circle of artists, socialists, and bohemians, in short, renegades. Our new series, the Renegades of Folk, takes a closer look at these men and women of the early 20th century who did so much to save the culture and folkways of the Ozarks, not through rose-colored glasses, but as they actually lived. Join Curtis and Hayden as they discuss Vance Randolph, patron saint of the Chronicles and our first Renegade of Folk!
