All the Appalachian channels beat anything on the wretched, filthy Television of today. I love them. Let's face it how many episodes of Bonanza, Andy Griffith, and Gunsmoke can you watch over and over and over? These channels are better than anything Hollywood can conjure up to be sure.❤👍👍
Thank you my friend !
I agree, as im not from that region i love learning about its past and current ways.
Totally agree!!

This is where I come to when I’m a bit overwhelmed with life and I just want to say thank you because listening to you is very calming . Blessings to everyone with health and happiness 🙏🏼❤🙏🏼
Thank you Betty
All of us hillbillies can put away a bologna sandwich on wheat toast.
lay on the Maters, extra bologna, and mayonnaise
I feel the same way ❤
My Aunt D used to go by betty boop. That's great!
@@jrloftis0719 awe I love this 🌹
I absolutely love the Appalachian storyteller. I was born and raised in Georgia and these stories that you tell they're based on the truth remind me of my family and my grandmother and grandfather my 19 aunts and uncles and all my cousins it was the best time of my life. I greatly appreciate you putting this on this channel so they're all of us could feel a sense of home again. Thank you greatly!
Thank you so much Margaret, I appreciate your kind words and support!
Ooooh, me too! The stories are simply breathtaking. 😊
@@sandi3561 thank you
Amazing stories. I love it.
Am from north east Tennessee
👍
I was raised in on the Cumberland plateau in the Adams, Cedar Hill area. Your stories are from the heart and always bring me back to the place I was raised. Thank You for seeing the good in people who were raised in places who others think are backwards. However, we know the truth of the matter! God Bless YOU!
indeed, these are OUR people and OUR story. I hold my head high and am proud of our heritage. God Bless Appalachia.
Humility is a rare commodity along with Ole Doc. Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Through the love of his grandson Ole Doc found Humility and respect for this young doctor and his new fangled medicine. Cool story, enjoyed.
What a great comment, I love it when the story is interpreted exactly as I intended. Thanks so much James
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller I would like to reciprocate thank you kind sir. That's very kind of you to say. 👍
These are best stories and refreshing to hear about real people and real life! Not the BS on the TV!
Thank you!
Great story. Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you my friend
I also love all of the Appalachian mountains stories. I'm from Western NC mountains in Haywood County and am very proud of my heritage. My grandma talked about the Doctor of our town back in her times. Growing up a doctor still came to my grandma's house if anyone was sick. My grandparents, mom, dad seen The Doctor (Sr), I saw him and his son (Jr) and the wife of his son.
Wonderful people.
❤️
In my neck of the woods we had Ole Doc Douglas. I can't count how many times I was sent to bring him for help when I was a youngen. And he always came running with his bag.
I do miss those days.
I'm never going to these government doctors they've got now.
Awesome story! I can't get enough of this channel. I usually watch movies on TH-cam in the evening. Yesterday, I watched nothing but these stories; till I went to bed around midnight! I may do it again tonight! lol
I love this ❤️
Just love your storytelling, left with a feeling of awe. Love from my heart to yours. Strange how often we can’t articulate what it is we feel, about things like that. One of the wonders of being human.
Thank you Maria, it makes me happy when these stories connect with folks like you. I leave myself vulnerable each time I share one of these stories and brace myself for the worlds reaction. It blesses my heart to know that folks like you listen.
My daddy's family comes from Morgantown, West Virginia. And this kinda gives me a glimpse into what my family was like. Oh, and my husband's family comes from Webster Springs, and Diana, West Virginia.
Thanks for sharing Karen
Me...I grew up near the Northern Appalachian mountains and spent my childhood hiking and exploring those mountains with my dogs. How I worried my dear parents! I'd wake early and sneak out from my crib to embrace my beloved woods and mountains when I was just a wee bite
There's nothing I love more than a good story and you sir are a great story teller.
So glad I found your channel.
Thank you ma’am and welcome! Glad to have you here
Thank you, JD, for this story. Great ending. Kinda reminds me of the Beverly Hillbillies with granny with her doctor bag. Keep them coming.
Thank you sir!
This reminds me of my grandmother’s always telling us about the mountain remedies that got her through this or that sickness. She was happy for modern medicine but she always swore (when our illnesses weren’t too severe and she would try to tell us to do this or that as a cure instead of “spending unnecessary money on expensive and unnatural ‘medicines’”) by the mountain remedies of her childhood.
I grew up the same way
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller - I love science of virtually every kind. But I'm also a fairly adept herbalist and good enough bush doctor (brother was Army medic) to keep myself out of the tlc of modern medicine *most* of my life So I was delighted when my beloved scientists figured out why the tree frog wound remedy does work! (Forget burying a dishrag under the back steps to keep your mil away - mine was from hell and I had to run her off physically .... but as Brent Terhune says, I digest ... ) When you tie Froggy belly down over a wound, he thinks he's under attack himself and therefore exudes a natural antibiotic from his belly for his own protection. When he stops wriggling, that means he's given up so then you need to find yourself another frog to continue the disinfecting. I follow several popular science outlets from professional sources, so this isn't any kind of mumbo jumbo. But it amuses me no end when formal science verifies a time-honored and extremely effective home remedy. Pioneer types didn't have access to even the best established medical care of their era; so they had to know their stuff or die before their time. It was that simple.
Love your voice it’s perfect for the telling of these stories ❤
Thank you so much! ❤️
Love the nostalgic look at life much tougher than today but they thrived
Thank you!
thank you, JD, for this wonderful video! this story mimics the 1979 movie "the incredible journey of dr meg laurel" with Linsey Wagnor, if you have not seen this movie, you will love it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Thank you my friend
Hi JD! Thoroughly enjoyed this story. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed day!
Thank you Willow!
I’m binge watching your channel! I can’t get enough of it. Every story is something to behold.
Thank you Catherine! and this is a great story of how a old time mountain doctor clashed with a young doctor with a "sheep skin" from some school
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller I thoroughly enjoyed this video! ❤️👍🏻
Your stories always have a way of putting me at peace! Thank you for your amazing stories and your story telling abilities! You bring joy to many!!
Thank you so much Jason!
Your stories are making me cry tonight. I'm playing catch up. I've not seen them lately. I've been a little bit on the busy side.
Glad to see you back, hope you enjoy
The world is a better place with you in it. Bless you 🙏 🇨🇦
❤️
I grew up in the Appalachian mountains in W. V I always enjoyed listening to my grandma tell me stories about the way she grew up in the mountains
Thanks so much for sharing my friend!
Grandpa's love , sometimes it's a miracle!
You are an amazing story teller. Love the stories.❤➕ ❤ God bless and all here.
Thank you so much!
Fabulous story! The new ways encroached into the mountains! Thanks for another great one!
Thank you Karen!
Morning JD
Morning Larry, it’s gonna be a good ‘en
What a great ending!!!! Thanks for telling us another wonderful story...
Thank you Pinky!
Another fantastic piece of storytelling JD! I reckon we’ve had similar experiences here in Australia over the years, probably still happening in some parts. Thanks for your obvious research and dedication to the Mountain people. 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks so much Kev!
😅😅😅😅😮😢
The stories told on here have floated around since they happened. Luckily folks have passed them down, telling them around the stove or fireplace after dinner, or around the campfire while camping or fishing. Now the Appalachian Storyteller has researched them and is getting them beyond the community that they've been confined to for years. Thanks J. D.
Hey & Good Day
You to Taz

That was a right nice story!
Thank you so much !
Excellent! All the best from the land down under.
Thank you Marie!
I'm damn sure not the emotional type and it's been a long while since this face felt wetness outside of the rain or the shower... But between the happy ending of the story and more importantly your narration, floodgates and water works definitely came over it... It's a wonder you don't have 10 million subscribers. You're a genius of your craft kind sir!
Thank you so much, my friend that was a sweet comment
People don’t know how true the stories are. I have the same type things my whole life. Great stuff JD.
Thank you Sir!
Old health remedies work better than what we have today

Thank you!
How are you doing sir . Iam Arabic lady subscriber to several British and American TH-cam channels since Christmas 2019 . Actually I learned that Appalachian mountain region have special accents called southern English known as mountain speech or hillbilly English . Southern region including Appalachian and ozark . Actually they taught us there are American English and British English. Appalachian known for hand made quilts and pottery, wood craving , folklore, myths, superstition. There are big foot , Jersey devil cryptic. We too in Arabic countries We were kids our parents and some parents till nowadays if kids are stubborn if you don’t listen we have monsters for day time or another for night . Thank you for your wonderful cultural documentary channel and l learned too from dr Barry van channel there are surnames in Appalachian region. Stories is part of nation culture, literature. Iam so sorry to be little long but reading and writing both are great ways to improve our English as none native speakers. Good luck to you your dearest ones .
You are doing a great job !
Copperhill present! Morning, JD and thanks for another fine tale!

U always bring a exciting story..
Thank you Lisa!
I just love your stories. I can't help it. 😁
Thank you so much, I’m so happy your here
A side note, what beautiful music. Irish traditional music at its simplest and best is quite similar. Jigs and reels, and occasionally a polka. No singing, that’s a bit different. Fiddles, concertina, tin whistle, maybe a flute to be fancy.
There’s probably some interesting historical link, but I don’t know. Thank you.
Oh, and of course the banjos!
thanks so much for that, I am a musician myself and I put as much thought and effort into the music as I do the story itself.
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller It is very much appreciated sir. I love your work.
@@jessovenden Thank you ❤
Worthwhile content
Thank ye
I'm not going to lie I was super nervous listening to this story. Some of the stories you tell do not have happy endings so I really had no idea how this story was going to end. Sure am glad it had a happy ending. Another great story, keep em coming. Thanks

You my friend are a Master Story teller.🏆🏅
Thank you Hiker!
I was born in the late summer of 1969 in the Appalachian foothills. But my Granny, Ms. Lynda Estelle Woodward grew up deep in the mountains of Virginia. She always kept her home made remedies and poltices, and would always treat us young'ns first before any Dr. was ever called on. 😏 The base of almost every med she had was corn liquor and some of the most foul smelling lotions and salves you could imagine. But always seemed to do the trick.
BUT she knew when it was time to summon a proper MD.
I remember once when I was little I had come down with a terrible flu that had me cruddied up for a week and it was getting worse and close to pneumonia.
Momma took me up to Granny's house and I remember her making me get into some long handle pajamas and she rubbed some really smelly stuff on my chest, then gave me her "cough medicine".. 😏 which was moonshine whiskey mixed with opium that she got from Poppy she grew herself. So basically Laudanum. 😁 I felt much better pretty quickly. But that was the only one dose she gave me of that. Afterwards it was corn liquor mixed with hard cherry candy and a shake of crushed black pepper. 3 days and nights of that and the salves next to a nice fireplace and I was good to go. 😊 Oh, and some of the best chicken soup I've ever had then or since.
I still have those old stained up red long handle pajamas stored in a box in my closet.
RIP Granny. I'll see you soon ❤️
Thanks for sharing those memories!
@@TheAppalachianStoryteller Thanks for the channel 👍
