This is the Appalachian Father Podcast

I’m Jimmy Love, a husband and father from East Tennessee.

I invite you to join me as we talk about being a better husband and father, a better sibling and friend, maybe a better neighbor, too. We’ll look at what folks from the past have to say. We’ll revisit some lessons learned in childhood. Well listen to present day folks with sage advice. We might even hear from a guest every now and then.

My hope is that you’ll join me, so we can walk this path together, encouraging and challenging each other along the way.

If you want to, go ahead and subscribe. I’d appreciate it.
