This week, we meet a West Virginia artist who designs stickers, t-shirts, patches and pins. She draws on classic Appalachian phrases her family has used for years. They’re not all radio-friendly.

Also, people who live near Indian Creek in southern West Virginia say something is wrong with the water. Tests show contamination from a nearby mine. Now people and animals are getting sick. 

And, lots of schools are seeing teacher shortages. But what happens when the band director quits?

You'll hear these stories and more this week, Inside Appalachia.
