Episode 25 - Conflict and Resolution in Eureka Springs, an Ozarks Town for Anyone

Join Curtis and Hayden for a cultural and historical tour of the most unusual and perhaps the loveliest town in the Ozarks, Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Drawing on the work of Jared Phillips and Mike Luster as well as other historians, your hosts explore the conflict between the "hipbillies," led by Edd Jeffords, and the "boosters," led by the rancorous preacher Gerald L.K. Smith, and the little town that embraced them both. Eureka Springs may be a historical role model for reconciliation even today.
