Episode 49: Helen Ruth Spence

In the rural Arkansas Delta, Helen Ruth Spence grew up living in a houseboat on the White River during the Great Depression. Helen’s father was murdered right before her eyes, and her mother taken and beaten. Helen Ruth Spence then decided to take matters into her own hands.

It’s a lengthy, wild story, so there’s not a whole lot of discussion after the fact. We do get clarification on the difference between Awana and Kiwanis, and then discuss the fifth episode of WandaVision.
