Is Sarah Beth Terry a dingus? A concerned citizen has raised the question, and the Porch Paper is investigating.

Before reaching a verdict, Sarah Beth covers escalating conflicts overseas, rising oil prices, Canadian tariffs, the approaching midterm elections, West Virginia and Kentucky news, a rescued cow, and a blind senior dog whose adventure ends with firefighters and a T-bone steak.

She also celebrates Patsy Cline and songwriter Harlan Howard, establishes the rules of antique-mall etiquette, encounters a veterinarian with an unusually dark sense of humor, and explains why manners matter more than knowing which fork to use.

After the news, the conversation continues with the Bible rescue mission, Sarah Beth’s Feral Christian journey, finding your calling, and the reminder that God has always used imperfect people.
