[Well hey there, Family! And so another lost soul makes their way to Fandom Island in hopes of findin' the ever elusive happily ever after. I'm lookin' forward to chroniclin' his journey during this gap in his canon, y'all. The openin' paragraphs are quoted directly from the podcast, and the song lyrics are from actual intro and outro music as well. And this is my “I know I didn't have to look up whether it was possible to travel from Kentucky to Baltimore via Greyhound in the 30's” promise to not write every Caleb post as if I were writin' an episode of Old Gods of Appalachia. Pretty sure I got it out of my system, family.]
I'd like y'all to meet Caleb Gibson aka Cowboy Absher aka Caleb Dooley. He hails from the mountains of Appalachia in the mid-1930's, and the podcast “Old Gods of Appalachia”.

I feel like I've forgotten something so I dunno maybe there'll be a second infopost coming someday. In the meantime, here's a link to the prologue/teaser for the series:
Prologue
Привет and welcome to our new Russian friends from LiveJournal! We are happy to offer you a new home. We will not require identification for you to post or comment. We also do not cooperate with Russian government requests for any information about your account unless they go through a United States court first. (And it hasn't happened in 16 years!)
Importing your journal from ЖЖ may be slow. There are a lot of you, with many posts and comments, and we have to limit how fast we download your information from ЖЖ so they don't block us. Please be patient! We have been watching and fixing errors, and we will go back to doing that after the holiday is over.
I am very sorry that we can't translate the site into Russian or offer support in Russian. We are a much, much smaller company than LiveJournal is, and my high school Russian classes were a very long time ago :) But at least we aren't owned by Sberbank!
С Новым Годом, and welcome home!
EDIT: Большое спасибо всем за помощь друг другу в комментариях! Я ценю каждого, кто предоставляет нашим новым соседям информацию, понятную им без необходимости искать её в Google. :) И спасибо вам за терпение к моему русскому переводу с помощью Google Translate! Прошло уже много-много лет со школьных времен!
Thank you also to everyone who's been giving our new neighbors a warm welcome. I love you all ❤️
