      These Q & A’s with you & Matt are so fun,Tipper! It’s like we get to learn new things about our distant, but much loved relatives! Matt is such a hoot and I love his sense of humor. So many of the humorous things he says, reminds me of my precious daddy. My daddy has gone on to be with Jesus now, but he had the most wonderful, fun-loving personality & he kept his endearing sense of humor until his death
even during his last couple of years, when I know he was suffering
daddy still found a reason to laugh, & to bring laughter to his wife, four daughters, grandchildren & great-grandchildren. My daddy was a good ole’, hard working country boy & he was all about God, his family, his garden, fishing, hunting & all things outdoors. He was a wonderful provider & a wonderful father. Basically, he was an older, balder version of your Matt. Lol. They just don’t make men like them anymore! Thanks for another great video. Mama & I sure enjoyed it. God bless you all.đŸ™đŸ»đŸ’•

    Tipper you were thanking the viewers for watching, but we should all be thanking you and your family. Y'all are so centered and real and genuine. Watching your channel is so calming and reassuring because of the love and closeness y'all have and most of all your faith. If people who are out there searching for peace and joy and love would start to watch y'all, it would change them. It might make them slow down and appreciate the life and blessings they have. I feel like y'all are family.

    You have blessed me too. I started watching Celebrating Appalachia in 2020. I saw your channel on my suggested channels and the title appealed to me immediately because I am also, as you say Tipper, "plum foolish" about Appalachian culture. I am such a fan of your channel, as well as the girls' channel. God bless you all and keep up the great work! You make Appalachia proud! đŸ˜€â€

I also love how you leave the camera rolling while you and Matt just talk. It’s so relaxing to watch, especially with so many disturbing things in the news and on TV these days. You take us back to a much simpler time. Always looking forward to a new video. ❀

See I did a DNA test and I knew my family was from Eastern Kentucky, but until I watched your channel, I didn't know why we ate soupy pinto beans and cornbread, or why my Dad crumbled his cornbread and put his soup beans on top. It's an Appalachian thing. Thank you for keeping the heritage alive

    And you have passed it along to your daughters. I truly loved Corie’s recent tribute to Miss Cindy and how she shared her faith.
    That goes back to the closeness of your family ties and your Faith.

    I randomly came across your channel a while back and was immediately drawn to the title. My father was from Tennessee and I was very close to his mother until her death at 93. They've both been gone for a decades now and I miss their language, cooking and stories. So, nostalgia made me click on your video and I've been hooked ever since. I've ordered the cookbook for myself and my son. It's a link to my father, who passed long before my children were born.
