Love in America

Ladies First

We start On the Road right here in Deadwood, South Dakota with a colorful in-studio talk with the Deadwood Alive history troupe's own Martha "Calamity" Jane Cannary, actress and historian Jena Sierks. Jena discusses Jane's story, her place in Deadwood's history and the grit it takes to be a thespian in the Dakotas. Toni also takes listeners on a whirlwind tour of a few other notable tough gals from the Dakota Territory! Our Love is History feature this week is a courageous and heartfelt love with life itself, through the eyes of both comedy and tragedy, in the ongoing story of comedienne and actress Carol Burnett. Finally, the narrative from our upcoming book, Tales from The Heart of America, shares the treasure of Margo, waitress at the Goshen Diner in upstate New York, and her path from a forced marriage as a teenager in Russia, through hunger, abuse, neglect, traveling to America alone, and emerging from it all with a profound and enduring love for life and the people she meets everyday - a tale called Karma Margo.  Links: ·       Lead in song: Lovity Love [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID720jiPELY] by Something Underground [http://somethingunderground.com/] ·       Strong Women of Deadwood ·       The Madams: ·       Mollie Johnson a/k/a Queen of the Blondes  (https://karibovee.com/2018/07/08/mollie-johnson-queen-of-the-blondes-part-one/ [https://karibovee.com/2018/07/08/mollie-johnson-queen-of-the-blondes-part-one/]) ·       Dora DuFran [https://sites.google.com/site/samanthapattersonamh/marriage-among-prostitutes/madam-dora-dufran] (https://sites.google.com/site/samanthapattersonamh/marriage-among-prostitutes/madam-dora-dufran [https://sites.google.com/site/samanthapattersonamh/marriage-among-prostitutes/madam-dora-dufran]) ·       Kitty LeRoy [https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/134214586/kitty-leroy] (https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/134214586/kitty-leroy [https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/134214586/kitty-leroy]) ·       Eleanore Dumont [https://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-eleanoredumont/2/] a/k/a Madame Mustachio (https://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-eleanoredumont/2/ [https://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-eleanoredumont/2/]) ·       Poker Alice Tubbs [https://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-pokeralice/] (https://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-pokeralice/ [https://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-pokeralice/]) ·       Lucretia “Aunt Lou” Marchbanks [https://www.legendsofamerica.com/sd-auntlou/] (https://www.legendsofamerica.com/sd-auntlou/ [https://www.legendsofamerica.com/sd-auntlou/]) ·       From ABCNews online, Humor Helps Carol Burnett Cope [https://abcnews.go.com/2020/story?id=123891&page=1] (https://abcnews.go.com/2020/story?id=123891&page=1 [https://abcnews.go.com/2020/story?id=123891&page=1]) ·       From the NY Times, A Touch for Funny Bones and Earlobes [https://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/31/books/31burnett.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/31/books/31burnett.html [https://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/31/books/31burnett.html]);  ·       From Earn the Necklace, Who Is Carol Burnett’s Husband? Interesting Facts to Know about Brian Miller [https://www.earnthenecklace.com/carol-burnett-husband-brian-miller-wiki-age-facts/](https://www.earnthenecklace.com/carol-burnett-husband-brian-miller-wiki-age-facts/ [https://www.earnthenecklace.com/carol-burnett-husband-brian-miller-wiki-age-facts/])  ·       From Mental Floss, 16 Fun Facts [http://mentalfloss.com/article/73448/16-ear-tugging-facts-about-carol-burnett-show] About The Carol Burnett Show ·       (http://mentalfloss.com/article/73448/16-ear-tugging-facts-about-carol-burnett-show [http://mentalfloss.com/article/73448/16-ear-tugging-facts-about-carol-burnett-show]) ·       From Wikipedia, Carol Burnett [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol_Burnett] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol_Burnett [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol_Burnett] )  ·       From Amazon.com, This Time Together: Laughter and Reflection, by Carol Burnett [https://tinyurl.com/ydy9xgoc] (https://tinyurl.com/ydy9xgoc [https://tinyurl.com/ydy9xgoc]) ·       From YouTube, Intimate Interviews Channel, Carol Burnett [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVdZOx34BQs] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVdZOx34BQs [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVdZOx34BQs]) ·       Narrative - Karma Margo: ·       Additional narratives can be found in our book (on Amazon.com): Lovin America, the Roads to Happily-Ever-After;  [https://www.amazon.com/Lovin-America-Happily-Ever-After-Scotte-Burns-ebook/dp/B01GB07LXQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1509737152&sr=1-1&keywords=lovin+america] ·       Lovin America website: https://www.LovinAmerica.us [https://www.lovinamerica.us/];  ·       Lovin America YouTube Channel: https://tinyurl.com/YouTube-LovinAmerica [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZYPjuJa7V4aZ1MUPiN1ZEw/videos]
