In this episode, we talk with the inaugural Kermit O. Paxton and Renee A. Paxton Endowed Teaching Chair at Gettysburg College, Dr. McKinley Melton. McKinley talks to us about his research in spirituality among enslaved Africans in America as well as his new project investigating contemporary spoken-word African-American poets. He also explains why Ian’s “flexibility” is a superpower and describes his large collection of fleeces. Finally, we all share a delicious fall drink while two of the three attic occupants mock one of the host’s inability to say a word that looks nothing like how it is pronounced. But it’s all in good fun, I think. Join us to find out!
