Carol Burnett and her love story with life – you’ll be glad we had this time together; On the Road stays close to home with two powerful women in one – and woe to them who stand in the way of either – Deadwood’s own Calamity Jane, actress Jena Sierks; Lovin SoDak is a slew of ladies showing their… grit, in Deadwood; and our original Tale from The Heart of America is a narrative of a woman who’s strength turned struggle into kindness, Karma Margo.

**This Love in America Podcast originally aired August 12, 2018 as Episode 44 – Tough as (Painted) Nails**
