Hello, and welcome to the show. This is part three and the end of our due over coverage of Laura Ingalls Wilder.

the TV show, Cheers. And I attributed it to the wrong person.

And we got letters. That's crazy. And it was only episode two, so I was like, oh my goodness,

what am I doing? So anyway, no, it was not Woody who sang that song. It was Coach.

I feel so much better.

So me, never having heard that song before, can you give us a bar or two?

Albania, Albania, you border on the Adriatic.

Your land is mostly mountainous. and your chief export is chrome i like i think that's the whole song
