MickyMan	Riley Shepard’s Encyclopedia of Folk Music (6)	Folklore: Shepard's 'Encyc.Of Folk Musc on Podcast	16 Jan 19
On January 9th, the "Hidden Brain" podcast did a story on Riley Shepard, musician, producer, and the compiler of an "Encyclopedia Of Folk Music", which he used to fraudulently illicit money from multiple backers. He was a con artist for sure, but the podcast ends by painting him as a possible "genius" for his scholarship. Does anybody have more information on him or his work, or have any opinions about the podcast? Link to podcast: NPR "Hidden Brain" Podcast: Jan 9 2019 "Cowboy Philosopher"
