Are the clay soils in many parts of North Carolina a curse or a blessing? Red clay is as much a part of our state's heritage as pine tar and basketball. Those who try to grow crops in red clay often have a distinctly different view from those who make pottery or bricks.

In this episode Exploring North Carolina will visit geologists, potters, brick makers, and paleontologists. In one way or another, we are all "stuck in clay."
