    111. Loretta Lynn's Haunted House
    Jul 10 2024

    The Coal Miner's Daughter had a few skeletons in her closet. Literally. But unlike most sane people, Loretta Lynn decided living with ghosts was actually kind of fine? Weird life.

    This is the story of Loretta Lynn's Haunted House. Come for the ghosts, stay for Coal Miner's Minor, burly men named Norm, take that, Bible!, city of lights and chicken, Latin for bones is grist, how smushy is that smush room, and the plumbing is very restrictive.

    110. Hales Bar Dam
    Jul 3 2024

    In the first of what is probably destined to be some sort of suite of dam episodes, we're tackling the Hales Bar Dam. Which is a surprisingly unknown name for what is apparently the most haunted dam in the U.S.! Also, it's actually very bad at damming.

    This is the story of the Hales Bar Dam. Come for the ghosts, stay for M-16 pocket protectors, MCU Donny, the meany lessons of Poltergeist, land investor Dracula, you can eat a horse, mom got the big suck, Schrödinger’s town, and normal naked dude.

    109. Fort De Soto Park and the Sunshine Sky Bridge
    Jun 26 2024

    Ah, the gulf coast of Florida, where the fish are boiling and the reefs are painted red, white, and blue. Good luck, Floridians.

    This is the story of Fort De Soto Park and the Sunshine Sky Bridge. Come for the ghosts, stay for I'm very swampy, canoe warfare, battle stingrays, beach wool, The Price is Right gun pit, unkillable buses, and the first Florida Man.

makes me laugh out loud

This podcast makes me want to get drunk and have conversations with my friends 😂 I will listen with a headphone in while doing chores and my kids keep asking what I'm laughing at. A great podcast for anyone that enjoys paranormal/history stories but also has a dark humor.

Ghost stories for interest, not scares

I enjoyed listening to this podcast over a long distance road trip I was doing alone. I'm not super into podcasts in general, because I often find podcaster people annoying and, mostly, I don't love having to listen to a conversation I can't take part in. But I loved Cartalk back in the day, so that's an example of a talk radio show I enjoyed. I'm guessing this is not really a show for super ghost obsessives, since they are very open about not doing tons of reasearch, but it is good enough to tell an absorbing story and they note the stuff that could stand more investigation, if you want to do it. They also tell a lot of stories I've never heard before, which is refreshing. They hit some of the big, famous ones, of course, but also go into a lot of smaller, more off the wall ones as well, which I really enjoy. I find ghost stories super interesting, but when I'm driving for hours alone, especially at night, I don't need to be freaked out. They go on so many tangents and get distracted by the randomest details, that it's very difficult to get genuinely scared. It is, however, entertaining and they have a friendly vibe. I subtracted a star on a less important rating because sometimes the meandering tangents are genuinely too long, especially the ones about their personal lives.

Other points of note: I appreciate Patrick's effort to "fix" some of the misguided phrasing of things, such as when a sexual relationship between a slave and her owner is termed an "affair" by a reputable news source and he insists on calling it assault. It is hopeful when people doing things in the public eye/media etc. learn to be better and call out mistakes like this (yes, it is generous to call them mistakes). Secondly, I very much enjoy Clayton's appreciation of the ridiculous. The more absurd and, frankly, dumb the situation gets, the more he savors it, which gives me vicarious chuckles. Third, they have serious geek cred, which they reveal incidentally, for the most part, like when Clayton makes a semi obscure He-Man reference or when he admits his celebrity crush is on Tatiana Maslany (She Hulk). I own a Bubbah Hotep dvd and saw it on the big screen in Chicago hosted by Bruce Campbell in person, so I feel like they're kinda my people (Patrick has a signed poster from the movie).

Overall, definitely five stars. My favourite story so far is the one about the ghost hole. I love that and think it needs to be a plot device in a mystery novel.
