Gather up the kids and the old folks, shut down the contraptions and dim the lights,

put away your pocket size magic lantern shows, close your eyes and listen.

It's time to strike off on the paths less traveled,

Here we experience stories from the hills and hollers, the river banks and the brush,

It's time to venture into the Wild and Woolly Ozarks,

I'm your native guide and host Champ Herren.

Welcome Gentlepeople!

We have quite a podcast as we talk about some Ozarks cemetery lore, with two guests well acquainted on the subject so you will want to stick around.

Under housekeeping

We have an entire slate of Halloweenish topics between now and the 31st,

I hope you caught our Haint Neither Episode, on ghost stories that never happened and a few that might’ve. With our good friend Todd Wilkinson,

Also joining us, Ozarks True Crime Tik tok Queen,

Yes I'm talking about the one and only Amber Vance!

When she is here, I'm sure with a spooky story or two.

We also are proud to present a scholarly look at The Roots of Ozark Witchcraft, with cultural anthropologist Justin Minor. Should you want to curse someone or throw a hex on your neighbors apple crop THIS IS NOT the episode for you. That is another episode.

Also we will soon be producing an experiment.

This is something that I've been wanting to try for sometime.

A podcast where you follow my research as you listen.

Newspapers.com is one of my favorite tools,

I know there are more of you who feel the same, what if we did an episode where as you listened you could follow along with the original print?

Currently we have two in the offing,

one on graverobbing and another on wild men! Be sure to look for updates on these including instructions on how to follow along.

We have also made a foray into other media. If you haven't seen it yet

You can follow us on TikTok, Instagram and Facebook.
