One of my favorite podcasts. I love all the different stories from the South as I am a Southern myself and I have learned a lot about the folklore of the South. Brandon has a great presentation of the material he covers and the perfect voice for a podcast . Keep up the great work!

Great to get away from the world

I’d call this the best escapism podcast out there. Politics in the modern sense is never brought up, just historic context and fun stories. We lived close to the Gaines Tavern in KY for a decade and I have to say that episode was spot on and was so much fun to listen to! Easily my top 3 favorite podcasts! Keep it up!

Heard an ad for this show. They mispronounced Appalachia. They list Carolina as the northern edge of the South, then go on to talk about Virginia. The music is generic Western slop. About as southern as JD Vance, using stereotypes and summaries of others wok to make a buck. Git.

Love this Pod. Especially the older mysteries ., I set the mood and listen. Candlelight, cider , kick back, relax and let your voice take me back to a time my ancestors lived. I have my own mystery (1908 ish) My Grandmothers brother was supposedly dismembered, burned ,parts thrown into a well. Two other murders followed. , the murdered turned out to be my Great Uncles cousin. All in the Western North Carolina.
