  • My top fav podcast

    I listen to so many podcasts, but this one is my top favorite. The easy going way they banter with each other.

    They really get into the paranormal and weird stories getting sent in.

    Many of which are laughable, but for some reason I enjoy listening.

    It’s like sitting around in an old country store swapping tall tales. Yes, I am a Gen X and I used to go down to the old feed store with my grandfather and he and his buddies would shoot the breeze .This podcast is like that.

    Thanks for enjoyment... more
