Jessie B you have a voice I want to listen to,& your stories are engaging
I look forward to your podcast. Lots of podcasts that I try out have great & interesting topics(paranormal) but their voices are terrible, ramble too much & don’t address it
I get frustrated.
Your a breathe of fresh air

I have wonderful memories of grade school going to our local library for story telling.
Thank you Jessie

A history- and storytelling-focused program that blends Kentucky-specific history, true crime, and quirky regional lore. Episodes consistently center around well-researched historical narratives, courtroom Drama, and lesser-known local tales, often weaving archival context with modern commentary and sponsor reads. The host voice is described as engaging and easy to listen to, with a strong emphasis on credible sourcing and depth across a wide range of Kentucky topics. A standout is the frequent multi-part deep dives into long-running, colorful local stories, plus occasional cross-promo with related media. This combination makes it a compelling pick for listeners who enjoy well-researched history, regional culture, and true-crime adjacent st... more
