- Emotional!
I love this show and never miss an episode but the latest one (ep. 327) had my husband and I in pieces! It was so emotional. I love to hear about the lighthouse infrastructure but the human element to the episodes gives an extra, human dimension, bringing it all to life. Thank you!

Each episode is always interesting! So fun to learn about lighthouses all over the country. Everything from the history of the lighthouses themselves to local history and culture.
Thank you Jeremy for all the work you put into this podcast, I for one as an avid lighthouse enthusiast appreciate it!

Such a delightful podcast. I love the history deep dives.
Apple Podcasts5JennacayeUnited States2 years ago - Climate change
Climate change is a religion, it cannot be proven by any science I know of. Better to stick to lighthouse podcasts. The episode with Sally Snowman was a very dark episode. Not really in keeping with shinning a light. The occult is not a good subject to feature. It’s not surprising it was accidentally erased. You should have kept it erased and forgotten.
