  • Paula is great/ the other episodes, not so much

    Love listening to Paula – she is a great storyteller and has such a calming voice! The episodes without her always feel like they’re lacking and often times the editing is poor (a lot of accidental repeat soundbites). Regardless, this podcast will introduce you to a lot of fascinating history about the state.

  • THE BEST STORY-BASED PODCAST EVER!

    I’ve been an OM’er since 2019, Paula is among the best storytellers of our time. It’s seems she imbues a piece of her soul into each episode, (or as I like to think of it, “A Slice of Schleis”). I’ve struggled to find another podcast that is akin to the magic Paula and Steve bring to Ohio Mysteries, to no avail. Absolutely unparalleled. Thank you both.

  • Mysteries are GREAT

    Paula's editions are great and I look forward to those episodes. The backroads episodes are horrible. Please do away with the those episodes. Paula is the best though!
