A Haunting in Bergen

It's a Halloween episode! We decided to test our podcast equipment in a location we found on the Haunted History Trail. We still don't know if there were any ghosts, but if there were they had some fun with our equipment!

The Forgotten Dead

Rochester has a long relationship with poverty and death. We compare how the poor were treated at the end of their lives 150 years ago versus now. Learn about the Highland Park "bone yard", and visit a local non-profit that makes caskets for Rochester's homeless. Thanks to Don Skillman & Memorials Co-op, Stephanie Ball & the RMSC archives, Teej Jenkins and Nicole Delgrosso for making this episode possible.

Roctales: the Preview

If you grew up in Rochester, you learned a handful of names and places at an early age. It wasn't until we got older that we discovered there was much more to the city on the Genesee than Kodak and Sam Patch. Here's a quick preview of Roctales, the new local history podcast focused on some of the weird and wonderful stories that make our corner of the world so fascinating. Full episodes coming very soon.
