    Adam's Ghost Hunt and Two Haunted SC Bridges

    Today's episode is a bit of all the wild and wacky that a spur of the moment drive to a haunted bridge with live, on-the-scene audio can serve. And does it serve. Enjoy the accent and native voice of a South Carolinian tell the story of some.... unique local folklore and legend of Tigerville. The Hushhole Hag... I know you're interested. This is not an episode suitable for children, please look for that explicit tag! Sources below-- Adam Bachman - legendary monotone storyteller and distiller.

    Radio: Conspiracies, Marcello Bacci, and of course ... the FCC

    Greetings earthlings! Or... other worlders... is that a thing? Okay how about those on a different plane... if you get this transmission, I'm sorry. I wish you'd found something better but this will just have to do. After a years hiatus, your podcast over(under?)lord is back to talk all things radio. My inspiration started after I watched a friends (Cory Boughton!) newest feature film, Free the Airwaves, a true story about his and his brother's time doing pirate radio in Asheville in the late 90s, early 2000s. Check out that hyper link folks!

    The Adventures of Blackbeard and his Imminent Downfall!

    Ahoy mateys! Apologies for my scallywag-like behavior lately -- hope you don't hang the jib too much since I've been gone.
