    AF-1016: Spinning Old Christmas Yarns | Ancestral Findings Podcast

    I remember a simple yet enchanting holiday moment—it began with my grandparents standing beside the Christmas tree. Its lights were glowing gently in the early evening, and the house carried that pleasant hush that settles in once the day’s bustle has quieted down. They leaned toward me and said, “Squint your eyes, and you’ll see the lights better.” Naturally, as a curious child, I obliged. In an instant, those bright points of color blurred into radiant halos, as if each bulb had become a tiny star in its universe. It felt like stepping into a world shaped by whispers and warm glances, where small acts—like narrowing your eyes—could turn the ordinary into something magical...

    AF-1015: The Christmas Mystery Box | Ancestral Findings Podcast

    There’s a certain hush that falls over the house after the lights are strung and the tree’s ornaments are in place. In that quiet moment, you might notice a forgotten box tucked away on a shelf or hidden in a trunk. It doesn’t announce itself with glossy paper or bright bows. It might even look plain—old cardboard, a wooden latch, a dusty top. Yet inside, it holds something far more meaningful than any store-bought gift: pieces of your family’s past waiting to be rediscovered. Years ago, I found such a box in my grandmother’s attic. It contained letters written when her handwriting was still neat and steady, photographs of relatives whose names I had to puzzle out, and a handful of unexpected trinkets—a worn button, a pressed rose, a few scraps of lace. Initially, I saw these items as curiosities, odd fragments from another era. But the more I studied them, the more I realized they weren’t just souvenirs. They were insights into how my ancestors experienced their world, how they prepared for the holidays, what they hoped for, and what they cherished...

    AF-1014: Grandma’s Gingerbread and Grandpa’s Carol | Ancestral Findings Podcast

    Imagine stepping into a warm kitchen on a cold December afternoon. Light streams through the window, catching dust motes in the air as the oven door swings open to reveal rows of gingerbread cookies—crisp edges, soft centers, and that unmistakable aroma of holiday spices. Over in the living room, somewhere between the fireplace and the decorated tree, a song floats softly through the house. It’s an old melody your grandfather sang every year, carrying a quiet strength that somehow still feels close, even if he’s no longer sitting in that armchair by the window. For many of us, these moments—biting into a cookie with a secret family recipe or humming along to a holiday carol passed down through the ages—connect us with the people who came before. Recipes and songs often feel like threads binding us to distant times, handed down through generations, shaping who we are today. Uncovering the stories behind family recipes and cherished tunes makes it possible to understand not just what our ancestors loved, but why these traditions mattered enough to carry forward into modern life...

    AF-1011: The Underground City: Cold War Bunkers and America’s Hidden Network of Survival

    During the height of the Cold War, as nuclear tensions simmered between the United States and the Soviet Union, American officials quietly prepared for a nightmare scenario: a full-scale nuclear attack. In this era of secrecy, the government constructed a hidden network of underground bunkers and survival facilities designed to ensure continuity of government. These secure locations, some sprawling beneath small towns, scenic resorts, and major cities, held the keys to preserving American governance in a moment of crisis. Let’s explore the fascinating, true world of Cold War bunkers and how these secret facilities became America’s hidden insurance policy...

    AF-1010: The Bigfoot Phenomenon: America’s Love Affair with the Unseen

    For decades, a mysterious creature known as Bigfoot has captivated Americans, sparking countless sightings, documentaries, and even scientific expeditions. What began as local folklore in the forests of the Pacific Northwest has grown into a national phenomenon, with Bigfoot leading an entire cast of cryptids—creatures whose existence may not be proven but whose place in our imaginations is powerful. Today, Bigfoot isn’t just a creature of mystery; he’s an icon, part of America’s fabric, with towns across the country crafting their own legendary creatures to draw in curious visitors. Let’s journey through Bigfoot’s story, from his mysterious footprints to the modern-day cryptid craze, and explore how people like my cousin Matt Moneymaker have helped keep the legend alive...
