    Ep 4: A Hail Mary

    Despite a year in the hands of a realtor, the mother-daughter team’s strategy to unload the dilapidated inheritance has no traction until they take matters into their own hands with a post “for lease or sale” in CraigsList. The lone inquiry is from a curious local, Bill Dieterich, a self-described righteous advocate of progress. At a hastily organized meeting Bill passionately pitches his take-charge concept of outlining possible, albeit tenuous, next steps. They lead to a collision of family inheritance, the importance of community, and the unexpected impact of local values. ** Reminder -- the podcast "hosts" are AI (how?? beats us).

    Ep 3: Meeting the Neighbors

    With Laura less than enthusiastic at the prospect of taking on a Dodd's Corner rehab, Sharon attempts to sell it. She faces challenges by both the town's economic decline and the discovery of potential environmental contamination from previous tenants. Some locals offer random bits of advice, but ultimately they create further obstacles, such as the realtor who advises her to obtain EPA clearance due to possible pesticide contamination. This process leads to a costly environmental inspection and the possibility of the property being classified as a "Superfund" site, leaving Sharon facing potential financial ruin and highlighting the serpentine complexities of environmental regulations. * Reminder -- the podcast "hosts" are AI (how?? beats us).

    Ep 2: Can We Go Now?

    Laura reluctantly agrees to go meet her mom in Nicholasville, KY to go lay eyes on Dodd's Corner for the first time. They arrive to find the dilapidated seed store in a complete state of disrepair: vagrants' trash, holes in the ceiling, buckling floorboards, and a large vintage padlocked safe in the corner that hints at possible treasures that may lie within. Laura isn't shy about what she thinks she and her mom should do with this inheritance.  * Reminder -- the podcast "hosts" are AI (how?? beats us). "They" do make some gaffes—please bear with us/them.
