Episode 152: Operation Paperclip:

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2106811/fan_mail/new] One reason we have such a problem with racism today is that we did not punish the confederacy hard enough for their treason.  Another would be the 1,600 scientist, and technicians and their families that were brought over to the US from Nazi Germany. You read that right, the US government brought over 1600 of Germany's best and brightest, their spouses and their children, to the US.  Most of them did not have a hand in anything important, but those who did, well their names are still being spoken across the world for their contributions to science.   TPL EP 152 Source Notes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Force [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Force] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morgenthau_Plan#JCS_1067 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morgenthau_Plan#JCS_1067] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernher_von_Braun [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernher_von_Braun] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Space_Flight_Center [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Space_Flight_Center] Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/TheParanormalLovers] Thanks for joining us today!

Episode 151: Moon River Brewing Company:

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2106811/fan_mail/new] Ian takes us down to Savannah this week to look at one of the most haunted buildings in the city.  Built as a hotel for travelers this building would be used for various things, including of course a hospital where dozens of people died, mainly children.  Even before she was opened as a brew pub reports of strange experiences in the building had been made. While it might be closed now, one can still walk by and try to spot an apparition in the window.  TPL Source Notes: https://nightlyspirits.com/the-haunted-moon-river-brewing-company-savannah/ [https://nightlyspirits.com/the-haunted-moon-river-brewing-company-savannah/] https://ghostcitytours.com/savannah/haunted-savannah/haunted-restaurants/moon-river-brewing-company/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22571589313&gclid=Cj0KCQjw54nRBhDCARIsAMcY_SDX9d2bPEjo6g74Uz_TlnoL4r2RqjN7oACxZtzKrGxQGjR1_A_w3P8aAoTJEALw_wcB [https://ghostcitytours.com/savannah/haunted-savannah/haunted-restaurants/moon-river-brewing-company/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22571589313&gclid=Cj0KCQjw54nRBhDCARIsAMcY_SDX9d2bPEjo6g74Uz_TlnoL4r2RqjN7oACxZtzKrGxQGjR1_A_w3P8aAoTJEALw_wcB] https://usghostadventures.com/haunted-stories/moon-river-brewing-co/ [https://usghostadventures.com/haunted-stories/moon-river-brewing-co/] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_River_Brewing_Company [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_River_Brewing_Company] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Tecumseh_Sherman [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Tecumseh_Sherman] Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/TheParanormalLovers] Thanks for joining us today!

Episode 149: The Gallinipper:

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2106811/fan_mail/new] This week Ian is taking another look at a somewhat local cryptid. Local to us in that it seems to live in our state, albeit, on the other side. And I could not be happier about that! We deal with our fair share of mosquitos in WNC, but in the swamp land of ENC there lives one that is said to be the size of a man, or at least a very large bird. Gallinipper is it's name and if it decides your blood should be it's next meal, that is lights out!

ROH Rerelease: Episode 23: The Murder of Ruthie Mae McCoy

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2106811/fan_mail/new] Life has gotten a little chaotic lately, so we have not recorded in a couple weeks, but we wanted to let yall know we are not going anywhere, just life lifeing. Enjoy this episode from Rethinking Our History about the murder behind one of the most popular cult classics around.  In 1992 the cult classic movie Candyman made it's way to movie theaters, and more than a few people recognized the story line to be much more than just a nightmare. For folks living in the ABLA homes, the thought of someone breaking in through their bathroom cabinets was not an irrational fear, but one they lived with daily. In comes 52 year old Ruthie Mae who had been a resident of Abbott homes for four years. Having lived a long hard life Ruthies was on the path to freedom and safety, but her journey was cut short when two young men broke in through her medicine cabinet and murdered her. And so a legend was born that has haunted generations for over three decades. And for those who still live in these buildings, it's more than a legend, it is their day to day life.
