Episode 49: Garbage Pail Kids; The Legend of The Columns of West Dennis; Top 5 Christmas Season Toys; Southern Shores NC (12-16-2021)

Send us Fan Mail Episode 49 brings the gross out humor to the Holiday season. For a brief time in the 1980's Garbage Pail Kids took the youth of America by storm. At first these stickers were seen as a disgusting spin on Cabbage Patch Kids. What was it that caused their downfall? What was it like to be a kid when these first came out? For 35 years a beautifully stoic building has been slowly decaying on Rt. 28 in West Dennis. An eyesore today it was once a family homestead and at its peak it was a restaurant and swinging jazz club. Learn the long story of The Columns in this week's episode. We return to the Outer Banks this week for a Road Trip to Southern Shores, North Carolina. The Outer Banks was the crown jewel of my 2019 road trip and will be featured heavily on the next few episodes. There's a new Top 5 this week featuring Christmas season toys. The biggest selling toys of the Holiday season, which toys and which years made the list? There's a new This Week In History featuring the birth of seer Nostradamus and a special birthday Time Capsule as well.
