In today's episode, Stacy talks about her experience at the Missouri Preservation Conference, and Daniel gives a lake cottage update.  Then, during listener Q&A, Stacy and Daniel answer whether mid-century house enthusiasts can be members of the (figurative) old house club.  And finally, they are excited to chat with one of the foremost experts on mail-order houses, Rebecca Hunter. Rebecca clarifies the difference between Sears Homes and other kit houses. She also explains the fascinating details of ordering and building a house that arrived in the mail.  To request a transcript of this episode, please reach out via the contact page.
