Easily Distracted by Cemeteries

Everyone welcome Tom Lantz, the trustee and sexton for Jackson cemetery. He is a wealth of historical knowledge and a great storyteller! One of our favorite 'haunts' in high school, we loved to scare ourselves in this cemetery at night!

With all good intentions, we started out on location for this podcast....Mother Nature and maybe a little bit of Florence Robinson had other plans! Sorry for the awkward placement of the ad but technical difficulties cut us short on one of the funniest endings we've had yet for a podcast! Oh well, we will have many more opportunities to outdo ourselves! Enjoy.

Woo hoo! We have a sponsor! And a new intro and don't miss the ending! The ad is at the end with the new ending right after that, we are so excited! Julia is back for this episode with lots of great stories and info for us to distract her from completing a whole story at once! Enjoy!

We welcome our very own veteran buddy, Randy who is such an awesome storyteller! And he's heard of 'above yer raisin''. We had some suspicious activities happen while trying to record and are convinced it was Cooney striking again! Listen and find out about the beloved Cooney. (Ignore my comment about the advertisement break, it's almost ready but not quite :))Enjoy!

Michelle joined us and there was some great reminiscing from Sandra and Michelle's younger days with a little bit of discussion about everything else!

Everyone join us for some discussion about all sorts of stuff, proverbs, headstone readings, and lots of questions about why things are the way they are, like how to spell Elegant and how to be above your raisin :) Enjoy!

This episode covers many topics, hang on for a wild ride as far as topics and somehow it all flows together until we sign off! From Rory and Jory, to epitaph recipes we cover it all!

Join us as we go into great discussions on epitaphs, poems, and other off topic topics.

Grand finale episode for 2025! We try to stay on task with some great epitaphs we have seen in our wanderings. Enjoy, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! See you in Season 3!

Join us for a review of our past month's wanderings and antics with our guest for the podcast, Sandi Meyer!

We continue on for more talk about the Mark R. and Emily Hunter book, Haunted Noble County Indiana. Everyone needs a copy!

Join us in talking about our haunts in Noble County with the Authors of said book 'Haunted Noble County Indiana'. Mark R. and wife Emily join our in-depth discussions of all of the spooky places and stories of our resident county.

We welcome guest Cheri Perkins to the podcast! This podcast is very random as we cover a lot of topics to fascinate you and entertain you.

Well, our IT person was MIA, so you all get an informal start to the podcast as we didn't know it was recording and the conversation was so good we couldn't cut it!Enjoy our conversation and invite to Florence to come forward and play her acoustical guitar in celebration of his/her death day :)

In saying farwell to the old Miller Happy Acres Homestead due to the passing of Arnold (Sandra's Dad), we held our podcast in the almost cleaned out house and tried to talk about different symbols you will see in cemeteries and what they represent. However, there is much more discussed as well as the recorder getting turned on way ahead of the beginning of our podcast, so enjoy our crazy discussions prior to beginning the actual podcast. Enjoy, we sure did!

More on military ceremonies and some fascinating obituaries discussed in this episode

A great session with Jeff Bish and Jeff Artecki as we dive into the ceremonies and traditions of military funerals.

Continued conversation with Cheryl on our theories on hauntings, ghosts, and investigations.

Guest speaker Cheryl tells us about her ghost experiences

Join us as we revisit some of the last episodes and fill in the blanks as well as retelling the story of the hanging on Diamond Lake Hill as well as dreams and lots of off topic ramblings!

Continuation of trying to clear up all those loose ends before we head in to 2025 and Season 2!

We apparently were Easily Distracted many times along the way this year so we are re-hashing all those questions that we left up in the air along the way

We are on site for this podcast at a cemetery! We also did our first Facebook Live! We had technical difficulties in the beginning. I decided I don't know how to edit yet so you all get to hear the whole thing, bloopers and all!!In honor of Halloween, even though we are a couple days late, join us for some great ghost stories!

Happy Halloween! We have an extra episode to share as we were on the road and decided to sit and record one evening as we sat around the AirBNB table and reminisced about our own ghost stories.

Join us for more local stories and folklore

Discussion of local stories and legends and we got some doozies

We have a special guest on this one! Lightfoot Miller! Sandra's Dad joins us to share his spooky stories while growing up in the Appalachians.

Rodney is back with more fun and interesting stories!!

We welcomed Rodney to our podcast. He had a lot of great stories and information from when he was a funeral director

Join us as we talk about how we got to where we are today and answer some fan mail questions!

Today we were discussing all of the fun facts of how and why cemetery rules are what they are, not that we came to many conclusions!

We may or may not have gotten some cemetery rules discussed before getting distracted!
