    Ep. 31 - A Fish That Follows

    We're off to the waterfront town of Brighton, Ontario, my Freshwater Friends, for a visit with our Uncle Gordon. Here, we'll learn exactly why we must never break his one rule. As we find ourselves becoming part of a tale that winds us through the entire Great Lakes system. As it continues it's seemingly endless journey About The Water.

    Ep. 30 - Eclairs et Tonnerre

    Bonjour, my Freshwater Friends. We're off to Milwaukee, for a cruise along the beautiful Lake Michigan shoreline. Here, we'll experience a phenomenon that occurs without warning. Or explanation. As lightning rips and thunder rolls About The Water.

  3. 30

    Ep. 29 - Silent Barques

    We're Lake Huron bound, my Freshwater Friends. To an historic lighthouse on the tip of Michigan's thumb. Here, we'll learn a couple of important things about ghosts. One, if they are in fact real, they are deserving of our respect. Second, sometimes they come with ghosts of their own. Protecting one another, as their intertwined lives continue to write their stories About The Water.

  4. 29

    Ep. 28 - November Over Charlie

    Today we hop aboard a work in progress, as our worn out trawler does it's best to get us across Henderson Bay, Eastern Lake Ontario. Here, we'll find ourselves a bit in over our heads, both physically and metaphysically. As radio waves carrying a strange, strange message echo About The Water.

  5. 28

    Ep. 27 - The Distant Heard

    Every square inch of this world seems to be cataloged and readily available online. However, we may have found an exception. Deep in the woods of Northern Lake Superior, outside of Terrace Bay, Ontario, we stumble upon a point of interest that is not exactly common knowledge. A hidden anomaly known only to those of us who search  for strangeness as we wander About The Water.

  6. 27

    Ep. 26 - Make Time, Always

    Into the wetlands we go, for a walk and talk, through Lake Erie's Maumee Bay State Park, in Oregon, Ohio. Here, the worldly will keep stride with the otherworldly, as they stroll in perfect unison About The Water.

  7. 26

    Ep. 25 - Orbuculum Veritas

    Keep your eyes on the ball. We're headed to that world famous stretch of Lake Michigan shoreline, Chicago, Illinois. Here, we'll be taken on a mystery tour of the unknown by a guide who's never been there. As the sound of crashing thunder tears our reality wide open, and echoes outward About The Water.

  8. 25

    Ep. 24 - The Shadowpack

    In an area of the Great Lakes where population is minimal, and thick trees cover the land, we visit a beach on Presque Isle, Michigan. Here, we'll walk amongst the shadows, who's silent journeys and immortal howls will forever echo, About The Water.

  9. 24

    Ep. 23 - Recalibrating

    The Great Lakes have a way of snapping us and our lives back into place. But what happens when they don't? What happens when even the awesome power of Niagara Falls is no match for how out of place we are? As even our reflections seem lost as they wander About The Water.

  10. 23

    Ep. 22 - Unspoken

    Grab your bike, my Freshwater Friends, we're headed North! Along a Lakefront path, in Marquette Michigan, we'll receive a message. One that is silent, unspoken, and yet still echoes About The Water.

  11. 22

    Ep. 21 - The Peculiar Tale of the Five Irondequoit Voodoo Potatoes

    The title says it all. Keep an open mind, and a respectful curiosity, as our jump into the deep will undoubtedly leave ripples About The Water.

  12. 21

    Ep. 20 - Early

    A strange feeling sweeps over us as we cruise the deserted Northern shoreline of Lake Michigan. As we ask ourselves, is this place even real. It's a proposal that may not be as absurd as it sounds, as a lone motorcycle engine on a dark coastal highway echoes About The Water.

  13. 20

    Ep. 19 - The Older Kids

    We're off for some Trick-or-Treating in the Lake Erie town of Ashtabula, Ohio. It's here, where the award for best costume just might end up going to the strangers who aren't wearing one. The autumn breezes blow as the darkness begins to creep About The Water.

  14. 19

    Ep. 18 - X Changed

    Every contract assigns a debt to be paid. And as we set off for a homemade recording studio, on the Wiarton, Ontario shores of Lake Huron, we'll learn just what can be a stake when we decide to sell. A piece of our soul. As words that we once called our own cease to echo About The Water.

  15. 18

    Ep. 17 - Freighthopper

    As we wander through the woods, along the Northern shores of Lake Superior, we'll find ourselves taken by surprise by both the explainable and the unexplainable. As the sound of steel on steel does and doesn't echo About The Water.

  16. 17

    Ep. 16 - Unambiguously Unidentified

    We set sail for Lakes "M" and "O" for two stories, in which ghostly sails cut through the laws of physics, and puffing steamers defy logic, as the "U" truly finds its home About The Water.

  17. 16

    Ep. 15 - Tommy Guns and Tree Stumps

    Let's trawl the Western Islands of Lake Erie. In our nets we hope to find a, well, I guess we'll know when we see it. As the sound of screams and gunshots echo About The Water. 

  18. 15

    Ep. 14 - Sand, Sage, and Obsidian

    I can tell you that we are headed for the Southern waters of Lake Michigan, to my hometown of Chesterton, Indiana. Beyond that, what lies in store for each of us I can't really say. As I'm not sure that this story has reached its conclusion yet. As winds the still are still howling About The Water.

  19. 14

    Ep. 13 - Recalculating

  20. 13

    Ep. 12 - Off

    Shhhhh! We travel to silent and calm Lake Erie waters, to experience a transformation unlike anything we've heard so far. One that leaves not even a whisper of a voice, echoing About The Water.

  21. 12

    Ep. 11 - Number 327

    I think...we travel out onto Lake Superior, and possibly Lakes Huron, Erie, and Ontario as well, but we can't be sure. We travel here for a firsthand account of high strangeness that, if you believe it, seems to break every rule we have as to how we can move About The Water.

  22. 11

    Ep. 10 - Straightforward

    We visit two different Lakes, Michigan and Ontario, for two different straightforward ghost encounters. Encounters that may turn out to be anything but, as their retelling now echoes About The Water.

  23. 10

    Ep. 9 - Going Back

    If you could go anywhere, right now, where would you go? For now, we'll brave the winter snow and travel to New Buffalo, Michigan, on the Southeastern shores of Lake Michigan. It's here, where we'll encounter someone who may have traveled a bit farther then they should have. Someone who needs to go back. As the sound of snowy tires and revving engines echo About The Water.

  24. 9

    Ep. 8 - Cricket's Dance

    Hop in, we'll carpool through the traffic packed streets of Toronto, Ontario, on the Northwest side of Lake Ontario. Here, we'll find that our commute takes a series of unexpected turns. Turns that will leave a young woman forever remembering the spirits that dance About The Water.

  25. 8

    Ep. 7 - Winter, Nevermore

    Zip up your winter coat, we're headed to the southern shores of Lake Erie, to the city of Erie, Pennsylvania. It was here, where a young woman took an unexplainable journey. One that would forever leave her wondering exactly what happened out there About The Water.

    Ep. 6 - Heirloom

    We visit the neighbor cities of Benton Harbor and Saint Joseph, Michigan, on the Southwestern shores of Lake Michigan.Here, we'll discover a valuable item. One that you can't sell. One that you can't give away. One that you couldn't even pay to get rid of. It's a story that we hope has finally come to a conclusion, as its retelling remains just a faint echo About The Water.

  27. 6

    Ep. 5 - The Grand Bend Anomaly

    How about a late night walk through the deserted residential streets of Grand Bend, Ontario? A small town located on the Southeastern shores of Lake Huron. Here, we'll experience a phenomenon not easily categorized. A strange encounter that leaves us unsettled, as it quite literally echoed About The Water.

  28. 5

    Ep. 4 - Lemonade

    We're off to the legendary and iconic Manistee, Michigan, on the Western shores of Lake Michigan. It is here where one particular story of high strangeness just might forever change our very definition of high strangeness, as it's retelling forever echoes About The Water.
