Ep 135: The Amish

This week we had the pleasure of speaking with proud Appalachian and author Andrew K. Clark. We discuss folk legends, traditional versus self-publishing, and how Appalachia is probably one of the greatest places on earth.    Pre-order Where Dark Things grow at www.andrewkclark.com. 

This week is part one of a two part series about Ohio's Great Lake, Lake Erie

We have moved and discovered that we now live in area with a small Amish Community.  We decided that we should research and educate ourselves.  

We thought with all the legal cases flying around we would try to break it down and simplify the U.S. Justice System and process.  Were we ever wrong! What we planned to be a single episode is going to turn into a two parter (we hope). So listen up, and try to follow our ramblings as we soon discover we are in way over our heads.

WARNING: This week we will talk about medical, child and pet abuse as well as suicidal ideations. Believe it or not, we were talking about this topic long before Gypsy Rose.  We thought now would be a good time to talk about it.

This week we look into Artificial Intelligence, or AI.  We gave it our best shot but as we soon learned, we are nowhere near smart enough to figure out AI.  But, we are smart enough to know that few people can.  Especially folks trying to regulate and write laws governing AI.  We don't feel so bad anymore.

We are back!!! What a year it has been! Better listen to this episode to catch up on what has happened. 

This may become a tradition for An Hour of Your Life.  This episode is dedicated to the cities from where the teams playing in the Super Bowl are from. This year we are featuring Kansas City and Philadelphia.

In this episode we get into the power grid in the United States and North America.  Complicated, bureaucratic, vulnerable and vital. Plus, as a bonus, we talk about the Zimmer Power Plant near Cincinnati, Ohio. 

This is another one of those topics that you don't know what you don't know.  Who would have thought there is a history to the practice of Tailgating. Go Bengals!!!
