Folks today we head to the Spooky Side of History. We go in search of the Southern myth and legend of the “Bell Witch” with Author and Historian Pat Fitzhugh. This is one of the most documented haunts in American History, and for good reason. It will not only send some chills down your spine but is also a fantastic story. We invite you to read more about Pat Fitzhugh on our Authors Corner or go over and explore his site and learn more about this haunting on his site www.bellwitch.org. Pat has written some great books on the story of The Bell Witch plus a brand new one “Ghostly Cries from Dixie”, which is sure to be a hit. He tells us one of the stories at the beginning of the show and I throw in a small teaser story at the end. What a way to spend the night!
After listening to our show head over to www.spookysouthcoast.com where my good friends will be telling ghost stories from 10PM-Midnight and you can listen live. So, listen to the Story of the Bell Witch, go grab the candy and sit back and listen to more stories Tim Weisberg, Matt Moniz and Matt Costa while getting ready for bed.
Happy Halloween!

OHP Radio – The Worlds Bloodiest History and Joseph Cummins
What a great show. We have the honor of interviewing Author Joseph Cummins about his new book “The Worlds Bloodiest History” – Massacre, Genocide and the scares they left on Civilization. We focus on the story of “The Malmedy Massacre”. Not only that we touch on more: The Boston Massacre, Mountain Meadows Massacre, Sand Creek Massacre and the Colfax Massacre. We pile a lot of information in this fast paced, high impact and informative show. You will want to hear it several times, I promise.
This is the last Saturday show for 2009, but never fear we will return in January 2010 for more stories of our forgotten history. We want to wish you and your family from ours a merry Christmas, a Happy New Year and a record setting 2010.
We will Be Here on Monday Night so don’t miss the Relic Roundup with myself, Butch Holcombe with American Digger and Ian Conway of The Research and Recovery Show. Feel free to join in the topics and give us our input - 678-369-7943 or Skype wesley.c.canderson.
Until next year or Monday folks – have a good one.

OHP Radio - Finding Slavery
Today Butch and I take a look into Slavery, its trade, its past and some items that part of our dark history left behind. You may be thinking that the advent of slavery started when the white man first set foot on North American soil but we take a deeper look into the topic. In this country the focus will always be on the Enslaved Africans and rightly so and Our History Project is proud to engage in the topics of our history and our future. This may seem like a depressing topic but as always we make history fun. So, sit back, relax and join us as we introduce another “In the Dirt with American Digger” sement.
Have a great week,
Craig

OHP Radio - Fort Donelson
This week we explore a little Civil War History and we are pleased to have a guest host on this episode. John Walsh of Fort Donelson Relics joins us as we talk to Ranger and Historian Jim Jobe at the Fort Donelson National Battlefield Park. It was great because you have 2 people that field questions all the time about the area, movements, people like Jack Henson and the campaign.
The end of the year is approaching and tax time will soon be here. Don't forget us as you are picking your Charities this year. Every cent you give to Our History Project goes back into the shows and project we are involved in.
Speaking of which, we are pleased to announce that we will be starting the next phase in Our History Project in earnest. We have been meeting with teachers at Eastlake Elementary School in McDonough, GA to start a curriculum based program that will enhance the State and National Standards. This development when completed will be available to all the schools nationwide. We will be developing not only resources that will be availed in the classroom but hands on activities as well.
We will be sponsoring a story time once a week starting in January and as we move forward we will need volunteers nationwide as we expand this project. So if you are a part of an historic organization consider signing up your group to spread the word and the stories of our America.
In closing don't forget or Monday Night shows at 10 pm eastern. More updates on Or History Project will be revealed as they happen. That show will remain a weekly broadcast. The Saturday and Wednesday show will be alternating on a two week basis so there will be 1 show each week.
