On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the strange and playful hauntings of The Carolina Inn in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Built in 1924 and located on the University of North Carolina's campus, this historic hotel has long been linked to the spirit of Dr. William Jacocks—a physician who loved the inn so much, he may have never truly left. From phantom door locks to mischievous laughter in the halls, we'll explore the real history and the eerie events that have kept this place buzzing with ghostly rumors.   Tony pulls back the curtain to examine psychological explanations for the chilling events, looking at how old architecture, the power of suggestion, and a little bit of imagination might be at play. But with decades of consistent reports from guests and staff alike, the question remains: Is the Carolina Inn merely historic, or truly haunted?

Teepa’s experience in neurological impairment care spans both her personal and professional worlds. Early in her life, her grandfather moved into her family’s house due to his changing abilities. However, at the time words such as eccentric then senile were used. Later on, she helped provide support for other family members with various forms of brain change. As a teenager, Teepa started by volunteering with a group in order to work with children with various developmental disabilities. This group included her much younger sister, who had developed an inoperable brain tumor by age three, leaving her with lasting severe developmental issues. By the time she started college at Duke University, Teepa had been a nursing assistant, before there was a certification, and a volunteer in day programs and hospitals near campus. TEEPA AT GRADUATION After graduating Magna Cum Laude from Duke University with a degree in zoology, Teepa worked as a night-time desk clerk at the Carolina Inn in Chapel Hill, NC. She then went from volunteering at a day program that served elders and people with developmental disabilities to being a full-time assistant there, while she explored what she wanted to do professionally. In 1978, she entered the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill’s (UNC-CH) brand-new Occupational Therapy (OT) Master’s Program and was in its first graduating class in 1980. She gave her first speech to over 500 OTs in San Antonio, Texas, under the direction of Joan Rogers. She finished her 30-minute presentation in under 20 minutes. Lots of nervous energy, to say the least, but a great way to get over her fear of speaking in a hurry. Shortly after that, she published her first article with Joan in the official journal of the American Occupational Therapy Association. After graduation, Teepa consulted in a continuing care retirement community, two local home health companies, and a local nursing home for two years until she began working with UNC. Teepa was an interdisciplinary team member and clinical associate professor at the UNC-CH School of Medicine's Program on Aging, and a coordinator and care manager for CAP Medicaid waiver services in North Carolina. She has served in a wide variety of leadership and advisory positions in professional organizations at both the state and national levels, including the Alzheimer's Association, Alzheimer's Foundation of America, AOTA, and NBCOT. She’s currently working with a number of national and international projects and organizations. She is currently on the board of the US Dementia Action Alliance, the Alzheimers Support Network in Naples, Florida, and has been asked to join the Advisory Board of Dementia Alliance International, led by Kate Swaffer. Teepa is an advocate for those living with dementia and has made it her personal mission to help families and professionals better understand how it feels to be living with the challenges and changes that accompany various forms of the condition so that life can be lived fully and well. Her company, Positive Approach to Care, was founded in 2005 and offers education to family and professional care providers all over the world. Her training, services, and products are available through video, online education, and in-person trainings and consulting.

A two-for this week, recorded at the Carolina Inn in Chapel Hill in front of a live audience. Since the last census a decade ago, urban areas in the state have gained the population and the power. Patrick Woodie , head of the NC Rural Center, explains the push for rural broadband, Medicaid expansion, and for every last North Carolinian to be counted in 2020. Then, our WUNCPolitics Podcast regulars on the left and the right — Rob Schofield of the progressive NC Policy Watch and Becki Gray of the conservative John Locke Foundation — discuss the crowded races on the Super Tuesday primary ballot ... besides the Democratic presidential contest.

I think we were one of their very first clients, and it has truly been a life changer. They make proposals and contracts super easy to use on both our side and the client side. I think before Honeybook I would send proposals and contracts by email, and the client would have to mail the contract to us or fax it by efax. Proposals were in no way streamlined either, so this has made our lives so much better. As a consultant, whenever I sign up a vendor client, one of the very first recommendations I make is Honeybook. No need to complicate things – it works, it’s great…just get it. And if you follow this link, you get 50% off your first year of Honeybook, which is nice, but not nearly as nice as all the time you’re going to save. And if you have any questions about my experience, feel free to send me an email to megan@weddingsforreal.com.  Music for this episode by https://www.bensound.com.

Finding the right employee in any business is challenging, but it's a unique challenge in the wedding industry because it's "so glamorous".

For Steve Davis, archaeology is everywhere. “I mean, it’s literally right underneath your feet if you know what to work for,” said Davis. As the associate director of Carolina’s Research Laboratories of Archaeology, Davis leads excavations on campus. Sometimes, he knows what he’s looking for; other times, people find something they need him to inspect. That’s what happened in August when construction was happening at the Carolina Inn. On this week’s episode of Well Said, Davis discusses that discovery at the Carolina Inn and how he uses 3D technology to preserve moments in time.

This week's show looks at performances of the Nutcracker Ballet around the state, visits the holiday light show at the Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden, goes bear watching at the Pocosin Lakes Wildlife Preserve, explores the Shaffner House B&B in Winston-Salem and Deborah Holt Noel checks out the Twelve Days of Christmas display at the Carolina Inn in Chapel Hill.

It's a peach of an episode when we hit the road and head to Candor and Johnsons Peaches. The Johnsons have been growing perfect peaches for almost 80 years. Host Lisa Prince leanrs the secret of the perfect peach, and then of the perfect fried peach pie from Chef James Clark of Crossroads Restaurant in the historic Carolina Inn in Chapel Hill.
