From Kate:I was born in Denver and raised in a poor working family in Northeastern Colorado where I quit school my sophomore year. Later, after I had married and had a daughter, I earned a GED and then enrolled in the local community college. Six years later, I graduated from Morehead State University in Kentucky with a B.A. in English. By that time I had married a second time and while attending MSU, lived with my daughter and second husband in a rustic log cabin we built ourselves in Menifee County, Kentucky. In 1982, I came to Ohio University to begin a master's degree, thinking I would be here 2-3 years, but a second divorce necessitated getting a job, and I was hired as the university editor for OU's publications office. I also worked toward my Ph.D., and my daughter and I graduated the same weekend in June 1992--she with her high school diploma and I with my doctorate in American Literature with an emphasis in creative writing/poetry. Since then I've worked as a writer/editor in the President's Office at OU (way back under Robert Glidden): at St. Mary's College in South Bend IN; at the Ohio Historical Society, now known as the Ohio History Center, in Columbus; at the Ohioana Library, a small specialty library in Columbus that collects books by Ohio authors and about Ohio and Ohioans where I served as a book review editor for the Ohioana Quarterly; and at the College of Health Sciences and Professions back here in Athens. In 2007, I started a freelance writing/editing business called Textual Healing, which is still going strong, and in my free time, I still write book reviews for the Ohioana Quarterly and transcribe materials for the Library of Congress's Crowdsourcing program.My work has appeared in the Great River Review, Kenyon Review Online, Valparaiso Review, New Ohio Review, West Branch, and Cumberland River Review, among others. I have published two chapbooks: The Lazarus Method, under the name of Kate Hancock, by Kent State University Press as part of the Wick Poetry Chapbook Series, and Walking Off the Map, by Seven Kitchens Press. I earned my Ph.D. in American literature with an emphasis in creative writing/poetry from Ohio University, and I currently live in Athens, Ohio with my partner, Robert DeMott, and two English setters: Maddie & Katie.Support the show (http://www.thatswhatshesaid970wath.com)

Episode 13: “Ohio v. Conspiracy” (Roswell, the WaterCar, JFK) We sit down 3 guests and discuss three of Ohio’s most fascinating conspiracy cases. First we meet with author Ray Szymanski and we talk about the connection between the Roswell UFO incident in 1947 and Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio. Ray, who worked at Wright Patt for 38 years, has traveled the world investigating the alien phenomenon and talks to us about Ohio’s connection to extraterrestrials. (4:30) Check out Ray’s book ‘Fifty Shades of Greys: Evidence of Extraterrestrial Visitation to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Beyond.” https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1523383178/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0 Columbus Dispatch reporter, Dean Narciso, joins the show to discuss the little known story of Stanley Allen Meyer and his water car. Alex and Dean look at the life and invention of Stan Meyer that could have changed the world until his untimely and suspect death in 1998 in Grove City, Ohio. (23:00) Lastly, we tackled the biggest conspiracy of them all: the JFK Assassination (47:30). JFK scholar, Lane Marcus, joins the show to examine the life and death of Cleveland, Ohio’s, David Ferrie. We analysis the connection between David Ferrie, Lee Harvey Oswald and the killing of our 35th President in Dallas, TX in 1963. Mr. Marcus describes a complex plot involving the Mafia, elements of the CIA and even LBJ himself that contributed to the death of President Kennedy. Special thanks to our guest and Chief Marketing Officer of the Ohio History Connection, Jamison Pack. (41:00) Jamison and I discuss the changing of the name to the OHC from the original name the Ohio Historical Society back in 2014 and the challenges of marketing in the history world.

Episode 11: “Ohio v. Wealth” (John D. Rockefeller). We travel to Cleveland to tell the story of the richest man in the world, John D. Rockefeller and the infamous Standard Oil. Alex meets with Kevin Callahan of the Western Reserve Historical Society to discuss Rockefeller’s youth and building of the oil empire, Stndard Oil on the shores of Lake Erie. We also sit down with Cleveland attorney, Ben Wiborg, to discuss Rockefeller’s taking control of the oil industry and the muckraking journalist, Ida Tarbell, and her crusade to take down Rockefeller. As Rockefeller’s bank account grows so does the country’s hatred towards him and his Standard Oil monopoly. The Roosevelt and Taft Administrations and the Justice Dept. take Standard and Rockefeller to the Supreme Court. We chat with Cleveland-Marshall College of Law Professor, Christopher Sagers, about the US. v. Standard Oil case and the era of trustbusting. We analyze how Tarbell and the government’s takedown of Standard Oil makes John D. Rockefeller the richest man in the world. We are excited to talk with Jamison Pack, Chief Marketing Officer from the Ohio History Connection, about the new exhibit Ohio: Champion of Sports opening on March 16, 2019 at the Ohio History Center. (23:00) We talk about the future of the OHC and the future Museum of Ohio. https://www.ohiohistory.org/learn/ohio-champion-of-sports Ohio v. The World is supported by our friends at GoBus!
