In 1872, the quiet Georgia town of Surrency became the center of one of America's strangest mysteries. Inside the home of Allen Powell Surrency, glass shattered, clocks ran backward, and furniture moved without a hand touching it. The events drew scientists, skeptics, and spiritualists, including one from Salem, Massachusetts. Was it a hoax, hysteria, or something that defied explanation? In this episode of Southern Mysteries, uncover the story of the Surrency family and the haunting that shook a town, blurred the line between faith and fear, and became one of the most documented poltergeist cases in U.S. history.

Nevada could soon rival Georgia for film production if the state passes a tax incentive similar to what we have in the Peach State; Atlanta is home to multiple interfaith organizations, but after the October 7th attack in Israel two years ago, some of those connections have fractured; and WABE's Marlon Hyde speaks with Dorian DeBarr, the President of Decide DeKalb, about steps the county is taking to help small businesses at a time of economic uncertainty.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Steve Taylor, recording artist, filmmaker and producer, is back for part two of his interview covering his directing career and recent entry as a member to the PGA (Producers Guild of America). Jay and Robbie's formative years were spent listening to Steve Taylor's music.  Then Robbie grew up, became a video media guru, crossed paths with Steve in the film world, and that's the focus of this episode's interview.  From avant-garde film school, to Donald Miller, and on to Sketch (recently in theaters), Steve's film career as a director, producer, and early adapter of Kickstarter funding is quite the adventure.   This week's Geeks takes an interesting turn…Robbie forgets to bring one!  But Art and Jay save the day, with news of Marvel exiting the Peach State and a rumor about the new (in many ways) James Bond.  Pop some popcorn and head to the movies with Steve Taylor!

“City Life, Creeping Gentrification and Flesh-eating Snakes:” now that's a gripping tagline! Josh Green, editor of Urbanize Atlanta, joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss his new novel, “Goodbye, Sweetberry Park,” which explores gentrification and urban development through the eyes of the fictional journalist, Archie “God” Johnson. From the Rust Belt to Urbanize Atlanta Green grew up in the Rust Belt and describes it as the “polar opposite of the growing Sun Belt population explosion.” As he began to explore the country, he was fascinated by the vibrance and quick growth of Atlanta and many Florida cities. Now the editor of Urbanize Atlanta, Green taps into his passion for urban development every day, providing readers with detailed perspectives on all things Atlanta. Urbanize Atlanta celebrates its fourth anniversary this year. Green said, “You get on the ground with a camera and just really explore the curiosities about what's happening and how it all links together.” Goodbye Sweetberry Park Following the success of his short story collection, “Dirtyville Rhapsodies” and first novel, “Secrets of Ash,” Green released a new novel, “Goodbye, Sweetberry Park,” earlier this year. The novel chronicles the joys and struggles of a fictional veteran journalist covering a chaotic summer in Atlanta. “It's kind of an amalgamation of a lot of different, fun, beautiful, lovely, troubled, historic intown Atlanta places ranging from West End to Cabbagetown,” said Green. “There's Grant Park mixed in, the fictional Zoo and then where I'm living now, Kirkwood and some Oakhurst.” “Goodbye Sweetberry Park” offers a more personal perspective of gentrification in Atlanta neighborhoods. Green says he draws from his experiences as an Atlanta reporter, so this novel serves as his “street-level” perspective on the topic. One of Green's early influences for the novel was an Atlanta Magazine article he wrote, “The Gentrifier.” He detailed his experience in buying a larger intown home for his family and becoming a “gentrifier” in the process. The article went on to win an Atlanta Press Association Award and sparked major conversations about modernization in the city. Green states that the neighborhood transformation that has stuck with him is the Atlanta Beltline. The trails offer alternative transportation, while restaurants and recreation are big influences for tourism to the city. As Atlanta grows and develops, the Beltline is an asset to connect residents to work, home and attractions. What About Affordable Housing? Transit-oriented development is one way that Green sees Atlanta adding affordable housing. Neighborhoods such as Candler Park are already one step ahead, converting unused MARTA parking lots into brilliant housing complexes and retail centers. With convenient proximity to local MARTA stations and rapid bus routes, residents can take transportation out of their monthly budgets, which makes housing more attainable in the long run. Tune in to the full episode to discover more about Atlanta gentrification and Green's experiences as an Atlanta journalist. Order your copy of “Goodbye, Sweetberry Park” on Amazon or at JoshRGreen.com. About Josh Green Josh Green is the editor of Urbanize Atlanta, a popular news site known for its colorful, up-close coverage of Atlanta. In March 2025, he released his second book, Goodbye, Sweetberry Park,” a brand-new story behind “Secrets of Ash,” the first installation in his Peach-State trilogy. “Dirtyville Rhapsodies,” his published book of short stories, was highly acclaimed from the start, named “Best Book for the Beach” by Men's Health and in Atlanta Magazine's “Top 10 Books of 2013.” Podcast Thanks Thank you to Denim Marketing for sponsoring Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio.

The Badgers are making headlines both on the field and in the courtroom. First up: four-star wide receiver Jayden Petit kicked off a massive week for Wisconsin's 2026 recruiting class, bringing elite speed and Florida flair to the offense. Just days later, four-star running back Amari Latimer followed suit, adding power and explosiveness from the Peach State. Together, they form a dynamic one-two punch that instantly elevates the Badgers' offensive future and pushes the 2026 class into national relevance. But that's not all—Wisconsin is also making waves off the field by suing Miami over the transfer of defensive back Xavier Lucas. The Badgers are alleging tampering and NIL interference in what could become a precedent-setting legal battle. We're breaking down the film, the fallout, and the future of recruiting and roster building in this jam-packed episode.Follow the show on Twitter: https://x.com/TheBuckyReportFollow Rajeev on Twitter: https://x.com/RajeevBadgersFollow Justin on Twitter: https://x.com/BuckyReportJJHelp The Bucky Report get some feedback!

Welcome back to another episode of the Hangin' with the AD Podcast, where we sit down with athletic directors and leaders who are shaping the future of high school sports. Today, we're excited to bring on someone who knows a thing or two about building championship-level programs—both on the field and in the front office.We're joined today by Jason Brett, the athletic director and assistant principal at Houston County High School in Warner Robins, Georgia. And yes, for those listening outside the Peach State—it's HOW-ston, not Houston like the city in Texas.Jason is a hometown product, originally from Perry, Georgia, and his journey through athletics is about as well-rounded as they come. From playing baseball at Valdosta State and in the Mets organization, to coaching at the collegiate level, to winning two state championships as the head baseball coach at Houston County—Jason has done it all. And now, he's helping lead one of the top all-around athletic programs in the state.We're going to talk with Jason about that transition from coaching to administration, how to build standards that last, and what it means to lead with connection and consistency. So let's settle in and get to know Coach Jason Brett.

In March, a convicted murderer was released from the Clayton County Jail by mistake. The family of his victim and Clayton County officials say they were not alerted until days later. The inmate was eventually apprehended almost three weeks later, not far from the Florida hometown of his victim’s family. Today we’re asking, how often are inmates released by mistake, who should be held accountable and what process should be in place for alerting the public, especially the victim’s family? Defense attorney David West returns to “Closer Look” to give his legal take. Plus, there has been an increase in data centers being built across the Peach State, prompting many questions. Today, we preview WABE’s new series, “Server South.” The series explores what data centers are and why the industry has honed in on Georgia to plant roots. For “Closer Look’s” Class of 2025 graduation series, we hear from Ivy Nganga. The Oglethorpe University graduate majored in economics and minored in math. She talks with Rose about her academic journey, including plans to pursue a PhD and her long-term aspirations to help women in Kenya.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

CareYaya is a healthcare tech startup that connects college students with families in need of caregiving services. Neal K. Shah, the co-founder and CEO of CareYaya, and Hannah Imolode, a CareYaya Joygiver and student at Georgia State University, discuss how CareYaya is celebrating seniors in Georgia and across the country through a Mother's Day Initiative. Georgia's TV and film industry generates more than $4 billion to the state’s economy. The state’s film tax credit incentive has attracted big budget production companies. However, many smaller and independent companies don't benefit from the incentive, and recently there’s been a decline in productions being filmed in the Peach State. For Feedback Friday of “Closer Look,” host Rose Scott talks with people directly impacted by the shift and takes calls from listeners. Guests include: Sade Wilkins, an Atlanta-based producer and writer, Tabari Sturdivant, a director and producer, Kelsey Coggin, an Atlanta-based travel coordinator, and L.M. Davis, a director and filmmaker.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

According to the Georgia Department of Economic Development, there are currently 26 movies and TV shows being filmed in the Peach State. However, the CEO and founder of Georgia Entertainment says Georgia may be facing a “distinctive shift in its film production output.” This comes as President Trump recently proposed a 100% tariff on films produced outside the United States. WABE business reporter Marlon Hyde discusses his latest reporting on Georgia’s film industry, Georgia’s film tax incentive and the actions some filmmakers are taking. Plus, from Dubai to the United States, Sumayyah Yoonas, a 2025 Georgia Gwinnett College graduate, once had dreams of becoming a doctor. But that desire changed during the pandemic. For “Closer Look’s” Class of 2025 graduation series, Yoonas shares the many events leading to a degree in middle school education.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Georgia GOP Chairman Josh McKoon explains why collapsing early voting by Democrats in the Peach State mean it should be friendlier territory for Donald Trump than it was four years ago. Then, historian Larry Schweikart talks about both the trends in Arizona and nationwide, laying out why, if voter registration means anything at all, it should signal that a Trump win is imminent.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
