(00:37) A pierogi crafted with love isn't just food—it's heritage on a plate. For Olive Visco, owner of Polska Laska in Sharpsburg, these Polish dumplings represent generations of maternal tradition transformed into a thriving business. Polska Laska began as pandemic pierogi pop-ups before evolving into what Olive affectionately calls her "Polish diner"—a warm, inviting space where traditional recipes meet creative innovation. The counter-service eatery serves classics like potato cheddar pierogi, but don't be surprised by adventurous variations such as buffalo chicken and bagels & lox. Along with soups to desserts, it's the signature Polish Platter that may be Olive's "claim to fame," offering generous portions of various menu items that customers often share. (18:01) Beyond the food, motherhood has shaped Olive's entrepreneurial journey. After years working in Pittsburgh's restaurant industry, becoming a mother crystallized Olive's vision for Polska Laska as a true brick and mortar. Despite initial anxiety about balancing new motherhood with restaurant ownership, she found resolve in building something meaningful for her family's future. With support from her husband Sky, who works at the restaurant daily, and parents who contribute to menu planning and decor, Polska Laska truly embodies its familial roots.Every element of the restaurant carries personal significance—from the counter built by Olive's father to the vintage dishware and art adorning the walls. Whether you're craving familiar comfort food or curious about Polish cuisine with a twist, this neighborhood gem proves that culinary innovations often begin with honoring what came before.(35:36) And later in the show, if fresh summer produce is in your future, Roxanne Easley shares her veggie-packed lasagna recipe to put garden abundance to good use.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Alexander Rossino, who holds a PH.D in history from Syracuse University, and is the author of Their Maryland: The Army of Northern Virginia from the Potomac Crossing to Sharpsburg in September 1862. Dr. Rossino's book seeks to supply answers to a number of questions that still surround the whys and wherefores of the Sharpsburg/Antietam Battle. One of these questions is why did General Lee take his army into Maryland? One traditionally offered reason still stands true, Lee wanted to take the war out of Virginia to allow the state's farmers to harvest their crops. More important, though, Lee's decision for Maryland focused on a major political aspect of the war, expanding the Confederacy.

In Episode 20 of The Halloween Podcast, host Lyle Perez explores the haunted landscapes of Maryland, a state filled with rich history and chilling ghost stories. Known as the Old Line State, Maryland has witnessed centuries of dark events, from battlefields still echoing with cannon fire to haunted houses filled with restless spirits.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Alexander Rossino, who holds a PH.D in history from Syracuse University, and is the author of Their Maryland: The Army of Northern Virginia from the Potomac Crossing to Sharpsburg in September 1862. Dr. Rossino's book seeks to supply answers to a number of questions that still surround the whys and wherefores of the Sharpsburg/Antietam Battle. One of these questions is why did General Lee take his army into Maryland? One traditionally offered reason still stands true, Lee wanted to take the war out of Virginia to allow the state's farmers to harvest their crops. More important, though, Lee's decision for Maryland focused on a major political aspect of the war, expanding the Confederacy. Lee brought his army into Maryland in an attempt to exploit what was thought to be the ardor of many Marylanders to join the Confederate States of America. In essence, Dr. Rossino explains, the army carried a message from Richmond that amounted to "we have come to welcome you into our new nation, if you so choose, and we are ready to spill the army's blood to protect you if you choose to join." As things worked out, relatively few Confederates rallied to the offer from Lee and the Confederacy. Indeed, after some of the bloodiest fighting in U.S. history, Lee's army fought the Army of the Potomac to a draw, and was able to withdraw back across the Potomac to safety in Virginia. Another question that always arises about Lee's actions is why did Lee and his army go into western Maryland rather than eastern Maryland along the Atlantic shore? This area, after all, was known to have strong supporters of the Confederacy and most of the state's slaves. Lee's motivation on this score was pretty clear cut, had he moved east he would have cleared a path for Union forces to sweep into the heart of Virginia. There is of course much more to answering both of these questions, and Dr. Rossino's book tells a fuller and more detailed story for each of them, as well as for several of the other major questions that are still asked about Lee's invasion of Maryland. Dr. Rossino is an excellent speaker and tells his story in very clear and concise terms. It was our pleasure to speak with and learn from him. Dr. Rossino's other Civil War-era books include: Calamity at Frederick; The Tale Untwisted: George McClellan and the Discovery of Lee's lost Order (co-author Gene M. Thorp); Six Days in September, A Novel of Lee's Army in Maryland; and the forthcoming, The Guns of September, McClelland's Army in Maryland,1862. All of the books are published by and available from America's top Civil War publishing house, Savas Beattie, as well as from Amazon and many other booksellers.

The Drinking Partners are kind of a big deal now. Buses in their hometown have Ed and Day's faces on the side of them. But has the fame gotten to their oversized, 6-foot tall heads? Hardly. They're still men of the people–certainly not the types to turn down booze out of a mason jar. Which is good, because that's how Erika Turner [4:50], co-founder and CEO of TLC Libations, has prepared some in-studio cocktails for this week's episode. Turner is the daughter half of the mother-daughter ownership team behind Western PA's first Black-owned woman distillery. The interview swings from bartending for picky martini drinkers, to making sangria for First Friday art crawls, to moving cocktails by the kegful, with ingredients like tequila, pomegranate, and cranberry thyme honey syrup. It's a classic conversation with the Drinking Partners, proving the pair remain, as Ed puts it, “upstanding citizens who like to uplift our community and drink while we're doing it.”  All that has changed is that they'll accept shots of Glenvlivet in lieu of Hennessy. Buy them some at the next Ed and Day in the Burgh watch party, and maybe, just maybe, Day will share his recipe for crunk juice with you.   Guest: Erika Turner, co-founder and CEO of TLC Libations.

The experiences of hundreds of free and enslaved people of color who witnessed and took part in the Battle of Antietam, one of America's bloodiest battles, have never been shared in depth until now. Join us on this week's PreserveCast as we talk with author Dr. Emilie Amt about her book Black Antietam: African Americans and the Civil War. Emilie will give us a glimpse into her book and the African American perspectives in Sharpsburg before, during, and after the Battle of Antietam and the Civil War. Dr. Emilie Amt is an award-winning writer on the African American history of western Maryland. A Maryland native, Emilie is an emeritus professor of history at Hood College in Frederick. She spent much of her career as a medieval historian, but since 2010, her research has focused on slavery in Washington County, where she lives. Her most recent book, published by The History Press, is Black Antietam: African Americans and the Civil War in Sharpsburg (available for purchase here). She is on the board of the Friends of Tolson's Chapel, a National Historic Landmark in Sharpsburg, and is a founding director of the Friends of Halfway African American Cemetery, in Hagerstown.   Learn more: https://emilieamt.com/ Purchase Book: https://www.arcadiapublishing.com/Products/9781467150729

“I feel like the best art in the world creates conversation,” says artist Corey Ochai [4:17], founder and CEO of 1028 Studios, and there's no pair better to chop it with than the Drinking Partners. Ochai, who listeners might recognize as the creative director of America's best Black arts and craft beer festival, Barrel & Flow, reveals to Day and Ed why he briefly lost his joy for painting: “I was trying to create something that people would like, instead of creating from something that was inside me.” The comment prompts a conversation about what inspires real, meaningful artistry, no matter the form. Alongside a Black beer history month six-pack from Chicago's Bitter Pops, these creative professionals go on to discuss everything from Basquiat, to summers at the Braddock Beach, to why you shouldn't schedule a podcast recording on your anniversary.   Guest: Corey Ochai Location: 1028 Podcast Studio, Sharpsburg, PA.  Production: Epicast.   #EdandDay in The Burgh | verylocal.com/ed-and-day-in-the-burgh-how-to-watch/   March 16 | Ed & Day in The 'Burgh Season 2 Premiere Watch Party | barrelandflow.com/events   Aug 12 | Barrel & Flow 2023 | barrelandflow.com

Just when he thought he was out, they pulled him back in. “I don't do Cajun style or Creole style,” – it's authentic New Orleans taste in the North. Mike Barnes, aka Big Easy, tells the Drinking Partners that after 20 years working in kitchens down South, he thought his days as a chef were over. Then word of his home cooking got out among friends. A few years and $10 pans of jambalaya later, he's got his own spice collection and catering company, Roux Orleans, where he's making catfish, crawfish, and gumbo so good that all you can say is “fam.” Laissez les bon temps roulez. And remember: if you see the Drinking Partners out in public, tell them you love them, buy them shots of Hennessy, but please, don't touch them.   Guest: Roux Orleans owner Mike Barnes.

Krysti starts us off with the story of Tippecanoe Place in South Bend, IN. This residence was built by the Studebakers and was one of the fanciest homes in the city at the time. Cue some poor money handling and the property was then sent through a series of owners till it's current iteration as a restaurant today. And what have we learned about old houses that have changed hands many times? You want ghosts…you know the rest. Tori tells a story she has been hinting about for months at this point, The Battle of Sharpsburg, otherwise known as Antietam. This was the single most bloody one day battle of the Civil War and opened the door for Lincoln to enact the Emancipation Proclamation. This battle was absolutely brutal and was technically a draw but it was the battle that sent Gen Robert E Lee hightailing it back down South. Needless to say, the land remembers and seems to make sure that we do too. And of course Tori had to mention the cemetery. Also, the Confederates learned the lesson of not leaving battle plans just lying around.Our Sources: Publichistory.iupui.edu, Tippe.com, Indianahauntedhouses.com, Enterprise.com, Michaelkleen.com, battlefields.org, history.com, nps.gov, militaryghosts.com, ghoststory.co.uk, fhwa.dot.govOur theme music: “Danse Macabre - Busy Strings" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/Support our show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/trendylobotomypodcast Find us at FB/Instagram @TrendyLobotomyPod and at Twitter @TrendyPod as well as our blog trendylobotomypodcast.blogspot.com Support the show

Today, The Two Mikes had a great conversation with the Civil War historian Steven Cowie about his new book, "When Hell Came to Sharpsburg: The Battle of Antietam and its Impact on the Civilians Who Called it Home", which was published in July, 2022. 
Mr. Cowie explained that there have been many fine histories of the battle of Antietam (September, 1862), but that the civilians of Sharpsburg, MD, and other civilians living nearby the Antietam battlefield, have been left without any detailed examination of the battle's impact on them.Mr. Cowie's book is unique and uniquely interesting; it is the product of 15 years of research and 3 years of writing. Mr. Cowie has again proved that there always is something new and important to say about the U.S. Civil War.
Mr. Cowie's book When Hell Came to Sharpsburg: The Battle of Antietam and its Impact on the Civilians Who Called it Home was published by SavasBeattie in July 2022. The book is available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Powell's Books, and Abebooks. “Listening to Two Mikes will make you smarter!”- Gov Robert L. Ehrlich, JrSponsors

Today, The Two Mikes had a great conversation with the Civil War historian Steven Cowie about his new book, "When Hell Came to Sharpsburg: The Battle of Antietam and its Impact on the Civilians Who Called it Home", which was published in July, 2022. Mr. Cowie explained that there have been many fine histories of the battle of Antietam (September, 1862), but that the civilians of Sharpsburg, MD, and other civilians living nearby the Antietam battlefield, have been left without any detailed examination of the battle's impact on them. The battle ruined crops just before the harvest and so left the farmers without a crop to market. Likewise, their fields were left covered with thousands of dead men and large numbers of dead horses. After Lee's Army Northern of Northern Virginia retreated, the Army of the Potomac buried the dead and some of the dead horses in quickly drug trenches on the battlefield, thereby leaving the fields unfit for the next spring's planting. In addition, the underground ground-water system of the area around the battlefield and Sharpsburg was found to move water across the area and the contaminants coming from the decaying dead bodies and animals were moved throughout the area and more of it problematic for agriculture. Finally, the 75,000 men, 20,000 army animals, and large herds of cattle belonging to the Army of the Potomac remained encamped on the fields of Sharpsburg for six weeks following the battle, and thereby contributed enormous amounts of human and animal waste to the already existing disaster for the area's groundwater and agricultural grounds. After the war, families in the Sharpsburg area petitioned the U.S. Congress for compensation for the damage done by the Army of the Potomac. A few families received some compensation, others received something of the run around. Mr. Cowie's book is unique and uniquely interesting; it is the product of 15 years of research and 3 years of writing. Mr. Cowie has again proved that there always is something new and important to say about the U.S. Civil War.

Unless otherwise noted, all Web addresses mentioned were functional as of 5-20-22. TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the weeks of May 23 and May 30, 2022.  This episode, marking the Memorial Day holiday observed this year on May 30, repeats an episode first done in 2015. MUSIC – ~17 sec – instrumental. That tune, composed during the U.S. Civil War, sets the stage for a water-related exploration of the origin of Memorial Day.  Have a listen to the music for about 35 more seconds. MUSIC – ~35 sec – instrumental. You've been listening to a version of “All Quiet Along the Potomac Tonight,” recorded by Chloe Benner and Stewart Scales.  The tune was composed in 1863 by John Hill Hewitt.  The title, and the lyrics associated with the tune, are from “The Picket Guard,” a poem by Ethel Lynn Beers, published in 1861.  The poem relates the loneliness, homesickness, and then sudden death of a rank-and-file soldier patrolling the dark, wooded, and deceptively quiet Potomac riverbank.  As a similar tragic fate befell tens of thousands of Civil War soldiers along rivers, ridges, and battle lines in Virginia and elsewhere, surviving family and friends began honoring fallen soldiers by decorating their graves with flowers, especially during spring.  The practice grew across both North and South, eventually becoming a spring tradition known as “Decoration Day.” On May 5, 1868, Gen. John Logan called for Decoration Day to be an annual, national holiday on May 30, and the first national ceremony was held that year in Arlington National Cemetery, near the banks of the Potomac.  After World War I, the annual observance began to include honoring those who had died in all U.S. military conflicts.  In 1971, Congress declared Memorial Day an official national holiday, to occur on the last Monday of May. Memorial Day invokes very personal and local expressions of honor and remembrance, true to the holiday's origin of individuals decorating Civil War graves with flowers.  In that spirit, we close this tribute to Memorial Day with about 25 seconds of “Flowers of the Forest,” by No Strings Attached, from their 2002 album, “Old Friend's Waltz.” MUSIC – ~26 sec – instrumental.

Logan of the Grand Army of the Republic issued General Order Number 11 designating May 30 as a memorial day ‘for the purpose of strewing with flowers or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village, and hamlet churchyard in the land.' “The first national celebration of the holiday took place May 30, 1868, at Arlington National Cemetery, where both Confederate and Union soldiers were buried.  Originally known as Decoration Day, at the turn of the century it was designated as Memorial Day.  In many American towns, the day is celebrated with a parade. “Southern women decorated the graves of soldiers even before the Civil War's end.  Records show that by 1865, Mississippi, Virginia, and South Carolina all had precedents for Memorial Day.  Songs in the Duke University collection Historic American Sheet Music include hymns published in the South such as these two from 1867: ‘Kneel Where Our Loves are Sleeping,' dedicated to ‘The Ladies of the South Who are Decorating the Graves of the Confederate Dead,' and ‘Memorial Flowers,' dedicated ‘To the Memory of Our Dead Heroes.' “When a women's memorial association in Columbus, Mississippi, decorated the graves of both Confederate and Union soldiers on April 25, 1866, this act of generosity and reconciliation prompted an editorial piece, published by Horace Greeley's New York Tribune, and a poem by Francis Miles Finch, ‘The Blue and the Grey,' published in the Atlantic Monthly.  The practice of strewing flowers on soldiers' graves soon became popular throughout the reunited nation. “President Lyndon Johnson proclaimed Waterloo, New York, as the ‘Birthplace of Memorial Day,' because it began a formal observance on May 5, 1866.  However, Boalsburg, Pennsylvania, also claims to have held the first observance, based on an observance dating back to October 1864.  Indeed, many other towns also lay claim to being the first to hold an observance. “In 1971, federal law changed the observance of the holiday to the last Monday in May and extended the honor to all soldiers who died in American wars.  A few states continue to celebrate Memorial Day on May 30. “Today, national observance of the holiday still takes place at Arlington National Cemetery with the placing of a wreath on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the decoration of each grave with a small American flag.  Protocol for flying the American flag on Memorial Day includes raising it quickly to the top of the pole at sunrise, immediately lowering it to half-staff until noon, and displaying it at full staff from noon until sunset. … “Many veterans of the Vietnam War, and relatives and friends of those who fought in that conflict, make a pilgrimage over Memorial Day weekend to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., where they pay their respects to another generation of fallen soldiers.” SOURCES USED FOR AUDIO AND OFFERING MORE INFORMATION On the History of Memorial Day Library of Congress, “Today in History—May 30/Memorial Day,” online at https://www.loc.gov/item/today-in-history/may-30/.
