State borders are the new front lines in the nation's abortion battle. On this encore episode of Us & Them, host Trey Kay looks at the evolving geography of abortion. Since a 2022 U.S. Supreme Court decision overturned federal abortion rights, 21 states have either banned or restricted abortion access, including West Virginia. Meanwhile, West Virginia's neighbor, Maryland, is one of 22 states that are protecting abortion rights and expanding access. Kay follows the decision of Women's Health Center of West Virginia to move its abortion services from Charleston to a new clinic just over the border near Cumberland, Maryland. The move was intentional because Western Maryland, like West Virginia, is a so-called abortion desert. The two regions have some deep political and cultural similarities. Western Maryland Republicans say they feel ignored by the overwhelmingly liberal, Democratic legislature in Annapolis. They say the new abortion clinic is not wanted or needed in their part of Maryland, and they blame the clinic's presence on the fallout from Roe v. Wade's defeat. This Us & Them episode was recently honored by the Virginias Associated Press Broadcasters as Best Podcast of 2024.

The Ghost Furnace - Episode 120 “Western Maryland Folklore w/ Susan Fair”   This week we sit down with author and researcher Susan Fair to talk about some of Western Maryland's most interesting stories. Focusing mainly on a few of the stranger creatures reported we are able to highlight both some familiar elements along with some new perspectives. As we often find with the more fantastical side of the cryptid spectrum, the more you dig into these creatures, the more we learn about ourselves. By putting these denizens of the four westernmost counties in this diverse state in context of the past, we learn about the present.    You can find Susan's books anywhere quality books are sold  -American Witches: A Broomstick Tour through Four Centuries -Maryland Spells: An Incomplete Compendium of Magic Spells and Superstitions From the Old Line State  -Mysteries and Lore of Western Maryland: Snallygasters, Dogmen and other Mountain Tales If you have a story you'd like to share, you can reach out to us on Instagram, YouTube or TheGhostFurnacePodcast@gmail.com

Matt Crawford speaks with Andrew Holter about his book, Going Around: Selected Journalism Murray Kempton. A courtly man of Southern roots, Murray Kempton worked as a labor reporter for the New York Post, won a Pulitzer Prize while at Newsday, and was arrested at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago along the way. He wore three piece suits and polished oxfords and was known for riding his bicycle around New York City while listening to his CD Walkman and smoking a pipe with wild red hair that later turned white. He developed a taste for baroque prose and became, in the words of Robert Silvers, his editor at The New York Review of Books, ''unmatched in his moral insight into the hypocrisies of politics and their consequences for the poor and powerless.'' He went to court proceedings and traffic accidents and funerals and to speeches by people who either were or wanted to be rich and famous. He wrote about everything and anybody—Tonya Harding and Warren Harding, Fidel Castro and Mussolini, Harry Truman and Sal Maglie, St. Francis of Assisi and James Joyce and J. Edgar Hoover. From dispatches from a hardscrabble coal town in Western Maryland, a bus carrying Freedom Riders through Mississippi, an Iowa cornfield with Nikita Krushchev, an encampment of guerrillas in El Salvador, and Moscow at the end of the Soviet Union (these last two assignments filed by a reporter in his 70s), Kempton's concerns and interests were extraordinarily broad. He wrote about subjects from H.L. Mencken to Tupac Shakur; organized labor and McCarthyism; the Civil Rights and Black Power movements; presidential hopefuls and Mafiosi; frauds and failures of all stripes; the “splendors and miseries” of life in New York City.

“The day Sloan Cooper died began before dawn and ended shortly before midnight. As a corporal in the Natural Resources Police, she'd helped take down a trio of men who spent most of the fall harassing, robbing and assaulting hikers on the trails in the Western Maryland mountains.”

The worst thing imaginable happened to Bob Arnold and his wife Jeanne in 2002. They were getting ready for bed and a coroner calls. Their 23-year-old daughter Marcie was found dead in her apartment nearly 500 miles away. Marcie, a vibrant young woman who was just getting established in North Myrtle Beach, S.C., was talking with a friend on the phone when the conversation went silent. She had suffered QT prolongation, sudden death from cardiac arrest, a rare occurrence that afflicts people with arrythmia, or irregular heartbeat. It is a tragedy that no parent should have to endure. But rather than get angry or go into denial, Bob and Jeanne chose another route to confront their suffering. "I knew one thing that had to happen in order to do that ... is to really be honest about what's going on," Bob said. "Trying to think of all the ways to try to rationalize this or deal with this, I knew none of those were reality." Bob started journaling. In the first three years after Marcie's death, he wrote 1,300 pages to help him "sort through the depths of despair" he was feeling. Those reflections turned into a book authored by Bob and Jeanne called When the Circle is Broken: Our Journey Through Deep Sorrow and Surprising Joy in the Loss of Our Daughter. The suffering also led Bob to ministry. The Arnolds now have a 70-acre farm in Western Maryland named Marcie's Meadow, which serves the ministry. They help people who are facing illness, death, divorce, or family difficulties find the joyous hand of God in their sorrow. "God doesn't take away the pain, but the pain continually became a healing agent," he said. "It (keeps) shaping and reforming and reforming, and in the process, we meet this compassionate and caring God." Bob's spirituality is evident in this week's episode of Chiseled. He tells a profound story of sorrow and joy and shares a path to healing that we can all follow.  Bob's ministry is available to anyone who needs a lift. He can be reached at his email or phone number, which he shares at the end of the episode. Meanwhile, you can check out his ministry at his website, meadow4.org.   

This afternoon, Joe and David started a conversation about our education system and how it has been undermined by a leftist agenda. The pair first examined how Chicago public schools are being directed to pass migrant students, even if they have failed. They also pointed out a case in which parents are suing their school district because students were roomed with the opposite sex, with the transgender agenda taking precedence over children's safety and comfort. After a short break, Joe and David welcomed guest Shaun Porter to the show. Shaun Porter is a 45-year-old Western Maryland native with two sons—one is a professional firefighter, and the other is a 5-year-old deaf child. Porter has been active in civil rights matters since 1995 and currently shares his First Amendment activism on YouTube and TikTok, where he has garnered over 1 billion views since 2020. Porter is currently laser-focused on political and school board corruption in Washington County, Maryland. Together, the three discussed how Shaun confronted his school board after they allowed his deaf son to be bullied and abused by classmates. Following Shaun's departure, Joe and David turned their attention to the second would-be assassin and how the DOJ recklessly released his letter, which called for a $150,000 bounty to be placed on Trump, before closing in prayer.

Links from the show:* The Enemy Harassed: Washington's New Jersey Campaign of 1777* Connect with Jim* Leave a 5-Star ReviewAbout my guest:Jim Stempel is a speaker, novelist, and author of numerous articles and nine books regarding history, spirituality, and warfare. For over thirty years he has had the good fortune of living with his family at a country location in Western Maryland overlooking the Blue Ridge. His wife, Sandie, is on staff at nearby McDaniel College where she is a professor of astronomy and physics, while his three children—a daughter and two sons—have moved on to professional careers.An avid athlete for most of his life, Stempel helped coach his children in basketball and baseball while they were young, while active as a runner and handball player himself. He was born and raised in Westfield, New Jersey, and is a graduate of The Citadel, Charleston, S.C.Jim is considered an authority on the Eastern campaigns of the American Civil War, as well as the politics and engagements of the American Revolution. His book, The Nature of War: Origins and Evolution of Violent Conflict, has been well received by an international audience for its wide grasp of human conflict, its willingness to delve into the basic motivations of human warfare, and the true prospects for peace those motivations suggest.Stempel's other published works reflect a wide range of interests, with numerous articles appearing in such varied journals as Concepts in Human Development, New Times, North & South, History Net, History News Network, War History Online, The Edge, and New Dawn Magazine, among others. Many of his historical pieces have been selected to reappear on the highly respected, Real Clear History.When Beliefs Fail, Jim's nonfiction analysis of science, psychology, and modern spirituality, brought high praise from fellow authors Ken Wilber, Dr. Larry Dossey, and Mark Waldman. His novel Albemarle was nominated for the James Fenimore Cooper Prize in Historical Fiction. The West Coast Review of Books wrote of his novel American Rain, “Lovers of political satire may consider this book a masterpiece because of Stempel's sly wit and insight.”Jim's historical novel, Windmill Point – a Chanticleer Awards Finalist – brings to life one of the most exciting and critical periods of the American Civil War. Of American Hannibal, his nonfiction account of the Battle of Cowpens during the Revolutionary War, one critic wrote: “As one who reviewed Jim Stempel's Windmill Point, I was again drawn into a fascinating story, told by a master historian, writer, and a man with the painter's palette that left me with a most wonderful read.”Stempel has now followed-up the success of American Hannibal with a new nonfiction work, Valley Forge to Monmouth: Six Transformative Months of the American Revolution, due out in October 2020. Pre-Release reviews have to date been excellent. John McElroy, for instance, historian, author, and Professor Emeritus at the University of Arizona, writes “Anyone interested in knowing what America's independence from Britain required should read this book.”Jim's focus for over thirty years has been to present thoughtful literature, along with historical accounts – accurately and enjoyably – to the widest range of readers possible; a mission he intends to continue.

Jacob Hannah grew up in a coal mining family in West Virginia. He saw the slow loss of coal jobs in the area, as well as the costs associated with mining and extraction in communities and the broader region. Jacob moved through his own journey – leading with curiosity – to working with communities, creating new opportunities for projects leading with innovation and sustainability, and building resilient communities based on the vision and ideas of local leaders. Jacob talks about listening to people as they are the experts in their own community, and building relationships and trust to create life-sustaining jobs and regenerative ecosystems.   Jacob Hannah is the Chief Conservation Officer at Coalfield Development, which is based in Huntington, West Virginia. This innovative organization is working to rebuild the Appalachian economy from the ground up, and Jacob is a core part of this precedent setting work in Central Appalachia.    Jacob graduated as a first generation student in Business Management from Garrett College and holds a Bachelor degree in Management for Sustainability from Bucknell University. Jacob also studied cultural sustainability in France and Scotland, and spent 3 years testing triple-bottom line sustainability concepts for coal towns in central Pennsylvania, and social sustainability programs in Western Maryland. He enjoys spending his time writing music on his guitar and piano, getting lost in the woods, spending time with his family, and harvesting fresh dank memes from the internet.   “Scarcity creates value. The less you have of something, the more exclusive it becomes.”   Topics: (5:00) What led Jacob down the path of becoming a conservation officer from growing up in a coal mining family (12:10) How Jacob's background helps him see renewable energy solutions from a both/and perspective (16:50) The best way to let people's expertise come to the surface instead of pushing your ideas onto them (21:05) Shifts in the Appalachia community that have strengthened the bond between community members (32:20) Jacob's vision and hopes for Appalachia in the next 10 - 50 years (40:22) Quick roller questions for Jacob   Links mentioned: Coalfield Development: https://coalfield-development.org/ Jacob Hannah on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacob-hannah-9b608642 The Yes!

Hi Soothers! Have you ever heard about energy work, energy clearing, grounding or protection and wondered exactly, uh, what it is, how it works, and how you can start doing it? Today your questions are answered, as I have a lovely, in-depth interview with Missy Toy Ozeas, an energy worker and intuitive I work with on a regular basis and who teaches energy work and protection methods to highly sensitive people and empaths. Missy and I dive into what exactly energy is; how you can clear and protect your energy; what an energy worker can do for you; how, when Missy is working on me and my energy in DC, from her place in California, how that works and what it looks like. It's a very cool and practical episode that explains how this intangible and hard-to-describe process of energy healing really works.You can find missy @missyenergyhealing on Instagram and www.missyenergyhealing.com/I'm hosting a New Year's retreat in Western Maryland!

Hi Soothers! Today I'm joined by my upcoming New Year's Eve retreat co-host, Kelly Barrett. This will be the third retreat that Kelly and I have led, and we'd thought to celebrate, we'd share our own transformative experiences with retreats we've been on, the reasons it's so lovely and nourishing for hyper-responsible HSPs to go to a retreat where literally everything is taken care of for you, the power of intentional rest and time dedicated to your own self-discovery and goal-setting, and more. We also go into exactly what we'll be doing at the retreat, soothe any worries our fellow introverts or socially anxious people might have, and just have a good chat! Ready to sign up?

Happy Sunday, Soothers! This week, I had a massive realization, which was also like, obvious, but sometimes it lands different, ya know? Anyways, the realization: I am the first female entrepreneur in my entire lineage (that I'm aware of). I am also the first unmarried woman in my entire lineage (that I'm aware of). I paired the two realizations and it hit me like a ton of bricks: I am meant in this lifetime to achieve what my mother, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, great-great-grandmothers and beyond could not because of the patriarchy: earn my own money from my heart's work, make that money MINE and MINE alone, learn to expertly manage the money on my own without the support (or interference/exploitation) of a man, and then share and teach this with others. I don't know about you, but the majority of the women in my lineage were stay-at-home-moms and housewives, who, if and when they did enter the career field, it was to support their husband's work and visions. And I'm here to birth a new possibility.Anybody who is interested in career, entrepreneurship, money management, and you need an extra boost of motivation and understanding, tune into this episode to reflect on what your ancestors who were women might want you to understand and learn about money in ways that they were not permitted to. I'm hosting a New Year's retreat in Western Maryland!

Hi Soothers! Today I talk about what it means to build and create and repair a relationship with the most important person in your life: yourself. I share why it can be so hard to know ourselves, our own desires, who we are, and give five practical tips on how to begin re-building and re-discovering this relationship with our Self, because it is totally doable.I'm hosting a New Year's retreat in Western Maryland!

Hi Soothers! This week, I and the 26 women in the first-ever cohort of Soothe close out our year together. As we do so, I was reflecting on my biggest lessons on healing and takeaways from this powerful group of incredible people; their vulnerability, their willingness to love themselves, and more. Here are seven of the most powerful lessons about healing I've learned from them, from my own experience in Soothe, and from what Soothe (which is its own entity, truly, I believe) have all taught me. Whether or not you're interested in signing up for Sothe, I think you'll walk away with some of your own wisdom and lessons for your own healing.Ready to go deeper into your growth, self-discovery, and healing journey?

Today I explain what a mastermind is and why especially highly sensitive women should consider joining one as part of their healing process. We can often be hyper-independent -- we can do it all alone! We don't need help! -- and groups like masterminds, where we come together with other like-minded souls for healing and growth and accountability and love and BEING SEEN as we ARE, not as we think we need to be or should be -- can be a critical and powerful part of our healing process, of understanding that we can show up human, that we get to ask for help, that we get to be seen in our full emotional spectrum and that it is now safe to do so.

Hi Soothers! Today I try to connect the dots amongst two seemingly disparate things: The characters Vecna and Max from the TV show Stranger Things, and how to fight for your self-worth. Spoiler alerts for the show abound, and even if you've never watched Stranger Things, I hope this metaphor I share will land.Join the Soothe September Workshop Series!

Hi Soothers! Today I riff on goal-setting. I'm a Capricorn with a Virgo stellium: I LOVE to set me some goals. But as I've shifted more into my feminine energy I've started to think about what goal-setting can look like from a more relaxed, spacious approach, rather than a lot of DOING in going after the goals. So today I set up a little mini workshop, so bring a pen and paper. We're doing a mini exercise around one of your desired goals, and I'm asking you to tap into it in an entirely different way: through feeling; through the five senses; and through removing limiting beliefs and addressing safety around the goal. Plus I give very practical and actionable tips at the end, like using EFT and affirmations in your goal-setting, too. Settle in and try this approach out on one of your goals! Join the Soothe September Workshop Series! Each Sunday I'm hosting a workshop for just $25.

Hi Soothers! Ready to try a fun experiment: A release control rest of September? In this episode I talk about what it tangibly looks like to release control, how you can begin to do it, and a few tactical ways to begin experimenting releasing control in one or more areas of your life this month. Highly sensitive women can really struggle with needing to be in control/do all the things out of a sense of something that's so critical to us: Feeling safe. But doing all the things and controlling all the people has such negative effects, it leaves us resentful, burnt out, and can harm our relationships. What if it could look a little different, a little more flow-y, a little easier? Let's try it out together this month.  Just think of it as a fun experiment. Let's go release control!

Remember the episode I did earlier this summer about how to get more of what you want in your life? (Episode 170, if ya need to go back and listen.) Well, I think the approach I talked about works for something all of us want more of in our live most of all: time. In this quick hit episode I talk about how to get more time in your life, and it has nothing to do about prioritization, calendaring hacks, or productivity.

Two friends walk to a cliff's edge in the Appalachian Mountains of Western Maryland, but only one of them comes home alive. What really happened on that cliff? Was it a suicide pact gone wrong? What's the deal with the unoccupied house in the woods? What about the huge sum of money transferred days before? And what about that dog in the cemetery? The killing of Alexander Stevens is riddled with rumors and inconsistencies. Host Daryn Carp is joined by Teresa McMinn, the Cumberland Times reporter who closely followed this case as it was unfolding, to dive into all of her unanswered questions.There is cursing and mentions of suicide and violence throughout.

Hey Soothers! Today I'm sharing a goal I am embarking on starting September 1: Going three months without alcohol, gluten or caffeine. I talk about why I'm doing it (reasons include PMDD, anxiety, health, and oh yeah, maybe some magic?) and how I plan to do it, and am sharing all of this here for some extra accountability and support around this! I'm not doing this to try to "cleanse" myself or be super restrictive, but more as a continued exploration of the substances in my life that do not serve me and how I end up being in a spiralic journey of on and off with them and how I can continue to deepen into the belief that I get to feel good and not ingest things that don't support me in my feeling good. I don't by ANY means think anybody else needs to do this kind of adventure — if there's one thing I've learned in life it's that self care, especially health and diet, are singularly unique for each person — but in case you're curious or been thinking about this kind of stuff too, listen in.Ready to go deeper into your growth, self-discovery, and healing journey?
