This is a question that has been googled several times this week. The answer is they are still here and live on most Saturday Nights. Baseball has taken a few Saturdays. There are a couple of reasons they are not up to date here: 1) Due to Thunder Storms in my area I did miss 1 show and the last show due to a change in code of the player at WBSM kept kicking me off air and stopping the recording and finally I was out of town and the power went off which did not allow the recording.
The shows have been recorded by the guys on a new backup system of theirs so keep watch here and itunes for the release of the missed episodes. I have made changes on my end as well for the recordings here. Hopefully everything will be back to normal starting this week.

John Ledyard Chapter 5
Craig Anderson, Jared Sparks, John Ledyard, OHP Radio, Our History Project, ourhistoryproject.comChapter 5 - The Life and Travels of John Ledyard by Jared Sparks
This week we pick up John’s story at Hawaii, just before Captain Cooks death and it ends with his return to England. There is a huge contrast to their first arrival in Hawaii and their second. I will reserve personal comments on this book until the end so not to shape any opinions. We may even do a live show and online chat for anyone who would like to participate when it is completed.
Note: There were several instances my curiosity peaked in this chapter on the known world and references to the names described. It is my intent to pull some screen shots as reference or to provide links. The David Rumsey Collection which is usual my primary source was down as I was compiling this so I went to my backup the University of Alabama (http://alabamamaps.ua.edu/historicalmaps/index.html) and referenced the map A New Map of the World with the Latest Discoveries, Boston: Thomas & Andrews, 1806; Engraved for Morse's Abridgement of Geography and London: Fisher, Son & Co., 1825.

SSC 05-22-10
This is the show from 05-22-10. I have missed a few weekends due to heavy and violent thunderstorms. I believe I am caught up with the show but not sure. If someone can let me know if there was a show last week I would appreciate it. Due to ball games there has been some episodes that were not done. Drop the guys a note and tell them thanks, they were at the station most nights even when the show did not happen, ready to go on. That has got to be frustrating to no end.

Spooky Southcoast Radio 05-01-10
Matt Costa, Matt Moniz, Paranormal Podcast, Paranormal Radio, Spooky Southcoast, Tim WeisbergSHOW IS UP!
My humble apologies to all the SSC fans who have been looking for the show. Lat month I was MIA most of the time. Home only long enough to put my show together and while out and about I am not sure how many shows I caught. This one will be up in the AM on 5-2-10. The crew has not updated their archive as of yet and I know 1 weekend no show was on. I have this past weeks for sure and it is cut, the only drawback is 2 times Moniz was cut off due to auto playing net-feed commercials. We'll have to wait for the real show posting to get his thought, but until then - enjoy.

OHP Radio presents John Ledyard - History Podcast
Audio Production, Biography, Craig Anderson, History Podcast, Jared Sparks, John LedyardOHP Radio presents John Ledyard - an Audio Book Presentation
He was 10 feet tall, could run faster, walk further, swim deeper, climb higher than any man alive now or has ever been. He sailed the seven seas, explored unknown regions, walked across most of the world and met the famous and native alike. A pre-curser and idol to Lewis and Clark, a native of Connecticut and probably the most fearless explorer of all time - John Ledyard.
In the next couple of weeks we will explore John Ledyard through an 1828 book by Jared Sparks. The book is biographical sketch on John Ledyard drawing from his journals and letters. This is a one and only production of its kind, brought to you by Our History Project Productions
This episode:
The Preface and Chapter One: We learn about John beginnings, his home and family. We also look in to the spirit of knowledge, comedy, and bizarre acts that made this man who he was and where he started. This is a character I have wanted to something on and when I found a copy of the book I could not resist. I am no professional reader by any means, but I wanted to try something new here at OHP a chance for you to learn along with me. What you hear, is as far as I go in any given week. Leaving the week to google the people that surrounds John and to explore his life as I go.
