  • Michigan Castles

    Are there really castles in Michigan?...

    Well. Sorta. There are buildings that are called castles in Michigan... there's even a rock called Castle Rock... but what exactly makes a building a castle?

    We honestly still don't know for sure.

    Give the show a listen and tell us what YOU think, because we're still confused.
