        FRESH CLEAN TEES SHIRT CLUB
         
        Mike here from the Strange Heartland Podcast! I recently became an ambassador for a great company who specializes in great T-shirts! I am of course speaking of Fresh Clean Tees! Fresh Clean Tees opened its virtual doors in November of 2015. Led by the husband and wife team, Matthew and Melissa Parvis. The tandem knew the market for men’s basics was flawed to say the least. Men’s tees and basics typically fell within one of two buckets: You’ve got the shirts that fit well and look good, but retail for over $30 bucks for a single tee shirt, or you've got the more affordable tees which are poorly constructed, lack comfort, shrink after a few washes and have no consistency. Experience the difference and check out Fresh Clean Tees today!Click Here to check it out and support the podcast!

      • 9: Spooky Ohio Part 2- Franklin Castle/Ohio Grassman
        Franklin Castle and The Ohio Grassman 

        This Queen Anne Style mansion has four stories and more than twenty rooms with 80 windows and looks like it belongs in some medieval European country but no, Franklin Castle lies in Cleveland Ohio. 

        Built in 1881-1883 this home has seen many tragic deaths and may have been a spy headquarters for the Germans during war time. 

        Later
        The Ohio Grassman is a legend that has persisted for nearly 150 years in Ohio. The first sightings date back to 1869. They described the being, which would later become know as the Ohio Grassman, as a large, hairy, bipedal creature that stood at a staggering nine feet tall.
