If you live in Maine, you've likely heard of the Bucksport Witch.

The Salty Crew dives deep into witchcraft in the United States and the lore behind the the cursed tomb of Jonathan Buck and the witch he burned at the stake in Bucksport, ME.

According to a recent survey, the Maine accent was voted 4th sexiest in the US, we try to explain why.

The Mainer accent is one of the sexiest in the country, according to a new survey.

Online travel guide curator and publisher Big 7 Travel released its "USA's Sexiest Accents for 2019" results Tuesday, and the Mainer accent ranks No. 4.

The publication says results were determined via a survey of its audience, consisting of a reported 1.5 million, with votes from across the world.

"If you're a real 'Mainah,"' its caption reads, "you'll drop your 'r's, go to 'yoger' class instead of yoga and add in wicked to make every adjective extra powerful."

Before we get too in depth with any lobster fishing topics, we wanted to cover some of the basics.

We asked and you all delivered with some great questions! We cover everything from how fishermen park their boats in one direction to blue lobsters!

Is Swan's Island Haunted?

Join us as we read listener stories, and our own encounter with the supernatural both on Swan's Island and off.

*DISCLAIMER*

This is the second recording of this episode. The first go round, we discovered in the playback that there was classical music playing in the background that we did not put there. Needless to say it ruined the audio. 

During the second recording, everything was great until the wind kicked up and started dropping ice on the roof of the building we record in.

I'm pretty sure the ghosts knew what was up.

Listen if you dare....

The "Cloud House," Atlantic, Swan's Island. This was once the home of Walter and Etta Stockbridge Joyce. It is supposedly haunted by their daughter Bernice (1894-1959), who received a brain injury as an infant when Etta fell downstairs while carrying her. The name Cloud House comes from a cloud design painted on the shutters. Courtesy of the Gwen May Collection, Swan's Island Historical Society.

Island living. 

It sounds romantic and charming, doesn't it? Well we are here to break down the nitty gritty of living on Swan's Island, a small outer island off the coast of Maine.

Do we have electricity and paved roads? Are we all related? Does everyone get along? What do we do for work? What's the deal with the ferry boat?

If you want to know the answers, you've got to listen!

This week Carroll and crew discuss the most common Maine stereotypes.

If you have ever wanted to know if we eat lobster every day, or if we only wear flannel and LL Bean boots you shouldn't miss this one. If you have never had those thoughts or are ambivalent about Mainahs, you should listen anyway...you will get a good laugh as we try to save Allens Coffee Brandy, and Jenn tries Moxie for the first time on air.

In this episode we tackle the tough topic of censorship, particularly as it applies to social media.

How much is too much? Are we becoming overly sensitive?

In this episode we reference the poems of Thomas Morton, we recommend visiting this link to hear the poem we read on the episode set to music: Thomas Morton Maypole

We also reference a photo from the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special:
