57-Woody Hockaday Sep 08, 2023

Show notes

We do realize that we refer to us being in April several times in this episode because, yes, we recorded it back then and we finally got around to editing it. Our editing team took a long sabbatical but they are back and so are we!
Did you know that you can credit a lot of our national highway system to a man from Wichita? Well you are about to learn!
Woody Hockaday was THE guy who really pushed to develop our travel capabilities across this country and can be credited for so many things we take for granted when driving around the country. From maps to road signs, we would not be where we are at if it wasn't for this Wichita man. Check out the episode to find out more and probably share several laughs along the way!

56-Andover Tornado Apr 26, 2023

Show notes

1991 brought a devastating tornado to the greater Wichita area. Tornados are no strangers to the midwest and something we deal with often. The history behind this tornado (and others that were similar in size) reminds us all to keep safe when those sirens sound. And did you know those sirens started in Wichita?

55-Father Emil Kapaun Mar 17, 2023

Show notes

We had the ultimate privilege of sitting down with Scott Carter, the resident expert on all things Father Emil Kapaun, to not only figure out how to pronounce his name (spoilers we didn't) but also to hear the story of the life of this incredible (almost) Wichitan both before and after his death. Scott makes the remark that Father Kapaun might be the most famous person buried in Wichita and having heard his story, you will probably agree. The man was not only a great Wichitan but an even better human who put his life on the lines constantly to serve others.
