Listen "Guardian Angels, Ghosts, And A Cigar"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textA rebellious aunt lights a cigar, tunes a fiddle, and refuses the script her town wrote for her. Years later, she keeps one last promise: she wakes a boy in the night, tells him what’s coming, and says she’ll be his guardian angel—hours before the family learns she died in a crash. That single moment becomes the hinge of a life steeped in magic, memory, and the mysteries that refuse to stay quiet.We open with the evolution from Your Ghost Story Bus to Spirit Tales and Magic, retiring the legend of “Blood Money” but keeping its spirit on the road. Then we step into the life of Agnes Arbitus Wagner, a woman who launched the valley’s first female taxi service, backed country stars at the Jamboree, and never blinked at a bully. Her story isn’t folklore wallpaper; it’s the backbone of why belief endures. When she appears after death with precise details—who died at impact, who lingered, who would pass by morning—the kitchen fills with shock, pushback, and the uneasy dance between faith and fear. That tension shapes everything: the host’s “ethereal voice,” the survival mode of keeping quiet, and the eventual decision to study the mind, the paranormal, and stage magic for six decades.We explore how family narratives police the edges of experience, and how those edges push back. A late-life confession from Pap—seeing “the girls,” Agnes and her sister—becomes a pivot from denial to awe. Along the way, we invite your testimony and community: half of people say they believe in ghosts, a third report encounters, and the rest hold their breath in the dark. Share your story and help us build an honest archive of encounters that don’t fit tidy boxes but won’t leave us alone either.If this journey moved you, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who still wonders what happens after the room goes quiet. Then tell us your story—your voice might be the proof someone else is waiting to hear.Support the show
