  • The Town That Sleighed Christmas Traditions

    The Town That Sleighed Christmas Traditions
    Dec 3 2024
    SmallTownUSA is putting the “weird” in holiday cheer with this festive episode! Come unwrap some of the most bizarre and little-known Christmas traditions from around the globe. From beating the Christmas log in Catalonia (yes, it’s a thing) to spiderweb-covered trees in Ukraine, no tradition is too strange for these two sleigh-stoppers to tackle.

    But that’s not all—brace yourself for their irreverent, SmallTown-style rewrite of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas.

    Get ready for a sleigh-full of laughs, a stocking stuffed with sarcasm, and maybe a sprinkle of actual holiday knowledge. Is this the weirdest episode yet? Probably. Will you regret listening? Never. Don't miss your exit.

  • The Town That Raised Queens - Forgotten Woman Who Made History

    The Town That Raised Queens - Forgotten Woman Who Made History
    Nov 12 2024
    Today on SmallTownUSA, we’re talking about the ultimate underdog crew: women in American history who did way more than sit in rocking chairs and drink tea. We’re bringing you the legends who invented “don’t mess with me” long before that was a thing, but who aren't getting the credit they deserved. We're talking hardcore heroines that provided financial freedom for their communites, spent decades making sure civil and women's rights weren't just buzzwords, ran a one-woman safety net...etc. These women didn't just shake up their communtiies -- they shook up the country.Join Jessica and Karmen, as they chat about history’s true trailblazers—the women who laughed in the face of “you can’t” and just went ahead and did it anyway. Prepare for plenty of “wait, WHAT?” moments and maybe a little bit of envy. Don't miss your Exit

  • The town that went from turnips-of-terror to trick-or-treat

    The town that went from turnips-of-terror to trick-or-treat
    Oct 30 2024
    We’re peeling back the eerie origins of Halloween, Scottish-style—where carving pumpkins would’ve gotten you side-eye from a town full of turnip-wielding revelers. Turns out, Scotland’s Halloween celebrations involved veggies that look way scarier than anything you’ll find on a Pinterest board. And let’s not forget Jenny Greenteeth, the local hag of nightmares who perfected drowning people with style.

    Karmen and Jessica are diving into why the Scots first started hacking away at turnips, and exploring some delightfully dark lore from around the globe. Because nothing says Halloween like folklore that might just inspire you to sleep with one eye open.

    For those who think our current holiday’s a little basic, come get your frightful fix the way it was originally served—one terrifying turnip at a time. Don't miss your exit.
