    • Edgewater Park: Detroit’s Lost Playground
      Feb 3 2026
      Feb. 3, 2026 ~ Step back in time to a forgotten playground of Detroit’s West Side. In this episode, we uncover the magic of Edgewater Park, the 23‑acre amusement park that once brought joy, music, and escape to Seven Mile Road. From its roaring‑’20s debut and Depression‑era dime rides to the thunder of the Wild Beast roller coaster and Motown legends lighting up the stage, Edgewater was where Detroit came to play. Though the rides are gone and the gates long closed, the laughter, screams, and soul of the park still linger. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    • Tommy’s: Corktown’s Hidden Past
      Jan 27 2026
      Jan. 27, 2026 ~ What do a scarred wooden bar, a maze of hidden tunnels, and Detroit’s most notorious mobsters have in common? A whole lot more than you’d ever guess. In this episode, we head into Corktown’s legendary Tommy’s Bar & Grill—an unassuming neighborhood joint that has quietly witnessed the city’s most turbulent eras. From whispers of Underground Railroad escape routes weaving beneath its floorboards to Prohibition‑era smuggling schemes run by the infamous Purple Gang (with Al Capone himself dropping by), Tommy’s history reads like a secret map of Detroit’s underbelly. Join us as we descend into the hidden passages, the outlaw lore, and the rebellious spirit that still lingers beneath 3rd Street. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
