It’s All About Bob: A Ghostly Character and Curtain Critic

It’s All About Bob: A Ghostly Character and Curtain Critic

This week on The Activity Continues, we dive deep into the ghostly tales of the Weems-Botts Museum in Virginia, where the past isn’t the only thing that won’t stay buried. Our guest of honor? A ghost named Uncle Bob, who initially charms us with his welcoming persona but soon reveals himself as a curtain-hating troublemaker. Can a ghost be narcissistic? Is Uncle Bob?

A Thesaurusus, Anyone?

Both Steve and Amy had us giggling when they lamented over Steve’s repetitive questions and Megan’s cleverly coined term, “thesaurusus.” It seems the ghostly encounters this episode called for some new vocabulary—perhaps a thesaurusus isn't such a bad idea!

 

 

Curtains and Cooking: A Recipe for Haunting

Speaking of the quirky and the culinary, we couldn’t leave out our conversation on potassium-packed foods and the endless joys of chicken versatility. While discussing hauntings and how to tackle them, we found ourselves pondering the simple joys of a good baked potato over bananas to boost potassium levels. Who knew ghosts could have you craving comfort food?

 

Old Towels, New Beginnings?

Amy Allan’s unique advice to cleanse the area with salt water and old towels left us smirking. Maybe it’s her way of saying, “Spring clean those spirits out of your life!” Here's a hot tip: old curtains could use a wash too—Bob apparently can't stand them!

But Srsly

We also touched on some serious themes from this touching episode. The history at the museum is both fascinating and sobering: tragic tales from the Civil and Revolutionary Wars are sure to leave a mark not just in history but in the resident ghosts as well.

 

Tune In Next Time!

Join us next time for a journey with aliens—yes, you read that right! Amy’s pick promises to take us beyond our usual haunt with an episode aptly titled “From Beyond.” Prepare for the unknown; it promises to be out of this world!

 

Thanks for hanging out with us this week! Until next time, may your potatoes be perfectly baked, and your spirits delightfully friendly.

140: A Thesaurusus for Steve

Do you make up words and then stick to them when challenged? We sure do! This week we are discussing The Dead Files “A Widow’s Revenge” (Season 8 Episode 4) which aired May 27, 2017. This week we relearn what it feels like to really like one of the people in the episode, then find out they might not be so great. This time, it's not the clients (we really liked them) but one of the ghosts! Uncle Bob seemed so cool until we found out he's a little pervy. And he hates those curtains. ...
