Dead Folks' Tales

About Dead Folks' Tales

Dead Folks' Tales podcast is a New Orleans-centric exploration of southern gothic history and hauntings. Authors, historians, artists, paranormal experts, and others weigh in on stories that make their skin crawl. As laid back as the Big Easy, Dead Folks' Tales features chills and laughs as Louisiana-born-and-raised author Nola Nash takes her guests on a storied “tour” of some of her favorite places in the Crescent City and around the South where the dead are as intriguing as the living. And since it’s Nola, you can expect a little lagniappe (‘something extra’) thrown in, too.

    Season 1 Episode 9 - Acadiana Short Stories

    There is something special about short stories. Every word matters. For authors, it can be challenging to develop characters in so few words, but for those who get it right, the effect is remarkable. https://www.jameslambert-author.com/ (https://www.jameslambert-author.com/?fbclid=IwAR2w1sM2ymU0Xqp-GpnQmBNXCv5Xkqa9N9zcunifFtxuvFIh1XW-07zKdCA) After 42 years as a successful attorney in the Acadiana area, Jim Lambert has turned his skills toward creating short stories. In his new, critically acclaimed collection of stories, "Sub Rosa and Other Stories" Lambert's stories explore pain and loss in the South. He has created quirky, often marginalized characters who contend with forces beyond their control or understanding — including racial terror, childhood traumas, family betrayals. Lambert's readers meet characters including a childhood friend of Lee Harvey Oswald, a young lawyer sent to investigate the murder of Black troops in the Jim Crow South — and a mental patient obsessed with the film Harold and Maude. In each story, Lambert reveals the humor and tragedy running through the lives of these unique human beings.

    Season 1 Episode 4 Authors in Residence

    There is something about the city of New Orleans that draws the literary creatives. Host Nola Nash and her guest author Grace Sammon will explore New Orleans' authors in residence and the places they loved to stay and call home. https://www.gracesammon.net/ (https://www.gracesammon.net/?fbclid=IwAR38NbCaMVv12lgUFRjXAsosiT6exUkjl0MKn_hI4UqSGhcItOrK28Nbt74) Grace Sammon is an entrepreneur, educator, speaker, and author. She has started and managed two for-profit and two not-for-profit companies, and she has travelled to 35 states and 8 foreign countries. Recognized in Who’s Who in Education and Who’s Who in Literature, Grace is utilizing skills built up over decades as she re-invents herself with her award-winning fourth book and debut novel - The Eves - and, with a return to one of her early loves, radio. The Eves is an award-winning, intergenerational story about lives lived well and lives in transition. It is a novel that challenges each of us to ask who we want to be in the world, regardless of our age. Grace brings that quest for a good story, and a drive to keep contributing, to her new radio show, The Storytellers. Each episode captures the stories of authors and others who leave their mark on the world through the art of story. Grace is a member of the Women’s Fiction Writers’ Association (WFWA), is an administrator on “Bookish Road Trip” and a contributing moderator of “The Write Review.” Grace grew up on Long Island, New York and spent most of her life in the Washington, DC area. She currently lives on Florida’s west coast with her husband and a small herd of imaginary llamas.

    Season 1 Episode 1 - Meeting Brooklyn's Voodoo Queen in New Orleans

    What happens when you meet Brooklyn's voodoo queen in New Orleans? Author Mandy Haynes will answer that question as we explore New Orleans voodoo traditions. *Correction to the information in the show: according to online sources, Mama Lola is still alive and kickin'! We wish her many more years of health and happiness! Like Mark Twain, Mama Lola can say "The rumors of my death have been largely exaggerated." https://threedogswritepress.com/ (https://threedogswritepress.com/?fbclid=IwAR3XPbihE4kWWAe9Oemtn6zCC-4acX4FoB34j6vjgaM-rZZo4vWHwYqlqH8) Mandy Haynes has spent hours on barstools, at backstage venues, and riding in vans listening to tales from some of the best songwriters and storytellers in Nashville, Tennessee. She now lives in Fernandina Beach, Florida with her three dogs, a turtle, and a grateful liver. Walking the Wrong Way Home was a finalist for the 2017 Tartt Fiction Award and chosen as a bonus book for The 2019 Pulpwood Queen Book Club Reading List. Sharp as a Serpent's Tooth Eva and Other Stories was chosen as a bonus book for The 2020 Pulpwood Queen Book Club Reading List. Mandy worked for twenty-six years for Vanderbilt University Medical Center before deciding to run away to Amelia Island. She started as a clerk, working in the mailroom and making thousand of copies of patients medical records - but worked her way up to finish the last sixteen years as a pediatric cardiac sonographer at Monroe Carroll Jr. Children's Hospital. Some of her favorite memories include her time as a receptionist/administrative assistant in Addiction Psychiatry, break-room antics with her fellow refund clerks, and of course all of the families and children she met in cardiology. Fans of Fannie Flagg, Flannery O'Conner, Wiley Cash, Rick Bragg, Harper Lee, and Harry Crews might enjoy her writing style. These stories are for readers who like to chase their stories with a shot of whiskey while burrowed under a hand stitched quilt.
