On this week’s episode of the *222 Paranormal Podcast*, we welcome a very special guest: **Pat O’Keefe**, storyteller, folklorist, and documentarian of the strange, magical, and mysterious world of the Appalachian region. Known for her deep research and personal experiences, Pat shines a light on a culture rich with history, tradition, and supernatural lore that has been passed down for generations.
The Appalachian Mountains are more than just rolling hills and winding roads—they are alive with stories. Pat O’Keefe has spent years preserving these tales, especially those of the **granny witches**—wise women of the mountains who carried with them a blend of herbal knowledge, folk magic, and spiritual practices that bridged the gap between the physical and unseen worlds. In this episode, she shares her passion for uncovering these stories and explains why the traditions of Appalachian magic are so important to preserve in our fast-moving modern world.
We dive into the heart of Pat’s work and talk about:
* **The legacy of Appalachian granny witches** – who they were, what they believed, and how they healed both body and soul.
* **The intersection of folklore and the paranormal** – from ghostly apparitions in mountain hollers to unexplained lights in the woods.
* **Pat’s documentary work** – capturing the voices of locals who grew up hearing stories of spells, cures, omens, and encounters that defy logic.
* **The role of faith, superstition, and nature** in shaping Appalachian spiritual practices.
* How these traditions influence paranormal investigators and researchers today.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
