In the first weeks of March 1972 the city of Loveland, Ohio, a sleepy suburb of Cincinnati, was the scene of one of the most bizarre and unusual cases in all of cryptozoology. 2 different police officers, 2 weeks apart, would both separately encounter what some would describe as a 3-foot-tall, bipedal, frog faced entity.  What was perhaps more outrageous was that this wasn't the first time Loveland, Ohio had been visited by such creatures!

Join hosts Laura Kram and Creepy Acres' very own resident Bigfoot, Sam Squatch,  as they speak with author and researcher James A. Willis (WEIRD WILLIS) about the Loveland Frogman! So sit back and prepare for THIS WEEK IN CREEPY HISTORY!


James A. Willis is the author of numerous books on Ohio legends and lore including "Weird Ohio", "Ohio's Historic Haunts", "Central Ohio Legends & Lore", "Southern Ohio Legends & Lore", and many more!

You can find James A. Willis on  his Facebook page, or at his websites "My Strange and Spooky World" and  "Ghosts of Ohio"!

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
