As Odd Fellows, we're not surprised by any old thing we find in a lodge hall. For non-members, though, it can be quite a shock when relics of a former lodge are left behind and discovered while exploring a new building. Such incidents usually end up getting some kind of media coverage and one of those stories inspired hosts Sara Buesing and Emily Coleman to do an episode of their podcast Afternoonified about those discoveries. They were kind enough to join us for this episode of The Three Links Odd Cast so we could answer some questions and dispel some rumors about what may be lurking in the closet of your lodge hall (or under the stairs, or the podium, or the pool table...) Both Emily and Sara came away with a greater knowledge of Odd Fellowship and the purpose of all those hidden skeletons. The Shoutout goes to Prestonsburg Lodge #293 of Kentucky for their excellent work recruiting new members. In the Odd Podge, Ainslie finally spills the beans on his next TV appearance (spoiler alert: it's with a big celebrity), Toby shares his Grand Lodge committee assignment, Emily talks about fossilized Neanderthal poop and Sara sets a new personal record for fastest time off an airplane to view a corpse.
