Description

Well now, welcome, neighbor, to Winds on W Mountain, where tales as old as these hills—and twice as twisted—whisper their way to you, when the mood strikes and the wind's right. We ain't much for schedules; episodes waft in like smoke from a Shatagee Woods Adirondack Mountain campfire, carrying yarns spun by old-timers, tall tales shared by summer folk clutchin' their city ways, and the kind of uncanny musin's that make web-gawkers wonder if we’re history or hysteria. So, pull up a log, pour some milled cider, and let’s see if these winds are breathin' truth or just ghostin’ us all.

🎙️🐍💀 Winds of W Mountain: "Echoes in the Narrows" 💀🐍🎙️ Steamboat Dispatch Press — East Bellmont, NY — Circulation by Omen & OutboardCAUTION TO LISTENERS:This broadcast contains true accounts of disappearances, drowned financiers, and folkloric reptiles with a taste for toes. It is not recommended for tenderfoot dreamers, nor those with kin still workin’ the shafts at Lyon Mountain. Proceed as you would through the Narrows—silent, slow, and never alone.📻 “He took a skiff to photograph the lilies. What came back was a shoe and a smear of silver on the marsh.”Set your dials, folks.The summer of 1922 brought more than fireflies to Chateaugay Lake—it brought L. Evan Larchmont, a bond man from Newark, who went out through the Narrows with a camera and a bottle of rye, and never came back. What did return was a skiff drifting in fog, lantern snuffed, and a trail that led private operative Harlan G. Warr straight into the shadowed remains of Popeville."Echoes in the Narrows" chronicles the only surviving case notes of that investigation—where kiln ghosts, liquor tunnels, and bootleg barge-folk collide. Warr’s journey took him past warped kilns and dead furnaces into a world where iron met moonshine, and where the Chateaugay Lake Steamboat Pirate Syndicate—yes, that’s what they called themselves—ran whisky through alder tunnels and left nothing behind but busted crates and bad luck.But that ain’t the worst of it.🐾 Enter the Little Nippers—legendary fire-born spawn of the Gitaskog, seen flickerin’ by collier fires and blamed for half the missing toes from Bellmont to Standish. More than myth, less than mammal, they were said to rise when the sparks flew thick. Croatians called ‘em dragons. Company doctors called it “rotary shearing with serpentine scoring.” We call it... one more thing not to wade into barefoot.🎶 “Coke is cold, sparks no more—Nippers starve at iron’s door…”From collapsing plank roads to sunken barges reeking of rye, this tale winds through the industrial carcass of the North Country—where even the lullabies are written in blood and lime dust.🔍 Episode Highlights• The mysterious vanishing of Evan Larchmont• Popeville’s ruin repurposed for bootleg ferry runs• Floating warehouses disguised as ore barges• Gitaskog folklore and the Little Nippers’ cradle-song• A courtroom drama involving a shoe, a steamboat heir, and broken glass plates• Wet footprints with no owner.

🪓 'Uncle' Dick Shutts Presents:🎙️ Tunnel Engineering for the End Times: The Great Sucker Highway”(“If it ain’t natural, it’s probably a passage.”)Friends, gather close an’ mind yer ears. We’ve got a fresh-cut wax-cylinder wonder—scraped clean by jug-band intervention, by gar—and it’ll set the hair on your neck to standin’ like frost on a fence rail. This first installment—“The Great Sucker Highway and the Bradley Pond Boog”—comes kettle-hot, catfish steam and all, with old Dick Shutts tappin’ his lantern and swearin’ he’s mapped the underfoot sluiceways that stitch Champlain to Upper Chateaugay Lake like a grandma’s quilt. 🕯️🐟You’ll hear Dick talk plain on migratin’ suckers, a subcurrent thumpin’ under Lyon Mountain, and a keyhole at Bradley Pond that ain’t so pondish after all. There’s a reenactment, too—Geo. Cook & Jim Smith hookin’ fish what look bit from below—plus a tidy historical rummage through tunnels that run faster than gossip at Merrill’s Landing. And if that ain’t enough, Abner Percy chews a length of copper wire and reports the earth hummin’ like a wasp’s nest inside a church cello. 🎧😶‍🌫️Why you oughta listen (and sooner than later) ⛏️Field signs: suckers swarmin’ at East Inlet—not breedin’, migratin’.Bradley Pond: the “keyhole” flow toward the Chazy—quiet water, quick purpose.Subcurrent: bedrock talk from Upper to Lower, maybe clear to Champlain—stitched tight.Caves & cracks: Nat Collins’ Calypso Grotto—stone that sings after dark.Beast or hymn?: two fish come up chewed, and the dock timbers answer back.Old-Timer’s AdvisoryThis broadcast ain’t for jittery folks, night swimmers, nor them as hears breathin’ cellars on Devil’s Channel and calls it “just the wind.” Best taken with headphones, lamp trimmed low, and your boots kept dry. If you’re set on swimmin’ past Burnt Camp after sundown, don’t say Dick didn’t warn ye.How to fetch it 🎚️Spin it on the Steamboat Dispatch Network—whatever contraption you favor, from wind-ups to them new wire-tangle devices.

🔊 “Jazz Throttle Toward Rocky Brook (Part Two): The Wild Goose Point Hootenanny Trap” 🎙️❄️Neighbors—draw up close to the stove and mind your bootlaces, for the night wind is hunting. From the pressmen at Steamboat Dispatch (East Bellmont) comes a ripping lake-run of an episode wherein a naptha launch, coughing like a tin saint, shoulders past Wild Goose Point toward Rocky Brook—right into a ring of lanterns, a toll-by-dancing, and the kind of music that gets inside your ribs and barges the doors. There’s ice stacked like bad firewood, fog that bargains like a pawnbroker, a fiddle that saws the truth in half, Captain Sable grinning ear to ear, and—if you look down at the right awful moment—the Gitaskog smiling up through the pane with copper-penny eyes. 🪵🧭🐍We won’t lie: the lake’s in charge tonight. The Narrows pinch mean, the Sandbar mutters, W Mountain hunches like an ox with old news, and the Steamboat Pirate Syndicate beats time on the ice till your heartbeat volunteers. It’s contraband in the crates, rumor riding shotgun, and a schedule the weather don’t respect. Boots stomp, bottles trade hands, and a man counts his luck twice—once for the Wendigo, once for the return trip. If you know Lakeville, Drew Landing, Indian Point House, or the smoke-memory of Standish kilns and Lyon Mountain ore, you’ll hear home in the clatter—and something else behind it that ain’t quite friendly. ⚙️🕯️Why you ought to listen (and not after dark, unless you must):Because this one hums like a live wire in sleet—engine-chatter, ice-song, and a hootenanny snare laid dead center on the channel. You’ll feel the hull shiver, you’ll smell the wet wool, and you’ll swear the lake voted—and won.Listener Advisory (take heed):Sharp sounds, sudden frights, winter-lake peril, smuggling mischief, folkloric creatures (with teeth), and a touch of bottle-trade. Not for youngsters; veterans and tender-hearted listeners, go steady and keep a lamp lit. ⚠️Marching orders (plain):Tune in, tighten your scarf, and don’t lean over the gunwale. If the compass jitters, let it. If the ice hums, dance polite. Then follow, subscribe, rate, and tell the clerk at Alfie King’s you heard the lake laugh first. 😉Short blurb for the wire (SEO-ready):Adirondack horror folklore podcast from Steamboat Dispatch: a naptha launch runs the Chateaugay ice at Wild Goose Point into a Syndicate hootenanny trap—Gitaskog below, Wendigo above, Rocky Brook ahead.

🎧 There’s Something Living in the Woods That Shouldn’t Be...🍂 It Started With a Boy Who Walked Too Far...Some say curiosity killed the cat. 'Round here, we reckon it’s just as likely to drag the boy down to Rocky Brook, neck-deep in something best left undisturbed. Calvin wasn’t looking for trouble, no sir—but the woods... the woods were looking for him. A flash of motion, a smell like damp mushrooms and wet fur, and a glimpse of something that don’t fit in God’s taxonomy books.👉 But what he saw… well, friend, you’ll have to press play to find out. Best do it before sundown.🔥 When Gossip Turns Grim — The Congregation at Abner’s Store...There’s places you go for answers—and places you go for speculation wrapped in pipe smoke and bad coffee. Abner’s Store leans heavily toward the latter. By the time Calvin showed up breathless, that place was packed tighter than a sardine tin with every bewhiskered philosopher and backwoods theologian within ten miles. You’ve never heard a more chaotic blend of doom, mockery, and utter dead seriousness.💥 Want to know what passes for “truth” in Shatagee? You’d best listen in. It’s cheaper than therapy, and twice as disturbing.🌲 Seen. Described. Denied. Repeated.There are those who swear it’s real. There are those who swear at those who swear it’s real. But facts don’t seem inclined to intervene. A shambling mass of moss, fur, rot, and intent—whether you call it a cryptid, a forest spirit, or just “one more reason not to own property near Rocky Brook”—it’s out there. And it’s watching. 👀🎙️ Spoiler: You won’t like how close it gets. But you will like this episode. Press play, sinner.🫖 Oh, It Has Manners — Even Monsters Take Tea...Yes, believe it or not, our local abomination isn’t always skulking about the woods. Sometimes it gussies up in borrowed hats and gaudy earrings and drifts, unbothered, into polite society. Seen—barely—at a perfectly respectable tea party at the Banner House. A social debut, one might say. ☕👒⚓ If you’re thinking, “That can’t possibly be true,” well, welcome to the Shatagee Woods, friend.

🌲🎧 Winds of W Mountain Podcast: Episode 31 - Mischief at the Back Side of the Lake: A Tale of the Chateaugay Whistling Wampoodle 🎧🌲Hold on to your paddle, folks—this isn’t your typical lakeside tale! Imagine the calm, pine-scented air of Upper Chateaugay Lake disrupted by an otherworldly, mischievous whistle that has locals clutching their fishing rods and botanists clutching their sanity. Welcome to The Whistling Wampoodle—the cryptid with the pranks of a steamboat pirate and the whistles of a haunted teakettle.In this mind-bending episode, we dive into the wild, woolly legend of a creature so absurdly tricky, even the steamboat pirates had to tip their hats. A high-pitched whistle (not your average kettle scream) rings through the moonlit night, setting the stage for a delightful blend of mystery, mayhem, and so much confusion you'll be questioning your own reality by the end.💡 Listener Advisory: Side effects may include sudden fits of laughter, uncontrollable curiosity, and the overwhelming urge to prank your neighbors with a tin whistle at 2 a.m. This episode is not suitable for those who prefer their cryptids serious, their boats tied down, and their cows kept firmly out of the lake.We follow the baffling adventures of Mrs. Eleanor Tufford, Dr. Leopold Cray (that poor botanist), a trio of overly curious nieces, and a boatload of Steamboat Pirates who dared to investigate the creature’s origins. Was the Wampoodle a devious hybrid of a loon and a raccoon? Or just a trickster spirit pulling a little Abenaki magic on the newcomers?Don’t miss this one, or the lake might just decide to whistle you away into its mysterious depths. Who knew a cryptid could bring such joy? (Spoiler: It’s the Wampoodle, of course.)🦴 Listen now or risk hearing that sinister whistle in your own backyard.

As Told by Squire Miles of Chateaugay LakeBrought to you by the Winds of W Mountain Podcast, in proud collaboration with the semi-functioning woodstove and highly credible ghost investigators over at Steamboat Dispatch, East Bellmont Division.🪵💨 Listener Advisory:This episode contains elderly wisdom, interdimensional barking, unauthorized Wendigo activity, and moderate existential dread. Not recommended for small children, large skeptics, or anyone currently alone in a cabin during a windstorm.📻 SYNOPSIS:Pull your wool socks up, pour a ladle of moonshine cider, and let Old Squire Miles take you on a midnight moondance through the Shatagee Woods, where time folds like a moth-eaten quilt and the trees whisper things they shouldn't. You’ll hear the legend of the Barking Moondog, the spectral mutt that howls not at—but to—the moon, summoning echoes of the ancient Wendigo like a furry eldritch town crier with poor social skills.This tale is not for the faint of heart, the overly rational, or folks who don’t believe dogs can exist simultaneously in three dimensions and one dark memory.💬 Critics (and local tavern philosophers) are howling:“Better than a séance and twice as hairy.”— Ghost Jim, Saranac Lake Candle Shop“My snowshoes froze mid-step.”— Mildred P., Accidental Time Traveler“Finally, a podcast that speaks to the posthuman canine psyche.”— Journal of ArchaeoCryptid Studies (self-published)📡 Stream it now on all platforms where haunted frequencies roam:Spotify | Apple Podcasts | Ham Radio after 11pm | Shatagee Tree Stumps (Channel 3)🔮 TAG IT LIKE IT’S 1811 🔮#MoondogMadness #WendigoWhispers #SteamboatDispatch #WindsOfWMountain #ShatageeShivers #HauntedHowls #ChateaugayChronicles #GhostDogLore #CabinCreepshow #EldritchAnimalsAnonymous #FolkTalesAndFrostbite #NorthernFrights🕯️ So remember, listeners...When the fire flickers low and the wind sounds like it’s speaking your name backwards—don’t follow the barking. That ain’t no dog. That’s the beginning of something much worse.Stay warm. Stay weird. Stay outta the woods. 🌲🐾🌕“The Winds of W Mountain: Where the Past Isn’t Dead. It’s Just Lost in the Fog.”

🚨 NEW BONUS EPISODE DROP: “The Etheric Vapor: An Invitation to the Steamboat Dispatch” 🚨—Brought to you by the fine and questionably-sober minds behind Winds of W Mountain and your favorite haunted fishing shack with a microphone, Steamboat Dispatch 🎙️🛳️👻 Listener Advisory 👻This podcast contains high concentrations of speculative vapor, unlicensed metaphysics, and historically questionable steamboat lore. Side effects may include: sudden belief in local ghosts, mild possession by the spirit of Geraldine Farrar, and an uncontrollable desire to build a pirate tree stand on Lyon Mountain using only a tarp and raw ambition. Do not operate heavy Victorian machinery while listening.🧭 What’s Inside This Week’s Etheric Vapor?Picture it: a foggy dawn on Chateaugay Lake. A steamboat whistle echoes with notes suspiciously resembling a lost Charles Ives score. You lean forward. The compass spins. A voice—equal parts stage driver, cosmic archivist, and backwoods philosopher—whispers: "Welcome to the Dispatch."In this episode, Scrooge Hoy and the rest of the imaginary newsroom staff at Steamboat Dispatch throw open the mahogany double doors of the Cosmic Archives to welcome listeners—skeptical, scholarly, and supernatural alike—into the shimmering uncertainty of our auditory steamboat séance.No timelines. No hard facts. Just vibes. (And perhaps an eldritch accordion solo or two.)🎩 Why You Should Listen 🎩Because your Spotify algorithm never once recommended “Avant-Garde Pirate Improvisation” and frankly that’s a crime.Because you deserve to hear the truth about the Wendigo’s hootenanny.Because somewhere in the mist, you might just hear your own story echoed back… but weirder.🔥 Pull Quote from a Totally Real Listener:"I listened once and now my porch light blinks in Morse code. It’s either the ghost of Seth Thomas or I need an electrician. Five stars."📻 So grab your smoked Chateaugay salmon trout, hitch up the mule of your imagination, and subscribe now to The Winds of W Mountain on all respectable podcast thingamajigs (and some disreputable ones too).🚢 It’s time to ride the Steamboat Dispatch—where folklore fogs the glasses, and history ain’t so much told as conjured.💬 New episodes appear whenever the mist ripens.🎙️ Subscribe, or risk being mildly judged by the ghost of Mose Sangamore.🔮 Hashtags of Semi-Cosmic Importance:#SteamboatDispatch #WindsOfWMountain #EthericVapor #AdirondackMystery #CosmicHoller #ChateaugayChronicles #SteampunkWithMoss #WendigoWhispers #PodcastOddity #HauntedHistory #AvantGardeBackwoods #SpeculativeSteamboat #FogFolkLore #SteamboatGothic #OccultOutdoorAudio
