Washington County: Of Pioneers and Putnams

  • Summary

  • Someone had the crazy idea of doing a whole episode for each of Ohio’s 88 counties. And we’re just crazy enough to try! We begin with Washington County, the first established. It’s now home to all the historical sites you could want in a county and all the creepy dolls you could want in a lifetime. In this episode, we also accidentally come full circle on just about every topic and say the name, Putnam a lot. Say it with us: Putnam. Fun right?

They do not reflect the opinions of the Ohio Bubble Podcast.It took us longer to edit this episode than most (it’s a whole thing) so some facts may not be as up to date as usual.US News and World Report has since downgraded Marietta College to 7th best value in the Midwest.Sadie Johnson has since graduated from Marietta.When it comes to ghost tours, there’s a big difference between a ghost walk and a ghost hunt. We emphatically don’t recommend the latter.We aren’t experts on everything. If you think we’re incorrect about something, let us know at https://www.instagram.com/the_ohio_bubble_podcast/
