This episode has it ALL! Gangsters, crab cakes, serial killers, and Al Capone - oh my!
Meet Captain Judy Helmey - once named the youngest captain on the East Coast. She's a Savannah legend, to the say the least - and we got to sit down with her and talk about her wildly colorful upbringing - and her equally as colorful father Sherman Helmey (best known as Moose) who YES ... worked for Al Capone.
Miss Judy has already written one book, "My Father, The Sea and Me" - and don't worry - we hear another book is on the way.
When you go fishing with Miss Judy - you'll likely have a chance to book the Good, the Bad and Ugly Tour. She says, "It's not a fishing trip ... it's EVERYTHING!"

We're "behind the gates" and on-location at St. Vincent's Academy at the iconic corner of Abercorn and Liberty Streets in historic Savannah, Georgia.
St. Vincent's was founded on June 23, 1845, when Father Jeremiah Francis O'Neill brought six Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy from Charleston, South Carolina. We're seated in the parlor amidst priceless artifacts, works of art, and whispers from the past - and grateful to be joined by Sister Paula Cockerham, Loretto Lomanack - the school's Director of Alumni & Archivist, and Diane Parker - the chair of the annual Nun Run.
Thanks to the eloquent storytelling of these fine women, we are transported back to a time when the son and daughter of Jefferson Davis - as well as the renowned writer Mary Flannery O'Connor - were students at St. Vincent's.

LOVE & MOXiE's tagline says it ALL - "Life is short. Live with MOXIE".
Danielle White is one of the founders and creators at LOVE & MOXiE in Savannah, Georgia. Along with her mom Renee, Danielle has built a fashionable, vibrant, functional AND do-good business that has become quite the hot "go-to-spot". LOVE & MOXiE focuses on handcrafted small-batch, one-of-a-kind bags and accessories too - BUT know this - we weren't kidding about the NCIS!
After Danielle's mom was diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer's, she decided to pivot from a 15+year career in law enforcement and move to Savannah so she could "cherish the time we had - living our lives to the fullest on our own terms". And my goodness, they are doing just that!
Danielle describes LOVE & MOXiE's vibe as classic with a twist, a dash of whimsey and a whole lot of craftsmanship and function. This dynamic duo is also giving back to Alzheimer's care and research. Two-dollars of every item sold are donated to two very important Alzheimer's charities: Savannah's Senior Citizen's INC and New York City's CaringKind.

Sitting across the table today is Hermina Glass-Hill - historian, writer, preservationist, sustainability advocate - a voice for environmental justice and human rights - Oceana's Georgia Senior Field Representative - and the foremost scholar on Susie King Taylor in the United States.
Hermina recalls what she felt when she first read Susie King Taylor's book back in 2009 - "I was shocked. I had traveled to Savannah for business thousands of times, and when I read it, I was like ... this is all about Georgia, Savannah, you know the Coastal area. I worked in the Civil War Center at Kennesaw State University - and I was like holy smoke, what?!?! I am Georgia born and bred and listen - I know everything there is to know about Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, and Clara Barton who started the American Red Cross - but I had never heard anything about Susie King Taylor, and she's from my home state. And I decided that I wanted to do something about this."

Historian and Savannah Tour Guide Enocha Edenfield has spent years carefully researching Savannah’s haunted history as well as collecting first-hand accounts. She's always a favorite guest on this show - and many others - and she's sitting down with us to celebrate LOVE MONTH by pulling back the creepy, dusty curtain on some recent "encounters" as well as Georgia's first murder trial.
Have you heard about Alice Riley? She's one of the central figures in the first murder trial in Georgia. The trial resulted in her alleged co-conspirator being hanged. But Alice revealed that she was pregnant. I'll leave the rest of this horrible story for Enocha to tell.
