Verbal Echo – Details, episodes & analysis

What happens when two women with a shared past in the restaurant industry reunite after years of strange jobs, wild coworkers, and even stranger experiences in the mountains?

In this After Dark episode of The Verbal Echo, Monica sits down with Sara to unpack how they met, bonded as coworkers in the chaos of restaurant life, and later found themselves navigating something far more mysterious—life in the mountains, camping under dark skies, unexplained encounters, and living alongside spirits that don’t clock out.

From possible Sasquatch activity in the wilderness to ghostly housekeeping in homes that never feel empty, this episode explores the female perspective on paranormal life, squatchery, and intuition—mixed with laughter, nostalgia, and a few “only in that job” stories from their service-industry days.

If you love paranormal experiences, cryptids, mountain living, and real conversations about the unseen, this one’s for you. Once the sun goes down, the echoes get louder…

John Olsen is an author and host of The Stranger Bridgerland Podcast. Each episode delves into the eerie and unexplained. Nestled in the scenic Cache Valley of northern Utah, John calls Wellsville home, where he lives with his wife and youngest son. When he’s not exploring the outdoors with his family, he’s diving into the supernatural.

John’s fascination with the paranormal began at a young age in his childhood home, an old farmhouse dating back to the 1880s. From mysterious knocks and phantom footsteps to unsettling encounters with what he calls the “man in the hat,” his experiences sparked a lifelong passion for the unknown. Despite his parents’ fears of judgment from their tight-knit community, John found solace in library books and personal encounters, leading him to discover that others had similar stories to share.

Over the past 25 years, John has dedicated himself to uncovering and documenting strange phenomena across the western United States. The Stranger Bridgerland series is your gateway to the extraordinary, featuring firsthand accounts of everything from ghosts and hauntings to Sasquatch and UFOs.

He's a teacher, a husband, a father, and now an author. His book is about...well, the easiest way to put it, do you remember when Dorothy lands in Munchkin Land in the Wizard of Oz, and the Munchkins tell her to follow the yellow brick road? Well, she started from a point where the yellow brick road unwound from a center, like a nautilus shell...only it was also wound around a red brick road...well, where does that go? This journey of self-discovery will help you find out where...

Are you a teacher wanting more support in your teaching career? Then this is the place for you! Listen anytime, learn, and become your best teacher self by diving into all things teaching.

From LinkedIn: "Teaching in 2024 is tougher than ever. Am I right?! This is a great place to get the knowledge, tools, and mentorship you need to succeed as a classroom teacher while enjoying an incredible life.

After 10 years of being in and out of the classroom, I realized that teachers were not provided the support and mentorship they truly needed and were looking for. Educators want the following:

- a classroom/behavior management plan that WORKS - opportunities to learn consistently - guidance on parent interactions + relationships - how to work as a team- lesson planning as a new teacher

That means... - individualized mentorship - understanding and creating a work-life balance - protecting your energy - classroom and behavior management - identity outside the classroom"

*Update Note: since we recorded, Adva's Kajabi course page appears to be down or under construction. Please reach out to Adva for updates on her educational courses.

She can also be found on Teachers Pay Teachers.
