Who am I?

I am Big Papa Rob. I have been a natural storyteller most of my life. Realized quickly that doing it in front of a microphone wasn’t as easy as I expected it to be. I like telling the history of a person place or thing. When I can I like to leave you guessing who or what I’m talking about. Most recently I’ve started doing stories of missing persons in hopes to get information out there that will bring answers to the families struggling for answers I’ve always liked history and facts about people, places or things. I also liked how Paul Harvey would do the rest of the story, leaving you guessing who he was talking about. That’s how I started out trying to do with my early podcasts. Most lately I have been doing stories about missing persons. The desperation of families looking for their loved ones weigh heavily on my mind. So I’ve taken my platform lately to reporting on missing persons. I’ve always been a true crime listener myself during my commute. I hope that my “The Missing” series I’ve been doing will somehow reach someone with answers for these loved ones left behind.

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

My first few will be about the historic stories of people that you may not know their history during the event that changed and or ended their life. 3 others may be a slightly dry subject but I found interesting. These are disasters that could have been prevented if laws had been in place. and finally, my last two episodes of “The Missing” I tell you the story of 2 young ladies that disappeared.

What is my podcast playlist about?

To me this subject is the same as the previous. My first few will be about the historic stories of people that you may not know their history during the event that changed and or ended their life. 3 others may be a slightly dry subject but I found interesting. These are disasters that could have been prevented if laws had been in place. and finally, my last two episodes of “The Missing” I tell you the story of 2 young ladies that disappeared.

3. EP 9 The Tragic Fire of 1911

Why this podcast?

I had a request to do this story and as I dug into it, it lead me to do 3 more stories. Related to how they played a part in the push for OSHA. My day job as a safety Manager, made me realize how good we have it now compared to when these stories took place

5. Ep 18 2 The Missing Keeslyn Noell Roberts

Why this podcast?

This one is my second “The Missing” podcast. This one hit home to me because I’m from Georgia. The truck stop this young lady went missing from, I’ve stopped there many times in my travels up north to see family. To tell a story of this type about an area you have been too hits home. And the family is still searching for answers.
