Ep. 6: Curious History Tours, with Kathleen Davis
Kathleen Davis is a comedian who, along with her wife Gail, moved to Lynchburg, VA, in late 2020. Her insatiable curiosity and hilarious sense of humor led her to create “Curious History Tours.” These tours dive deep into Lynchburg’s wildly colorful past, delivering jaw-dropping trivia that will sometimes make you cringe but often make you laugh. Kathleen is a welcoming and caring person who uses her approachability to connect and engage the community in meaningful conversations aimed at improving relationships for everyone and maximizing the potential of Lynchburg.
As you will quickly hear, she obviously cracks me up, and I had the best time doing this episode with her. Kathleen is another hero of mine, and her spirit simply lights my soul. I hope you get a kick out of this conversation and come away inspired to make a difference in your community as much as I did. Enjoy!
