In this episode, a mystery is unraveling itself before our very eyes campers! Who is Marc? Where is Fatima?! Then, we take a road trip (watch out for potholes) to a Pennsylvania town with a surprisingly creative solution to fix their streets. Plus, we've got a 138 year old tortoise who's proving it's never too late to become a dad. And obviously so much more I can't type out because my hands are tired.This episode was mixed and edited by Kevin Betts.Want BONUS CONTENT?

140 - Leading With Whimsy
This week at Camp Shady Birch, we’re taking a wild ride... LITERALLY. Counselor Z discovers a log flume for sale on Facebook Marketplace, and baby that’s just the beginning. Not to be dramatic but we suffered the ultimate bait-and-switch from an oil painting seller who yanked the art right out of our hands. We are thrashing out and lashing out in this episode, yall. And little miss U-Haul? She's in the trash. Bill Nye however... is not ;) Let's get WHIMSICAL! (sung to the tune of Physical by Olivia Newton John).This episode was mixed and edited by Kevin Betts.Want BONUS CONTENT?

139 - We Bought A House And Moved Hundreds of Miles Away!
Surprise! We bought a house! In this episode, we unpack (emotionally, not physically... we are still avoiding the boxes and Buffy likes to sit on them) the chaotic rollercoaster of home buying. The stress, mama! The Scotch Tape Scam of it all!! Each day, our deep disdain for cheapo house flippers wallows deeper and deeper lol. We also discuss why packing is dreadful and why we’d rather be bald in a suit at a Pitbull concert. Plus, we pay our respects to Mother Ethel Cain.

About Camp Counselors with Zachariah Porter and Jonathan Carson
Hey Happy Campers! Camp Counselors is a good natured podcast hosted by your favorite fake camp counselors Zachariah and Jonathan. Here at Camp Shady Birch we love the great outdoors in theory, but we’d rather spend our time making friendship bracelets, spreading camper gossip, keeping our heads in the clouds, and avoiding archery. We know we would make great camp counselors minus the fact that we know nothing about camping. So grab your sunscreen and bug spray because things are about to get campy.
