Description
This week on Tidewater Talk, Co and Brodie talk about a Virginia Beach cold case finally being solved more than 40 years later through advances in DNA technology and genetic genealogy. They also dive into this week’s Strange and Odd of Tidewater featuring Fort Norfolk, a hidden Army fort along the Elizabeth River that dates back to George Washington’s original coastal defense system and somehow stayed under the radar for nearly 20 years of military life in Hampton Roads.
Plus, storms and flooding give way to a nicer weekend forecast, Brodie learns an important lesson about kayaking at low tide, and the neighbors debate whether
Tidewater is underrated or “culturally irrelevant.”
