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.

Camp Counselors with Zachariah Porter and Jonathan Carson

In this mini episode we are reading listener submitted stories about a camper who might uproot her life to Japan for her man in the Navy, a Ukrainian queen of the night club, and the tale of a ghost nurse in the most terrifying lunch shift in 1986. Want BONUS CONTENT? Join our PATREON!
