The Northern Outer Banks Podcast kicks off its very first episode with a journey through time. Local historian Barbara Snowden joins us to share her deep knowledge of Currituck’s evolving story, weaving together the past and present in a way that reminds us why this place is so special.

From the days when duck hunting drew visitors from across the country, to the rise of tourism as the backbone of The Northern Outer Banks economy, Barbara paints a vivid picture of the people, traditions, and industries that shaped Currituck. She takes us past the historic landmarks that have stood the test of time, reminding us how each structure carries a piece of the county’s legacy. And she doesn’t stop there—Barbara also reflects on the unique visual appeal of the area, exploring how its natural beauty has remained both a challenge and a treasure for generations.

Whether you’re a lifelong resident, a history buff, or a visitor eager to learn more about this corner of North Carolina, you’ll find yourself drawn into the stories that make Currituck unlike anywhere else. This first episode sets the stage for a podcast series that will celebrate the people, history, and culture of the Northern Outer Banks.
