When some people hear “historical society,” they think… boring. But the story of Overland Park is anything but.

In this episode of There’s Just Something About Kansas City, we’re joined by Brad Moore, Executive Director of the Overland Park Historical Society, for a deep dive into the people, places, and moments that shaped one of the largest cities in Johnson County.

Brad is more than a historian — he’s a storyteller, preservationist, and passionate advocate for bringing local history to life in fresh, engaging ways. From little-known stories and hidden gems to the legends of downtown Overland Park, he shares how history connects communities and gives deeper meaning to the places we live.

Frank is joined by his wife Sarah, Brad’s elementary school classmate, in hosting a conversation that blends personal stories with fascinating local insight.

Whether you’re a lifelong resident or new to the area, this episode will change the way you see Overland Park — and prove that history is anything but boring.
