We're reading AITA Reddit stories today! This is Part 1 of a new series we're doing where we read and answer questions people on Reddit have about whether or not they were the AH during a construction project. 

There will be some cringing and laughter from our side - but hopefully we will also be able to answer any questions or concerns you may relate to regarding your own home project! Stay tuned because there's more to come!

Since it's now the "spooky month", we thought we would try something a little different for this episode and talk about a haunted house - but this isn't any ordinary haunted house...
For this special episode, Rhiannon shares with us the love story that built this beautiful and historical building. We do a deep dive into the unique architecture and the craftsmanship that went into creating this amazing structure - and share why it has been on the market for 14 years...
