  • Melrose Abbey and Morticia

    “Hearts are wild creatures, that’s why or ribs are cages.” -Morticia Addams

    Last Saturday night we were invited by our friends from the Graveyard Mafia Hearse Club to attend a private event.  This event was for FUNERAL DIRECTORS at the historic Melrose Abbey Memorial Park located in Anaheim California.

    This was a pleasant surprise as we were able to walk the grounds, crypts, chapel and basement at night. We met up with our friends Cameron and Dante who escorted us around this spirited place.

    Along the way we met MorTRICIA who kindly showed us to Carolyn Jones (actress that played Morticia in the 1964 The Addams family tv show) resting place.

    How did The Addams family come to be anyway? Well let us fill you in on some fun facts, while discussing our night out.

    A special thank you to our friends, T’s hubs Paxton for taking photos and our surprise on the spot interview guest Ronnie.

  • Interview with a Vampire Book vs movie and TV SERIES

    In anticipation of the TV series coming out and in memory of Anne Rice we decided to re-read The Vampire Chronicles Interview with the Vampire earlier this year.
    We were heading to New Orleans and felt this would be the perfect Virtual Book Club pick.  Be sure to follow our Instagram account for Book Club announcements.

    So why not re-watch the 1994 movie too?  Well as you know, the book is not only different but usually always better in most cases.  Anne Rice 1976 novel solidified her stance on inclusion of all outcast.  Introducing us to “sumptuous romance, female sexuality  and queerness - many took “Interview w/the Vampire” as an allegory for homosexuality - to the supernatural genre.” - npr.org

    Book vs movie and AMC+

  • BONUS EPISODE w/Adam of Ghost Tour Charleston

    This past Spring  we spent a few days in Charleston, South Carolina.  Have you been? Well if you haven’t, you need to add it to your travel list.  Charleston is full of blissful charm but its DARK HISTORY resonates.

    Of the three haunting tours we took Ghost Tour Charleston hosted by Adam and found on Airbnb was our FAVORITE!

    Adam leads you through downtown Charleston telling spooky stories you can fact check.  That was a highlight of his tour but his true talent is his STORY TELLING.  His magnetic energy and enthusiasm really made his tour NEXT LEVEL fun.

    We became fast friends and had to ask him to be on our show.  Thank you Adam for obliging us.  So here is our BONUS EPISODE for you to enjoy.  Season 3 is in the works.  

    In this episode we chat about

    • The Old City Jail
    • Charleston’s paranormal activity
    • The Dungeon

    HOT DAMN! Enjoy this bonus episode.

    You can find Adam at www.ghosttourcharleston.com

  • It’s a Wonderful Life 1946

    Trigger Warning. Episode does mention Suicide in regards to movie story line.
    National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 800-273-8255

    It’s a Wonderful Life starring Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed was not a box office hit.  So how did it become a family tradition over the holiday season? Tamantha’s family has watched this movie annually beginning it Christmas Eve night before bed and finishing it Christmas morning. 

    If you haven’t watched this film in a while or not at all it’s a bright light amongst the Holiday romcom’s and salacious favorites.  This movie is nostalgic yes, but it is also delightfully funny, romantic and suspenseful as George Bailey discovers why his Life is IMPORTANT no matter the dramatic situation he finds himself in on Christmas Eve.

    Find out why this movie resonates today and is worth a watch.

    Christmas Punch TheBusyBaker
    1 cup apple juice
    3 cinnamon sticks
    a few whole cloves
    2 star anise
    4 cups cranberry juice
    1 cup pineapple juice
    1 cup orange juice
    2-3 cups champagne - ginger ale
    Orange slice, cinnamon sticks, cranberrries, pomegranate arils & star anise for garnish.

    The day before you’ll be making the punch, open the lid to the apple juice container & place the cinnamon sticks, star anise & cloves inside.  Replace the lid & put the apple juice in the fridge overnight.
    The next day, add the apple juice to a pitcher or punch bowl along w/the cranberry juice, the pineapple juice & orange juice.
    Add the champagne or sparkling  wine, if making an alcoholic version or ginger-ale for non-alcoholic punch.  You can also use ginger beer.
    Stir well to combine and add the orange slices, cinnamon sticks, cranberries, pomegranate arils and star anise to the pitcher or punch bowl for garnish.
    Add ice and serve.

    We mixed spices and juices  in a pitcher the night before our episode recording.  Before this episode we poured juice in glasses and topped off with ginger ale then garnished with orange wheel, pomegranate arils and cinnamon stick.  It was gorgeously festive and tasty.

    Please rate, subscribe and check out our
    patreon and youtube channels.  This is our last podcast episode for Season 2 as we venture on to create more visual content.

    It’s a Wonderful Life is available on Amazon Prime in Black & White or Technicolor.  It’s 75th anniversary edition is sold by Turner Classic Movies.
