If These Walls...

We love our pop culture witches, but it's not all midnight margaritas and suave talking cats for the history of witchcraft. In this episode we discuss the origins of how to define a witch (thanks misogyny!) as well as why witch hunts are still prevalent in the Indian state of Gujurat to this day (again, thanks misogyny!). Witches: the #1 scapegoat of insecure men throughout history.

We've all had them, we've all hated them. If we're lucky we got out alive; if we're extra lucky we made a lifelong friend. In this episode we talk famous roommates, our roommate histories, sitcom roomies, and we talk through some horrific roommate scenarios. Don't. Leave. Your. Hair. In. Shared. Spaces.

In our second Unsolved Mysteries episode, we drift away from true crime (you're welcome), and discuss...decomposing bodies. Or rather, bodies that don't decompose. Incorruptible saints are the topic of the day! Audrey covers St Bernadette's journey to sainthood and her body that just won't quit...(that was very wrong). What's her skin care routine? Listen and find out!
