Things we love....90s nostalgia, creepy stories, and snacks. This episode features all of those things in some capacity. Today we talk some ghost stories that have a slight food theme. First we take a trip to New Orleans, then we travel back to Niagara, and then a little further on the 401 to Toronto. It's like a ghost tour for your ears! We hope you enjoy.

OK, if you're not hearing Cecile from Cruel Intentions softly singing "Secret Society" in your head right now, we can't be friends. KIDDING, but seriously, you should go watch the movie. Anywho, secret societies have been around for years. There's a draw to them because of their exclusivity and mystery. But these clubs sometimes come with a price. You might have to perform crazy stunts, or dress a certain way, or literally pay money. Some secret clubs have dark goings on, and others are simply clubs for rich men to pee on trees. I just want to be part of a secret society that parties like the Life and Death Brigade....I'm all over those shenanigans.

This episode discusses sexual abuse and sexual assault, so listener discretion is advised. Today we continue our look at the twisty turny world of NXIVM by diving further into Keith's unsavoury dealings, the involvement of the Bronfman sisters, and the secret inner society of DOS and Allison Mack. As I always say, we have only scratched the surface, there is sooo much more to all of this, but I think trying to put it all together broke our brains. We hope you are intrigued with what we have to say and maybe to do your own deep dive. There are sooo many rabbit holes to get lost in with this people!  As always, you can find us on Instagram at @ithappenedtoafriendofafriend or you can email us with your weird and/or creepy stories at [email protected]. Enjoy!
