October 2021: Don't Be Such a Tengu!


Listen Later

The Library Pros™ are doing the Time Warp (again!), this time all the way back to October! It's a wild ride of a month in which Laurel and Brittany have a little too much fun with Harry Potter names, we test a new segment known as Missed Opportunities: Barking Dawn Edition, some books just don't have enough pectin, and Modern Teens meet Millennial Nostalgia. Brittany gets defensive about Grunge music, Heather invents a new social media platform, we meet Anthony Porkchop in Matt's Cooking Corner, and we had to see a guy about a werewolf. All in a (spooky) month's work.
