January 13, 2023 [Ep.60 Paranormal] In The Arms of The Mothman & Sims Style Devil Age-Up
WE ARE BACK! It's season 3 loves!
We are kicking this season off very similarly to how this whole thing started, with Paranormal! This time around though, we get to drink a drink that we like. Brittany is drinking a gin & tonic, naturally. Skylar is sipping on a strawberry cider (mainly because she forgot the drink and Brittany had some in her fridge)... Since this is the first time we have seen each other in a while there is quite a lot of opening banter. If you would prefer to skip all of our nonsense, you are going to want to skip ahead to the 20 minute mark. You will be missing some holiday tales & bunk-bed slander. As well as two anecdotes of Skylar's mom wildin'.

Brittany talks some about one of her personal favorite cryptids and everyone's fave paranormal boyfriend: The Mothman. You probably know the stories, but it seemed a fitting way to kick start season 3. She discusses the original sighting reports, popular theories, and the Silver Bridge tragedy. We also casually pitch the perfect setting for a future Mothman animated series. Please DM us if interested.

In her section, Skylar discusses The Pine Barrens. This area is full of many different wild tales and hauntings. This is also the area of another cryptid: The Jersey Devil. Skylar talks some about The Jersey Devil, including its origins and some reported encounters, including a crossover no one could guess. She also covers a few of the popular ghosts in the area & how to potentially summon them according to local legends. There's also a Robin Hood-ish criminal and a headless pirate!

December 23, 2022 [Ep.59 Cooking] Cheese: Melted. Crust: Crusty.
Welcome back for another episode and also, the season 2 FINALE!
Once again we find ourselves back in the kitchen! This round it was Brittany's turn to pick and the drink was: red wine. Know that that was the drink, Brittany decided on making homemade pizza. Not just any homemade pizza though, a gluten-free mushroom pizza. (Richard may have recently developed a gluten allergy)
We don't really have any specific topics this time around. We just kinda chit-chat and catch up. We haven't recorded anything new in 2 weeks-ish so we haven't seen each other. Also, we were fighting time with this recording because a winter storm was literally blowing in as we were making this pizza and we needed to get Skylar home. There's some weird glitch theory talk, a Skylar holiday party story, some TMI health talk, and of course, some good ole' Stardew Valley discussions.
**This was recorded while we were actually cooking/eating this meal, so there are many sounds you might hear in a kitchen setting. Therefore, there may be some jarring bangs, clangs, and hisses. If you are sensitive to sudden sounds, please keep this in mind. There's also quite a few dog barks and cat meows this go around.
As always, thanks for listening!
xCheers!

December 16, 2022 [Ep.58 Culture, Travel, & Language] Just Slip It Through The Wine Hole 'Cause We're Nothing If Not Thieves
Welcome to another episode!
This week we are back on our couch classroom to hopefully teach you a few things. (Although, to be real, Skylar is a little salty this episode.) So get your notebooks ready! We are going to be doing this while drinking something we like for yet another week. Skylar is enjoying a tasty, and loud, smoothie while Brittany is sipping on some red wine, just don't ask her what kind of red.
Brittany is going to discuss some facts, knowledge, legends, etc. about Italy. Italy obviously is a very historical, important, and timely country so Brittany's section is a very, very light dive into some cultural aspects. There's some attire talk, food talk, and of course some wine discussion. As well as some folklore and a fun little detail about a resurgence of a tool from the renaissance period.
Skylar is going to touch on some basics with teaching us Italian. She did not technically pick this language herself, and she has some beef with her book this time around. Therefore, her section may not be as detailed as she normally prefers to be in these episodes. She does manage to do a nice light introduction to the language though. Including some nice details about pronunciation as well as some common terms.
Skylar would like to remind everyone that she is by no means an expert or an official teacher. She is simply someone who loves to learn, loves to share her passions, and loves languages. She is completely self-taught, and she is constantly trying to better learn herself in all areas, this, of course, includes the Italian language. As we are both just trying this episode to teach ourselves more about the world, and hopefully you as well, we are completely open and willing to learning more on the subject, or if there are any corrections anyone might have to share with us.

As always, thanks so much for listening! If you enjoy us enough to share or recommend us to a friend, we would love you that much more!
xCheers!

December 09, 2022 [Ep.57 History] Drunk Taco Bell & Only Saying 'Mile' With A Southern Accent
Welcome to another episode!
This week we get to talk a little about some history and we get to do this while drinking something we like. This week Brittany is enjoying a caramel apple cider and Skylar is once again having a canned Moscow mule.
Brittany tells some of the story of Juliane Koepcke. In 1971, when Juliane was 17 years old, she survived the LANSA Flight 508 plane crash. Then, after falling almost 2 miles while strapped to her seat, she survived 11 days alone in the Amazon rainforest. She is a survivor and has gone though some horrible and traumatic things, and we talk some about what that was like.
Skylar goes on to talk about the most significant accident in US commercial nuclear power plant history. This is referring to The Three Mile Island accident. This accident was a partial meltdown of the Three Mile Island, Unit 2 reactor in Pennsylvania. It began at 4 AM on March 28, 1979. You can also enjoy Skylar's lovely southern accent coming out multiple times during her segment.

December 02, 2022 [Ep.56 Internet] 18% Fboy & Gaslit By Buzzfeed
Welcome to another episode!
This week we got to drink a drink we like. Brittany is drinking a pumpkin cider and Skylar is having a canned Moscow Mule. We sip on these while talking all about our topic of internet.
Brittany is back with more Reddit AITAH, but this time they are all Thanksgiving themed. Nothing says a 'Family Holiday' like some drama being brought to the internet. After that she makes Skylar take 3 different "5000 Character Personality Quizzes" to see if they all give her the same results. You can find links to each below.
1st Quiz
2nd Quiz
3rd Quiz

Skylar also picked out some AITAH reddit threads and is once again doing cold-reads. Meaning, she did not read any of hers beforehand and wanted an honest and real reaction to them. After that, she makes Brittany take a few bizarre and weird Buzzfeed quizzes...again. Which you can find links to down below.
Ideal Saturday = Personality
Which Famous Painting
Rate My Professor Score
Final Girl
Soulmate's Eye Color
Buy Some Merch = Fave Studio Ghibli
Build a Bento = Anime Personality

This recording was a lot of fun for us and we hope you also had fun listening to it. While the topic of 'internet' is very broad, we do quite like this commentary and quiz format for it. If you have any suggestions for us to switch it up, or if you have a specific quiz or reddit thread you would like us to discuss we would love for you to reach out to us and suggest it!
As always, thanks so much for listening! If you enjoy us enough to share or recommend us to a friend, we would love you that much more!

November 25, 2022 [Ep.55 Random] Casual Accepted Cannibalism & Baseball With Creed
Welcome to another episode!
This week we got to choose literally whatever we wanted to talk about because we got the topic 'random' and boy, did we deliver on the random aspect. We also got to drink something we like, so we really got to do just whatever we wanted to do this week, which is a very dangerous thing.
Brittany is drinking a gimlet which is: gin, simple syrup, and lots of lime juice. Thanks Emily Gilmore, cheers! While sipping on this, she talks about the fact that there should be more mummies in the world. However, in the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries, Europeans were just kinda eating them and also painting with them. So, yeah..that's an unfortunate thing that happened in the past.

Skylar is drinking some sauvignon blanc while telling us about the disaster event that was Woodstock 99. Woodstock 99 was a 4 day music festival held in upstate New York. After Woodstock '94 it was the second large-scale music festival that attempted to emulate the OG '69 Woodstock festival. However, this particular music festival was just a complete and utter disaster.
**Trigger Warnings for: violence, rape, and sexual assault
*This episode does have a little bit more background interruptions than normal, so please excuse us for that. Also, Brittany's section had a lot of names that she most likely butchered and would like to be forgiven for. Sorry!*

November 18, 2022 [Ep.54 Literature] Mirrors Be Weird
Welcome to another episode!
This week is a very special episode because we get to talk about one of Skylar's most favorite things in the world and we get to talk about this while sipping on some white wine. Which is another thing very near and dear to Skylar's heart. So if you cannot tell, this week is very Skylar-centric and we are here for it. Our topic this week is 'Literature' so we are going to be discussing the book: The Raven Boys.
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater is the first of four books in a contemporary/urban fantasy series. The Raven Boys was published in 2012 and as mentioned above, this is one of Skylar's favorite things. (Just don't ask her what these books are about..)
If you are a fan of fantasy or just a fan of Skylar, this is a nice extra long episode to settle in for. This book has all of the good things we love here: tarot, magic, humor, dream birds, found family, and a whole bunch of heart. *As with all of our literature episodes, please be aware that this is so very full of spoilers. And for this book, this warning weighs heavier than usual since this is our first crack at taking on a multi-book series*
As always, thanks so much for listening! If you enjoy us enough to share or recommend us to a friend, we would love you that much more!

November 11, 2022 [Ep.53 Just Chatting] Jalapeno Panic Attack & The Time Skylar Ruined Christmas
Welcome to another episode!
This week we are drinking some impulse bought white wine and stealing from Twitch. Our 'topic' this week is more of a non-topic so come join us as we just chit-chat about nothing for a bit.
We cover a wide range of nothing, which is something we excel at. We talk some about Henry Cavill, young people making us feel old, contact issues that lead to panic attacks, smut, smut, smut, and much more. Also, Skylar may or may not be on some crisis helpline watchlist and she also tells a casual story about the time she accidentally got high and then ruined Christmas. It's a fun casual time this week!
As always, thanks so much for listening! If you enjoy us enough to share or recommend us to a friend, we would love you that much more!

November 04, 2022 [Ep.52 True Crime] Attic With A 'T' On The End & Weird Remembering
Welcome to another episode!
This week the drink was 'red wine' and the topic was 'true crime' A duo that we get pretty regularly around here. Skylar wasn't feeling up to drinking this week though, so it's just Brittany sipping on some 19 Crimes wine.
Brittany talks about the Walburga Oesterreich case. Walburga was a German-born American housewife. She was married to a wealthy textile manufacturer Fred Oesterreich. Walburga gained public interest when she became the number one suspect of shooting her husband. Her involvement in the murder though, was very hard to prove. This is a case full of twists and turns, and it just gets very bizarre. If you think you know what's going to happen, you might be very wrong.
This is much more 'bizarre' than it is upsetting, but still Trigger Warnings for: murder, guns, grooming, enslavement

Skylar covers the American serial killer David Meirhofer. Meirhofer confessed to 4 murders in Montana between 1967-1974 (Three of these were children). He first became under police interest with the kidnapping of 7 year old Susan Jaeger. If interested in more on this story Mariette Jaeger, Susan's mom, wrote a book describing her side of the terrible incident. It's called The Lost Child.
Trigger warnings for: kidnapping, murder, taunting, crimes involving young children, etc.

October 28, 2022 [Ep.51 Movies] Crying in the Driveway & Unnecessarily Large Shards of Glass
Welcome to another episode!
This week we are talking about a movie while drinking something we don't like! Skylar got distracted on her way to recording and actually forgot to get her drink, but it all worked out because it turns out she didn't like what Brittany was having either. Therefore, the pair are begrudgingly sipping on some Root-beer and Vodkas. It's quite gross, do not recommend. While they are choking those drinks down they are discussing the movie: You're Next. It's Halloween week so this seems like the perfect pick!

You're Next is a 2011 American slasher film. The film centers on an estranged family who all meet up to celebrate their parents anniversary in a secluded house. Only to then find themselves under attack by a group of masked assailants, with a few twists and turns throughout.
The film was edited and directed by Adam Wingard. It stars Sharni Vinson, Nicholas Tucci, Wendy Glenn, A.J. Bowen, Joe Swanberg, Barbara Crampton, and Rob Moran. It's a classic slasher full of gore, camp-y moments, and dark humor. It's a quick watch, as most of the movie takes place in one hectic night and is only a little over 90 minutes long. If you love a good final girl and don't mind some blood, you will probably like this movie.
**Spoiler warning, if you have not seen this movie and would like it to not be ruined for you**
