Strange Talk

This Strange Talk broadcast Alyx and Robin are joined by Calla Rowan. Calla Rowan is a Folk Magick practitioner of eight years. She has strong influences in her practice from her Catholic upbringing. Calla has had paranormal experiences since she was a child and began practicing magic as a way to regulate seeing spirits in her day to day. She specializes in creating charm bags, holy soaps, and blessed candles. Since Calla will be a semi-regular guest, this week we get to know our guest and hosts a little better by taking a little quiz: which cryptid are you? Then we talk some haunted roads including the famous route 66!
Music for this episode includes the Strange Talk intro by Star Silk, No Shame by RELIC, and Ocean Waves by Sean Payne. Backing tracks by LoFiGeek.

This week Alyx and Robin are talking strange with Lee from the Luckily, Cryptid and Critters podcast. We get down to weird news like toadzilla, a bigfoot sighting on Google Earth, a UFO sighting over Turkey, a weird cloud formation over the UK, and a returned hot dog statue in WV. We ponder on creating a Bigfoot Lake Yacht club, discuss favorite cryptids, talk about drones, and what extraterrestrial life might look like. Alyx also gives a small and vague review of Canadian experimental horror film Skinamarink written and directed by Kyle Edward Ball.
