January 25, 2020 Episode 64: Great Balls of Fire.
Welcome! Kim is on the floor as Laura tells us the story of the 1963 government experiment of radiation effects on testicles. You read that right. It's terrible. In the second half of our episode, Kim tells you about a couple witches in Greek mythology. This is a pretty bad episode for men all around...

May your ex die in a particularly unspectacular way like Jason, who betrayed his wife.

January 18, 2020 Episode 63: Help us unpack this griefcase, and this clusterf-
How is January treating you, little roastlings? Hopefully better than the stranger than fiction-like story of Victoria Cilliers, her whack-ass husband Emile, and the other women he manipulated. Later, we talk about the origins of Jesus's grandmother. You read that right. Help us unpack.

January 11, 2020 Episode 62: *jumps out of a bush* I'm a Baroness!
We have a short episode for you today but hot damn, is there a lot to unpack here! We discuss the strange life and death of Simon Dale, his ex-wife Susan Wilberforce/de Stempel and their peculiar marriage and divorce. Later, we go over Janus and new beginnings (partially because Kim discussed Sailor Pluto with Cody over at Canadian Kooks. Take a listen to our friends. Also, watch Sailor Moon). And remember, no dick is worth killing your friend over.

December 14, 2019 Episode 58: Get in, Loser. We're going to Blockula.
In this week's episode, Laura covers the story of Rita Gorgonowa, a lady who may or may not have done messed up things. Let us know what you think. Kim regales us with stories of 3 witches in history (Agnes Sampson, Merga Bien, Malin Matsdotter) who were probably more innocent than you think. Because it's been a while since she bummed you out like that. There's also a ghost, horoscopes, and cows...?
