Grab your popcorn (and maybe a nightlight) because in this episode, I’m counting down my top 20 horror movies of all time. From spine-chilling classics to modern nightmares that will keep you up, I’ll share why each one made the list, the moments that left me breathless, and what makes them unforgettable. Whether you’re a seasoned horror fan or just dipping your toes into the creepy waters, this list has something to scare, thrill, and entertain.

In this heartwarming episode, we sit down with Nicole from the Milo Foundation, a nonprofit rescue organization devoted to saving animals and connecting them with loving forever homes. Together, we explore the emotional and logistical challenges of animal rescue, the power of second chances, and the community it takes to give every creature the life they deserve.

Whether you're an animal lover, a future adopter, or simply curious about the behind-the-scenes world of rescue, this conversation will leave you inspired and hopeful. Tune in to hear touching rescue stories, the Milo Foundation's philosophy on animal welfare, and how you can be part of the movement to protect our furry companions.

In this first historical recap episode, we dive into the big question: what does it mean to be a historian? We explore how storytelling, memory, and research shape our understanding of the past—and why that matters now more than ever.

We break down the history and power of labor unions, the role of collective organizing, and how everyday people have shaped major historical shifts. Plus, we talk about primary sources (what they are and why they're gold), how to spot bias in historical narratives, and the importance of asking: whose story is this?

Because history should include all of us—not just the ones who made it into the footnotes.
