August 03, 2023 S2E9: Fog Machine + Cloaks = Satanic Ritual? - Taylor Swift's "Willow" Performance
Welp, we thought this was just gonna be a 30 minute or less bonus...but turns out we had some things to say! In this episode we discuss Taylor Swift's "controversial" performance of willow on The Eras Tour as well as how it may be fanning the flames of witch/non-Christian discrimination (or worse).

July 13, 2023 S2E8: Lightilghters & Darkdarkers - Charmed
In this episode, Kyla briefly introduces Kaija to the world of Charmed (1998), a world in which 3 sisters (the Charmed Ones) fight evil, save innocents, work day jobs & have tumultuous love lives. Admittedly, the ADHD hit hard this episode. If requested, perhaps we'll cover season 2 in the future 😅
