Have you ever felt hexed? You just might be! In this episode, Greg and Dana discuss a particularly nasty cursed object meant to cause the slow and painful demise of its intended target. Fortunately, Dana has some witchcraft up her sleeve. If you've ever wondered how to destroy a curse, we've got you covered. Plus, Greg embraces the power of the producer's chair, Dana learns to always read the note, and Bigfoot converts to Mormonism.
