Witch n Mix

And we're back again! For how long? Who can say! You’re welcome to skip our boring London journey discussion until28 mins when the New England Vampire tale begins. Grind my gears gets a bit dark this week… it’s because of the gothic tale I’m sure.

After a period of bad luck we are back with tales of timeslips. Mimi also went on a Pompey ghost walk - stay tuned for the monk at the Round Tower at some point in the near future/next year.

It’s part two of the Witches of Pendle and Liv takes us through the backstabbing trial. A child of 9 provided evidence against her own mum! It’s a new format now, with one story a week, which Liv forgot. But as always we’ve got pug interruptions, a touch of feminism, and what’s grinding our gears this week.

And we’re back again!

Mimi is so committed to the podcast that she got haunted purely for content. We discuss if it is acceptable to burn a hotel down because of a ghost, we’ve got an Uncannycon confession (an Uncannyconfession if you will), and being fat shamed by a surgeon.

Liv brings us part 1 of the Witches of Pendle – a tale about bloody men ruling the world basically. Or a tale about witches in the 1600s.

Enjoy!

Coming at you with another mini mix this week as we’ve got a sad update which we will share on the upcoming main episode, so this week we’re back with the mommoth book of hauntings, drunken banter (from Mimi) and a cheeky little cryptid which we’d recorded straight after the last mini! We also finally get to the bottom of how much a Freddo costs.

Luna and Molly feature on this one and we hope you love it.

How do you pronounce theatre? Is it theatre, or theatre?

It’s a mini! And we start off with a tangent. A few tangents. And then we get into Liv’s recent uninvited guest of a ghost that likes to throw stones and peep on her husband! Full blown shadows, they weren’t even subtle mate. 

Now, did I cut the 10 mins or so of my dogs going to the loo during fireworks? I did not. But you’ve got an insight into my evening routine and dogs butts. Enjoy!

Local tales of quicksand, topical millennial references, and a whole heap of dogs. This week Mimi is joined by special guest and friend of the pod, Danny! We discuss the Ourang Medan, or the oo rang me nan, aka the ghost ship mystery from the 1940s, where all crew members were discovered dead, with terror on their faces. Was it real?

Of course, there are many dogs featured this week. Liv is on holiday so we've got Molly, Teddy, Po, Luna, and the even more special guest, Snoop! Rocky is having a little break at his in laws!

Anyone else got a deep fear of aliens because of watching X Files too young? Us too. We finally hear those stories Liv has been saving, including the new one of the man on the landing. Aka, the pervert ghost. We are full of admiration and spooky revelations this week as Mimi tells the tale of the Hexham Heads along with a little bit of sexism from the '70s.

We're back witches! We've got life updates, we've got butts, we've got tarot, and we've got lurrrve.

Oh and we have a new theme song!

Cute poops and tarot! Rappins and tappins! After many tangents we finally get to part 2 of the Amityville haunting. The alleged haunting. What do YOU think of the story?

There are tangents. There are dogs being dicks. There is smut. Enjoy!
