Witches on the Couch

Its our autumn holiday episode! Also a happy surprise is that we actually really enjoyed this episode. Your hosts are a little silly and not completely keeping to the plan, but its the holiday episode and we enjoy ourselves. Join us as we follow Raele and Tally in the Cession and have the best time with Abigail and Adil back at the Bellweather Manor. Drinks are had, stories are told, and laughs are everywhere. Grab a plate, pour a drink, take a break, and come join us on the couch!

Getting to the mid season point of Motherland Fort Salem. Niki is so frustrated in this episode that it sometimes not controlled. Explain the universe Fort Salem. Still we make a valiant effort to get through the episode and have some fun jokes along the way. M is here so that makes everything better! We reach for a deep dive connection and discuss Water Magic. A small look at how we have used water in our practices, and tools and plants that any witch can use in theirs. Take a break, grab a drink of water, and come join us on the couch!

Much to Niki's chagrin, we witches continue with Motherland Fort Salem! This episode had some more interesting details but we still hate the editing choices it seems (see Niki's rant right before our deep dive on storm magic). Also, be warned, we have a minor issue with static in the background that shows up randomly throughout... In this slightly shorter episode, we wonder why so many plot points are introduced as if they're major then treated as if they aren't, reminisce about the hearing tests we've had in our lives, and take a moment to appreciate our high school curriculum (now that we've been out in the world, we think they did a pretty good job!). Grab a drink and join us on the couch!

Come hither as we return to Motherland: Fort Salem with season 2 episode 1 "Of The Blood". We found it...underwhelming. Especially as a season starter. Take a listen, though, as we discuss what tanked and the few golden threads that we cannot wait to hear more on! Jade cuts off Niki a bunch (sorry Niki!), we hyperfixate on a variety of details, and follow up with a deep dive on a few of our favorite magical creatures and their mythos. Grab a drink and join us on the couch!

Before diving back into Motherland Fort Salem we thought we would take a deeper look at the Salem Witch Trials. We also found this as our opportunity to welcome our first guest! We go into this with our wonderful guest host Jeremy of the Babysitters Book Club podcast. Though we mostly cover The Crucible and the historical event of the Salem Witch Trials, this is definitely a more playful episode. Featuring vocab lessons, Scooby Doo, the WWE, and a ton of laughter. Fun to film and fun to listen to through and through. Grab a drink, get a babysitter, and come join us on the couch!

After finishing another TV season, we like to take a little break and do a movie. Join us as we revisit a childhood favorite: Twitches! This Disney classic may not be as mystical as we remembered, but it does have lot of fun moments we delighted in. Tia and Tamera Mowry are always great and the nostalgia is there. Help us fight the darkness! Grab a snack, pour a drink, and come join us on the couch.

Season Finale!! Unfortunately we were still having some sound problems, so Jade may still kinda sound like she's chilling in a metal box. Thankfully we have now fixed this problem, so next episode should be back to usual quality. We can also start posting more often again, as we won't have to spend as much time trying to edit with the sound error. Witches of East End was so much fun and we're so glad we got to do all of season 1 . Thank you everyone for coming with us on the ride. It is finally time for Freya's wedding and a whirlwind of magical events that follow. We finish the episode with a deep dive into wedding superstitions because obviously. Grab a drink, take a break, and come join us on the couch!

We return to quite possibly our favorite episode of Witches of East End yet! Sorry if the volume is a little wonky in places, we had some issues with the microphones, but did our very best to clean it up. Also rest assured we are recording for the new Motherland Fort Salem season and will sprint to catch up a bit with the show. The end of this episode sadly ages how long ago we recorded it. Still we giggle and have an excellent time with the spells, characters, and scenes that is this incredible episode. Our deep dive is a bit more serious as we tackle the very difficult topic of blood magic, not advocating for self harm. So grab a drink, take a break, and come join us on the couch!
