This week, Emma and Marissa chatted with two friends we know from college (shoutout Vassar) who started a cool new blog about their nerdiness and witchiness (aptly named “Witches & Nerds”). We chatted about college, the witchy zeitgeist, and having real-life job skills. Plus, books bound in human skin, stolen college artifacts, and identifying as a writer. And as always, the things that have been bewitching us lately.

Witches Brew: The Matthew Vassar. Mostly cheap beer, glitter, and sexual frustration.
