Meghan and Allison are back remotely recording to bring you a new episode this week! Meghan begins the episode by explaining a ghost tour she went on in Arizona and then Allison talks about the mythology around one of the most iconic holiday plants - Mistletoe! Where do you think all those kissing traditions came from? And while the pandemic is probably bringing that little tradition to a halt this year - let's still chat about it!
Recorded and Edited by Meghan Pavlovsky and Allison Varca. Music Credits to Michael Vontas.
