Hello! On today's shivery little episode, Max is telling a story of an Icelandic spite-haunting, and Janey is telling us a cautionary tale about why it's always better to just do your damn chores the first time you're asked. Also, we won't be here next week, as we're taking a much needed week off! Enjoy!
