Welcome back to So My Wife’s a Witch: A Bewitched Deep Dive Podcast! This week, Nathan and Madison make like an Olympic diver and dive on into the seventh episode of Bewitched. In this episode, Darrin’s new client, Mr Brinkman, wants a very specific type of advertising campaign for his Halloween candy. Samantha, meanwhile, entertains two guests who just so happen to be fellow witchkind. They discuss the offensive way witches are depicted during Halloween when Aunt Clara arrives, bringing chaos and hijinks wherever she goes! Samantha and the group request Darrin’s help to rebrand witchkind, but when Mr Brinkman refuses to go with Darrin’s more sophisticated take on the campaign, the witches decide to go on strike! Will Mr Brinkman change his mind before he faces a French firing squad? You will just have to find out! Stick around after the episode when Nathan takes us on a flying broom ride through the life of the incomparable Marion Lorne.
