Baba Yaga & Other Hags! With Mona Hillis.
Will and Madryn head into the woods of Baba Yaga and other Hags! We study the haggardly history of this epic unrestrained feminist icon. Master of destiny, or Slavic sociopath? Terrifying trio, or the solo solution to life’s deepest problems? Time will tell. These old crones also make many appearances in pop culture, jumping through Shakespearian seances, witchy TV, family fare, and endless role playing campaigns. Finally, we’re joined by Svetlana (Mona Hillis) who tells us about her incredible house, her lizard beer, dream riding, travel times, and respectful hag terminology. Have A Great Summer!

You Should Have Messy Kids
Will and Ali turn a throw-away compliment about their “cozy” home into a full-blown debate over whether a rug, guest towels, and a shower curtain count as redecorating. The banter ricochets from Will’s “Team Shorty-Short” manifesto, the cutest quotes of the week, crowd-sourced logo ideas for the budding King Family brand, and a surprisingly heartfelt link between software design, time management, and why you should have messy children. The result is peak Will-and-Ali chaos with equal parts roast, reality check, and relational gold.---------Website: https://www.wking.devNewsletter: https://www.wking.dev/newsle...
