Happy February! We've got DJ Love and DJ Cupid in the house... but we rewound live radio so we're actually not sure those are the final names we're going with. This month we've got quite the smorgasbord of mind-bending tales, some involving love, some obsession, maybe even a little Bigfoot spoken word poetry in the mix. Definitely make sure you listen to the very end for an especially mind-blowing story. We'll give you a hint, it involves Zak Bagans! It was just a real dealer's choice this month and Eva was the dealer. Our main takeaways are: A love emergency is still an emergency and also we might have rashes on our souls... and that's why we drink!

We decided to scale down our manifesting this year and just focus on food... remember when we learned the history of the word "quarantine" mere weeks before the epidemic hit. Yikes!

We've got an equal split of wild paranormal stories and true crime connections, like the truth behind who spotted Richard Speck's notorious tattoo that led to his capture. We also hear from a listener who was cursed by our listeners episode about curses caused by the podcast.
