E425 Our Pancake Era and Cosmic Sleep Mysteries

Welcome to Zesty Zeptember! It's officially fall, as far as we're concerned and we've got some spooky scandals to knock your witchy socks off. We love how many anonymous submissions we got about everything from supernaturally finding out about secret family members to government conspiracies that are so juicy you may want to listen to the episode quickly in case it mysteriously disappears. If our Instagrams go dark in the next couple days, it was because of this episode... and that's why we drink! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In lieu of a cursed livestream we're bringing you our second annual poetry slam as a special bonus episode! This year we're diving into the realm of Squonk self love and Sasquatch affirmations. Mothwoman walks onto the scene (at the bridge) as well as a new lemon-themed cryptid. There's talk of America's Hircine Shifter and Emothy, King of the Pukwudgies makes a special and dangerous woodland appearance. As expected there is also some thirst for Mothman yet again. Snaps for everyone who submitted. Snaps for everyone who donated auction items and bid on all the incredible, creepy offerings. We love you all! Thank you so much for your patience and understanding while we had health and tech issues. You heard it all straight from the mongoose's mouth... and that's why we VANISH!

Welcome to Armchair August! We're surprising Em with the theme they demanded and then forgot about. They got a little tangled in their own puppet strings but don't worry, Em's just the puppet master and really the puppets are playing Em. And we were blown away by all of your armchair stories! We hear from folks who saw faceless men who froze to death glaring from their Lay-Z-Boy, had their sheets caught in an armchair full of ghostly withered arms, had yearly lucid dreams of embroidered armchairs and dangerous scarecrow men on Halloween, and even had their lives saved by an outdoor rocking armchair! Should we keep it going with Ottoman Autumn? ...and that's why we drink!
