Spooooooky! Rising from the Great Beyond (aka real life stuff taking over and pushing podcasting by the wayside), it's Courtney and Sasha with a life update/spooky things that have happened/general chat. Sorry we were away so long! We both had a LOT happen that made podcasting a bit unfeasible.

Note: This episode was recorded at the end of February before Courtney's health started acting up again. (I'm largely fine, but it does negatively impact my ability to do stuff.) There is a heads up about this at the start in lower audio quality than the bulk of the episode.

Content heads up:
Baby/birth trauma and medical talk: 5:46-13:17 (medical, NICU, etc)

Medical/surgical talk, mental health issues: 13:48-23:15

Hi Spoopingtons! Sorry for the delay in updating you on what's going on (oop). Enjoy a brief check-in from Courtney about where we've been and what's coming next (all good news, we promise)! Happy holidays, and we hope to be speaking to you in the new year!

In this enthralling minisode, we talk what flavor baby Sasha is having, some toe-based horror, snacks, and spooky things about Venice, Italy. Plus a listener story about a scary thing a child said and a chewed up hammock. CW/TW: Some mild body horror/toe mentions from about 10 minutes until 14:45.

This week, we've got a very special, formerly top-secret announcement from Sasha that determines the course of the WHOLE EPISODE. We also have a game, talk changelings, hear tales of spooky things heard through certain devices, and  more. Grab your iron scissors and get ready!

It's a spooperstitious episode this week as we take a look at common superstitions! We recap Sasha's appliance gremlins & Courtney's Disaster Friday, then take a look at walking under ladders, stepping on cracks, breaking mirrors, and more to find out what makes them unlucky. Then we make up some new superstitions for modern times involving the devil and his dirty feet. (CW: there is some discussion of medical issues and related things from about 10 minutes to 22 minutes.)

Spoop Hour isn't dead, just sleeping! We're taking a month (ish) long hiatus so Courtney and Sasha can recharge their batteries. This is the official announcement of said hi-boo-rnation because we didn't want to catch anyone off-guard. Much love and we'll talk to you soon!

We're talking holiday thingies this week, like the convoluted reason we kiss under mistletoe, three winter celebrations that aren't Christmas, and why we leave cookies and milk out for Santa. Plus the festive game Lo, Saturnalia and a listener story about a maybe-haunted baby. (Sorry the ep is late! Courtney was afflicted with a terrible malaise and had to retire to her fainting couch until her ill-humors cleared. This meant she put off editing. )

What would you do if you were Spiderman? Can you will garlic butter into existence? What is the plural of Krampus? We ask the hard questions this week in a mega-sized minisode! Recap monsters of holidays past, then hear the short story Dark Christmas by Jeanette Winterson.

We're finally answering the question everyone wants to know: Do all psychics hate Sasha? We got a handful of psychic readings off Etsy this week, so hear us talk about our past lives (including one spent on the lost civilization of Atlantis), messages from guardian angels about self-care and saying no, and a friendship reading that answers if we really shouldn't be friends or if those other psychics were just grumps. Plus a listener story about French folk magic and spooky things kids say about their past lives!
