Since we have 4 more years of yelling into the abyss, we're assuming you won't mind if we go ahead and take the first 30 minutes to do a mental health check in before diving into an incredibly thorough DYSBT google doc. As much as we want to be all peepee, poopoo, hehe, haha- as people, we're not ready yet and we know some of you aren't yet either. So let's sit in those feelings for just a little bit and then let's listen to the out of context quotes that somehow didn't cancel us before today. Shoutout to our listener M (I actually don't know if I can share your name so lmk and I'll update it lol) for procrastinating on their paper and allowing us to rot for today's episode.

Regardless of when you listen, the day this episode goes live is election day and it isn't just any election day. Today is a day that could go down in history as the first time that the United States of America elect a woman into its highest office in the land. As we know, she isn't the first woman to run for president, but I think what might shock some of us is learning exactly when the first female was nominated to run for President of the United states. Would your shock reach new levels to know that it was during a time when she couldn't even vote herself? We're sharing the incredible herstory of Victoria Woodhull, the first female to run for president of the united states in the 1850's. You read that right - almost 200 years ago and we're still out here wait for that first Madam. Whether it is made today or another 200 years from now, history is happening and it is SO important to make your voice known. Make a plan and get out and VOTE!

On this exact day, 5 years ago, we nervously hit launch on an episode titled "Oh yeah, Martha? You're a freaking witch - The Salem Witch Trials," and our lives were changed forever. We always said that we would continue the podcast as long as it brought us joy, but we certainly didn't know just how much joy it would bring us. For half a decade, this hobby turned job turned passion has brought us across the country in front of thousands of our friends. It was given us opportunities to see and do things that we couldn't have ever even dreamed possible. We're forever grateful to the two nervous ladies who sat in their comfy pants one fall evening and hit record. We're grateful they hit upload and that they continued to show up week after week for themselves and now for you. You guessed it- those ladies were us. Now those ladies are struggling to continue talking in the third person, so to close out, we want to say THANK YOU. Thank you for the most incredibly fulfilling life. Thank you for the encouragement and the support, the grace and the love. Thank you for the friendship with and without interaction. As much as this is an opportunity to celebrate how far we've come, we hope you all will take moment to reflect on your own journey. Celebrate the growth and changes that you've made. Celebrate the parts of you that got you here as much as the parts you put to rest along the way. We're so proud of you. This anniversary is as much for you as it is for us, CHEERS TO 5 YEARS!

Playlist of the Dead: An All-Star Halloween Special

Six Strangers. One Cursed Playlist. Ultimate Power—or Certain Death.

Drawn by a mysterious letter promising the power to control an army of the dead, six strangers arrive at a hidden location with a single task: survive a binge-listening session unlike any other. Their key to unlocking this dark magic? The Necronomicon iPod, a macabre piece of technology loaded with a supernatural podcast playlist.

Meet the crew: a die-hard podcast fan, a cat dad with a quirky side, a skeptical ghost hunter, a spiritual healer, an unreliable flake, and a professional entertainer with a flair for the dramatic. Together, they must endure each eerie episode—but as secrets are revealed and tensions rise, not everyone is guaranteed to make it out alive.

This one-of-a-kind horror-comedy event features exclusive segments from fan-favorite podcasts: And That's Why We Drink, Two Girls One Ghost, Creeps and Crimes, Ladies & Tangents, and Live, Laugh, Larceny.

Will they unlock the power of the undead—or will the cursed playlist claim their souls first? Tune in to this all-star podcast holiday event for a supernatural audio adventure like no other!

If you’ve ever considered making an episode a drinking game, let it be this one. We made it easy by spontaneously going down an astrology wormhole and repeatedly said the word astrocartography. We said it so much that it doesn’t feel like a real word. It also may not be a real word according to the red squiggly line that’s currently under it. Once we finished flirting with our AI spiritual guide, we cracked open a new game called Tell Me Without Telling Me and did our best to try to make cards that were labeled NSFW, SFW. Spoiler alert, we failed. It was still very much NSFW.

We can't confirm, but we may have set a new record with this episode. Our first full week home after tour proved to be full of life, laughter and October lagers and because of that, it took us approximately 60 minutes to get to the actual topic of this episode. We may be biased, but the first 60 are definitely worth the listen, so if you're a "skip ahead to the point" kind of listener...well, in the words of our pop princess Sabrina Carpenter, "just don't."

We know that you come to us for important, meaningful, deep, thoughtful conversations and so when we sat down on the couch this week, we vowed to bring you just that. Lol opposite day- we're taking Buzzfeed quizzes to find out what kind of soup we are.

We have somehow found ourselves as the honorary weird history retellers and today's tale couldn't be weirder. Seriously, this tale includes tails and they're six feet tall and exploding into the sky. You have questions? So do we. I can't promise we'll answer them all but what I can promise is that no living whales were harmed in the making of this episode.

After being lowkey bullied on tour during meet and greets about taking a break, we succumbed to peer pressure and did not record a new episode for this week. We are unable to fully skip, so our compromise is piecing together patreon episodes from this year for you to enjoy. Shit gets weird after dark...

Truly thank you for being so supportive and thoughtful. You never let us forget that we're humans who deserve rest and we don't take that for granted. Our mental and familial health are so grateful for you!
