To our listeners: We know you've been waiting for new episodes for a bit now, and we truly appreciate your patience! So, we wanted to record a special update about the reasons behind the St. Mary's hiatus with info on when we'll be back with new episodes for season 2, as well as a Q&A session about the making of and inspiration behind the show with writer & creator Samantha Macher and producer, editor, and voice of Florence, Laura Hunter Drago.

Season one finale. Inez and some unexpected guests make their way through Florence's vision to uncover the answers they've been looking for, while Florence works to get her wish of reuniting with Timothy.  Thank you for listening to our first season, we'll be back for SEASON TWO soon. We'd really appreciate you clicking the support link to help us make our second season even better than the first.  Created and written by Samantha Macher  Produced & Edited by Laura Hunter Drago through New Girl Pictures LLC The characters are voiced by:  Laura Hunter Drago (Florence) Lexington Vanderberg (Inez) Emma A. Gould (Katrina) Bianca Nkwonta (Marjory) Ginger T.
