  • My daughter and I listen together!

    I have a 13 year old daughter and you know how mother/teenage daughter relationships can be…. Well, anytime we are in the car together she asks to listen to this podcast. She loves spooky stuff so this is right up her alley. We listen together and both love it! Thanks for giving me a tool that makes these teenage years a bit easier :)

    We also love your voice, it’s very calming
