We are so excited to share this episode. Shayla and Payton asked their listeners to submit their spooky stories to be shared for a Halloween themed episode. We received a plethora of different experiences from ghosts to leprechauns. Payton and Shayla first share a few spooky stories of their own and Payton talks about a recent “on theme” TV series he just watch about the European and American witch trials and how even after 500 years he could draw parallels with how people react to hysteria today. A great reminder that we should always try to learn from the past.
