38. Christmas Legends and Claudine Longet

Kat is a hoe hoe hoe for the holidays and teaches the legends behind all of your favorite Christmas creatures. You SHOULD fear. Belsnickel is here.

37. Megan Thee Stallion and Spongebob

Listen up hotties, this week Hayley teaches a lesson on Megan Thee Stallion’s rise to fame. Meg is a rapper, absolutely NOT a “rappist,” much like her friend “Missy Thee Elliott.” One hour later, grab your bucket and your mop so Kat can tell you about Stephen Hillenburg and his best-known creation: SpongeBob SquarePants. This episode is brought to you by an entire fifth of vodka- so buckle up. This episode is sponsored by Ralphie and Alice. For 15% off your order, visit ralphieandalice.com and e...

36. White House Pets and Baby Boxes

Kat is a list bitch once again and teaches a lesson on the more interesting White House pets. Sunny and Bo are cute and all, but they’re no Emily Spinach the snake. Then, Hayley begins her lesson by defining “infanticide” and “neonatalcide,” and makes everyone sad by describing the custom of abandoning babies in “baby boxes.” We added in a trigger warning, because- duh.

35. Child Chimney Sweeps and The Winchester Mystery House

Hide your wine, hide your cheese! Hayley teaches a lesson on the Great Fire of London and the subsequent atrocity of child chimney sweeps.

34. Hair Wreaths and Bullet Journaling

Kat gives Hayley and Alec homemade “gifts” before launching into a lesson on Victorian era hair wreaths and mourning rituals. Victorians were not just a little-sticious, they were A LOT-sticious. Next, Hayley covers the liger of note-taking: bullet journals, and the man who created them, Bullety McJournaly, no- Buletini Journalani.. Or was it really just Ryder Carroll?

31. Jediism and Vodka

This week we talk Star Wars- ever heard of it? Hayley takes us to a galaxy far far away in 2001, and covers the religion of Jediism. Next, Kat receives a package from daddy.. It’s a bottle of vodka! And teaches a lesson on vodka, or as we like to call it- “second water.” We are unsure if vodka was invented in Russia or Portland, the history is a little murky- just as a vodka night should be.

30. Magic Resistance and The Salem Witch Trials

Kat is a witch bitch for sure and teaches a lesson on the Magic Resistance- the coalition of witches dedicated to taking down Donald Trump with a curse! Though one could argue Trump has already been cursed with a body (and face) that looks like Mr. Krabs without his shell. To perform this curse you will need something that encapsulates the essence of Trump, like an orange candle- though we recommend a petri dish of orange mold. Then, turn your ears on and your mouth down to zero while Hayley cov...

28. The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb and Birthdays

Kat presents the curse of King Tut’s tomb and his controversh daddy! There definitely was a curse unless you’re a wet blanket who hates fun. Next, Hayley starts the party back in Egypt once again and teaches the history of Birthdays. You know work went into this research because she read the damn Bible AND researchgate.net.

27. The McMartin Preschool Trial and Lisa Frank

In this episode, Hayley exposes Satan for what he really is- a plagiarizer! Then, dives deep into the McMartin Preschool trials and all the satanic-panic-serial-killer realness that precluded it. Did serial killers love the 70s or did the 70s just love serial killers?! Next, Kat spills rainbow-colored tea all over queen of the 90s, Lisa Frank, and the love triangle between Lisa, Proud Girl Rhonda, and the human equivalent to a pile of cocaine, gas station porn, and boner pills. This episode is s...

Is mercury in retrograde or did the school year just start??! This week, Hayley talks astrology, which may or may not be real science- according to Neil Degrassi. Wasn’t Drake on that show?

There is one way to make it worse though- which is by plucking out all your leg hair. This episode is sponsored by BYLD Bar and Ethyl Ambrosia. For 10% off your first order o...

No seriously. Asking for a friend! This episode is sponsored b...

24. NXIVM and Tesla vs. Edison

Kat tells the story of the NXIVM sex-cult and Mole from Atlantas’ doppelganger: Keith Raniere. Either one man’s mole is another man’s Brad Pitt, or Rainiere was a seriously manipulative sociopath (hint: it’s the latter). Next, Hayley comes in like a lightning bolt and teaches about Nicola Tesla and his petty ass beef with Thomas Edison over AC vs DC power. Edison just needed to stop trying to make DC happen. It’s NOT going to happen. This episode is sponsored by BYLD Bar and Ethyl Ambrosia. For ...
