51 | Grace Sherwood, the Virginia Witch

This week, MM brings us the tale of the only convicted witch in Virginia, Grace Sherwood, because spooky season is forever.

But first, join us for millennial aunt advice corner, in which Katy espouses you should know thyself... and if you're not an entrepreneur. "A boner for land" is not a phrase we'd thought we'd ever say, but here we are. MM annuls our friendship yet again. Our arms are weak and our brains are smooth.

(This was recorded before 2021 election results came in for both Virginia and Washington. Laugh at the hope in our voices. :|)
