Love the show!

I’ve only been aware of this show for about a month and I’ve already listened to all but seven episodes. I’ve really enjoyed all of the content. I was born and raised in Missouri but now I move around a lot due to my husbands job. It’s really nice to have a piece of home with me wherever I go. Especially a spooky piece of home! I’m not sure what’s happened with the show but I hope these two are back soon!
