Patreon Dispatches from the Curiosity Shop 34: Decorative Gourd Season, Bitches!
It’s officially spooky season, and we’ve got yer pumpkin bread, yer crescent moon wreaths, a whole handful of yer chicken wire ghosts, and yer obligatory spice-scented spooky crafts. It’s a pre-Halloween party, and you’re obviously invited!
Programming note: We were in no condition to count when we recorded this episode, so we said 35 when we really meant 34. You can blame the Xanax and cold brew.
