A Weather-Filled Musicapalooza!

We’re storming your ears with a playlist about weather!

A lot of stuff here to enjoy so give it a listen and share with your friends!

Episode #207 – An American Werewolf in London

GUEST CHOICE! This week we’re joined by special guest Mari Provencher to talk about the John Landis classic – An American Werewolf in London. The movie is a podcast favorite, and we spend the entire episode praising its wonderfully dark comedy and asking ourselves important questions like, “what’s the deal with that nurse and her taste in men?”
