In this episode, we talk with author Nancy Churnin about her latest book, Lila and the Jack O'Lantern: Halloween Comes to America. This book is not only a sweet story about an immigrant family but also tells the story of the origins of some of our Halloween traditions. Nancy's book can be ordered here.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
