Today we’re digging into our cauldron of chaos and re-airing one of our all-time favorite episodes—because apparently history is just bonkers enough to deserve a second listen. Familiars, black cats, pointy hats, and penises in boxes (yes, really), all swirl together in the magical fever dream that is the legacy of the witch. The old world was absolutely unwell—accusing people of signing deals with the devil, shapeshifting into animals, and stealing men’s junk and hiding it like Pokémon cards. Buckle up as we dive broom-first into The Connecticut Witch Trials—because Salem wasn’t the only place people were losing their minds.
