In this episode, we celebrate our annual Besties Trip! We're going to Maine, everybody! In preparation for the trip, Abby discusses the Wood Island Lighthouse's real life horrifying terrors and rumored paranormal events and secrets. She tops it off with a wholesome story about a dog we don't deserve. Then, Ellie drags (it's an aviation joke, do you get it?) the mood down by talking about some horrifying plane crashes (right before we get onto our flight to Maine, but go off, queen) caused by hubris and not following Aviation Rules, which we assume is a real thing and not something we just made up for the description.
