Ever remember capturing something paranormal in a Polaroid picture during a middle school sleepover? Or felt the presence of a loved one even after they have passed away? In this spirited discussion, we live these eerie experiences through the tales of our listeners, reminding us that not all spirits are to be feared. Some are simply here to provide love and solace from the beyond.
As the spookiness subsides, we swap ghost stories for ghoulish fun as we meander down the memory lane, reminiscing about our favorite Halloween costumes and traditions. From debating the merits of Tootsie Rolls to recounting the tale of the escaped murderer with the hook hand, we have got it all. And our Halloween plans? Well, let's just say they involve a little sibling rivalry and some iconic movie characters.
To wrap up this bone-chilling journey, we share our reflections on the Judgment House, a Christian-based haunted house with a twist. We spill the beans on some humorous behind-the-scenes stories, discuss the somewhat controversial use of traumatic events as part of the experience, and even recall a real-life encounter that took us back to our Judgment House days. Brace yourselves, as the journey we are about to embark on isn't just about ghostly encounters, but also about nostalgia, laughter, and the complexity of human experiences.

So we got an email from a galthat says, hey, girls, okay, so
(00:45):
I have one, but it's not, it'slike not scary, it's actually so
cute.
So maybe do this one to beginor end on a sappy note.
Anyways, my Nana and Pop Popbuilt their house when they got
married over 50 years ago, maybe60 at this point.
Well, as my great-grandmothergot older, she moved in with my
Nana and Pop Pop.
She lived to be one month shyof 104.
(01:08):
Oh my gosh.
And she died in their house.
After she died, nana, in herusual fashion, knocked down the
wall between the two bedrooms tomake a huge master bedroom and
her usual fashion.
If you knew who this was, youwould understand.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Nana.
We met her one time and went tofive points with her.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Okay, okay, yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Yep, she's amazing, but okay, to make it a huge
master bedroom.
Well, jumped seven years laterand Pop Pop passed away in the
same room.
After his passing, andliterally still to this day, the
two ceiling fans in the bedroomwill blink, flash their lights
nonstop whenever my mom, mysister or I come to visit.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Oh my gosh, it's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
But when we talk to him or our great-grandmother in
the room, they come up.
We have video proof of usasking Pop Pop if he loved us
and he flicks the light.
Stop it.
Ben has experienced or Ishouldn't say his name Ben has
experienced it too.
Haha, Just a gentle reminderthat not all spirits are out
there to get us, and some arejust there to say hello and
remind us that they love us andcontinue to have love for us.
(02:13):
It's honestly reassuring toknow they are there with Nana to
this day.
That's so sweet.
I think she said PS still fuckyou for the water bottle
comments.
Meredith.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I will never go back on my word.
Oh my gosh, that was very sweet.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
I know, I know.
I feel like most ghost storiesI've heard of recently have been
that way it's been really justlike people wanting to visit.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, like our friend that saw the medium had a
similar situation with a greatgrandma, so I'd be so interested
to speak with a medium I saw Italked to someone recently that
was like, yeah, I met with thesame medium.
I met with her and like shedidn't have anything to give me,
she said, didn't have enoughtrauma to like go off of, which
was so funny.
(03:02):
She was like, yeah, yourgrandparents are there but they
have nothing to say.
You're boring.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I thought that was so funny.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
That's how I feel about me.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
It's like I not yeah, I don't know if it's trauma,
but I'm like I don't know if I'mlike no unfinished business or
like yeah, like I'm notquestioning.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I don't know anything from anyone that's past.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
I mean, maybe something would come up.
I am interested.
I'm like I know anyone haveanything to say to me?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
that has passed I don't know if I want to know why
you got something you're hiding.
No, I just am like skeletons inthe closet.
I don't.
I just don't know if I want any.
I don't want any that I don'talready know that I have.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah, wouldn't it suck if it goes?
Came to you and was like Iresent the shit, yeah, and
there's nothing you can do aboutit?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah, I don't want that?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yeah, that would suck .
Do ghosts do that?
I guess that's when they wouldjust put your ass.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's when hauntinghappens.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
The origin of haunting.
Oh my gosh.
Okay, I have one.
It's very brief, but it's, it's, it's, I don't know Spooky.
Okay, in middle school I wentto a friend's house for a
sleepover.
We were telling scary stories,seeing who could outspook the
other.
My friend talked about thespirit that lived in their house
(04:21):
and I thought to myself yeah,right until her mom came in
later and took a Polaroidpicture of us.
When it developed, I saw, withmy own two eyeballs, a little
girl sitting in fetal positionon the floor by the bed.
No way.
Needless to say, I did notsleep over.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I asked Is that like a spook camera?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Maybe.
I asked if she had the Polaroidand she said it no way.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I'm like I believe in ghosts, for sure, but I'm like
that feels so obvious, Like thatghost yeah.
I mean, maybe that ghost wasreally just trying to like.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Take a nap.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Or be like yeah, bitch, here I am.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
But now that I'm like , I'm like she was young, Maybe
it was a spooky camera, like atrick.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
I know, but I'm like at a little girl's sleepover.
That's the way you get all yourfriends to not end up spending
the night.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, is to play a ghost trick on them.
Maybe the mom was like I'm notdoing this.
I said yes, so sleepover, butI'm not doing this.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
The mom had it planned all along.
The mom said sure, honey, youcan have a sleepover and I'm
going to scare all your littlefriends until they call their
mommies and their little crybaby asses, go home.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Oh, my God so yeah man man, that would scare me.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I like vividly remember some of the ghost
stories that people would telllike when you're, do you the
only one?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I remember the dog?
Look in the hand.
No, the hook on the door of thecar.
Do you remember that one?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I don't remember.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I think it was like someone was like the papers were
saying, like a man escaped fromI don't know an asylum or a
murderer or something, and thisis all so vague and he had a
hook for a hand.
And these two, a boy and a girl, went to the outlook in their
little car on a date and theyheard a scraping on their door
(06:11):
and then they looked and no onewas there.
But when they got home hedropped the girl off and when he
got out of his car to go homethere was a hook hanging on his
door.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
I know that scared the shit out of me on his little
yeah, mine was the one wherethe daughter was getting spooked
at night, and so her mom boughther a dog so that whenever she
got scared, she could like Idon't even wanna take a break, I
know, I don't wanna get,because I don't wanna scare
people.
I wait till it.
It is Halloween after all, justfast forward like 15 seconds if
(06:42):
you're not into scary stories.
But she like is supposed to puther hand down any time that she
felt scared.
And then she was like the dogwill look your hand and reassure
you that you're good and thenyou can go back to sleep.
And so one day she like kepthearing a drip coming from the
bathroom so she was spooking herout.
So she kept putting her hand on, having the dog lick her hand.
(07:03):
And then the next morning shegot up to go to the bathroom.
I don't even wanna tell it,because it's so creepy, but the
dog was like dead.
And pinned to the ceiling andit's like pinned to the ceiling
and its blood was what wasdripping and it was like the
little killer guy.
And look at the hand I pinnedto the ceiling.
(07:25):
Maybe that's wrong, but I justremember there like the dripping
noise was the dog's pull,that's like that messed up.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
I don't like that.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Someone told me that I sleep over.
Speaker 2 (07:36):

with you, but you ditched me, soI don't know now.

strapped her.
Bianca strapped her.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I've heard 10 things I hate about you which would
have been so cute.
But I get it.
Meredith didn't wanna be catbecause she didn't wanna have to
wear her cargo pants.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Well, it's not just that.
It's like I don't have the longhair, I don't have a wife
beater, I just have the cargopants.

One of the things I'm most selfconscious about is not self
conscious, but like as a mom islike I don't have the energy to
homemade my kids.
Halloween costume and birthdayparties and birthday parties and
I always thought I would havethe like wherewithal and
excitement to do those things,because mom always did and I now

friend one year.
She was my friend that alsodropped me on her back porch
with her dog, my I need a goodlike nickname for her because

That was her move, she liked to trap.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
You forced me to change my shirt with her before
we went back out.

I was like sixth grade and Iwas like, oh my gosh, I am
killing this.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
There's nothing like throwing together a little
Halloween costume.
Whenever I was in like schoolabroad with one of my best
friends, we took it uponourselves to dress up for every
single party.
We had a monthly party for ourschool and it always had a theme
.
But like the themes, were notdress up.
(16:58):
I mean the first one was.
The first one was a pee party,so we dressed up as parents and
her she was like the dad and Iwas the mom and we like got a
bunch of baby dolls from thelocal.
There was like a nursery oncampus or whatever, and we like
got all the baby dolls and likehad seven kids with us and then
every party after that.
We're like we're just going todress up for every single one,
(17:20):
but no one else did.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
No one else did, so we had a.

Christmas party, where her and I dressed up as
like old ladies and Christmassweaters.
Speaker 2 (17:26):

And then for Halloween, I meanfor Valentine's Day, we dressed
up as cupids and we like tapeddiapers around ourselves and
made little arrows.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
That's so fun.
I know.
When I was my year abroad, wedid every Friday was dress up
day and, like people, there wasone girl that, just like, was
self appointed, like I'mdeciding what it's going to be.
You can put on your votes ifyou'd like, and I'm going to

You'll find out on Wednesdaynight what the theme is and on
Friday we all show up to classdressed up.
And it was so fun.

this ginormous Halloween partyin her historic home and each
room would have like a differenttheme.
Speaker 2 (18:43):

Speaker 1 (18:44):
She would go above and beyond.
There'd be a scary movieplaying in the back on like a
giant projector.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
That's so fun.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
And everyone dressed up.
It was like one of thoseparties that you go to like out
of freaking hocus-pocus.

What was the process?
Speaker 2 (20:59):
of writing the book.
Can you write me?
Speaker 1 (21:02):
a forward about how you got all of this information
and, like I don't know it alljust feels so spooky.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Yes, it does.
I know I do want.
I'm like how long have you beenworking on this?
I would love to have been thefly on the wall when she's like
talking to her ghost writer, Iknow.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I mean, it gives me like Evelyn Hugo, because it's?
Speaker 2 (21:27):
I mean not, I'm like not wanting to be insensitive,
but I'm like, are you able totell a story that's like like
not coherent, but like are you?
Are you like recalling things Idon't know?
I'm like, what is her mentalstate?
Speaker 1 (21:44):
We don't know.
I mean, I don't think any of usactually know.
I know, but I'm like we don'treally have the right to know.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I know.
But also when you're puttingthe book.
How do we?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
yeah, how do we like?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
decipher this book.
I don't know.
I have no idea.
I mean, I'd love to trust thatJustin Timberlake's Pee-Pee is
tiny.
I know that would be amazing.
It's like you left in sync.
I know.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
With your tiny little pee-pee and went out there and
did it on your own.
And now you're doing the fullsoundtrack.
Yeah, I mean not to say that hedidn't have some banger.
He did.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
But I like he made, he did, did some didn't know
this, but apparently I mean I'mlike finding this out now, but
apparently it was.
It's been like his reputationthat he's like well endowed.
No way, Like through interviewsand stuff, People have like
insinuated I don't know, Likethere's that one.
We need to know the truth.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Does he well endowed or is he not?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
I know, is it all over compensation.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Also also none of our business.
I know another thing.
That's none of our business,but Brittany was with him.
How old were they?
Speaker 2 (22:52):
I mean, they were like they were teenagers.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
He'd gone through puberty.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Oh, for sure.
I mean they were having sex,yeah, Anyway.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
I need to know the truth, but I also have no right
to know the truth I know.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
I know, but you know, wouldn't hurt to have for him
to be brought down a couplenotches.
No.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
No, I mean, I feel like he kind of already has.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
He's doing a troll soundtrack.
Yeah, but I feel like that'slike a good little retirement
situation.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I know I keep hating on it.
It's a good song.
Like work is work, it is a goodsong Money is money.
Money is money, you got it.
Money is a good song.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
You go in, you record a little audio.
I would love to be a voiceactress.
It would be so fun.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
I know it would be.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
It would be very fun Like you go in the booth, you
record, you watch a movie, yougo home you get a check.
That'd be really fun.
I mean, I have no idea how itactually goes.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I looked into it for a minute.
I was like you did.
Well, at what point?
In my depression?
When I lived in Houston.
I was like taking surveys formoney, because I was just like I
need to do something and then Ilooked into like voice acting.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
How do you get into it?
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I don't know if I got that far.
I was very scattered but Ialmost paid for a course.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I almost paid for a lot of courses at that time in
my life.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
No, I could not do it .
I think that's what theconclusion I came to oh, you're
like no.
My voice is not good like foracting purposes.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Interesting.
There's probably more to itthan we think.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, I mean it definitely.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Like most things, most things.
I'm like I could do that, ohman.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Well, well, we went off on a tangent, but I hope
that this has been a lovelyHalloween for you, yeah, and

Yes, for sure Okay.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
All right, all right.
Thanks for listening and wewill see you next.
Emergency emergency meeting.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Okay, after we recorded our last Spooky Season
episode, we realized we got likethe spookiest thing to have
ever happened in our lives.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Which is Judgment House.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
If you are a Southern Baptist, you know what Judgment
House is.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Or if you just like live in the South and have a
friend that's a Southern Baptist.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
That was what we were .
We weren't Southern Baptist, wejust had friends that were Okay
so explain to people who don'tknow what Judgment House is.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
What it is.
So I didn't realize either thatthis was like something that
more than one church did.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, same.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
I thought it was just like this one church.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Random little tiny church off the highway.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Highway and which is when shit goes down, meredith
and I were aspiring actresses,yes, and so we heard that we had
a gig and we said we don't carewhat it is, we'll do it.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
We'll take it.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
We will take it.
So, anyways, judgment House is,in lieu of a Halloween, spooky
Haunted House, you go to achurch where you walk through a
scenario of somebody dying andyou go to hell.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
And then you go to heaven, yes, and then at the end
they ask you which one you wantto go to in real life.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
Yeah, and then there's a middle-aged white man
who's sitting in a closet, whowill ask you to, will tell you
what your.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
What your steps are if you want to get to heaven.
Go to heaven, yeah.
So.
And they get really into these,like it's not just like some
sheets thrown up, and you knowwhat I mean.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Like the one that we were in was like pretty yeah, so
there's like multiple rooms soeach there's like a storyline
that you follow, like guestswill follow as a group.
Each room will be a differentscene of the story so like I was
cast as a sister of the maincharacter in like the first
(27:48):
scene and then the next room yougo to it'll be different actors
but like same characters.
So you're like following.
They're wanting to get as manypeople in there as possible to
meet their fate and decide whatthey're doing with their lives.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
So, and the one that we were in, yeah, you're
following, like.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
Anyway, different actors, same character.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
So, yes, and you're walking through some of these
death.
Yes, so in the one that we werein, a guy I think got in a
drunk driving accident.
Yes, a teenager.
So Meredith was the sister tothe drunk driver.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
So I was an angel.
I think I was in like secondgrade, third grade.
I was an angel and it was justlike me and my friend and we
were the only angels in heavenand we sat at the feet of Jesus,
who was like a middle-aged manthat went to the church.
I think he was like abasketball coach for the church
(28:43):
basketball team or something.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Real small church and so Slumpickans as to why they
had to get random-ass kids meand Caroline.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Who did not go to that church, to be part of the
play.
So we're heaven was like thisbig room.
There were some.
I said that it wasn't justsheets thrown up, but that room
was like lots of white sheetsthrown up and lots of like
candles, battery operatedcandles, jesus in a white robe,
(29:12):
angels in like a little white.
There was a stage.
He was on a stage and we werelike at his feet and there was
like a pathway to Jesus.
And before we're waiting on thenext group of people to come
into our room, my friend acrossfrom me think, just think it's
just me and this girl who's likea year younger than me or
(29:35):
something, and Jesus aka thebasketball coach, and my friend
lets out like rips, one thatlike reeks of eggs, and so she's
two and at the feet of Jesusand we're in the third grade, so
(29:55):
we can't get our shit together.
We're just like dying, likerolling, laughing.
Jesus is like giving us thedeath.
Stare to like cut it outbecause people are like walking
in the room and we laughed,slash, gagged through an entire
scene of people trying to likesee this boy come and meet Jesus
(30:16):
and it just smelled like eggs.
That is so good.
But then you went through it.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Yeah, oh yeah, I went through it.
I don't know.
I guess I was.
They gave me a break orsomething but I went through it
Child actor, spouse.
They ask a series of questionsat the end that, in your eyes,
are closed and it's all aboutlike whether or not you know
Jesus, and I raised my handbecause I didn't know what was
going on and I guess I missedher a question.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
And I went in the room with the breeze.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Yes, last thing I know.
Next thing I know I'm in acloset, like I said, with a
millage man and he's asking medo you know, jesus Christ?
Wait is not safe.
Sanctuary, no, not safesanctuary.
If anyone has ever been in ayouth group past 2002, safe
sanctuary is very important andthis was pre-2002.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
It was put in place to protect priests being alone
in a room with children.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Yes, yes, so anyway, I'm at, so you go from the start
.
Contrast of like you're inheaven with two little angels
and Jesus.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
And then you're in like a fricking mid-century or
like 80s closet with a guy andyou're like, wait, is this?
Speaker 2 (31:34):
hell.
Yeah, yeah, it's like wait aminute.
So I he's asking me questionsand I'm like wait, yes, I know
Jesus, and he's like heliterally goes oh, you're good,
you can go.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Thank God, it could have gone another way.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Oh I know, but I was as a middle schooler.
I was like what, I think.
Even at that time I was likewait, what are we doing here?
What other way could have?
What would have happened if Isaid I didn't know Jesus Like
what?
Speaker 1 (32:05):
would.
He would have read you a listof questions and then made you
copy what he was saying and thenbeen like all right, you're
going to heaven.
At the end of the day he's likeall right, you can go.
And then he tally, does ittally on his notebook and is
like, well, we saved another one.
Yeah, I think that was it We'vedone our job.
How is it?
Judgment house saved, but whoknows how many people it's
scared into heaven or hell.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
No one wanted to go to hell.
That hell was scary.
So anyway, speaking of judgmenthouse, the reason we had an
emergency meeting is because wehad a real life conversation
with someone who reminded us ofjudgment house?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Who?
Speaker 2 (32:38):
reminded us of judgment house and her
experience.
She grew up in a fundamentalistBaptist church which is like,
if you know anything about theBaptist church, it's the most I
don't know like there's Baptistand there's Southern Baptist and
then there's fundamentalBaptist.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
And fundamental.
I think they're like the onedoesn't that mean that?
They, they're the most extremeand they believe like every
single word Of the Bible to belike true in this day and age,
or something which I don't know,where stoning comes in oh.
Or like.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
I don't know that I could be wrong once again,
ignorance.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
I have no idea.
I think I think prior to thisepisode.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
But this story will clue us in.
So she was telling us about herjust judgment house experience
and she Was saying that thefirst year she did it, the death
, the cause.
There's always a cause of death.
It's always the same scenario.
It's like this cause of deathit's always teens, it's always
teens cause of death.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Well, I don't know, because you go to heaven.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
But she was saying, the one year was like so Choked
on a hamburger, and that was thecause of death, and then the
next year.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
I think what must have happened is that it like
went so well.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
They're like we gotta up.
We gotta up the ante.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Yes, we need to like make it bigger, better, as big
churches do.
They're like bring out thesmoke machines, baby yeah, so.
And then the heaters in thisand the heaters in this case.
So then they had a trifectadeath.
Yeah where it was like youcould shoot, was it?
You went through all.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
I don't think it Was choose your scenario.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
I think it was like everyone experienced three
different how traumatic that isso much scarier than a haunted
house.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Oh, so why three?
Tell us what they were.
So the first one was a gangshooting, a drive-by shooting.
The second one, God was whatwas the second one?
Speaker 1 (34:32):
the second one was a.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
School shooting school, a Columbine shooting
where, like people, wereliterally running like.
The guests were running.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
That's what she said.
Like everyone had to likeescape the school shooting.
I hate what is wrong with thesepeople, like who would do this
to somebody I don't know.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
And it feels like making a light?
I don't yeah, it's problematicon many levels.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
But then the last one , which is just as problematic
as the rest there you're allsitting in an airplane and it
was 9-11, so you're like havingto choose on this Hell heaven or
yeah, so then you die and yougo to hell.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
And then she was saying, and hurt the hell, she
was a hellion because theyweren't allowed to be demons.
Which, what is the difference?
Nothing, and they had the heatcranked up so high that the
bottom of her converse shootsneakers melted, melted and she
said she was strategicallybringing starbursts in her
pocket so they'd be melty andgooey.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
She also said that she had making the most of the
situation.
Also said that she had toscream at people that were in
there like you still have achance.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah, you still have a chance as an actor being
really envious of the peoplethat got to be in hell, because
it felt like the most realacting experience the most, the
doing the most and the most Igot out of my experience was a
really crappy boyfriend.
My brother, my cast brother,became my boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Oh yeah, was he the guy that died.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
No, well, his character was that's when I not
get to act the part because he,we were just in the first scene.
That was.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Shoot sorry.
Yeah, yeah and I didn't realizey'all met in a house other.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Boyfriend for a minute, we can we'll come back
to that because that was a weirdass boyfriend for a minute.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Yeah, judgment at a judge.
And house.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
You can only imagine it did not.
It was weird, as weird as itbegan.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Yep, man man, but anyway anyway judgment house,
are they still doing it?
Speaker 2 (36:45):
That's a great question.
Oh, look them up.
Do you have your phone?
Speaker 1 (36:49):
I don't.
Are there any in the area?
Speaker 2 (36:51):
tomorrow's Halloween.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
I mean walkers on it.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
They can't still be a thing.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
I feel like people would like Call people out now.
Yeah, this was back in the day.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
Yeah, and like worse than haunted houses and that
like People believed that thatwas real.
So they're like we're gonnascare the shit out of you, for
real.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
That's.
What I mean is that this islike Really traumatic and way
scarier than a haunted house,because you're literally like oh
, you want to be scared onHalloween?
Try.
You want to go to hell?
Speaker 2 (37:28):
Make your choice judgment house comm is a thing
and rock hill.
Speaker 1 (37:38):

He do it that it really is thespookiest thing I've ever
experienced in the vault of mychildhood.
Yeah, I like totally forgot it.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
It was a big moment.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
I mean we did.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
It was like an it was like one of our first Night of
the week situation like we wentevery night of the week.
Not to our church, totally,totally different church.
Our mom was just like Sure showbiz baby.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
Our mom also was like church Sure, no show biz.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Yes, honestly, most parents are like church, sure
yeah but you know you get thedouble.
Speaker 2 (38:34):
When it's church and show biz, you say yes, can't go
wrong.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
I had to be a janitor in a church play in high school
and my boyfriend came to see it.
I was in the ninth grade,Mm-hmm and I was so embarrassed
because I was, like, dressed sougly.
Mm-hmm then I almost threw up.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
No beforehand.
Oh my gosh, I know you almostthrew up.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
I was like having a panic attack that he was gonna
see me with this stuffed overallsuit and I Don't think I had a
beard, I think I Don't remembereven what the play was about.
Speaker 2 (39:09):
Why are you a janitor ?
Speaker 1 (39:11):
I could not tell you what the play was about our
church has some good plays.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Growing up it did.
Man wow Right.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
Wow, show biz babe.
Okay, also since be good Walkerjust reminded us we had a
full-on conversation Beforerecording about, yes, our
thoughts, we just, we were justwith us five minutes ago talking
about Justin Timberlake's pee,pee, and it's been a week since
(39:42):
we recorded that and we're justadding this on.
Yeah, so we have additionalthoughts.
We thought we would add.
What were they other than that?
Speaker 2 (39:50):
It would suck to be Justin Timberlake right now,
because you're just living yourlife raking in the royalties,
got this new gig within sync.
You're like you're married, youhave kids and then your ex.
From 20 years ago, if maybemore.
How many years ago that wasthat your ex from so long ago
writes a book about you andsuddenly you're like thrust back
(40:13):
in the spotlight in the worstway.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
I know that would suck.
It would suck.
I mean, there are some definiteproblematic things happening.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
We went on what side?
Speaker 1 (40:24):
both.
Yes both like she's talkingabout like traumatic experiences
.
Dating him and it was doesn'tsound like it was fun for her
and not a lot of, like I think,issues.
Speaker 2 (40:35):
Absolutely.
That's very true.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
So like I get it, it's a part of her story.
Yes, but like can you?
Speaker 2 (40:43):
imagine being Justin right pee, pee and the.
He's like in the beatboxing.
Like you guys, I'm soembarrassed about all of this
Kids.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
I got old, yeah, but anyway anyway, those were
updated thoughts that you knowthere's, there's two sides of
feelings to all stories.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Yep, Yep they're sure are All right well well, see
you next Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
Happy Halloween.
All right, hello.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Happy Halloween Happy .
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Halloween, we're finally making it through spooky
season.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
This is your shit.
I'm Meredith.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
This is your shit.
I'm Caroline, okay, so okay, Ihave a good story that I want to
share that is not spooky but,romantic, okay, and comforting,
okay, okay.
So we got an email from a galthat says, hey, girls, okay, so
(00:45):
I have one, but it's not, it'slike not scary, it's actually so
cute.
So maybe do this one to beginor end on a sappy note.
Anyways, my Nana and Pop Popbuilt their house when they got
married over 50 years ago, maybe60 at this point.
Well, as my great-grandmothergot older, she moved in with my
Nana and Pop Pop.
She lived to be one month shyof 104.
(01:08):
Oh my gosh.
And she died in their house.
After she died, nana, in herusual fashion, knocked down the
wall between the two bedrooms tomake a huge master bedroom and
her usual fashion.
If you knew who this was, youwould understand.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Nana.
We met her one time and went tofive points with her.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Okay, okay, yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Yep, she's amazing, but okay, to make it a huge
master bedroom.
Well, jumped seven years laterand Pop Pop passed away in the
same room.
After his passing, andliterally still to this day, the
two ceiling fans in the bedroomwill blink, flash their lights
nonstop whenever my mom, mysister or I come to visit.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Oh my gosh, it's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
But when we talk to him or our great-grandmother in
the room, they come up.
We have video proof of usasking Pop Pop if he loved us
and he flicks the light.
Stop it.
Ben has experienced or Ishouldn't say his name Ben has
experienced it too.
Haha, Just a gentle reminderthat not all spirits are out
there to get us, and some arejust there to say hello and
remind us that they love us andcontinue to have love for us.
(02:13):
It's honestly reassuring toknow they are there with Nana to
this day.
That's so sweet.
I think she said PS still fuckyou for the water bottle
comments.
Meredith.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I will never go back on my word.
Oh my gosh, that was very sweet.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
I know, I know.
I feel like most ghost storiesI've heard of recently have been
that way it's been really justlike people wanting to visit.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, like our friend that saw the medium had a
similar situation with a greatgrandma, so I'd be so interested
to speak with a medium I saw Italked to someone recently that
was like, yeah, I met with thesame medium.
I met with her and like shedidn't have anything to give me,
she said, didn't have enoughtrauma to like go off of, which
was so funny.
(03:02):
She was like, yeah, yourgrandparents are there but they
have nothing to say.
You're boring.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I thought that was so funny.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
That's how I feel about me.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
It's like I not yeah, I don't know if it's trauma,
but I'm like I don't know if I'mlike no unfinished business or
like yeah, like I'm notquestioning.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I don't know anything from anyone that's past.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
I mean, maybe something would come up.
I am interested.
I'm like I know anyone haveanything to say to me?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
that has passed I don't know if I want to know why
you got something you're hiding.
No, I just am like skeletons inthe closet.
I don't.
I just don't know if I want any.
I don't want any that I don'talready know that I have.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah, wouldn't it suck if it goes?
Came to you and was like Iresent the shit, yeah, and
there's nothing you can do aboutit?
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah, I don't want that?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yeah, that would suck .
Do ghosts do that?
I guess that's when they wouldjust put your ass.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's when hauntinghappens.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
The origin of haunting.
Oh my gosh.
Okay, I have one.
It's very brief, but it's, it's, it's, I don't know Spooky.
Okay, in middle school I wentto a friend's house for a
sleepover.
We were telling scary stories,seeing who could outspook the
other.
My friend talked about thespirit that lived in their house
(04:21):
and I thought to myself yeah,right until her mom came in
later and took a Polaroidpicture of us.
When it developed, I saw, withmy own two eyeballs, a little
girl sitting in fetal positionon the floor by the bed.
No way.
Needless to say, I did notsleep over.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I asked Is that like a spook camera?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Maybe.
I asked if she had the Polaroidand she said it no way.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
I'm like I believe in ghosts, for sure, but I'm like
that feels so obvious, Like thatghost yeah.
I mean, maybe that ghost wasreally just trying to like.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Take a nap.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Or be like yeah, bitch, here I am.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
But now that I'm like , I'm like she was young, Maybe
it was a spooky camera, like atrick.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
I know, but I'm like at a little girl's sleepover.
That's the way you get all yourfriends to not end up spending
the night.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, is to play a ghost trick on them.
Maybe the mom was like I'm notdoing this.
I said yes, so sleepover, butI'm not doing this.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
The mom had it planned all along.
The mom said sure, honey, youcan have a sleepover and I'm
going to scare all your littlefriends until they call their
mommies and their little crybaby asses, go home.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Oh, my God so yeah man man, that would scare me.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I like vividly remember some of the ghost
stories that people would telllike when you're, do you the
only one?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
I remember the dog?
Look in the hand.
No, the hook on the door of thecar.
Do you remember that one?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I don't remember.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I think it was like someone was like the papers were
saying, like a man escaped fromI don't know an asylum or a
murderer or something, and thisis all so vague and he had a
hook for a hand.
And these two, a boy and a girl, went to the outlook in their
little car on a date and theyheard a scraping on their door
(06:11):
and then they looked and no onewas there.
But when they got home hedropped the girl off and when he
got out of his car to go homethere was a hook hanging on his
door.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
I know that scared the shit out of me on his little
yeah, mine was the one wherethe daughter was getting spooked
at night, and so her mom boughther a dog so that whenever she
got scared, she could like Idon't even wanna take a break, I
know, I don't wanna get,because I don't wanna scare
people.
I wait till it.
It is Halloween after all, justfast forward like 15 seconds if
(06:42):
you're not into scary stories.
But she like is supposed to puther hand down any time that she
felt scared.
And then she was like the dogwill look your hand and reassure
you that you're good and thenyou can go back to sleep.
And so one day she like kepthearing a drip coming from the
bathroom so she was spooking herout.
So she kept putting her hand on, having the dog lick her hand.
(07:03):
And then the next morning shegot up to go to the bathroom.
I don't even wanna tell it,because it's so creepy, but the
dog was like dead.
And pinned to the ceiling andit's like pinned to the ceiling
and its blood was what wasdripping and it was like the
little killer guy.
And look at the hand I pinnedto the ceiling.
(07:25):
Maybe that's wrong, but I justremember there like the dripping
noise was the dog's pull,that's like that messed up.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
I don't like that.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Someone told me that I sleep over.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
I hate that and I never forgot it.
Well, what are you doing tocelebrate Halloween?
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Well, I was gonna dress up in a sister costume
with you, but you ditched me, soI don't know now.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
I know Caroline wanted to be cat and Bianca
strapped her.
Bianca strapped her.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I've heard 10 things I hate about you which would
have been so cute.
But I get it.
Meredith didn't wanna be catbecause she didn't wanna have to
wear her cargo pants.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Well, it's not just that.
It's like I don't have the longhair, I don't have a wife
beater, I just have the cargopants.
I'd be a really lame catstrapped her.

Dressing up as?
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Oh, maybe the hippie.
I dressed your American girl Iwent through a really strong
phase of dressing up with myAmerican girl doll for, like any
for Easter and Halloween andone Halloween Mom would always
buy the American girl dolloutfit and then make the
correspond like.
She wouldn't buy the Americangirl talk girl clothes for me,
(12:34):
she would like make them.
So she like made me a hippieoutfit that like matched the
American girl, girl on.
Speaker 1 (12:40):

I remember that year.
That was a good year.
Speaker 2 (12:43):

I was tinkerbell that year andI was pissed.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
You were.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Yeah, mom made me wear it.
You wouldn't remember that Iwas tinkerbell because I didn't
look like tinkerbell by the endof it, because I had to wear a
stupid turtleneck.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Because it was cold outside.
I remember the pictures, soit's a bummer yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
And then one year I was supposed to be my friend and
I this was when I was reallylittle.
We're tigger and poo and momhomemade this amazing tigger
costume and she told me thatshe's going to make me a springy
tail, which she did.
Make me a very cool springytail out of like a slinky or
spring or something.
But in my head I thought I wasgoing to be able to bounce on it
(13:25):
and I was so disappointed theentire night.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
I remember that it ruined my Halloween.
I'm so sad.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
I'm like man, we really should have tried that on
like weeks before, so I couldhave prepared my mentally
prepared.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Oh, mom also made me.
I think she made your tiggercostume from my tiger costume.
I have my favorite beanie.
Baby was the tiger and she mademe a matching tiger costume.
And she made me a giant.
She made me like a giant T widetag on my tiger suit.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Mom of the year.
I know she was great.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Halloween year costume that was like.
That's like one of my selfconscious.
I'm like.
One of the things I'm most selfconscious about is not self
conscious, but like as a mom islike I don't have the energy to
homemade my kids.
Halloween costume and birthdayparties and birthday parties and
I always thought I would havethe like wherewithal and
excitement to do those things,because mom always did and I now
(14:20):
I'm realizing like wow, thatshe went above and beyond.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
She did.
And birthday party she threw mea bad ass.
Blues clues birthday party.
Yeah, I remember that birthdayparty where we all got little
notebooks handy, in notebookshandy any crayons and we like,
went on a scavenger hunt andfound blues clues.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
I know it was very cute.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
And I am like what can I order off of Amazon in a
giant package?
And not have to think about.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
I know I never thought I'd be that mom,
although I did throw a prettygood birthday party for Kit, her
bug birthday party.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Yeah, that one was pretty good.
Last year was pretty good, butanyway.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
so yeah, too many good Halloween costumes to count
.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
I remember I went to grocery dating with this one
friend one year.
She was my friend that alsodropped me on her back porch
with her dog, my I need a goodlike nickname for her because
she, her and I did a lot ofchildhood things together.
But she we went to her treatingtogether and she was like
running and tripped up a hilland her fake eyelash and like
(15:25):
did she make you give her one ofyours.
We like had to go because herfake eyelash off, she sucked.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Why did you keep hanging out with her?
Speaker 1 (15:34):
I don't know she was.
She had redeeming qualities.
We like had a lot of funtogether, but she also did a lot
of like shady shady yeah likemaking me trade the taco shirt
the hot dog shirt.
We like had these cute littleconcert t-shirts that my mom
once again homemade us for aconcert and she got hot dog,
(15:56):
some juice or barbecue sauce orsomething all over the front of
hers and it trapped me in abathroom stall at the concert.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
That was her move, she liked to trap.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
You forced me to change my shirt with her before
we went back out.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
That was so funny.
When I was in sixth grade, mommade me I was a cat and remember
she like I was like what was I?
I was something.
And mom was like you shouldwear fishnets with that.
And I was like really, and shelike she was like all for my
costume, maybe it was a flapper,I was something that like like
(16:29):
I remember her like letting mebe like a little bit sexy.
I was like sixth grade and Iwas like, oh my gosh, I am
killing this.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
There's nothing like throwing together a little
Halloween costume.
Whenever I was in like schoolabroad with one of my best
friends, we took it uponourselves to dress up for every
single party.
We had a monthly party for ourschool and it always had a theme
.
But like the themes, were notdress up.
(16:58):
I mean the first one was.
The first one was a pee party,so we dressed up as parents and
her she was like the dad and Iwas the mom and we like got a
bunch of baby dolls from thelocal.
There was like a nursery oncampus or whatever, and we like
got all the baby dolls and likehad seven kids with us and then
every party after that.
We're like we're just going todress up for every single one,
(17:20):
but no one else did.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
No one else did, so we had a.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Christmas party, where her and I dressed up as
like old ladies and Christmassweaters.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
And we like stuffed our butts and we had canes and
everything.
And then for Halloween, I meanfor Valentine's Day, we dressed
up as cupids and we like tapeddiapers around ourselves and
made little arrows.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
That's so fun.
I know.
When I was my year abroad, wedid every Friday was dress up
day and, like people, there wasone girl that, just like, was
self appointed, like I'mdeciding what it's going to be.
You can put on your votes ifyou'd like, and I'm going to
decide you'll know.
You'll find out on Wednesdaynight what the theme is and on
Friday we all show up to classdressed up.
And it was so fun.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
I love that I want more opportunities in my life to
know, because every yearHalloween rolls around and I'm
just like figuring out whatSim's going to be and by the
time it's my turn, I'm like Idon't know.
I know Like last year you wereCourtney Love.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Yeah, it's really scary.
I didn't look like I lookedworse than Courtney Love if
that's telling you anything.
But you had a good Halloweengig for a while when you lived
in Buford.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
You had like a great Halloween party, oh my gosh, I
was like doing hair at the timeand one of the clients at the
salon through this.
Her favorite holiday wasHalloween, so she would throw
this ginormous Halloween partyin her historic home and each
room would have like a differenttheme.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
She would go above and beyond.
There'd be a scary movieplaying in the back on like a
giant projector.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
That's so fun.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
And everyone dressed up.
It was like one of thoseparties that you go to like out
of freaking hocus-pocus.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
That's what I was going to say.
That's what, like.
One of the few things I want inmy adult life is a Halloween
party a la hocus-pocus.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yes, like where you show up and they have champagne
at the door and everyone is fullon in costume, in costume.
And there's like drinks andfood flow and it's spooky.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
And then the Sanderson sisters show up and
puts everyone under a spell andyou just dance all night.
Everyone under a spell, yeah,the best spell ever.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
I mean honestly for the parents what an amazing
evening.
I know Like they got to danceall night and didn't even have
to be hung over the next day.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
Their kids were out and really bad danger, but they
didn't know, but they didn'teven know they were just like on
a bender.
And it like wasn't their fault.
The mom and the Madonna costume.
I know I'm like she is fabulous, I know.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
I remember not when I watched that movie as a kid, I
didn't know who Madonna was.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Really?
Yeah, I don't think I dideither, but I asked that was
like my first.
What's up with the pointy boobs?
Yeah, mom was like it's Madonna.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
That was like my first, like knowledge of Madonna
was like hocus pocus mom.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Remember when Madonna and Brittany kissed on stage
and it was the end of thefreaking world for like all
boomers.
Speaker 2 (20:12):

not coherent, but like are you?
Are you like recalling things Idon't know?
I'm like, what is her mentalstate?
Speaker 1 (21:44):
We don't know.
I mean, I don't think any of usactually know.
I know, but I'm like we don'treally have the right to know.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I know.
But also when you're puttingthe book.
How do we?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
yeah, how do we like?
Speaker 2 (21:57):

He did.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
But I like he made, he did, did some didn't know
this, but apparently I mean I'mlike finding this out now, but
apparently it was.
It's been like his reputationthat he's like well endowed.
No way, Like through interviewsand stuff, People have like
insinuated I don't know, Likethere's that one.
We need to know the truth.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Does he well endowed or is he not?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
I know, is it all over compensation.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Also also none of our business.
I know another thing.
That's none of our business,but Brittany was with him.
How old were they?
Speaker 2 (22:52):
I mean, they were like they were teenagers.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
He'd gone through puberty.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Oh, for sure.
I mean they were having sex,yeah, Anyway.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
I need to know the truth, but I also have no right
to know the truth I know.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
I know, but you know, wouldn't hurt to have for him
to be brought down a couplenotches.
No.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
No, I mean, I feel like he kind of already has.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
He's doing a troll soundtrack.
Yeah, but I feel like that'slike a good little retirement
situation.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I know I keep hating on it.
It's a good song.
Like work is work, it is a goodsong Money is money.
Money is money, you got it.
Money is a good song.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
You go in, you record a little audio.
I would love to be a voiceactress.
It would be so fun.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
I know it would be.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
It would be very fun Like you go in the booth, you
record, you watch a movie, yougo home you get a check.
That'd be really fun.
I mean, I have no idea how itactually goes.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I looked into it for a minute.
I was like you did.
Well, at what point?
In my depression?
When I lived in Houston.
I was like taking surveys formoney, because I was just like I
need to do something and then Ilooked into like voice acting.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
How do you get into it?
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I don't know if I got that far.
I was very scattered but Ialmost paid for a course.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I almost paid for a lot of courses at that time in
my life.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
No, I could not do it .
I think that's what theconclusion I came to oh, you're
like no.
My voice is not good like foracting purposes.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Interesting.
There's probably more to itthan we think.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yeah, I mean it definitely.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Like most things, most things.
I'm like I could do that, ohman.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Well, well, we went off on a tangent, but I hope
that this has been a lovelyHalloween for you, yeah, and
that we now get to stop sayingspooky season and start saying
thankful season and the.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
I'm excited.

Speaker 2 (25:07):

Speaker 1 (25:25):

Speaker 2 (25:28):

Speaker 2 (25:32):

Speaker 1 (25:34):
We like made a rating system and we need to put it

Speaker 2 (25:40):
Yes, for sure Okay.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
All right, all right.
Thanks for listening and wewill see you next.
Emergency emergency meeting.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Okay, after we recorded our last Spooky Season
episode, we realized we got likethe spookiest thing to have
ever happened in our lives.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Which is Judgment House.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
If you are a Southern Baptist, you know what Judgment
House is.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Or if you just like live in the South and have a
friend that's a Southern Baptist.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
That was what we were .
We weren't Southern Baptist, wejust had friends that were Okay
so explain to people who don'tknow what Judgment House is.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
What it is.
So I didn't realize either thatthis was like something that
more than one church did.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, same.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
I thought it was just like this one church.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Random little tiny church off the highway.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Highway and which is when shit goes down, meredith
and I were aspiring actresses,yes, and so we heard that we had
a gig and we said we don't carewhat it is, we'll do it.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
We'll take it.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
We will take it.
So, anyways, judgment House is,in lieu of a Halloween, spooky
Haunted House, you go to achurch where you walk through a
scenario of somebody dying andyou go to hell.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
And then you go to heaven, yes, and then at the end
they ask you which one you wantto go to in real life.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
Yeah, and then there's a middle-aged white man
who's sitting in a closet, whowill ask you to, will tell you
what your.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
What your steps are if you want to get to heaven.
Go to heaven, yeah.
So.
And they get really into these,like it's not just like some
sheets thrown up, and you knowwhat I mean.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Like the one that we were in was like pretty yeah, so
there's like multiple rooms soeach there's like a storyline
that you follow, like guestswill follow as a group.
Each room will be a differentscene of the story so like I was
cast as a sister of the maincharacter in like the first
(27:48):
scene and then the next room yougo to it'll be different actors
but like same characters.
So you're like following.
They're wanting to get as manypeople in there as possible to
meet their fate and decide whatthey're doing with their lives.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
So, and the one that we were in, yeah, you're
following, like.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
Anyway, different actors, same character.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
So, yes, and you're walking through some of these
death.
Yes, so in the one that we werein, a guy I think got in a
drunk driving accident.
Yes, a teenager.
So Meredith was the sister tothe drunk driver.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
So I was an angel.
I think I was in like secondgrade, third grade.
I was an angel and it was justlike me and my friend and we
were the only angels in heavenand we sat at the feet of Jesus,
who was like a middle-aged manthat went to the church.
I think he was like abasketball coach for the church
(28:43):
basketball team or something.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Real small church and so Slumpickans as to why they
had to get random-ass kids meand Caroline.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Who did not go to that church, to be part of the
play.
So we're heaven was like thisbig room.
There were some.
I said that it wasn't justsheets thrown up, but that room
was like lots of white sheetsthrown up and lots of like
candles, battery operatedcandles, jesus in a white robe,
(29:12):
angels in like a little white.
There was a stage.
He was on a stage and we werelike at his feet and there was
like a pathway to Jesus.
And before we're waiting on thenext group of people to come
into our room, my friend acrossfrom me think, just think it's
just me and this girl who's likea year younger than me or
(29:35):
something, and Jesus aka thebasketball coach, and my friend
lets out like rips, one thatlike reeks of eggs, and so she's
two and at the feet of Jesusand we're in the third grade, so
(29:55):
we can't get our shit together.
We're just like dying, likerolling, laughing.
Jesus is like giving us thedeath.
Stare to like cut it outbecause people are like walking
in the room and we laughed,slash, gagged through an entire
scene of people trying to likesee this boy come and meet Jesus
(30:16):
and it just smelled like eggs.
That is so good.
But then you went through it.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Yeah, oh yeah, I went through it.
I don't know.
I guess I was.
They gave me a break orsomething but I went through it
Child actor, spouse.
They ask a series of questionsat the end that, in your eyes,
are closed and it's all aboutlike whether or not you know
Jesus, and I raised my handbecause I didn't know what was
going on and I guess I missedher a question.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
And I went in the room with the breeze.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Yes, last thing I know.
Next thing I know I'm in acloset, like I said, with a
millage man and he's asking medo you know, jesus Christ?
Wait is not safe.
Sanctuary, no, not safesanctuary.
If anyone has ever been in ayouth group past 2002, safe
sanctuary is very important andthis was pre-2002.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
It was put in place to protect priests being alone
in a room with children.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Yes, yes, so anyway, I'm at, so you go from the start
.
Contrast of like you're inheaven with two little angels
and Jesus.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
And then you're in like a fricking mid-century or
like 80s closet with a guy andyou're like, wait, is this?
Speaker 2 (31:34):
hell.
Yeah, yeah, it's like wait aminute.
So I he's asking me questionsand I'm like wait, yes, I know
Jesus, and he's like heliterally goes oh, you're good,
you can go.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Thank God, it could have gone another way.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Oh I know, but I was as a middle schooler.
I was like what, I think.
Even at that time I was likewait, what are we doing here?
What other way could have?
What would have happened if Isaid I didn't know Jesus Like
what?
Speaker 1 (32:05):
would.
He would have read you a listof questions and then made you
copy what he was saying and thenbeen like all right, you're
going to heaven.
At the end of the day he's likeall right, you can go.
And then he tally, does ittally on his notebook and is
like, well, we saved another one.
Yeah, I think that was it We'vedone our job.
How is it?
Judgment house saved, but whoknows how many people it's
scared into heaven or hell.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
No one wanted to go to hell.
That hell was scary.
So anyway, speaking of judgmenthouse, the reason we had an
emergency meeting is because wehad a real life conversation
with someone who reminded us ofjudgment house?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Who?
Speaker 2 (32:38):
reminded us of judgment house and her
experience.
She grew up in a fundamentalistBaptist church which is like,
if you know anything about theBaptist church, it's the most I
don't know like there's Baptistand there's Southern Baptist and
then there's fundamentalBaptist.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
And fundamental.
I think they're like the onedoesn't that mean that?
They, they're the most extremeand they believe like every
single word Of the Bible to belike true in this day and age,
or something which I don't know,where stoning comes in oh.
Or like.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
I don't know that I could be wrong once again,
ignorance.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
I have no idea.
I think I think prior to thisepisode.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
But this story will clue us in.
So she was telling us about herjust judgment house experience
and she Was saying that thefirst year she did it, the death
, the cause.
There's always a cause of death.
It's always the same scenario.
It's like this cause of deathit's always teens, it's always
teens cause of death.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Well, I don't know, because you go to heaven.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
But she was saying, the one year was like so Choked
on a hamburger, and that was thecause of death, and then the
next year.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
I think what must have happened is that it like
went so well.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
They're like we gotta up.
We gotta up the ante.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Yes, we need to like make it bigger, better, as big
churches do.
They're like bring out thesmoke machines, baby yeah, so.
And then the heaters in thisand the heaters in this case.
So then they had a trifectadeath.
Yeah where it was like youcould shoot, was it?
You went through all.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
I don't think it Was choose your scenario.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
I think it was like everyone experienced three
different how traumatic that isso much scarier than a haunted
house.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Oh, so why three?
Tell us what they were.
So the first one was a gangshooting, a drive-by shooting.
The second one, God was whatwas the second one?
Speaker 1 (34:32):
the second one was a.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
School shooting school, a Columbine shooting
where, like people, wereliterally running like.
The guests were running.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
That's what she said.
Like everyone had to likeescape the school shooting.
I hate what is wrong with thesepeople, like who would do this
to somebody I don't know.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
And it feels like making a light?
I don't yeah, it's problematicon many levels.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
But then the last one , which is just as problematic
as the rest there you're allsitting in an airplane and it
was 9-11, so you're like havingto choose on this Hell heaven or
yeah, so then you die and yougo to hell.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
And then she was saying, and hurt the hell, she
was a hellion because theyweren't allowed to be demons.
Which, what is the difference?
Nothing, and they had the heatcranked up so high that the
bottom of her converse shootsneakers melted, melted and she
said she was strategicallybringing starbursts in her
pocket so they'd be melty andgooey.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
She also said that she had making the most of the
situation.
Also said that she had toscream at people that were in
there like you still have achance.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
Yeah, you still have a chance as an actor being
really envious of the peoplethat got to be in hell, because
it felt like the most realacting experience the most, the
doing the most and the most Igot out of my experience was a
really crappy boyfriend.
My brother, my cast brother,became my boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Oh yeah, was he the guy that died.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
No, well, his character was that's when I not
get to act the part because he,we were just in the first scene.
That was.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Shoot sorry.
Yeah, yeah and I didn't realizey'all met in a house other.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Boyfriend for a minute, we can we'll come back
to that because that was a weirdass boyfriend for a minute.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Yeah, judgment at a judge.
And house.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
You can only imagine it did not.
It was weird, as weird as itbegan.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Yep, man man, but anyway anyway judgment house,
are they still doing it?
Speaker 2 (36:45):
That's a great question.
Oh, look them up.
Do you have your phone?
Speaker 1 (36:49):
I don't.
Are there any in the area?
Speaker 2 (36:51):

Speaker 1 (37:00):
I feel like people would like Call people out now.
Yeah, this was back in the day.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
Yeah, and like worse than haunted houses and that
like People believed that thatwas real.
So they're like we're gonnascare the shit out of you, for
real.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
That's.
What I mean is that this islike Really traumatic and way
scarier than a haunted house,because you're literally like oh

Try.
You want to go to hell?
Speaker 2 (37:28):
Make your choice judgment house comm is a thing

Speaker 1 (38:08):
It was a big moment.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
I mean we did.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
It was like an it was like one of our first Night of
the week situation like we wentevery night of the week.
Not to our church, totally,totally different church.
Our mom was just like Sure showbiz baby.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
Our mom also was like church Sure, no show biz.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Yes, honestly, most parents are like church, sure
yeah but you know you get thedouble.
Speaker 2 (38:34):
When it's church and show biz, you say yes, can't go
wrong.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
I had to be a janitor in a church play in high school
and my boyfriend came to see it.
I was in the ninth grade,Mm-hmm and I was so embarrassed
because I was, like, dressed sougly.
Mm-hmm then I almost threw up.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
No beforehand.
Oh my gosh, I know you almostthrew up.
Speaker 1 (38:55):

about Justin Timberlake's pee,pee, and it's been a week since
(39:42):
we recorded that and we're justadding this on.
Yeah, so we have additionalthoughts.
We thought we would add.
What were they other than that?
Speaker 2 (39:50):
It would suck to be Justin Timberlake right now,
because you're just living yourlife raking in the royalties,
got this new gig within sync.
You're like you're married, youhave kids and then your ex.
From 20 years ago, if maybemore.
How many years ago that wasthat your ex from so long ago
writes a book about you andsuddenly you're like thrust back
(40:13):
in the spotlight in the worstway.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
I know that would suck.
It would suck.
I mean, there are some definiteproblematic things happening.

We went on what side?
Speaker 1 (40:24):
both.
Yes both like she's talkingabout like traumatic experiences
.
Dating him and it was doesn'tsound like it was fun for her
and not a lot of, like I think,issues.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
So like I get it, it's a part of her story.
Yes, but like can you?
