Spooky season is upon us and in our 44th episode we learn all about Marie Laveau of New Orleans. Known as the Voodoo Queen, Laveau healed and guided members of her community from all walks of life, while keeping a step ahead through the intel she collected from those same community members. Celebrated and defamed consistently held her head high. Though many were afraid it didn't keep them from seeking her out when in need!

Julie D’Aubigny, better known as La Maupin, was an Opera singing, sword fighting openly bisexual woman in Paris in the late 1600’s. This was at a time of casual gender bending and more open outlook on sex. La Maupin made a name for herself through her adventures as well as her natural singing abilities that showcased a new vocal range in the growing musical art form.

*Content Warning*

This episode includes a couple of "miserable" cat ladies dropping more F-bombs than usual. Recorded on July 26th, we had more hope at the time of recording than we do now.

Court and Kate discuss President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the presidential race, Kamala Harris's potential presidency, the assassination attempt on Trump, as well as his terrible choice at VP pick.

Remember b!tches, dissent is patriotic!
