A podcast where we talk about the things you should have learned in school but didn't learn, didn't learn fully, or didn't learn correctly. We also chat about about our cats, our haunted house, cryptids, and recent events. Hosted by a married pair, Mattie and Austin, who are a former teacher and a current librarian. We met when Mattie picked Austin out of the audience during a performance (which he was skipping class to attend), screaming at him for causing all her life's problems. It really set the tone for their 17+ years of friendship and, now, marriage.

Happy Halloween Listeners!
Well, I guess this is coming out a few days after Halloween. we have never been good at scheduling things ahead of time. We did record on Halloween so it counts.
Mattie talks about an less well known teenaged civil rights pioneer, and why we don't learn as about her as we do Rosa Parks. and we also talk about the variety of injustices she has suffered and is still experiencing as a result of her civil disobedience in the 1950s.
Then, in celebration of spooky season Austin tells the tale of an Algonquin evil spirit that drives people to extreme gluttony and cannibalism. The Wendigo. He also uncovers a previously unnoticed anachronism in a beloved Halloween movie and gives the pedantic explanation that literally nobody asked for.
