This morning I released a bonus episode for you! It’s the full version of my chat with Melissa Oliveri about how she “met” Kid Cann. If you listened to episode 4, Drunk Chickens, you’ve heard part of this, but this is the whole thing.
We also talk about my haunted house, her book and podcast and a few other things. I hope you enjoy it.
Note it took place on Zoom and we had some wi-fi issues and the sound isn’t perfect, but it’s a fun conversation and I hope you enjoy it!
