Wyrd Mountain Gals ShowWe're 300   How Did That Happen?   Part 1Episode Airs Friday    7-4-25         9pm EST
Putting together this episode felt surreal.  Time is distorted.  We're still not sure how we got to 300 episodes. At least until we think about the literal "water under the bridge...and over it...and there has been alot yes ALOT we've been through together & one episode just won't fit.  So tune in while we process 300 episodes together.  Come back next week for Part 2 where we get into some more mischief...and this time we have company!  Wonder who it will be?  
Thank you for listening & sharing this podcast.  You are the best!

Darkest One Yet Also FULL OF TRIGGERS...
Episode Airs Friday 06-13-25      9pm EST
Even though it's heavily edited, this episode is probably still too dark.  Please don't listen if you need cheering up or are fragile in any way. This episode is trauma inducing.   All the triggers are in here:  violence, mental disorders, torture, injustice, horrible deaths.  Unfinished business, generational trauma, the list goes on.
It had to come out at least once.  Now maybe we can move on.  
Maybe
TRIGGER WARNING:  Nobody should listen.

Wyrd Mountain GalsAnd Then We Sang That OneEpisode Airs Friday, 6-6-25   9pm EST
CatDog finally takes his place as the one whos's really running the show.  You'll know it when you hear it.  Something important happens in this episode that will have long-time listeners asking "did that just happen?"  This time you'll know it IF you hear it.  Also, this show has a slightly darker feel to it.  Maybe a little anxiety inducing..so fair warning!
*Trigger Warning:  This episode has a little cussing & some slightly dark stuff in there too.
