Groundhogs Are Not Good Prognosticators

Groundhogs Aren't Good Prognosticators 
Byron doesnt think groundhogs are good weather predicters.  Alicia's studying biphasic sleeping. They discuss going out (fully vaccinated & masked) & manage to string together everything but the subject they were going to talk about in this unhurried episodel

Death Disgust and Blue Emu

The Wyrd Mountain Gal Show with Byron and AliciaDeath, Disgust, & Blu EmuEpisode Airs Sunday 1-30-227pm EST
When asked how she's doing, Byron replied "I'm just about getting by with prayer & wine'.  Did you know she will eat Velveeta before paying $500 lb for fine Stilton....although she does like a good Stilton...  They start out reminiscing about old Asheville, the black business district, the restaurants, & the music & meander through a few more topics before demonstrating the fabled Appalachian Goodbye".  
***Trigger Warning-many gross subjects here, also, lots of death, adult subjects, porno, etc.  The usual madness for some, but if you're squeamish or catch the vapors easily you should not listen to any of it!  Seriously, you'd be much better off somewhere else.***

Rewind - Mushrooms and Onion Set - The Gross Episode

Rewind - Mushrooms and Onion Sets - The Gross EpisodeEpisode Airs Sunday, - 1-23-21 7pm EST-Byron & Alicia wax loquacious about the weather & the old way of forecasting by the signs.   They're gals in good form in this 1 hour episode. They've come up with a new term--"intuitive" podcasting, Byron discovers Clabber Girl baking soda & Alicia is gaga for the upcoming mushroom season.
They both want to know about the rudest/most insulting thing someone ever said to their listeners & start it off by sharing their own stories..
Did you know-->"It smells like early spring, which starts Feb 1st and it doesnt look like chicks and bunnies".
Trigger Warning-some gross things, a weird mention of squirrel genitalia & paddling in school is discussed.....but honestly....if you listen to us regularly you're probably used to it by now.... #WyrdMountainGals#MoreOnionSets#Spring2022#Mushrooms2022#Mugwort#Paddled#MushroomGirl#DigitalWitchery

Everything Sounds Like A Country Song Now

Everything Is Like A Country Music Song  These Days...
Byron remembers talk about the animals  praying at midnight.  Matter of fact, she  tried to prove it by sleeping in the barn  on Christmas night.  She tells the story  of cutting a tree when she was 10 years  old.  Seems the gals have had two very  different Christmas's.
