Partial list of food talked about:Pecan turtles, Feast of Seven Fishes, sody bread, homemade caramel, indian punch, russian tea, bloody mary, brujita,

The gals are winding down after a long holiday season & their hearts are full (We're not sure if it's eggnog, turkey, or something else!).

Farm Dreams & Powdered Food
Byron is keeping farmer's hours & dreaming of the day she'll have a big old farm to take care of. True to form, she's already got a plan--she's going to use "woofers" to help with the labor. ....Woofers?
The gals talk about Tower Time & some of the things you can do to help. Alicia declares that her generation had the best music...
And food...always food...

Wyrd Mountain GalsThe Customer Is Always Right
Well, Byron hasn't kicked anything, tripped on anything, or "blessed anybody out" so far today (it's still early though). Alicia recounts her latest customer service nightmare & declares "I know what I'm doing with this customer service crap". Does she really? You decide...
Great Question from Eric Sellers-Spectre Detectors Paranormal Investigations. Thanks!

That's A Wrap
The gals finish their conversation about life, the world, & everything in it. Technology worth having, childhood fears, some really gross physical events (cause you know...life) , & finally, looking forward to the new year & what that means to a couple of Pagan Appalachian Mountain Gals...
"Your guts are just not supposed to come out" ~Byron Ballard
*Trigger warning* physical "events" with icky consequences and so much more to be triggered by. Just don't listen if you're sensitive, OK? .

The Best One YetNovember 22, 2028 PM EST
The gals have a quick chat about… Well the usual… Food, porn, product ideas. Byron promises a future story of a ruined family Thanksgiving and Alicia (who was full of piss & vinegar that day) tells tales about a former coworker's big screwup at the country club. In the process, the gals come up with the best product idea yet. Can y'all guess which one it is? Whew!
