St. Olga of Kyiv, the Saint You Don't Want to Mess With

A saint for a Halloween episode?! I know it might seem backwards, but, let me tell you: this is NOT a saint you want to mess with. Her story is violent with scenes that would be appropriate for a horror movie. St. Olga is the patron saint for the city of Kyiv but I personally like to think of her as the patron saint of "f*ck around and find out." In our tale...people do and they did...
KT is out again and is officially down with Covid. We wish her a speedy recovery!
