Good Morning Romanistan 8: Book tour, ghost stories, and a chat with Robin Badaire about Agatha All Along

Romanistan

What if spirits could communicate through a simple hair comb? And what role do children play in spiritual practices? Join us as we uncover these mysteries and more, during our vibrant journey on the Good Morning Romanistan book tour. From Portland to Portsmouth, we’ve been embraced by amazing communities and experienced transformative events like our ancestral tarot workshop with Chagall PAC. Listen in as we recount our delightful stop at Cheese Louise and the heartwarming welcome from the queer community at the Sapphic Salon in Newmarket, New Hampshire.
Throughout our travels, we've also faced the challenges of planning and funding a national tour. Yet, support from fans donating to our GoFundMe allows us to reach more destinations. Our journey isn't just about reaching new cities; it's about forging meaningful connections.
We share the except of a poem “The Cursed Legend of Baba Yaga’s Ravenous Spirit” by Shari X Insanity @sharixinsanity and a ghost story from listener Nina Huertas Kaur. Then we share our own ghost stories!
In our last segment, Romani representation in mainstream media remains an important topic to us, and we dive into the portrayal of Lilia Calderu in Agatha All Along with our return guest Robin Badaire.
