Episode 75: SOS Send Wives

Saints & Witches

In Episode 75 (!), we finally discuss the folklore of the city of New Orleans. We explore the legend of the Casket Girls and the Old Ursuline Convent (were they vampires / were they vampire smugglers / would you rather fight one normal-sized vampire or 500 mini vampires). Then, we discuss the origins and practices of Voodoo and, of course, Marie Laveau.

As we mention in the intro, Saints & Witches is taking some time off! We’ve loved making these past 75 episodes, but we need a break (just thinking about the idea of 75 episodes is making us tired). We’ll post a listening guide here soon for those new to the podcast who don’t know where to start, or for those who haven’t listened to the earlier episodes since they came out.

To all our listeners, especially those who have been here from the very beginning, when we were just two pre-pandemic grad students eating too much Mexican food in a studio apartment, thank you, thank you, thank you!!! <3
