Changelings and Last Words

Oh boy, if this weeks episode seems a little off to you it is because Alissa believes that Britt has been swapped with a changeling and is diligently working on cracking the case - and eggs, to return your dear podcast host to you by next week.At first, everything seems perfectly normal, Alissa kicks off the episode with a listener response to her hot take that Princess Mononoke and movies of the like are the film version of melatonin. The listener reveals a helpful tip that will undoubtedly make not just movies, but all of life more enjoyable.Then Britt (or rather Brittabus, the changeling posing as Britt) recounts the horrific tale of Bridget Cleary, an Irish woman accused of being a changeling. Her husband, Michael Cleary, went to extreme and gruesome measures to return rid himself of this changeling fairy in hopes that his beloved wife would return. Brittabus goes on to detail the decidely undelightful history of changelings and the role of myth and monsters in coping with life's unpleasantries.Alissa then promises to lift the mood with some last words of the dying, but, perhaps unsurprisingly, fails to do so. Inspired by the last moments of comedian Sam Kinison, who is rumored to have spoken to God as he lay dying on a desert highway, she relays eye-witness accounts of those who were present for some memorable last moments.Brittabus  once again takes a swing at dragging this episode from the pits of despair with the tale of an Irish Banshee. But upon reflection, realizes that it may not have a banshee that two wee Irish lasses stumbled upon in the woods that day.And, then, as an inspirational send-off,  the ladies urge you to meditate upon the last words you will utter upon this green earth.So, enjoy and, Haunt Y’all Later.Support the showRemember to share the podcast with friends and we want to hear your stories!
