Non-Episode ( or for any Fanfiction veterans : Authors Note) Just a quick check in!

In the self-made hecticness of my Monday-Sunday life, there has been a gap in recordings . This is less due to lack of interest and more due to lack of motivation. Nonetheless, I plan to return soon with more stories,more discussions,and (probably) more dad jokes .Maybe even more focus ! Tune in next time and stay warm out there!

Folklore,Local Shenanigans and a Hotdish!

Folklore,Local Shenanigans and a Hotdish!

In the second episode, Kate and her Guest ,Yoel, go over local folklore, shenanigans,notable characters, and even a hotdish.

Side Note: "What's My story ? " was a game inspired by a game Kate used to play on old chatroom apps, when asked" Whats your story?". She would then paraphrase the plot of a movie, storybook charector, or the Fresh Prince theme and pass it off as her 'life story'. These days, she uses these powers 'mostly' for good by making it into a game for all to enjoy.

Thanks again for listening! Tune in next time for stories of the 'Ice Man', more cities and facts, and a new game!
