Keeping things short and sweet today (you’ll see why momentarily 😅) but two quick things we wanted to tell you about ASAP.

1) Our brand-new streaming series Urban Legends Explained just dropped on the Great Courses Plus! You can binge all 12 episodes for free with a free trial. 

We’ve also been told by some of our wonderful librarians in the community that you should be able to watch through your local library’s Hoopla binge pass for the Great Courses and possibly through Kanopy. Please ask your friendly local librarian to help you find it if you go this route!

If you want to learn more about what urban legends are (and what they aren’t), cryptids, foodways, aliens vs fairies, ghosts like the vanishing hitchhiker, conspiracy theories, exploding toilers (we can’t make this stuff up), and so much more, we hope you’ll check it out right here.

We’ll have a lot more to say about this series soon but…

2) Sara is down with an unbelievably vicious bout of bronchitis that will not quit (you may recall that last year, Sara came down with CROUP despite being, you know, over the age of 5 – respiratory illnesses are not her friend), and Brittany is holding everything together with her teeth solo. Thank you in advance for your patience if response times on emails are a bit slow. We’re going to be in triage mode until Sara is back on her feet.

That’s all for now, and we hope you love the series – if you do, please leave a review, it helps so much!

P.S. The set the Great Courses built for the urban legends series is AMAZING. So many little Nessie Easter eggs and such a vibe. Mad props to them for making it look so perfectly atmospheric and on-theme.
