BOO! We’re bringing you a very special Halloween bonus episode, featuring some very special guests! Welcome–not to the town of Spillman–but to the town of Goblinville! We’re playing literal goblins this time so… it’s about as unhinged as you’d expect. A HUGE thank you to our guest goblins: Daniel Cruz, Aaron Kaufhold, Jordan Nelson, and Grayson Nor…

Another big thanks to Jac…

Welcome to Spillman, 1924! You’re about to meet the most respectable saps this side of the Mississippi. A pious, church-going dame, a hard boiled copper, and a down-on-his-luck barber.
