Holidayz & Birthdayz (with MildaMay)

06/12/19 • 28 min

Megan and AJ are excited to have self-described avid listener MildaMay (personally known as Mathilda Riley) as the guest for this special birthday episode of the podcast. In honor of Megan's special day, we discuss the quintessential British birthday and other country-exclusive holidays. Our American listeners will find out why the innocent-sounding Bonfire Night is actually so morbid, and y'all British peeps will get clued in on the origins of Black Friday. Shout out to Jess Ellis for having us on her podcast, St. Andrew for slaying a dragon, and happy birthday Megan and her Bro-la Guinto! The songs featured in this episode are "Down" and "Hold Your Tongue" by MildaMay.
