Georgia and Hannah are still possessed! The demon stories continue in this episode as we talk about the Japanese Yokai, Tawantinsuyu Supay, and Islamic Shaitan and how ONCE AGAIN everything we have ever known stems from colonization.
Created and co-hosted by Georgia Abrams and Hannah Rucinski.
Sound design by Shannon Webster.
Inspired by your mom's pillow talk.
