The Lady Dicks Podcast is back for season three and we’re kicking off this season with three quick Halloween origin stories.
Do you know how witches first became associated with Halloween? Or how about the fact that single women have historically performed rituals in an attempt to reveal the name of their future husbands (how-to guides included)? Or even why we have Jack O’Lanterns?
Well strap in, throw your headphones on and kick back to hang out with your three besties for the kickoff episode of The Lady Dicks Podcast season three.
