Welcome to Spirits Podcast, a boozy dive into mythology, legends, and folklore. Every week we pour a drink and learn about a new story from around the world. I'm Amanda. And I'm Julia. And this is episode 213, your urban legends second, second, second, second, chances, chances, chances. Well, I love that. That was great. What an incredible effect. Do you know, Julia, when you're watching like the Great British Bake Off or something and, you know, someone's eliminated or it's the end of the season and then they like flashback to all of the contestants or maybe years later you rewatch a season and you're like, damn, what is that person doing now? Like I'd love to just catch up with them. That's what this is, because A, we are doing a full month of your

Urban Legends. Whoa. And we could not be more excited. You've asked for it. We love doing

0:43.8

these also. And so we're like, hey, what better way to start off this Godforsaken year a little bit

0:49.2

better than the last one than a full month of Urban Legends? And B, this, your Urban Legends second chances is where we get to

0:56.0

revisit letters that have come in in the past and see what the person is up to now. There's follow-up.

1:01.2

What's been going on? Is there a second more creepier haunting that happened later that they emailed us

1:05.6

1:13.0

What a great concept. And I'm so, so excited that we're going to be doing a month of urban

1:17.4

legends. That is so much fun. And I know it's one of our listeners' favorite segments.

1:22.8

Absolutely. And also, Julia, among my favorite segments, that's what I call people sometimes,

2:02.5

If Father Time and the Baby New Year came together and created a whole perfect person and a

2:08.2

whole perfect year, it would be all those legends.

2:10.8

Ah, they're amazing.

2:12.1

Amanda, speaking of the new year, is there something new and exciting you've been watching,

2:17.3

listening to reading lately? Yes, I got to do
