My name is Will DeFrees and this is the Sunday Scaries Podcast. You are here for the Sunday Blues.

This week things are somewhat back to normal. If you haven't noticed for the past few weeks,

I've done kind of different episodes, whether it was an extended kind of

recap of the entire Sunday Scaries brand like last week or interviews with people.

I've gone a little off script through quarantine and I think I'm going to keep it that way for a little bit.

I'm trying something new by just yeah, going unscripted. When I talked to be there in 5k

One thing she said to me that really stuck with me was that she likes that when she's just doing it,

ever seen any pictures I've posted or if you've seen the Sunday Scaries Instagram feed,

you know that grass and just kind of greenery plants, there's something that I do like. I like

the look of it. I've told the story before about how I was supposed to keep a fiddly,

figg alive at my old job and I'm not sure how many I killed, but it had to be at least three or
