Life's a Pitch Podcast

Or don't, do what you want, we're not here to...

It's paranormal horror week, expect ghosts and ghouls, spirits and seances... and silliness. When a Toy Store employee is among those killed in a plane crash, she's surprised when she wakes up. Now someone responsible for the crash is claiming to be able to talk to the dead, and making bank off the tragedy. Can she use her limited poltergeist powers (activating Build-a-bear sound chips) to get the...
