Wyrd Mountain Gals

Seasonal Tales from Wyrd Mountain - Day 3   The gals have a quick little chat about death...Byron tried to keep it light, but Alicia had to get all science-y.   *Trigger warning*  This episode speaks plainly about death & the dying process.  Don't listen if you get squeamish...   *Ghost In My House written, performed & produced by SunSlice Records   #WyrdMountain #DigitalWitchery #ItsJustDeath #An...

Alicia tells a little more about how helpful the spirit at the cottage is, while Byron admits she may or may not have let loose an angry spirit in the elevator. They go on to talk about the little children running around the old hospital (where the Mother Grove Temple is now). A quick little pleasure without any calories   #WyrdMountain #DigitalWitchery #AncestorsAreTheREALReasonForTheSeason #Ghos...

Food, Porn, & Stories is Our Skillset Sunday, October 3 The gals have a civilized conversation about nut busting...(walnuts & pecans of course) & collared green soda...which leads to more brainstorming product ideas. Along the way we hear about Byron's trouble in the garden, winter crops, their thoughts on code-switching & how much they love okra. Alicia declares that watching apples dry into face...

Desk clerks are heartless - porno edition The gals talk about their travels & experiences with hotel life. Byron tells about the time she  "went full on Appalachian" at a hotel in Ohio, which prompts Alicia to start spilling the beans   about what really goes on behind the scenes... Along the way. Byron apologize to Asheville hookers from the 80's, Alicia tells even more   juicy tales, & we learn...

Hot As All Get Out-Part 2 Coming Sunday August 16, 2020 Well, they are still going on about the groundhog. (It appears his days are numbered). Byron is almost finished "canning everything in the world". The harvest is coming in, magical oil is being put up, and neither gal is shy about their opinion on the state of today's world.. There's talk of bees and chickens. PS-Do you know your state's offi...

Hot As All Get Out-Part 1 Dog Days are here & the gals are just about over.....well...they're just about over most everything these days.  It's a long episode, to go along with the long days of unrelenting heat, then rain, then heat, then some more rain.  At least Alicia is happy about the good mushroom crop this year, in spite of losing her temper earlier in the week (gasp!)  Byron is pushing on...

The Time of Long Dying  It's "too hot to bake pie" (as Byron says) & the  conversation is a reflection of the temperature on Wyrd  Mountain. Alicia grosses Byron out with talk of fish  pedicures & they both agree that dumb-assery abounds in  these fortune cookie times. There's talk of quarantine  hair & guinea pigs.    Todays tea was:  Writer's Tears whiskey & cool mountain  water #WyrdMountainGal...

Coming of Age--The Joy of Sears Talk ranges from Sears & the power it weilded on kids (note-it's not just about the toys), to movies imprinted on our childhood.

Tea-Earl Grey & Cool water   Coming of Age--The Joy of Sears Talk ranges...

Kool-Aid, Cookies, & Fast Cars The gals have one of those good old-fashioned & un-rushed conversations that are so hard to come by anymore. Must be the heat that sent them into lanquid territory. Well...there were a few tense moments when Byron let loose about her love of Skype & Alicia came up with a new word.... #WyrdMountainGals #ette #DigitalWitchery
