Episode 49: Day of the Dead and Other Traditions
Many of the holidays we celebrate have deeply-rooted traditions. The U.S. holiday, Halloween, has its roots in the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, where people lit bonfires and wore costumes to ward off ghosts to welcome the harvest at the end of summer. We can trace the earliest roots of the Day of the Dead holiday to the Aztec people who used skulls to honor the dead. Listen in as the Lasses continue the Halloween / Fall theme as they share some October / November holidays celebrated around the world.
Episode 48: Now That’s Scary!
Ever been in a situation that made the hairs on the back of your neck stand straight up? Ever experienced something unexplainable, creepy or just downright scary? Well it’s October and in the United States we celebrate Halloween on October 31st. Children and adults dress in costumes and attend parties, visit haunted houses, and go door-to-door “trick-or-treating” to collect sweets from their neighbors. In honor of Halloween, we thought we would dedicate this episode to scary / weird stories that we’ve experienced in our lives. Take a listen as the Lasses reminisce about weird and spooky things they’ve experienced.

The ratio of man to woman gamers was perceived to be in favor of men. Statistically speaking, the difference is not that big. Since 2008, the percentage of female gamers hasn’t fallen under 40%.

Episode 33: Supernatural Season 1
Alright Wayward Lasses and Lads! Do you remember the very first episode of Supernatural, “Pilot”? Pilot introduced us to the characters of Sam and Dean Winchester, two brothers who travel throughout the country hunting supernatural creatures as they search for their missing father.

Have a listen and let us know if we matched up to your favorite!!
