We take a night call about Evangelion and neurotic artificial intelligence from a listener that gives Emily a great excuse to explain Eva to Molly and Tess. Then it’s the saga of Jordan and Mikalya Peterson, the Canadian father daughter grifter team. All meat diets, gothic intrigue, Russian doctors inducing comas for benzo withdrawal, the Numa Numa song and maybe even...murder? For the second half of the show we are joined by writer and comedian Joan Ford to talk about her new Twitch show Fall Talk, cosplaying as girlboss Michael Myers, and why Halloween starts in August this year (hint: it’s a lot like the fireworks surplus). Get cozy with a pumpkin spice latte and your favorite Halloween candy for an all new Night Call!
