episode 34: Halloween and the Supernatural - Paranormal Proclivities
In one of our more surprisingly combative Irenicast episodes, Jeff, Mona and Allen discuss various things related to Halloween and the supernatural. Everything from their favorite Halloween memories, scary encounters, angels, demons, fear and of course some history and theology. This witch's brew of topics concludes with a new segment: Pursuit of the Trivial.
