Hi Ghoul Friends. Let me first apologize for the abruptness of this announcement. I want you to know I thought about this for a very long time. And I spent too much time bargaining before it became too much. I love you all and I'm so grateful. I don't know if this will last for months, a year, several, or forever. But I do know I need to put the microphone down for now. Patrons, if you would like to request a refund for August, you can find information on that here: https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/360021113811-How-to-request-a-refund The podcast, website, and Patreon will remain online as an archive. You can also adjust your tier if you'd like to contribute to the cost of keeping those the archive open. I will remain on social media and am still open to work as a folklorist, emcee, and other one-off opportunities. I just can't continue the full production of the show. Thank you again, I appreciate your support through these 8 magical years. More than you could ever know. - Adrian...or Ayden Want to hear your story on Susto?
