BONUS: They Burned Women, Not Witches with The Human Resorceress

Tabitha? Cute, but don't mess. 

Endora? Fierce.

Sabrina? Work.

Joanne Lakomski? Um, legend.

We're here with some new, free bonus content to start off 2025. Our recording with Joanne Lakomski, The Human Resorceress, was particularly content-rich and timely as we reflect on this past year while priming us for the new one.

Hey, if you're one of our Proofing Stage+ Patreon subscribers, this is your second bonus with Joanne. Just a little plug for supporting us in that way. Ahem... 

This bonus content highlights themes that we couldn't fit into our main episode with Joanne. Wanna know one? All right. Let me give you a hint.

There are so many things we find irritating that people regularly do. One is using the word "witch" to sanitize what they really want to call someone - "bitch." Yes, it's annoying that they're unnecessarily pulling a punch. But for us, it's also about mislabeling someone as a "witch." Rude. 

Don't be a Derwood! Treat yourself by listening to this bonus episode.

While we're at it - shout out to the Gladys Kravitzs in your life!
