So between tech and mental health issues, this week is sort of a wash.
We will resume Mama on Tuesday (this would have been an off week) and do back to back content weeks to make up for it.
People should start seeing stuff in the mail anytime.
Thanks for your patience

So we're going to be migrating to our new computer in the next few days--so I've been cleaning up the old desktop and finding old sound files and early experiments from 2018 and 19 when I was feeling out ideas for the show. I came across this from May of last year where I was getting my feet wet laying out the different types of ambient sound effects and drones that roll in the background of each episode. People had asked if they could get copies of the actual soundsca...

We sit down with the chilling and lovely Betsy Puckett, the voice of Granny White and talk about a whole bunch of things including growing up in NC, the magic of Old Gods, some super secret Old Gods lore and other stuff too.
Per Betsy's request, here is the text of the poem that her reading of landed her the role of Granny White

Home stuff has arisen, and the final touches to this episode will take a little extra time--also we're doing final prep for The Wolf Sisters Part 3
Working on some changes that I need to step away from to make sure they turn out right.
Thank y'all.

Now with updated audio featuring Stephanie Hickling Beckman as Miss Darla!
To be a wolf is a thing of spring loaded joy, of black gummed panting death. Of pack and ground. Torn tendon and blood and broken bones in feasting abandon beneath a split and howling sky. But to be a wolf with the mind of mortal man or woman? No-we can’t be trusted with that kind of power without being broken by it. Not even wise women of The Clutch. Not even them...

Hey Family
Due to the trip to LA sucking all the life out of us, and a slight techincal issue that's requiring a last minute recut of a vocal track, this weeks BMAC will go live on Wed and Friday rather than Tues and Thurs.
Sorry for the delay, we just wanna make it sound the best it can.
Love an Darkness,

It has been brought to our attention (thanks, ex libris crow!) that the link to purchase tickets for our live shows on April 17th and 18th wasn't working. Looks like that link has changed. Here is the updated link for those who'd like tickets:

Witness the cut-and-dried sensibilities of one Wallydale Hobart Boggs.
CW: racism, racially motivated violence, lynching, the implied murder of a child, death of a parent, reference to the KKK, and cult ritual sacrifices.
