Oni was away this episode, so Erin and I have a meandering (I do most of the meandering) conversation about friendship, coming out to friends and family about Paganism and the difficulties of meeting new people as you get older (at least for me). It is a long episode, so no music this time. It is a bit different from a regular show but we hope you like it.
