I was the "Satanist" in my HS. Stephen King, metal and punk, and admittedly a habit of leaning into whatever incorrect assumption that I accumulated just to fuck with people. I mean, if I'm going to be treated like a Satanist I may as well devil horn and hail Satan everyone.

2023-04-05 23:13:16 +0000 UTCThis was so perfect! Steve captures the essence of the time and our old school with such detail I felt we were back in school.
2023-02-03 15:54:27 +0000 UTCGlad I got the patreon because Spotify decided to cut off the episode 5 minutes early
2023-01-25 16:04:40 +0000 UTCI'm old enough to remember the Satanic Panic. You've definitely brought the worst-case scenario to full roaring life with this one, and their race for the holiest of sanctuaries was perfect. You have my heartfelt thanks.

2023-01-21 01:28:16 +0000 UTCWhat is the best time to listen to this episode? Is it ok if I listen to it after I finish Season 3 or should I listen to it between episodes 48 and 49?
