I don't often share crazy, obscure, rediculous ghost stories with people, but these are crazy, obscure, rediculous times.  

While this deals with things that may or may not really be there, the lesson learned from this certainly exists.  Take some time and hear me out.  And then, follow the instructions at the end.  

You'll thank me later.  You'll thank yourself immediately.

To celebrate the 200th episode of the show, I've decided to turn the microphone inward and have my three favorite people that have ever walked the planet interview me.
