How dare she. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Starring Maryna Matlock as Ida Winters,...

It's a Thanksgiving Q&A episode! Join Mary, Amanda, Maryna (via text), Dave, Ramona, and Tina (until her computer shuts down) as they answer questions about being part of the Academicasaurus podcast. Questions were submitted by awesome people who listen to the podcast, and this thing goes on approximately FOREVER.

In which Bee and Anne exchange creepy stories, Horatio is taking it personally, and Ida's voice is nowhere to be found.  *~*~*~*~*~*~* This episode was scrabbled together by Mary and Amanda while they loitered in an office and decided they probably shouldn't just not post anything for Halloween despite the fact that, legitimately, Maryna is currently working on getting her voice back. Send positive thoughts her way, forgiving thoughts Mary and Amanda's way, and Happy Halloween!
