We hope you're sitting down for this - the KDNM family just got a little smaller, and Josie decides to turn the show into a remembrance ceremony. Plus, Frank's being kind of squirrelly. What's that about? When the lines open up, Josie pitches a novel to a murder suspect, counsels a paranormal throuple, audits a recent widow, and mediates a marriage bedeviled by daredevilry (that's very fun to say out loud - go ahead, try it). Josie's was created by Maximilian Clark and Rachel Music. Our...
