Episode 59 – Witch Hunts
Stephen spent the weekend at a writer’s retreat in Salem, MA, so we start off discussing that and lead into talking about witch hunts in general.
Lots of fun facts when talking about the whole Salem witch trials. Some of those facts are how we’ve learned new info, though it’s not reflected in our history yet.
There are a lot of thoughts on what is and isn’t something that should be dealt with in our society. Plus, various ways to deal with it. Everything from false allegations of abuse to cancel culture and fireworks PTSD.
