In which we discuss the great and powerful Slavic folklore crone, Baba Yaga, her house on chicken feet out in the woods, the mercurial ways in which you will learn about yourself if you go up to her house, and why she's life goals on Instagram. We also consider crone detectives, especially Gladys Mitchell's Mrs. Bradley Mysteries, and wee bit of climate panic. Recorded August 11, 2021.
