Welcome back savory inferiors!!  The Vampire Insiders are coming in hot to celebrate the long-awaited premiere of Season 2 of Interview with the Vampire.  In today's episode Joann and Kristina dive deep into what's going on with our Wayfaring duo Louis and Claudia as, five years on from where we left them at the end of last season, they undertake a chaotic pilgrimage through war-torn Eastern Europe looking for other vampires. Our structure remains the same as last season but we've enhanced the “standout” segment and have added a new segment that tracks the progress of “Dreamstat” the Lestat projection who Louis carries with him, to Claudia's consternation.  Below are some links to follow on Twitter (you may call it X) that we reference in the episode.  Thanks for coming to listen to us each week and welcome to those of you who are new to the series and new to the podcast.   For Saturday's superfan talk on Instagram please follow @blackgirltalkfangs, @gorrei_vc, or @kristinagenx  Please follow us on Twitter: @vampire_insider and @kristinagenx @blacktress' remarks about the official AMC podcast: https://x.com/Blacktress/status/1789844472303341982 A great discussion about Romanian Vampire Folklore by @MrieMoses https://x.com/MrieMoses/status/1790061634313990615 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vampire-insider/message
