Podcasts about Cyber Monday

Affiliate marketing is shedding its outdated reputation and entering a new era—one centered on authenticity, emotional resonance, and genuine human connection. In fact, during the 2024 U.S. Cyber Monday, influencers and affiliate marketers were responsible for driving around 20% of e-commerce revenue, highlighting just how influential trust-based recommendations have become. At the center of that shift is “vibe marketing,” a new way of thinking about how brands and creators grow together.So, what does it really mean to “get the vibe right”? And how are creators and brands redefining influence?In this episode of Tuesdays with Morrisey, host Adam Morrisey speaks with Andrew Abony, founder and CEO of Adbloom, about how affiliate marketing is evolving into something bigger—what Andrew calls vibe marketing. Andrew's background spans traditional media, early-stage startups, and the modern creator economy, and he's on a mission to help people earn a living by being themselves.The duo talk about what it really means to “get the vibe right,” how brands are losing control (in a good way), and why authenticity is the most valuable currency in marketing today.Key takeaways from the episode…Affiliate = Authentic referrals at scaleAndrew reframes affiliate marketing as a simple idea: people sharing products they actually use and love—and getting paid for it.Vibes > ViralityBrands win when their values, products, and partners align emotionally. When that alignment is off, people feel it and tune out.Execution over everythingThere are lots of good ideas out there. The ones that win are the ones that get shipped. No matter how scrappy the start.Let go of controlThe best-performing content often comes from creators, not corporate. Smart brands are leaning into co-creation, not just dictating the narrative.The new frontier is human + AICreators are using AI to scale their voice. Not to replace themselves, but to extend what they can do across platforms.The episode also covers…The story behind Adbloom's startThe origin of affiliate marketingStanley mugs and vibe-driven growthWhy B2B is starting to look more like D2CCreating community as a byproduct of doing something specialRunning, raison d'être, and what happens when you have the will and support to winAndrew Abony is the CEO and co-founder of Adbloom, a high-growth affiliate and partnership marketing agency that helps startups and enterprise clients scale through creator-driven content and performance marketing.

So if you need a new book for spring, we've got you covered! TRANSCRIPT 00:00 Introduction and Writing Updates   Hello, everyone. Welcome to Episode 251 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is May 9, 2025, and today we are looking at ebook formatting tools. Before we get into our main topic, we'll have Coupon of the Week, a progress update at my current writing and audiobook projects, and then Question of the Week. We'll also close out the show with a preview of my new audiobook Ghost in the Assembly (as excellently narrated by Hollis McCarthy).   This week's coupon code will get you 25% off the ebook of Malison: The Complete Series at my Payhip store, and that is MALISON25. As always, we'll have the coupon code and the links in the show notes for this episode. This coupon code is valid through June the 3, 2025. So if you need a new ebook for spring, we have got you covered. Now here's where I'm at with my current writing projects. I am 87,000 words into Ghost in the Corruption and I'm hoping to hit 90,000 words by the end of today. So if all goes well, I will finish it up later this week and then begin editing. I am also 9,000 words into what my next project will be, which is Shield of Power, the final book in The Shield War series. I'm also 91,000 words into Stealth and Spells Online: Final Quest, and that will be my main project after Shield of Power is finished. So my writing goals for the next couple months will be Ghost in the Corruption, Shield of Power, Stealth and Spells Online: Final Quest, and then the final book in The Ghost Armor series (the title of which I should really decide since I'm getting close to being finished with the fifth book).   In audiobook news, recording of Ghost in the Assembly (as excellently narrated by Hollis McCarthy) is finished. That should be turning up on all the various audiobook stores before too much longer. Shield of Deception (as excellently narrated by Brad Wills) is finished and available at all the audio stores: Audible, Apple, Google Play, Spotify, Chirp, and all the others. You can get that right now. Brad should be starting a recording of Shield of Battle sometime in the second half of May, if all goes well. So that is where I'm at with my current writing projects.   00:02:09 Question of the Week   And now let's move on to Question of the Week. Question of the Week is intended to inspire enjoyable discussions of interesting topics. This week's question: what is your favorite Star Wars? The inspiration for this question is the fact that May the Fourth has become Star Wars Day (in a very tongue in cheek manner). And as you might expect, we had a variety of responses to this question. Justin says: I have not seen any Star Wars TV series, but your other choices are mine as well. I have the Trawn Trilogy in the box set and got a PC joystick just for playing TIE Fighter again. Jonathan D. says: Empire Strikes Back is still the best film. I cannot get into the Disney canon after they destroyed the Expanded Universe. I watched The Force Awakens and that killed any interest in watching Disney Star Wars for me. Books is either Heir to the Empire Trilogy or the Darth Bain trilogy. A well done film adaptation of the Darth Bain books would be the only thing that would make me want to watch any new films. Video games would have to be Knight of the Old Republic 1 or 2, with Jedi Academy coming in third. The original Battlefront games were also great.   John Paul says: Loved the Mandalorian and the Book of Boba Fett, especially when they had the characters from each other's show guest starring in them. I saw somewhere they aren't making another series, but [there] was talk about a TV movie to finish it off, but [they are] now showing Series 4 on IBMD with no date. I grew up with the original trilogy though some of the later films are good, especially the special effects, though Jar Jar Binks spoiled the first three movies. Maybe they should reedit the character out since Lucas has spent some money on adding new effects to the trilogy to bring in line with the new movies. Skeleton Crew made me think of the movie Flight of the Navigator with Star Wars added, so I enjoyed that even though it's mainly for kids. I have fond memories of Space Invaders with the sidekick from the original Fall Guy TV show. Again, made for kids though adults can enjoy if they watch tongue in cheek.   Andrew says: There are only three Star Wars movies, of which Empire Strikes Back is my favorite. I really enjoyed Mandalorian Season One. Now Star Wars is dead to me, except for lightsaber battle videos. I really like the Princess Bride Battles. I played TIE Fighter, Dark Forces, and Knights of the Old Republic.   Tom says: Favorite film, Rogue One. With you on Mandalorian Season Two as favorite TV show. Favorite game, Rogue Squadron.   Tracy says: My favorite was Return of the Jedi.   Jenny says: Thrawn Trilogy for sure! Dark Forces was my very first computer game, so it's always going to hold a special place in my heart.   William says: The unofficial remasters of the original trilogy from preserved reels are a godsend.   MG says: Knights of the Old Republic was quite good and Knights of the Old Republic 2.   John K. says: I'm a grim dark sort of guy. Really liked Rogue One but it's slightly edged out by the original Episode IV. I absolutely love Andor but honestly, have not hated anything. Enjoyed them all. I was a nut for the original X-Wing game. Got good enough to one shot TIE Fighters with one quad shot and rarely missed and learned how to solo Star Destroyers pretty easily, though it would take forever. Having played the game that John K. is talking about, I can agree with him that you could take down Star Destroyers in your X-Wing if you knew what you were doing, but it really would take forever.   Dave says: Book wise, I really enjoyed the Thrawn books by Timothy Zahn, also the X-Wing series by Michael A. Stackpole was a personal favorite.   And finally Michael says: I agree on Empire Strikes Back though as a kid, I disliked the lack of upbeat movie. Also really liked the Solo movie. I confess I found the Thrawn books underwhelming, though the original Star Wars novelization is pretty good. And finally, I got to agree on TIE Fighter, such great game. Also, I have a soft spot for Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2.   For myself, I would have to break it down into four categories because Star Wars media covers so many different formats now. For favorite movie, I would say Empire Strikes Back, with Return of the Jedi as the runner up. For the favorite TV series, Season 2 of The Mandalorian. For my favorite book, The Thrawn Trilogy by Timothy Zahn, with Revenge of the Sith by Matthew Stover, Darth Plagueis by James Luceno, and The Darth Bane Trilogy by Drew Karpyshyn coming in as strong runners up. Seriously, if you're listening to this podcast, you probably enjoy reading books, so these five are definitely worth your time.   For my favorite video games, I would say TIE Fighter, with Knights of the Old Republic as a very close runner-up. But TIE Fighter was definitely my favorite. In the game, you play as an Imperial pilot, and the designers had the clever idea of making the Empire sympathetic by having the player spend most of the missions hunting ruthless pirates, suppressing alien civil wars, and fighting renegade Imperial warlords who are trying to overthrow the Emperor. In the last two expansion packs for the game, the player is flying as Grand Admiral Thrawn's elite pilot against the renegade Grand Admiral Zaarin, and finally defeating Zaarin after like forty missions was VERY satisfying.   So those are my favorite Star Wars media items. As we can see.  there is quite a range of opinion in the answer to that question.   00:06:54 Main Topic: Ebook Formatting Tools   Now let's move on to our main topic, which is ebook formatting tools. And this is an important thing for indie authors to discuss because if you do want to self-publish your books, it is one of those foundational skills you have to master. You need to know what kind of file format the platforms you're publishing to you take and how to produce it. Now this is something you can hire out but you really, really shouldn't in my opinion, especially because some ebook formatting services charge as much as $2,000 to turn a Word document into files ready to upload for ebook stores. Considering that it is something you can easily do yourself with free tools and a little bit of practice, spending any amount of money on it is probably a waste. I mean, there's a difference between the kind of intricate formatting you would need for say, a full color medical textbook with illustrations and a 60,000 word romance novel. Fortunately, all the major software programs are nowhere near as expensive as $2,000 a book and don't have as much of a learning curve as you might expect. Both video and written tutorials are plentiful for all of these options, making it easy to learn at your own pace. Today we're going to go over four software options for formatting ebooks and discuss their pros, cons, and the best uses for them. Although some of these products have word processing functionality and other features built in, today we'll focus on just the ebook formatting part of the software. #1: The first option we will look at is Atticus. Atticus is from the same company that makes Publisher Rocket, which is a software program I've spoken of very favorably of on the show over the years. The company has made an effort to understand the needs of authors over the years and added new features to Publisher Rocket consistently as time went on. The company Kindlepreneur has also made significant enhancements to Atticus since it launched. As of the time of this recording, it is a one-time purchase option that has free ongoing updates and the current cost is $147 (in United States dollars). Expensive, but the founder of the company Dave Chesson has said frequently he doesn't like software subscriptions. So hopefully this will continue to be a one-time fee and not become a subscription thing.   So here are the pros to using Atticus. It is less expensive than Vellum and has the same features. It works on operating systems other than Mac. In theory, since it has a web client, it can work on any platform. Reviewers say it is very pleasant to use and those who want a lot of customization options are generally happy with it and it has a nice tool for creating and reusing the template for things like author bios or link pages.   The con is that it does require an Internet connection to use and you have to have a computer connected to the Internet. Some people also prefer not to have their work stored in the cloud like Atticus does. Some users report slowness while opening or closing or when saving a file, especially if it's a book with a high word account. Because of the online requirement, there can be issues related to syncing. It does not support .mobi as a file export option. However, that's not a big deal anymore because Amazon is officially phasing out the .mobi file extension and is requiring people to use .epub. So this is not a major point and it's only for people who have a customer base with very old e-readers that can't handle .epub.   And finally, Atticus does not offer a free trial period if you just want to try it out, but does offer a refund within the first 30 days if you try it and decide that you don't like it. So what users would find Atticus the best? It's probably best for PC or Linux users who don't want a Mac and also want to have lots of fine control of your formatting or customizing your layout. Atticus is also heavily built around collaboration, where different people can work on the same file. So if you do work with a team (and many indie authors do) or are co-writing a book, then Atticus might be a good tool for you to use.   #2: The second program we're going to look at is called Vellum.  Vellum has been seen as the default option for ebook formatting for a lot of writers for a while now. As of the time of recording, there is a one-time purchase option that has free ongoing updates. The current cost is $199 for the ebook only version or $249 for the version that includes paperbacks. Vellum has gone on sale occasionally in the past, usually for Cyber Monday in November. The pros for Vellum are that many reviewers consider it the best option for ebook formatting and say it delivers professional results without too much work and a minimal learning curve. Vellum lets you try out the software for free, but you won't be able to export the files you're publishing until the software is purchased. Like Atticus, it offers a 30 day window for a refund.   Vellum is not cloud-based software and it can be used offline. So if you are, for instance, working on a laptop on the road with spotty internet connectivity, this can be a lifesaver. Now for the cons and the biggest con is a big one- that Vellum is Macintosh only. You need to have a Mac to use it and it is not currently available for Windows and Linux. The developers have said that presently they have no plans to port it to either Windows or Linux. It will also not work on iOS, so that means you can't run it on your iPad or your iPhone. You can in theory use it on a PC with a Mac OS virtual machine, but people have reported very mixed success with that. The other con is that it is the most expensive option. So the users this is best for I think would be if you already have a Mac or you are willing to buy a Mac for just one piece of software. #3: The third software program we're going to look at is called Jutoh. Jutoh is a labor of love, mainly created by two people in the UK and has been around for a long, long time. As of the time of this recording, there is a one-time purchase option that costs $45 (US dollars) and a Plus version for $90 that supports some additional features. It currently offers a free trial that you can download and install, but functionality is limited in the trial version. The pros of Jutoh is that it works on Windows, Mac, and most versions of Linux. It is not cloud-based software/is local to your computer. It does not need a constant Internet connection to function. Reviewers frequently praised how responsive their customer support is and of the paid options we are discussing, it will be the least expensive of all of them. The cons are the interface is a bit dated. It does kind of look like something from the early 2000s in terms of the buttons and where they are. Because of that, it can be more difficult for some users to use than Atticus or Vellum. It does not create PDFs or print ready files, so you would not be able to use it to format your files for print books, which is something both Atticus and Vellum offer. I think this is best used for users who want a less expensive option than Atticus or Vellum or a PC user who wants a non-cloud based option.   #4: The fourth and final program we're going to look at is called Kindle Create. And as of this recording, it is the only one of these four options that is free. It is a free download. This software is created and maintained by Amazon. The pro? It's free and you can use the .epubs it creates to upload your books onto other platforms. Just because you've made your ebook in Amazon Create, that doesn't mean you can't use the file for Barnes & Noble and Kobo and Apple and so forth. You can go ahead and do that. However, because it is free software, there are quite a few cons to it. The functionality is pretty limited and only a few fonts are available. It is not good with complex layouts and Amazon's own documentation recommends not using it for books with tables, footnotes, or complex text formatting.   The program doesn't handle edits well. There are people who write books in Vellum even though the developers don't exactly recommend that. And Atticus is designed to have books written in it. However, Kindle Create definitely cannot handle that very well. Windows and Mac are supported, but you can't install it on Linux. Kindle Create no longer supports .mobi as a file export option since Amazon is moving away from that option and most other vendors haven't used it ever. That is a minor point.   I think Kindle Create is best used by users who are just starting out and don't have much in the way of budget and have books that don't require a lot of complex formatting. Kindle Create is actually quite good for novels because novels in general don't have a lot of complex formatting and because it's free, it has a little bit of a steeper learning curve, but that can be advantageous as well.   So looking at those four options, what do I use and why? Well, for the first seven or so years I was self-publishing, I didn't use any of these. I used a program called Sigil, which is an .epub editor. And if Kindle Create has a high learning curve, Sigil's is much higher because you're essentially editing the raw guts of the .epub file.   I was content using that for a number of years, but what I needed was a program that would make uploading print books and formatting print books much easier because at the time I was using Create Space and Create Space required a specialized Word template that was just an enormous headache to use. And the reason that many of the Frostborn books have exactly 24 chapters is because I had a template that worked really well with 24 chapters for print books and I wasn't going to mess that up by trying to add a chapter or have one fewer chapter. So for some of the Frostborn books, I made sure there were 24 chapters.   Obviously this was not a tenable situation for the print books, even though I was happy using Sigil for the eBooks. So I eventually heard good things about Vellum. In 2018 (I believe) I got a used Mac and installed Vellum and started using that for print books. I was much happier with that.   Because the books looked so good in print, I eventually switched over to using Vellum for formatting my ebooks as well and I've been using that ever since. So my main ebook format writing program (as of May 9, 2025) is Vellum and I have a Mac specifically for that purpose. However, I also has high praise to say about Jutoh. I got started using Jutoh because for a while, Smashwords required you to upload a book using a specialized Word format. They didn't accept .epubs for the longest time and formatting a book in that proper Word format for Smashwords was a large headache, I have to admit. I never managed to get it automated quite right. And I had frequent problems with Smashwords rejecting the Word document I uploaded and so forth. Eventually, I discovered that Jutoh also had an export option for creating Smashwords-friendly Word documents. So I tried it out and that was just a godsend, I have to admit. It saved me so much time. So for about seven years as well, I used Jutoh for Smashwords formatting. However, in 2024 after Smashwords was acquired by Draft 2 Digital and the two companies became more and more merged, Smashwords changed and now accepts properly formatted .epubs. They don't do that specialized Word document thing anymore, which has made it much easier to upload files to Smashwords, I must say. But that also means that I've used Jutoh less and less in favor of Vellum because I no longer need those specially formatted Word documents. However, I do have nothing but positive things to say about Jutoh; it is a very good program. If you don't want to shell out the $249 for Vellum or if you don't have a Mac, I think Jutoh is an excellent option for you to use. I have never actually used Atticus, but it's popular enough that I wanted to talk about it on this show. I do know a lot of people who have used it to good effect. Just bear in mind the pros and cons we mentioned. And as for Kindle Create, there's nothing wrong with it. I think it's good starting point, especially if you're just starting out and want to format your book without paying a lot of money or having to pay $2,000 to someone on the Internet to do it. I do think it's a good starting point, even though it's very basic and for your first couple of books, it would be good. But as you get more experienced and want to branch into things like print books, you'll probably want a program with greater functionality like Jutoh, Vellum, or Atticus. So myself, I use mostly Vellum (with Jutoh occasionally), and that is what I use for ebook formatting.   So that is it for this week. Thank you for listening to The Pulp Writer Show.

Bill and legendary comedian Paul Reiser go deep on all things comedy, from the early days at comedy clubs like Catch a Rising Star and the Improv, the terrible pay of early comedy, the difference between being “club funny” and what works on television, Richard Belzer, Jerry Seinfeld, Larry David, and the New York comedy scene, Paul's experience with Woody Allen, the tension between performing “works in progress” versus polished final sets, the concept of soul mates, hiring young comedy writers, and the importance of spotting talent and the subtle spark that differentiates a promising writer or comedian from the rest.

What if you could get more done in less time? That would sure come in handy around the holidays – or any time. This episode begins with a simple strategy that works great even though only one in five people do it. http://www.balancetime.com/ Every culture on the planet has some sort of religion. Why? What is it that religion does for people that makes it so popular? For one thing, people who practice a religion – any religion – report some real benefits to their life, health and longevity according to David DeSteno author of the book How God Works: The Science Behind the Benefits of Religion (https://amzn.to/3AWs2Vx) and host of the podcast How God Works (https://www.howgodworks.org). Listen as David reveals the scientific findings that explain why religion is so important to people, what the benefits are and how anyone can reap those benefits regardless of what religion you believe in.  Would you want to live in outer space? What would happen to your body and mind living miles above the earth? When you think about it, we humans aren't built to live without gravity. We've always had it. So, what happens if you go for long periods of time without it? Here to address all of this is someone who has actually lived in space for a long time – TWICE! Dave Williams is an astronaut, pilot, ER physician, former Director of Space & Life Sciences at NASA's Johnson Space Center and author of the book, Why Am I Taller?: What Happens to an Astronaut's Body in Space (https://amzn.to/3FoI5xK). Listen as he reveals the challenges of living, sleeping, eating, and everything else in zero gravity. I'm sure you have heard the phrase, “That's a whole nother story…” But wait a second! Is nother really a word? Listen as I discuss what the “nother” in “a whole nother story” is all about. PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

You know what stops a lot of people from asking their boss for a raise? It's worrying about what the boss will think of them – just because they asked. Will he or she think of you as greedy, ungrateful or what? If you have ever thought that way, you need to hear something interesting from a top negotiation expert. Source: Michael Wheeler author of The Art of Negotiation (https://amzn.to/4g4yb4c). The holiday season is full of rituals and traditions. We have Christmas trees, ornaments, food, songs, Christmas cards, mistletoe and the list goes on. Here to reveal the origins of some of your favorite Christmas traditions is James Cooper.

Nikki & Brie are in the thick of it. Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday…there's a lot going on and Christmas isn't even here yet! The Twins had plans to spend Thanksgiving together, but some unexpected events created opportunities for Nikki and Brie to celebrate the holiday in new ways. Then the sisters turned their attention to taking advantage of big deals on Black Friday and getting the most bang for their buck, but it's a Tale of Two Sisters because one of them did all of her shopping online while the other took to the streets and covered all of her Christmas bases in person.  Upon Birdie & Buddy's request, Brie has brought an Elf on the Shelf into her house. But it's not something that Nikki's prepared to do for Matteo just yet. Matteo is turning into quite the artist and his latest muse is Charlie Brown, Nikki will explain.  During the break, Brie took the kids to see Wicked and can't stop talking about it; Nikki wonders if she will miss out on a huge cultural touchstone involving flying monkeys and incredible songs. Brie also discovered a new way to keep Birdie and Buddy from trying to steal her snacks at the movies. Is this a method that could also work for you the next time you're at the theater? Then Nikki & Brie map out what they want for the rest of their 2024. There's one month left, which means you can still end the year as you wish. One is intent on not trying to overdo it this holiday season, the other is looking forward to creating balance and laying the groundwork for a better 2025.  Nikki closes the episode out with TWO choices for Inspiration & Affirmation.

Everyone is talking about it and unfortunately they might have to wait till it's streaming.  By the way, is anyone else noticing how close Thanksgiving and Christmas are this year?

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, Joe Biden proves—yet again—that he is as dishonest as he is corrupt. After repeatedly promising that he wouldn't, he just issued a pardon to his son, Hunter—but it's even worse than it sounds. In many ways, this pardon is unprecedented in American history. We'll discuss. Also, the New York Times is so desperate to smear Trump's pick for Secretary of Defense that they've now stooped to publishing private emails between Pete Hegseth and his mom. And, Pete Buttigieg gives his recipe for reducing violent crime. Apparently, crime has nothing to do with fatherless homes and everything to do with bad drinking water. Click here to join the member-exclusive portion of my show: https://bit.ly/4bEQDy6 Ep.1496 - - - DailyWire+: Our largest sale of the year is live NOW!

Have you ever heard of the word – shadenfreude. It's when you are amused by or laugh at someone else's failure or misfortune. We've all done it, and this episode begins by explaining why we do it and what it says about you. https://www.livescience.com/17398-schadenfreude-affirmation.html Why in the world would you need someone else to tell you how to sleep, breathe and hydrate yourself? You are about to find out when you listen to my discussion with Dr. Michael Breus. He is regarded as one of the top sleep experts around and he has done some extraordinary research into how making small improvements in these three simple things – sleeping, drinking and breathing – will do wonders for your health. It is simple yet powerful advice. Michael Breus is a double-boarded clinical psychologist and clinical sleep specialist and author of several books. His latest is called Sleep Drink Breathe: Simple Daily Habits for Profound Long-Term Health (https://amzn.to/3ATqDCc). Here is the link to take the Chrono Quiz Michael discusses: https://sleepdoctor.com/sleep-quizzes/chronotype-quiz/ There is a real fascination with dinosaurs in our culture. These huge creatures roamed and dominated our planet and then one day – disappeared. What are dinosaurs? How big did they get? Why did they die off? What I find so amazing is that we are still discovering new species of dinosaurs millions of years later – 46 so far this year! Hear to explain and discuss this is Armin Schmitt. He is a vertebrate paleontologist and research assistant at the Department of Earth Sciences at Oxford University and author of the book The Lost World of the Dinosaurs: Uncovering the Secrets of the Prehistoric Age (https://amzn.to/40Tz3UQ). While we have made great strides in our awareness of the dangers of drunk driving, you don't hear much “drowsy driving.” This is when people drive when they are so sleepy they fall asleep at the wheel. It happens more than you think. Listen as I explain the magnitude of the problem and what you can do. https://www.nsc.org/road/safety-topics/fatigued-driver PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

On today’s show: President Biden pardons his son. President-elect Trump picks a new FBI director. The Washington Post details how an urgently needed global agreement on plastic fell apart. Health experts say more men should get tested for the BRCA cancer gene. The Atlantic’s Kristen Brown explains why. Plus, the Bills “mafia” grabs their shovels again, the L.A.

Three hundred episodes of spine-chilling stories, cursed objects, and ghostly encounters! To celebrate this milestone, we're throwing it back to the old days with our favorite classic format: haunting stories told by each of us. But don't worry, we've packed in plenty of paranormal surprises to keep you guessing. So let's gather around our spooky Christmas tree and we will share with you tales of the Screaming Skull of Burton Agnes Hall and a haunted doll named Letta Me Out—both legends steeped in curses, poltergeist activity, and chilling connections to the afterlife. From a disembodied skull demanding its rightful place in a mansion to a 200-year-old Romanian doll with human hair (yep, you read that right), these stories will have you double-checking your locks and side-eyeing your collectibles. Then we veer into the eerie world of a murderous Elmo doll (yes, Elmo!) and listener stories featuring infamous Robert the Doll and even Ouija board encounters gone terrifyingly wrong. With poltergeist activity, clawed shadows, and astral mysteries, this episode is not for the faint-hearted. Thank you so much for 300 episodes of support, spooky fun, and being part of this ghostly journey with us. Here's to many more!

Those of us who have been blessed—whether it be love, time, or resources—have an opportunity and responsibility to share it with others. The more we give, the more we will receive.Join us in our annual Daily Stoic fundraiser for Feeding America! Every year instead of contributing to the corporate indulgence of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, we encourage our listeners to make a donation. Every $1 donated helps provide at least 10 meals, just head over to dailystoic.com/feed.
