Happy Halloween! In honor of FOUR years of Ghosts and Ghouls we decided to take a trip to Salem and get a little witchy. We talk about The Witch house, supposedly haunted and with a family curse. We discuss horoscopes, folklore, and get confused about our own personal history. If this episode sounds a little like frankenstien's monster bear with us, Kristen helped in editing again. We'd appreciate it if you took a moment to help our podcast by rating and reviewing on apple and NOW on Spotify!

Pop Quiz: What's the Capital of Delaware? It's okay, we didn't know either, and it isn't Delaware City. But that is whereabouts Fort Delaware is with all the ghosts of pirates and soldiers past. It's on an adorably named island but has a rough history. We find out who actually died there, listen to some screaming, and realize Kristen doesn't remember anything about the last 134 episodes.

Brrrr it's cold in here, must be some ice crusted spirits in the atmosphere! Anyway, we're in Idaho talking about a very cool (heh) location called the Shoshone Ice Caves. Apparently the spirit of an Native American Princess was trapped there when she was buried in the caves. Now she's begging to get out. Or is she? We also talk about big bears and small cannibal dwarves.

If you're a long time listener you'll know that we usually take an annual pilgrimage to one of the most haunted cities in the US. This year is no different! We headed to Savannah, GA this episode but with a twist. We drove just a little further to take a ghost tour in Tybee Island. We talked ghosts, aliens, cryptids, and heard some terrible karaoke. But is Tybee Haunted enough for a ghost tour? Decide for yourself! We'd appreciate it if you took a moment to help our podcast by rating and reviewing on apple and NOW on Spotify!

Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area. This episode of "Art is Awesome" features painter Luis Felipe Chavez, who discusses his journey from a small town in Mexico to exhibiting his work in San Francisco. Emily explores Luis's background, his inspiration from Mexican muralism, and his experience navigating life and art between two countries. The conversation covers his solo exhibition "Intermedial," which juxtaposes places and architecture from Mexico and the United States, reflecting on themes of migration, identity, and cultural overlap. Luis shares personal stories about his artistic development, the impact of winning a drawing contest as a teenager, and the influence of artists like Jose Clemente Orozco. About Artist Luis Felipe Chavez :Luis Felipe Chavez is a queer artist originally from a small town in central-western Mexico. His artistic journey began at the age of fourteen with drawing and painting classes in Guadalajara, Jalisco.From 2015 to 2020, Chavez pursued a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Visual Arts at the University of Guadalajara. Each summer during those years, he traveled to the U.S. to visit his family—spending time working alongside his father and brother in the agricultural fields of Bakersfield, California, and in factories in Phoenix, Arizona.In 2020, amid a global atmosphere of uncertainty and loss, Chavez completed his degree and began developing a new body of work. Later that year, driven by a desire for change despite limited English and lingering fears, he packed a few clothes and some paintings into a suitcase and moved to California.By the end of 2021, Chavez relocated to San Francisco, where he continues to live and work. Working primarily with traditional drawing and painting techniques, his art explores themes of migration, labor, identity, and belonging through a queer, cross-cultural lens.Visit Luis' Website:  LuisFelipeStudio.ComFollow Luis on Instagram: @LuisFelipeStudioMore on Luis' exhibit "INTERMEDIO" at Jonathon Carver Moore CLICK HERE. --About Podcast Host Emily Wilson:Emily a writer in San Francisco, with work in outlets including Hyperallergic, Artforum, 48 Hills, the Daily Beast, California Magazine, Latino USA, and Women's Media Center.

Shhh! Keep your voice down, this is a library. Or at least this is an episode about the Hutchinson Public Library. A haunted one at that though it seems like there is a little bit of main character syndrome going on with the ghost. Seems like the librarian who worked here couldn't keep away for long, even in death. We love libraries even if they aren't haunted like the Hutchinson supposedly is.

It's a night at the museum, but one about mental health, not mentalist like Kristen may have thought. We've got a potential new Bingo game in the making so make sure you make a note of our favorite disease this episode. Other than that we have replicas, EVPs, and a lot of undigested metals.

In this unforgettable episode of The Running Wine Mom, host Samantha Cieslinski sits down with John Graham—former U.S. diplomat, mountaineer, author, and Executive Director of the Giraffe Heroes Project.John's life is part Indiana Jones, part spiritual guide. From navigating revolutionary Libya and surviving a near-death battle in Vietnam, to climbing the perilous, never-again-attempted North Wall of Denali, his stories are gripping. But it's the transformation—from thrill-seeking adrenaline junkie to global changemaker—that takes this conversation to another level.We explore what real courage looks like, how to live a meaningful life, why service matters, and how sharing stories can move people more than lectures ever will. Oh, and yes—he has a TikTok channel called Badass Granddad, and it's exactly what you think.Whether you're facing a big life decision or just need a reminder of your own strength, this episode is for you.

September really said, “Let's test her.” In one week, I collected a whole new friend group, blew through way too much money going out, and earned a solid “F” on my first fantasy football report card (thank you, apparently I suck at drafting). And because life loves balance, my 30s decided to show up with random knee pain every time I try to work out — cute. Add in football season officially here, fall vibes taking over, and whispers of an early winter, and honestly… we're thriving. This is your fun, slightly unhinged, very sarcastic catch-up on how September is already giving main character energy.

Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area. Today, we are replaying Emily's chat with photographer Shao Feng Hsu from August of 2023. The Podcast is taking a quick end of Summer break, but will return with a brand new Episode in mid September. About Artist Shao Feng Hsu:Shao-Feng Hsu is a photographer whose work around the world mainly focuses on the interaction of humans and aquatic environment. From his native Taiwan — where he trained as a competitive swimmer — to Australia, Cambodia, Japan, and beyond, Shao-Feng Hsu has immersed himself in aquatic cultures in an ongoing study of the impact of the Anthropocene Era on our waters. In December 2017, he was selected to participate in Angkor Photo Festival Workshop, where he documented life in a village without proper sanitation and running water. Expanding on the project's themes back in Taiwan, he collaborated with the environmental NGO, RE-Think, on projects to illustrate shoreline pollution. His project, Inner Tidal Zones, combines color photograms and digital images to capture the perspective of aquatic creatures and the emotions of the water. He is a graduate of the Creative Practices program at the International Center of Photography and a recipient of Rita K. Hillman Award of Excellence. During the pandemic lockdown he co-founded Fotodemic.org and cademy.biz. He is currently a Fellow at the Headlands Center of the Arts and teaches B&W darkroom at California College of the Arts (CCA) Photography Program.Visit Shao's Website: ShaoFengHsu.comFollow Shao on Instagram: @ShaoFengHsuFor more about the Headlands Graduate Fellowships HERE.Pictures of You: Headlands Center for the Arts Graduate Fellowship Exhibition at The LabSF Camerawork --About Podcast Host Emily Wilson:Emily a writer in San Francisco, with work in outlets including Hyperallergic, Artforum, 48 Hills, the Daily Beast, California Magazine, Latino USA, and Women's Media Center.

Today I'm talking to the podcast expert herself… Kylee Chandler! She's spent nearly a decade helping podcast hosts grow their shows, some by over 200% in reach, all while hosting a podcast of her own (which I was just on, by the way!). Basically, she knows her way around podcasting. In this episode, I'm picking her brain to get a better understanding of a field I've been in for a long time, but from a fresh, expert perspective. We're also talking about whether YOU are the right person to start a podcast. Because I know you've thought about it... and if so, this is a great episode to get some clarity on that question.

Hi Creative Cutie.!This week I'm sharing something really personal with you. I recorded this episode right from my bed, no video, no script, just me and my heart. I've been going through a season of deep creative grief, and I wanted to take you inside what that actually looks and feels like. It's raw, it's real, and honestly… It was also super healing. In this solo episode, I open up about the changing tides in my creativity, what it means to close a long chapter, and how I'm learning (again) to make space for my inner artist to come back to life. If you've ever felt stuck, unsure, or like something in you is ending so something else can begin, you are not alone. From this episode, you'll learn: -What “creative grief” really looks like (and why we need to talk about it more)-How identity and creativity are deeply intertwined-Why the podcasting industry is shifting and how that's impacting indie creators-The cost of constant output and what it really means to take a creative break-Why your inner artist always returns when you're readyI also read you a personal journal entry I wrote as a love letter to my artist self, and maybe it'll speak to yours, too.Coach Dad (The children's youtube show I worked on): https://youtu.be/WrU6T_JIQT4?si=uW5k4LyJjyOkXlhD&t=256

Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area. In this Episode, Emily chats with "The Button Man", Harlem artist Beau McCall, an artist renowned for his unique use of buttons in wearable and visual art. McCall's work is featured in prominent collections such as New York's Museum of Arts and Design and London's Victoria and Albert Museum. McCall recounts his upbringing in Philadelphia, his move to Harlem, and his early inspirations. He explains how his fascination with buttons began with his mother's collection and grew through various craft classes. McCall shares memories of his artistic evolution, his experiences with the Harlem community, and the personal significance of his work, including tributes to friends lost to AIDS. The episode concludes with McCall's advice to aspiring artists and a nod to his ongoing support from his mother.About Artist Beau McCall :Drawing inspiration from the vast button collection of his mother and family, Beau McCall creates wearable and visual art by applying clothing buttons onto mostly upcycled fabrics, materials, and objects. With deliberate focus the buttons are arranged to stimulate one's curiosity and imagination, while simultaneously drawing attention to the unique history of buttons. Thereby McCall's work generates a discussion surrounding many topics such as pop culture and social justice.McCall began his professional career in Harlem in the 1980s after arriving from his native, Philadelphia with nothing more than a few hundred dollars, a duffel bag, and buttons. Circa 1988 he made his critically acclaimed wearable art debut at The Harlem Institute of Fashion (HIF) show for HARLEM WEEK. McCall went on to become an established force within HIF's Black Fashion Museum collective presenting at their shows consecutively through circa 1995, as well being featured in their museum exhibitions and prestigious events. During this time, McCall's visually captivating work was featured in the fashion bible Women's Wear Daily, on the PBS version of George C. Wolfe's The Colored Museum (1991), and in the award-winning film Quartier Mozart (1992), directed by Jean-Pierre Bekolo. The film won prizes at film festivals in Cannes, Locarno, and Montreal and was nominated, in 1993, for a British Film Institute award.McCall eventually applied his mastery of the button to visual art. Since then, he's been proclaimed by American Craft magazine as “The Button Man.” His visual and wearable art has been included in exhibitions at The Museum at FIT, Nordstrom, the African American Museum in Philadelphia, Houston Museum of African American Culture, Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History, Stax Museum of American Soul Music, the Langston Hughes House in partnership with the inaugural Columbia University Wallach Art Gallery Uptown triennial and StoryCorps, and Rush Arts Gallery. McCall's work is held in the permanent collection of public institutions and by private individuals including the Museum of Arts and Design (New York), Philadelphia Museum of Art (Philadelphia), Victoria and Albert Museum (London), The Museum at FIT (New York), Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture (New York), Amistad Research Center (New Orleans), The Museum of Modern Art Library (New York), Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art (New York), Stonewall National Museum & Archives (Fort Lauderdale), and The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Library (San Francisco), Cyndi Lauper's True Colors Residence, Debbie Harry of Blondie, Jeffrey Gibson, and Cristina Grajales.

Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area. In this week's episode, Emily interviews painter and muralist Oscar Lopez. Oscar shares his journey from growing up in Mexico City, where graffiti first introduced him to art, to becoming an established artist in California. He talks about his murals honoring farm workers, his shift from computer science to art, and the challenges he faced as a minority artist. Oscar also discusses the importance of believing in oneself and the struggle with self-identity as an artist. His works are currently displayed at the Institute of Contemporary Art in San Jose and Fort Mason in San Francisco.About Artist Oscar Lopez in His Own Words:I am visual artist born and raised in Mexico City, where I first came into contact of the art world  in the Graffiti urban art scene. After immigrating to the USA to San Francisco, Bay area (Silicon Valley),  focusing on trying to understand our complex society through a Mexican immigrant's lens in the USA. As a Mexican native who has being affected by the influence and the interruption of my culture by international immigrants and trends of imperialistic organizations. I use a critical eye to engage with the globalization, imperialism, and capitalism that affect every corner of the two nations that share my soul. My concerns are reflected in a dialogue of the Stockholm syndrome symptoms created by the oppression and discrimination of imperialistic orders. In both sides of the border this is having a bigger impact in minorities, people of color and the workers that hold entire nations that also suffer of social and cultural amnesia. In order to survive in these societies built on the foundations of white supremacy and colonialism our ancestors have been forced for generations to either hide, directly confront, or sympathize with our oppressors, resulting in a mass forgetting of cultural and social practices. As our cultural identity and practices have been suppressed we have become hostages in our own homeland. Our collective social and culture amnesia continues to affect people of color on both sides of the border.The globalization of multicultural problems such as classism, racism, and inequality affect the social and psychological side of humanity. Since we so easily forget where we come from as individuals, as an artist I choose to remember, honor, and reclaim those roots and rights. Multicultural problems affect how we see ourselves in comparison to others, in a disengagement with our history, and in a loss of our customs. Even the color of our skin is a source of contention. These problems are intangible, invisible for many. As an artist, I want to create tangible images that reflect our psychological symptoms and demand us to confront our submission to the powers that hold us.Visit Oscar's Website:  ArtByOscarLopez.comFollow  on Instagram:  @OscarLopezArtFor more on his mural at Fort Mason, CLICK HERE. For more on his mural at the ICA San Jose, CLICK HERE. --About Podcast Host Emily Wilson:Emily a writer in San Francisco, with work in outlets including Hyperallergic, Artforum, 48 Hills, the Daily Beast, California Magazine, Latino USA, and Women's Media Center.

Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area. In this episode, Emily Wilson interviews painter Emilio Villalba about his personal and professional journey in the art world. Emilio discusses his decision to become a full-time artist, his creative process, and the inspirations behind his latest show, 'Paintings from Home,' at Dolby Chadwick in San Francisco. Emilio, who also teaches Canada College, also shares the challenges and rewards of his artistic practice, his background as an animator, and insights into his creative influences, notably the Bay Area figurative artists. About Artist Emilio Villalba:Born in Southern California in 1984 to Mexican immigrants, Emilio Villalba felt his artistic drive early on. Emilio initially studied animation and received his BFA in 2006 from the Art Institute of California and quickly began work in that field in his early 20's until moving to San Francisco and transitioned to the medium of painting. In San Francisco he received his MFA in Painting in 2012 from the Academy of Art University. Villalba's work reflects his studies in both abstract and figurative painting. At the core of Emilio's painting's there is pure portraiture, but great focus on the disharmony of the self and perception. Pressures from society and the toll it takes on the emotional state of the subject when confronted with benevolence. Raw emotions and the fragility of the soul. Villalba overlaps and repeats human features with a kaleidoscope effect. “Don't Worry” is the 2018 painting of his that I decided to feature. It pulls you in with a sadness at its core and doesn't want to let you go. It reminds me of the face we may give to the world, that all is ok, but the eyes tell a different story. I urge you follow the links below and discover his somber and seductive work.Visit Emilio's Website:  EmilioVillalbaArt.comFollow  on Instagram:  @Emilio_VillalbaFor more on Emilio's work at The Dolby Chadwick Gallery, CLICK HERE.--About Podcast Host Emily Wilson:Emily a writer in San Francisco, with work in outlets including Hyperallergic, Artforum, 48 Hills, the Daily Beast, California Magazine, Latino USA, and Women's Media Center.
