It's a Wednesday which means it's time for our cozy little corner of the internet.

This week we're combining our April Bookend with Hygge — Emily is deep in Dungeon Crawler Carl and has feelings about it, KristaLyn read a lesbian Bedazzled book and we need to talk about it. Then we pull some Hygge cards and somehow end up talking about three days without sleep, childhood smells, and a TB shot situation that apparently only happened in certain states.

Also — Emily's book Locusta is available for pre-order right now everywhere you get books. Barnes and Noble, Amazon, Penguin Random House. Pre-ordering genuinely changes an author's life. Go do it.

KristaLyn's book cover reveal is coming very soon. Stay tuned.

We didn't go looking for magic on this day. It came looking for us.

Part 3 of our Peru recap covers the day everything stopped being coincidence. A shaman we didn't plan to meet gave us a private worldview lesson in his shop. The tarot cards on the train predicted the exact day before it happened — mountain, woman walking, flowers in a bunch. And then a full ceremonial procession appeared on the trail behind us, with a shaman, musicians, animal masks, and chairs — heading to the same waterfall we were. Our guide Tina, who is Quechua and has guided these trails her whole life, had never seen this ceremony happen. Ever.

And then they pulled us into it.

We also cover the Pisac village and ruins, lunch with the Amaru people high in the Andes, the most magical train ride of our lives through the Sacred Valley, and arriving at Aguas Calientes before heading up to Machu Picchu — which gets its own episode because it deserves it.

If you've been following this series you know Peru kept proving itself. This is the episode where it stopped being subtle about it.

Want to experience this kind of magic yourself? We have trips open now — Germany this fall and Costa Rica next spring. Links in bio.

New episodes every Monday. Subscribe so you don't miss Part 4 — Machu Picchu.

Two Reddit posters think they did the right thing. Emily and KristaLyn aren't so sure.

This week on What in the Woo Woo — a psychic gets ambushed at her own coffee shop, and someone accidentally summons a Victorian ghost therapist named Agnes Butterworth to save their friend's marriage. No we are not making that up.

The Alchemist's Inkwell duo reacts with their signature mix of spiritual insight, psychic perspective, and zero chill.
