We are better Red than dead with our 2nd time guest, Red Heartbreaker! We remember our first email addresses, get the chardanotes on chardonnay, pop plosives, and bemoan the grossness of feelings. Red tells us about her experience with EMDR for trauma (tw for folks dealing with PTSD), and we look for temples for the secular life.

Sea Hags Podcast

Episode 108 - What's Your Temple?

So much is happening and so much nothing is happening! Here is a second remote-recorded episode, with one host in the studio and the other in East Anglia. Since recording, the idiot foreign correspondent has been repatriated to Canada, safely and in once piece, to begin quarantine. MORE LIKE BORE-ANTINE. We’re doing our best.

Episode 121 - Repatriation Station

Desperate times call for special measures. The Sea Hags are back, albeit remotely, to bring you a bi-continental chat about friendship in the time of ugghhhhhhhhh.

Episode 120 - We In This Binch

Hoist yer butt right up to the noozle! An OG hag joins us this week, Michelle Wishart, a guest nearly three years in the making – she corroborates our whale story (how validating), and describes her erotic encounters with Prince Adam of Eternia. NSFP not safe for parents.

Episode 119 - Horny for He-Man

Right off the top, let’s be clear that the title is not some historical reference, we begin with C bombs right away and it does not stop! Those delicate of ear, turn away! We live for spicy water, highway terlets, and scheming. We debrief our self-sustaining travel and fantasize the ultimate solo trips.

Episode 118 - BCE

Perhaps our first guest whose name is also a sentence, comedian Gina Harms cooks with us in the solar oven that is our studio shanty shack in the summer. She sells seashells. She schools us about modern classic The O.C. (mmmm whatcha say), and we grill her on her fantasy adoptive parents.

Episode 117 - Fresh Princed

Karen New, composer and one member of our White Knuckling the Dodger chorus, is in the (literally, extremely, very) hot seat this week. She joins us to muse about the relationship between one’s taste and one’s skill in art, and the paralysing fear of feedback. Buzzwords for this episode - Awkwardtunity, polyphony, flugelhorn.

Episode 116 - Flamingo Style

Our guest this week is a beam of light in human form, it’s the wonderful, vulnerable, talented Megan Phillips! We half-celebrate, half-bemoan the demise of Vancouver restaurants with distinctly hostile service, confuse a Burger King sign for the full moon, and squeal over bullet journals. Megan juggles an imaginary soceress’s bosom and explains Dolphins vs. Otters. We all fall in love a little bit!

Episode 115 - Witch Titties

Chris had an enriching, exciting week, and Katie just has… her period. It’s a hilarious blend of disparate energies until we start spitballing all the various and sundry ways that we could make our podcast be not such a bad podcast. Or, to use more positive terminology, how to make something that actually has an elevator pitch. What would you do if ______ wasn’t in the way?

Episode 114 - Daydream Believers

Il n'y a pas d'invité cette semaine! Just us chickens, lounging by the Jersey Stretch Shore. We have recorded ourselves supposedly “turning over a new leaf”, a move that will surely serve to embarrass us when we are invariably back on our respective bullshit later. Physical, practical, and metaphorical cleansing occurs between blasting the Goofy Movie soundtrack and plotting future book club outings. (cw - diet/body/weight talk)

Episode 113 - Habit Tracker

We’re getting gother than usual this week with newly minted Death Doula, Chelsey Blair! We discuss doula-ing at the beginning and end of life (and how it’s messed up there’s no doula for all the tough stuff in between), Medical Assistance in Dying, and the sorry business of regrets. We also make time to bully pompous academics while BEING pompous academics. Chris does a Chowder Crawl Clam Slam in the place where they done did made a Twilight.

Episode 112 - MAID to Order

Well, well, well, look who finally visited from the BIG CITY, it’s big city bigshot Kaitlin Fontana! She just got off a plane from NYC (hey, i’m flyin’ here!) and came right to the shack to catch us up on all the glorious debauchery she’s currently involved in, such as showing a pilot at Sundance, getting women hired into creative positions, and… oh yeah, writing a series about polyamory for Chatelaine! Truckin’ and fuckin’. We get very NSFW in the second half, so this is not one for Gam Gam and Pop Pop.

Episode 111 - Women on Top

This week, we’re joined by local stand-up darling Randee Neumeyer! We discuss true crime (obviously, we’re 3 women on a podcast), ghost stories, being a food services shithead, and how Randee’s dad has only ever cried once–over a youtube video of a lion. Go see Randee’s monthly show The List at Little Mountain Gallery in East Van! It’s on this Friday, April 27.

Episode 110 - I Love a List

Super cool babe Marta Wesselhoff join us for her second turn on the show. We recollect Canadian PSAs to American expat Marta’s confusion (blessed are they who know not Astar), unpack the ghost-angel dichotomy, and throw Chris in the ocean for her own good. Cover up your downstairs mouth, because Marta is a cop. No, wait, she’s not a cop. Is she? Because we have an excess of laudanum on this episode, and I am NOT going back to jail.

Episode 109 - Mary Poppers

Lauren Martin returns for her third visit to the podcast, having made a small human in the intervening period! We hit our most stereotypical points - astrology, mindfulness, witch camp, negative feelings, mom fights and how hard it is to make art. Lauren is pitching her short documentary to Storyhive, so check it out here! Voting starts April 3rd!

Episode 107 - Guilt Bindle

The Audio Adventures of Pacific Coast Cronies.
