Finding the difference between a “friend” and a “fiend” is more difficult than noticing the letter “R”. A friendly face can bring bad intentions, and sometimes bad intentions can bring a friendly face to the rescue. Knowing how to tell the difference is the key to survival.

During October, remember to stop and smell the roses, pick those pumpkins, and… talk to owls? In this episode, nature speaks in different ways, and not listening could have grave consequences…

Two lessons my mother taught me when I was a child: "Don't bottle up your emotions" and "a wound won't heal if you keep picking at it." Not everyone was lucky to have learned those lessons. Those that won't heal themselves are doomed to repeatedly open old wounds...

How do you cope with your mortality?

Some raise a family to carry on their legacy. Some take risks to get the most out of life. Some create art (and podcasts) to help work through their constant fear of death. Take YOUR reason and share it with someone else. Everyone is terrified, but at least we are all terrified together. You'll never have to face the darkness alone.

For our final episode, we have two Jack O’ Lanterns that each have their own perspective on the living.

Thank you, everyone who has listened and spread the word!

Remember: children of October never grow old, and they never, ever die…
