First off, we are deeply sorry about the unplanned, unannounced and extended hiatus. However, we hope that this extra-long, equally unannounced and unplanned episode can make amends for it.

In this episode, we talk about why we went on hiatus, what our plans are for the future of the podcast, and all about our 2025 Halloween season.

Please accept our apologies for the lack of updates, and let us get you caught up on what's been going on around here.

This Episode Includes:

1. Intro
2. Explaining Our Absence
3. Our 2025 Haunt Visits
4. Our 2025 Haunt Season
5. Conclusions

All in all, this is an extra-large episode you do not want to miss.

Most of the continent is currently under a heat dome. Feels like temperatures are climbing into the 110s and even 120s. It's not just hot, it's dangerously hot.

But that sucks for haunters. Right now is when we want to be working on our builds and other projects. However, being outside for more than a few minutes is a death sentence.

Fortunately, there are still ways to work on your haunt while staying cool. Here are five suggestions to get you started.

This Week's Episode Includes:

1. Intro
2. Housekeeping
3. Work We Did for the Haunt
4. 5 Heat-Safe Ways to Work on Your Haunt
5. Tips for Working in the Heat
6. Conclusions

All in all, this is one episode you do NOT want to miss.
