What if your significant other or child suddenly started acting differently with no explanation? Sure, t could be explained away by any number of reasonable circumstances. Or, they could be a Changeling. This week, Hannah tells Katy the story of Bridget Cleary, a lively, independent young woman in late 19th century Ireland, whose husband believed she had been stolen away by Fairies, and replaced by a Changeling. The girls talk Irish folklore, Irish names, all things Fairies, Catholicism, and more!

So pour your drinks, cozy up (and pretend the weather is warm), and join us for this tragic tale of Irish Lore!
