In this episode, Kate and Emily gather round for story time again. This time, Kate talks briefly about the history of Black and African American country music, cowboys, the great west migration, and the amazing African American women of the Wild West — specifically renown chef and caterer Abby Fisher, who wrote the 2nd oldest African American cookbook. Then Emily goes briefly over the vast folklore of foxes within Japanese culture, or kitsune, and their relationship with the Shinto god Inari. And then Emily pulls a card from her Jane Austen tarot playing deck.
