Stacy and Carol return to their “Start a List” podcast, apologize for inconsistent episodes due to being busy, and plan to be more consistent through fall. Stacy shares hosting a children’s story time at Common Ground Coffee & Books in Lebanon during fall break, reading “Spookley the Square Pumpkin.” They discuss Halloween enthusiasm, decorating, costumes, scary movies, true crime interests, and trick-or-treating logistics and candy favorites. They talk about superstitions and origins of “knock on wood,” broken mirrors, black cats, and other beliefs like not sweeping in the dark and dreaming of losing teeth. Carol describes family stories involving her grandmother’s Bell Witch rocking chair and mentions wanting to visit the Bell Witch Cave and learn how the chair was acquired. They recall childhood fears, razor-blade candy checks, Ouija boards, and “light as a feather, stiff as a board,” then close by promising a new episode next week.

Stacy and Carol return to their “Start a List” show after a few weeks off, catching up on Carol’s new Christmas shop items like vintage quilt stocking door hangers and Stacy’s Alaska cruise with her husband and parents. They joke about frequent tripping and inventing an airbag “rip cord” for falls, and describe seeing a self-driving robotic wheelchair at the Seattle airport. They brainstorm “rules,” including not mocking Southern school closures for snow, not using speakerphone in public, not blasting videos on buses, and giving reassurance before alarming phone calls, then discuss weekend plans, decluttering clothes, and preparing future content.

Carol and Stacy chat casually on their podcast about recent life updates. Carol is frustrated with ongoing bathroom renovations that have left her bedroom cluttered and will require moving items again before painting. Carol describes getting a heavy shower door delivered during driveway paving, deciding she needs a door after problems with a shower curtain, and mentions her new asphalt driveway. Stacy recounts substitute teaching at a new school with no cell service and tornado-designated hallways, plus a heat-related mix-up where students briefly went outside despite a 107 “feels like” temperature. Carol shares assembling a crib but having to remove part of a door frame to fit it, and tells a story about her dad losing keys in the washing machine. They discuss extreme heat, upcoming plans including Alaska travel, dog sitting, work shifts, food in the crockpot, and past porch parties, then thank listeners for 1,000+ downloads.
