Show Notes

It’s our 100th episode!!!

Today, we’re diving into the wild, witchy life of Mary Bliss Parsons—a woman from 17th-century Massachusetts who really knew how to stir the cauldron. She was a successful landowner, a savvy businesswoman, and, oh yeah… allegedly a witch. (Because apparently, being good at stuff was suspicious back then.)

Mary’s life had it all: petty neighbor drama, courtroom chaos, and enough witchcraft accusations to make Salem look like amateur hour. So grab your broomsticks and buckle up—this one’s got spells, scandal, and the ultimate case of “mind your business, neighbor.” ✨
