Welcome to The Phenomena Podcast with Augusta Chapman! Each episode, Augusta (comedian, writer) and Eva (paranormalist, digital culture enthusiast) talk about ghosts and their role in American culture, media, and sociality -- well, we used to. Now we kind of just talk about any phenomenon, haunted or otherwise, that is fascinating us at the moment. Augusta and Eva (used to) use their background in anthropology to research and discern the meaning and patterns of apparitions, hauntings, and legends; now we use it to analyze all sorts of phenomena.

Welcome to the first of our snack miniseries! We've been keeping very busy with our live shows (thank you to all who attend, we treasure you) but we still want to bring some fun discussions to the RSS feed for our long-distance fans. We will be exploring a variety of topics that relate to previous episodes and live shows, but are not necessarily paranormal. Today, we're talking about the thriving Instagram community of #bjdsales!
