Watch out… it’s the KALING!! Learn about this 19th-century Scottish Halloween tradition, and a whole lot more, in this holiday special. We finish last year’s article, and learn about Scottish Halloween divination methods, along with what it’s like to experience Halloween on a trans-oceanic ship. And joining us once again are Pete and Meagan!
