Rosé & Readings is our monthly Bonus Banter special where the spirits are poured and the séance circle is always open. Each episode features listener-submitted hauntings in Tales from the Shadows, chaotic tarot pulls, EVP guessing games, and the occasional spectral guest or spooky expert in our Shadow Chats segment.
Every month, our listeners (aka Shadowlings) submit their favorite rosé recs, and our ghostly mascot PlancheTina selects one for the hosts to sip, and ruthlessly review, as they spill secrets, share personal ghost stories, and maybe accidentally summon something.
Check out our latest Bonus Banter episodes below and follow for more sips, secrets, and supernatural side quests.
