In this week's episode, Sandra answers the question: Why do witches ride brooms? It turns out that the history of the witch's broom started back in 1453 when Guillaume Edelin who was a priest from Saint-Germain-en- Laye near Paris confessed to riding a broom. There are those that believe that the witch's broom is also connected to pagan fertility rituals, and because women would use brooms to signal to others that they were away from their homes. They would either place them in the fireplace or outside their door. Regardless of how the idea started, it is no secret that today when you ask someone to think of an image of a witch, they almost always have a broom.

Then, Danielle discusses Ruby Ridge. A shooting in Idaho between the U.S. Federal government and the Weaver family resulted in several deaths considered unnecessary.
