In this spellbinding episode of #RockStarLife: Coffee Break, I beam down to Carroll County, Maryland, on a rainy December day to chat with the incredible Jessi Hardesty, head of Carroll Community College’s art department and curator of the Phantom Narratives IV exhibition, where my art was featured this fall.

We dive into Jessi’s hauntingly beautiful creations—like wood-carved Ouija boards and witchy tapestries—her ghostly childhood experiences in North Carroll County, and why Appalachia is the most magical part of the country. As former 90s/00s goth kids who are Gemini's, we also bond over goth movies, the explosion of paranormal tourism in places like Salem, MA, and the wave of spooky media that ruled Halloween. Plus, I share my unfiltered take on psychic Sylvia Browne and throw in some cave-diving banter for good measure.

From paranormal art to haunted nostalgia, this episode is a deep dive into spooky creativity and ghostly vibes. 🎧 Tune in now!
