OK February babies. We didn't forget you, just got a little overwhelmed with other things but we did record an amazingly fun episode about Amethyst.

In this episode, we chat about why amethysts are purple, what power the Ancient Greeks thought they possessed and what kind of purple cocktails we came up with.

So grab something to sip on and come and learn with us.
