Happy Half Hour (8/21/23)

In this Happy Half Hour, we‘re chatting about two half-siblings on a search for the father they never knew, a detective investigating one murdered girl and one missing girl, a comedic examination of the joys of reading and eating, and a sinister and gothic modern fantasy about a house with supernatural secrets.
