The 3rd Annual Afternoonified Bracket of Nonsense:...

Afternoonified ·

2025/04/02

It's a tradition because we've done it three times! This year Emily has scoured the internet and the history books for the who's who of Vampires, both fictional and... real. They're not fighting, just vibing and we're going to decide once and for all if Count Orlock's rizz is enough to negate his smell. Oh yeah, we also brought our resident Pop Culture Vampire Nerd Expert, Sadie on to help us. It's great! Find out more at http://getafternoonified.com

Mini: Short King Hall of Fame

Afternoonified ·

2025/02/26

It's truly amazing the thing men are able to accomplish instead of just talking about their feelings. Take Edward Leedskalnin, for instance. He got dumped, left the old country and built a sprawling limestone castle about it. Find out more at http://getafternoonified.com
