About The Coven

Ashley is a mouthy broad with a lot of opinions, especially about the horror genre which she was introduced to inappropriately but deliciously early in life.

As someone whose personality was built around Anne Rice and her Vampires for the entirety of her teen years, Ashley relishes her weekly "Conversation" with Joel and still can't believe anyone else is along for the ride. Ashley spends most of her time with her husband Brett, who is literally the best ever. She can frequently be found in a comfy nest in the corner of the couch under a fuzzy blanket and a pile of pets. And she can be lured out of the house weekly to perform with Improv Little Rock!

Joel brings almost two decades of professional podcasting expertise to the table as the owner of ProPodcastingServices.com.

He ensures that every episode sounds as pristine as a performance at the Théâtre des Vampires. Beyond his technical wizardry, Joel provides thoughtful counter-perspectives, grounded analysis, and a shared love for the gothic drama that defines the Anne Rice universe. Married to his Honeybun, super proud of the whole Sharpton Six, and probably wearing headphones right now, Joel is excited to welcome you to the Coven, and the Devil's Road!
