Although the world seems to be one giant disaster right now (thanks, 2020), Taylor and Jenni are still super excited about telling you some of their favorite disasters. Taylor gives us the low down on the Lucasville Prison Riot while Jenni sheds light on the most famous of all plagues - the Black Death. Hope you have some time to have the crap scared out of you, because this one is a doozy!

In this truly terrible episode of A Little Bit Grim, Jenni tells us all about the fun loving, free spirited, alien cult of Raelism and Taylor gives you A BIG FAT TRIGGER WARNING for her tale of Roch Theriault and the Ant Hill Kids. Seriously, if you don't like your cults dark af please stop listening after Jenni's story - Taylor's gets a little (LOT) bit grim. 

We are not black, but we see you. We are not black, but we hear you. We are not black, but we mourn with you. #blacklivesmatter

Taylor and Jenni recorded this episode last week before the protests, which is why you don't hear them talk about current events. 

In this episode Taylor covers the unlikely story of the "death" of Avril Lavigne and Jenni discusses Project Preserving Destiny, a wild tale of aliens and government cover ups. Did Avril die in 2003 and get replaced by a body double? Is the government covering up knowledge of aliens (yes - obviously). 

As always, there are twists, turns, and sharp lefts and mediocre research. Welcome to A Little Bit Grim!

Stay safe out there, yall.

Taylor and Jenni have very different tales to tell today, but both folklores have similar themes! Taylor gives us a short peek into the tale of Persephone, the goddess of the Spring and Summer and also the Underworld. She realizes her attraction to the bad boys in a shocking turn of events. Jenni *finally* tells us the history of Lilith and Taylor makes her eyes bigger in order to hear better. Once again they try to relate these old af tales to modern film, tv, and books in a desperate attempt of understanding the massive implications of these two beautiful and terrifying deities. 

Settle in, buckle up, grab yourself a beverage and get ready for some twists, turns, and hard lefts. This week, Jenni thought she would do a little swamp murder and uncovered a truly terrible case involving a small town that will do anything to protect its own. We're talking about the Jeff Davis 8 or the Jennings 8. Taylor goes down a deep rabbit hole and tells the incredibly heartbreaking story of the Bathtub Killers of Canada which makes Jenni v uncomfy. It's more than a little grim.  

As we continue to endure quarantine, Jenni and Taylor decide it would be a good idea to scare the bejeesus out of each other with spooky ghost stuff. Taylor shows that she is a type-A nerd while she tells the story of the Congress Plaza Hotel in the Windy City. Of course, Jenni talks about demons and the uber scary ghosts and entities that haunt the Ancient Ram's Inn. 

In this episode of A Little Bit Grim, Jenni and Taylor finally remember to A) introduce themselves, B) remind you that Donut is the fat floof cat mascot of the podcast and he is here to stay, and C) tell you the name of the show! Oh! And they talk about some truly horrifying events such as the Tiger mauling at the San Francisco Zoo and the Tri-State Tornado. They encourage you to immediately watch Jurassic Park and Twister after listening to this episode. Happy Nightmare Fuel, y'all.
