Today's creepy tales start off with Jen's account of George Joseph Smith, and his rather ominously named "brides in the bath". Don't listen to this one before your bath! Then Fraser takes us inside a 1970's social experiment titled The Rosenhan Experiment, with a bit of a twist at the end. For our cocktail, we are embracing the  fall season with a nice Brandy Alexander. Pour yourself one and join us!
