Dead Talk

One of the biggest questions in true crime is who was the Sommerton man? And also why hasn't this podcast been pulled off air yet? This episode Lucy and Alex discuss the mysterious identity of a speculated spy who turned up dead on a beach in Sommerton, Australia in 1948. His pockets full of cryptic messages that have never been deciphered and his identity never revealed, this man has become one of the most recognisable yet unknown faces in true crime. Was he assassinated? Was it a suicide? Why does Stuart Little make an appearance in this episode? So many questions, so little time.

You think you know the story about Annabelle the doll because you've seen the film? WRONG - you've just seen a terrible horror film. This episode Lucy and Alex delve into the true story about the real Annabelle doll. They discuss the iconic paranormal investigating duo, Ed and Lorraine Warren and how devilish this little doll really was. Do they taunt Annabelle to the point in which they almost invite themselves to be possessed by her themselves? Yes, probably. All rules are off when it comes to this demon, especially for poor Lou (he gets a really shafting by our Annabelle.)

This episode Lucy and Alex discuss the cold case and ominous disappearance of Brian Shaffer. 27 year old medical student Brian strangely vanished after a night out with friends celebrating the start of spring break. But don't worry its not all doom and gloom, this story features a bar that has categorically the best name for a bar ever - THE UGLY TUNA SALOONA! Alex and Lucy contemplate whether the Duolingo Owl deserves to be served a restraining order and be charged with excessive harassment and Lucy finds out some pretty devastating news about her former love and role model, Dog The Bounty Hunter. This episode is a ride, and probably not in a good way.

This week, with the current climate in mind, we decided to focus on a story that highlights the systemic racism that has been prevalent in the criminal system. We are talking about the devastating story of George Stinney, a 14 year old black child who became the youngest person to ever be sentenced to death and executed in the United States. We hope this episode can serve as a point of education and only add our contribution to the discourse of black injustice. We will be linking various donation sites on our social media accounts and sharing informative and important content to help educate us all on this issue that must continue to be discussed.

I know... we're confused too, this week your hosts get philosophical and discuss reincarnation. We discuss the story of the Pollock twins who believed they were the reincarnation of their late siblings who passed in a car accident before they were born... This leads to some (dare I even say it) pretty well rounded discourse around the subject and exploration on both sides of the argument. I mean, don't worry we haven't gone too academic on you, there's still a healthy amount of tripe in this episode varying from whether any WW2 fighter jets in were Boeing 747s and how San Francisco was probably a bottle of poppers in a past life. But what do you think? Is Kirstie from HR delusional for believing that fortune teller who told her she was the Virgin Mary's nail tech in another life? Or do you believe in reincarnation?

We've got a drinking game for you this episode - take a shot every time Lucy mixes up Uncle John and Andrew Borden... Someone's got a P45 coming in the post. This episode your hosts discuss the infamous case surrounding possibly Lesbian Axe Murderer Lizzie Borden! We discuss if the Sylvanian Families toys were really just a cult, the legend and queer icon which is Maggie the Irish Maid and how continental breakfasts at hotels are on par with stripping away basic human rights. And if you don't agree with all three of these statements then why are you listening?

Ooky spooky episode 13! For this ominous episode number we have a ominous story to match. Alex's obsession with topics surrounding houses is starting to border on toxic, however, we'll let it go this time because this story is a kicker! This episode your hosts discuss the mysterious case of 'The Watcher' and a family taunted by a anonymous letter writing obsessor. A large percentage of the episode is side tracked by Lucy and Alex deciding which Desperate Housewife they would be and remembering that MAGCON was a thing...

Don't send this episode to FJ Morris because he probably won't appreciate what Alex and Lucy have to say about him... This episode Lucy and Alex discuss the unbelievable story of the missing Sodders children! 5 kids just disappear in a house fire with no trace they were ever really in the house? Ooky spooky if you ask us. Your hosts attempt and fail to understand the science around fires and gush over the aloof and lustrous private investigator,  CC Tinsley.

Do you dream about having a huge mansion one day? What about if this house was seven stories tall, had over 150 rooms and hallways and stairwells that led to nowhere? Yeah, still sounds fun to be honest. This episode your hosts Lucy and Alex delve into the story of the Winchester Mystery House and the descend into utter chaos which was Sarah Winchester's life, trying to appease ghosts from her husband's past. Alex's cat Socks comes very close to transitioning to a ghost herself a few times and we hear about Alex's real life experience with a ghost, while Lucy tells some long winded story about some date she went on just to reveal she never even saw a ghost, a Dead Talk phenomonen!

Wow, this a long one folks. Alex and Lucy ramble quite extensively but its juicy goss that questionably shouldn't be left in the edit! This episode the two discuss the controversial horror house experience that is McKamey Manor. This American past time has a 40 page waiver that details and lists the forms of torture you must consent to before entering the house. If that doesn't sound sick enough, the owner is even worse!
