TW: Murder, racism, war, mention of rape

Welcome back, Weirdos and WATCH OUT FOR VOORHEES!! it's another Friday the 13th episode!

Every time we get together we chat about something WEIRD and this week is chock-full of crazy. Lauren starts us off by reminding us the reason for the season-- the season of course being Friday the 13th and the reason being FEAR. Lauren breaks down some of the WORST most horrible horrific things to have ever occurred on Friday the 13th - just to get our blood flowing. Then Ashley comes in with a WHOPPER of a CONSPIRACY THEORY!! Did you know that some people believe that the reason the United States invaded Iraq in 2003 was because they were attempting to reverse engineer alien technology and they knew that there was information hidden in ancient sumerian texts & artifacts that held the secrets they were missing? SOUNDS NUTS but hear us out-- there might be something to this one. Then Lauren finishes off strong with a WHERE IN THE WORLD IS KEEP IT WEIRD and a trip to the Wisconsin Dells. What is a dell you ask? Nobody knows. We talk about water parks, haunted saloons, creepy TCBYs, clown museums, strange archeological finds and more. Long live the dells!
