Better buckle in this week as Emma takes us back to the Jazz Age and the terrifying reign of the Axeman of New Orleans. Was it a demon who just liked to “jazz it out”? Or was it a vendetta against all Italians? Whatever it was, we hope it never makes its way back out of hell again. The train of thought gets derailed a few times because, ya know, murder is hard to listen to, but we hope you enjoy the ride. So choot, choot, mother truckers; let's dive right in.
