  • Old Timey Crimey #19: The Hex Hollow Murder - "I think they went a bit strong"

    This week, we hop back to 1928 in Pennsylvania, where one man's run of horrible luck results in his suspicions that he was hexed. In the end, a man will lose his life and a town will be forever changed. But eventually there's a hayride, so we'll try to take solace in that. 

    Also, we learn some fun spells that probably won't cure what ails you, find out Scott's awesome insomnia remedy, and learn a very simple method for escaping a state hospital. And for a palate cleanser, stay tuned for a woman who refused to pollute the earth. To be honest, we kinda can't blame her...

  • Old Timey Crimey #18: Sawney Bean - "It's never over."

    It's cannibalism time...again. This week, Kristy and Scott take a look at Scotland's infamous Sawney Bean clan and their very, very, VERY bad habits. We'll debate whether the legend has any merit--procreation math included!--and talk about cave decor, the Ye Olde Timey Tabloid, and Kristy's new name for her bathroom...inspired by none other than Henry VIII. 

    And while we're at it, Scott does not check Kristy's menarche numbers, and Kristy isn't eating smoothies, bacon, or beans anytime soon. Remember....IT'S NEVER OVER.

  • Old Timey Crimey #16: Henri Désiré Landru and the Frontiers of Madness

    Kristy's back from France just in time to talk about a prolific French killer, Henri Désiré Landru, a reverse black widow who preyed upon the vulnerable.
