The biggest outbreak of yellow fever in Manhattan's history, so many people to bury that gravediggers can't keep count, and all of it on an island with limited space... what could go wrong? This week the ONUC gals talk about just how many bodies were buried in 2.5 acres at one time (hint: way more than you think), Kayla gives you a science lesson and tells you what not to Google when you're researching true crime, hear Leah's Halloween snack recipe, and Kayla's Halloween drink recipe.

Have you or someone you love ever skipped school? Did your parents think you were possessed by demons as a child? Most importantly, did you go on a multi state murder spree? If so, you could be entitled to compensation. Not really. But, it would make you 'America's First Public Enemy No. 1' AKA Samuel Green. 

This week the ONUC gals discuss the psychology of the frontal lobe (Kayla's favorite topic), the ongoing debate of nature vs. nurture, and the unfortunate early life of Samuel Green which led to him infamously earning the title of 'Public Enemy No. 1'.

How many US Navy ships are missing or presumed lost? Where they all swept away by a hurricane? Or is there something much more mysterious to blame?

This week the ONUC gals discuss the disappearance of the USS Epervier. Join them as they dive deep (get it? dive. deep.) into the US Navy, the disappearance of four other US Navy ships before the USS Epervier, and then get lost (literally and figuratively) in what some call the Hoodoo Sea, the Limbo of the Lost, The Devil's Triangle, or as you may know it... The Bermuda Triangle.

Thank you to all of our service persons and families who are a part (and not a part) of the ONUC family . Whether you serve for the United States or for your home country, we admire your bravery and appreciate you for your sacrifice to serve and protect.
