We're back. Charles gets hazelcucked, Zach gets a cat, and we both try to be happy.

This week! Amelia Earhart's man & manager, George P. Putnam, an extremely competent promoter who made it possible for Amelia to turn her love of aviation into a full-blown airborne career. That is, until she completes her mission from the U.S. government by taking a dive in the Marshall Islands. It's all in there.

We also read Amelia's pre-marriage letter to George, which reveals their partnership may have been open. Lots of fun stuff in this one.

A Christmas miracle! We're at The Stand for a Christmas catchup, and Charles does most of the heavy lifting. Zach experiences a personal Y2k, Charles bombs in Long Island, and we eat the most disgusting chip known to man.

Zach and Charles are back with another guest - comedian Maggie Lalley! - to cover our most bizarre and mysterious subject yet, Sarah Lockwood Winchester, wife of William Writ Winchester and heiress to the fortune made by the sale of the Winchester Repeating Rifle. A self-taught architect, Sarah bought an 8-room farmhouse once basically her entire family had died, and she transformed it into the bewildering, beautiful ~700 room mansion that stands today as the Winchester Mystery House. There's a lot of crock surrounding why she built it, and we clear that right up. 

Featuring: crackpot mediums, genetically-transmitted ghosts, door-to-door rollercoaster salesmen, Girl Yale, and more

If you're in NYC Dec 8th, go see Maggie's one woman musical show, Sex Witch that chronicles a hilarious tale of witchery and sexery.

Overshadowed welcomes its first guests: Nathan and Nicholas Hopping. This episode features heavily cruel & unusual sibling-torture tactics, like Nick's headbutting phase, throwing up on younger brothers, and "ball-hands". As you listen to this week's ep, something to think about is whether all Nathan's problems come from the fact he's actually a girl. 

Check out Nick and Nathan's podcast, Hoppothetically, the closest a pod can come to a true Socratic dialogue. Assuming Socrates was obsessed with c*m.  Which he was.

New stories at the end: 

Comedians Zach and Charles get into the wild life of Alec Baldwin's younger brother, Stephen Baldwin, who threw away a career of small parts in good movies, and big parts in bad ones, to make exclusively Christian cinema that plunged him into debt. We talk movies (list below), skateboarding with Jesus, and an ALLEGED affair with his massage therapist during which he'd he disguise himself as a homeless man.  (fixed audio.)

(Movies we cover: The Usual Suspects, Biodome, Half-Baked, Posse, 8 Seconds, Run, Livin' It, and an honorable mention for the film that we couldn't find: "F!&$ the Disabled"). 

Clockin' in! The boys are back at The Stand, and this week, we sideline the siblings to catch up on each others' lives, including Zach's dancing and the loved ones it's driven away, a dying seagull, and the psychic who told Charles he should quit comedy. 

It’s a fun-fact packed ep this week as Charles and Zach cover the history of drinking in the United States, Prohibition and some of the nutsos associated with it, and, of course, the first of Al Capone’s brothers, who served as the strong-man of Cicero: Salvatore "Frank" Capone.

We cover giving booze to babies, a teetotaling ax-wielding woman on a holy mission to destroy saloons, a bourbon manufacturer who killed his wife, and the most crooked election in American history (thanks to Frankie Capone.)

Patreon ep will be released about Al Capone at some point in time. But there's a lot of good stuff there RIGHT NOW
