This show’s topics are delightfully unsettling! First, you know that weird feeling you used to get when you went into your school at night? Or what about the feeling of walking through an empty mall? There’s a name for the locations that elicit that creepy feeling: Liminal Spaces. And Bethany is sharing some pretty bizarre examples, plus talking about how we view the people who work in those off-putting areas. Then, Kathleen cannot stop researching weird stories from coroners! She’s bringing her favorites to the table, but don’t worry: she’s giving some animal joke palate cleansers to make sure you don’t get too overwhelmed with the weird.
