Today we are sharing the story of Alexander Pearce, an Irish-born man who in the early 1800s was sentenced to serve seven years in a penal colony in what is now Tasmania for stealing six pairs of shoes.

He escaped with a few other prisoners into the treacherous lands off of Sarah Island. He was the only one that would survive. When he was caught, he told a story of betrayal and cannibalism that was so shocking they thought he was making it up.

This week we are bringing you the short but gruesome story of Italian serial killer, Leonarda Cianciulli. She was known as The Soap-Maker of Correggio because she would use the body parts of her 3 victims for soap and teacakes, which she then gifted to her friends and family without their knowledge of the ingredients.

NOTE: This was our first time recording remotely because Dina was feeling a bit under the weather, plus winter has arrived here making the roads a bit sketchy, so if you notice a difference in audio quality that's why. We appreciate your understanding!
