  • The Cult of the Unknown Tongues | Lucinda Mills Murder | Weird Renown Episode #64

    VIDEO VERSION: https://youtu.be/y9ib1SOFAzs

    In this episode of Weird Renown, I want to discuss a strange church revival in February 1933 in Eastern Kentucky that ended with the death of 72 year old Lucinda Mills. Nine members of her family would be arrested and accused of her murder, to which they advised that Lucinda Mills had been a willing human sacrifice for their cult.

  • Agatha Christie's Notorious and Puzzling Disappearance | Weird Renown Episode #63

    VIDEO VERSION: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bc4NG2azoPM
    [See below for trigger warning!]

    In this episode of Weird Renown, I want to discuss iconic mystery writer, Dame Agatha Christie.
    Guiness World Records credits her with being the best selling fiction writer of all time, and she was made a Dame for her contributions to literature. Her excellent mysteries have been cherished by the world for over 100 years, but Agatha Christie also took part in a mystery of her own. 
    In 1926, her husband asked her for a divorce and then she disappeared from her home in Sunningdale. 
    She was considered a missing person and her disappearance was featured on the front page of the New York Times. Agatha was found almost two weeks later, alive - but she said she had no memory of what had happened to her.
    This episode contains sensitive subject matter pertaining to suicide. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health or self harm, there are resources available online to speak directly with a trained professional or to find local community outreach services.

  • Dr. Croghan's Mammoth Cave Tuberculosis Wing & The Mammoth Cave Mummy | Weird Renown Episode #61

    VIDEO VERSION: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hr0dplcCBx0

    In this episode, we are discussing two more weird stories from Mammoth Cave. First, we take a look at Dr. John Croghan, who theorized that the clean air in Mammoth cave would cure his patients of tuberculosis. He built a wing within the cave for them to stay as part of an experimental treatment.
    Then we will be discussing the Mammoth cave mummy, which was a pre-columbian mummy discovered within the cave who was placed in a glass encasement and began to mold. Experts rallied to rescue the remains, and identified the source of the mold.

  • Body Farms | Forensic Anthropolgy Centers | Weird Renown Episode #60

    In this episode, we are discussing Body Farms. Body farms originated in Tennessee when the first facility was created by William M Bass. A body farm is a piece of property where the decomposition of the human body can be tested in a variety of settings. They use these places to gather scientific information to further aid the efforts of investigating crime scenes. I want to discuss the use of these places and get into the details on where all this started, where some of them are, and what kind of progress has been made as a result of their use.

  • Philosophy of the World by The Shaggs | Weird Renown Episode #59

    VIDEO VERSION: https://youtu.be/1jORaelahas?sub_confirmation=1

    In this episode, we are discussing the 1969 album Philosophy of the World by the Shaggs. The Shaggs are a group of sisters and the band was formed by their father who had been told by a fortune teller (his mother) that he would have daughters who would go on to be in a famous music group. He instructed them to write songs because they were going to be a hit band. The girls created the songs for this album with next-to-no musical training, and it has been regarded as artistically significant in many ways by the outsider music community.

  • The Double Burial of Octavia Hatcher & The fear of being buried alive | Weird Renown Episode #57

    VIDEO VERSION: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCY13N4oA5CRCNhLcwMXqTeA?sub_confirmation=1

    Trigger Warning: This episode discusses topics such as being buried alive and infant death.

    In this episode we will be discussing the case of Octavia Hatcher from Pikeville, Kentucky. The story goes that after the death of her son, Octavia slipped into a deep depression leading to a coma and was pronounced dead. Citizens from the town started to exhibit similar symptoms, but would recover in a few days or weeks time. James Hatcher exhumed his wife to discover, to his horror, that Octavia had been affected by a sleeping sickness and had been buried alive. But is that how the story really goes?
