Old Timey Crimey #27: Legs Diamond - "Kidney Sapphire at the Hotsy Totsy"
Friday Sep 20, 2019
Friday Sep 20, 2019
Ya just can't kill 'im, seeee?
Or maybe you can, but it'll take a LOT of attempts. Join us this week for a trip to old timey gangster land, where we follow Legs Diamond on his wild career of bootlegging, carousing with showgirls, and getting shot. Many times. SO many times.
Along the way, of course we'll have gangster voices galore, along with a delightful exploration of gang names. And a discussion of a mother-daughter video (soon to be posted on our social media!) that will leave you needing about seven showers.
Don't forget to give us a five star review on Apple Podcasts, where you can tell us your body part + gemstone gangster name.
Also, follow us here on Podbean, Stitcher, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. While you're at it, hit us up on our FB group or Twitter to talk Old Timey Crime. Thanks for listening, and if someone shoots you, be like Legs and survive...most of the time.

Old Timey Crimey #25: Albert Fish Part 1 - "We're so sorry"
Friday Sep 06, 2019
Friday Sep 06, 2019
Scott and Kristy take a trip through Traumatown as they take a look at the infamous Albert Fish, a man to whom few proclivities were too extreme.
We'll talk about some truly gruesome stuff, all while wondering: Why don't people's voices ever tell them to do GOOD things?!

*Scott misspoke during the episode and attributed his information to the wrong podcast, which explains the disparity between what we said and what you see here.
