This week, we talk about a man who was maybe a nobleman or maybe not? Probably not. Almost definitely not. But he sure seemed to think so!
Plus, the best deformations....whaaat? Crikey Mikey, and some wikipedia translations.
Come see us on FB, Insta, or Twitter, and tell us if you think The Claimant was the real deal.

This week, we look at the Bluebeardess, "Flypaper Lyda" Trueblood, who used ham as a seduction tool...as one does. We'll talk about her many marriages (murders), her extensive travels (escapes), and maybe even solve the mystery of her last husband.
Comes see us on FB, Insta, or Twitter. Say hi or just tell us what you think about the Hal/Albert theory.
And remember...watch out for the apple pie.
Also, happy 10,000 downloads and thanks so much for all your support this past year!

This week, we delve into the fascinating life and premature death of Elijah Parish Lovejoy, a man whose belief in doing the right thing was so strong, it made him a martyr.
Plus: the first underwater newspaper, the world's tallest man, and supremely ironic profession names!

A little something from the "Forgotten Archives" this week--an episode recorded nearly a year ago, in late April 2019, and never published. It's a trip back to simpler times, and also a horrific axe murder.
Come say hi on our social media: Insta, FB, Twitter.
