Old Timey Crimey #136: France‘s Teen Werewolf - “Indecent Headdress”

Friday Oct 22, 2021

Jean Grenier, a teen boy in 17th century France, had a troubled home life. When he left home to try to survive on his own, no one could have guessed he'd make history as the youngest person ever convicted of lycanthropy.  Also, Amber explains how a headdress can be indecent, and we discuss the devil's proclivities.  Visit/support/contact us: Patreon  Facebook  Instagram Twitter MERCH Amazon Wishlist Email: oldtimeycrimey@gmail.com Check out our sponsors Why Do We Say That?

Friday Oct 01, 2021

Spookyween commences with an examination of dolls that just so happen to be surrounded by weird activity. It's a total coincidence, clearly.

Old Timey Crimey #22: Louis Le Prince - "The More You Don't Know"

Friday Aug 16, 2019

Kristy and Scott take a look at the mysterious case of Louis Le Prince, a man with fabulous facial hair and a true passion for invention. He should have become one of the top names in the annals of innovation, but fate--or maybe Thomas Edison--got in the way. We'll look at the case and the four main theories that try to explain just what happened to this historical genius.  Don't miss Kristy's Edison Elephant Outrage, Scott's incredible obliteration of supposed new evidence in the case, and some exclamation point guidelines.  You'll be the best gumshoe ever if you leave us a 5-star review on iTunes. And if you'd like to control our fates, simply go to our Amazon wishlist and purchase a book for a future "Deep Dive" to pick a future episode topic.  Don't forget to follow us here on Podbean, Stitcher, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts, and hit us up on our FB group or Twitter to talk Old Timey Crime.
