Old Timey Crimey #34: Madame Fahmy - "Bratzels"

Plus, we question whether bigamy is a gateway drug, invent a new (and delicious-sounding) food, and discuss what serial killers and 1900s British lawyers have in common.

Old Timey Crimey #19: The Hex Hollow Murder - "I think they went a bit strong"

This week, we hop back to 1928 in Pennsylvania, where one man's run of horrible luck results in his suspicions that he was hexed. In the end, a man will lose his life and a town will be forever changed. But eventually there's a hayride, so we'll try to take solace in that. 
Also, we learn some fun spells that probably won't cure what ails you, find out Scott's awesome insomnia remedy, and learn a very simple method for escaping a state hospital. And for a palate cleanser, stay tuned for a woman who refused to pollute the earth. To be honest, we kinda can't blame her...

Old Timey Crimey #15: The Sodder Children

Kristy and Scott take a deep dive into the case of the Sodder children and a Christmas house fire that left nothing but questions in the ashes. Along the way, we'll run into some memorable characters, although some are memorable in the worst way--we're looking at you, Fire Chief F.J. Morris. And after we marvel at the lengths parents will go to for their children, Kristy happens upon a theory that ruins Christmas for everyone.
