Morbid

What a story this is, guys. Lori Vallow's saga is still going on and we seem to be no closer to answers than where it all started. In Part 2 of this crazy tale, we meet her husband Chad, we hear about his shady past and we wonder where the hell her children Tylee and JJ could be. Why is it that people around this couple tend to die or disappear? Is it bad luck or is a death cult? The questions keep piling up while the answer pile stays thin. Hopefully we will be able to update this episode soon with some good news or at least some closure. Step into Lori Vallow's world on mayhem, but don't say we didn't warn you.

Well Alaina can't do it. She can't stay mini and she won't! Honestly, this was supposed to be a real mini but then I found another source and things got wild. Thanks for appreciating my lack of brevity on the regular, weirdos.



This case is WILD. Zach Bowen and Addie Hall were two 20-somethings experiencing a whirlwind romance in New Orleans in the early 00s. Both had a free spirit way about them, they loved fiercely and they seemed to carve out a niche as the king and queen of the French Quarter misfits. But they both had a dark side and we all know everything done in the dark comes to the light eventually. This murder/suicide has twists, turns, romance, violence and worst of all, a truly tragic end for two people who could have lived, had they realized they needed to do that apart.

This is a very recent and ongoing case that has baffled almost everyone who has heard of it. Lori Vallow made headlines in the end of 2019, when her two children, 17 year old Tylee and 8 year old JJ disappeared, seemingly into thin air. With reports circulating that she told witnesses stories like her children were long dead or staying with relatives who confirmed they were not, things look like they are going from bad to worse. But where are Tylee and JJ? Who is Lori Vallow and why has death and destruction followed her for years? In Part 1, Ash takes us through Lori Vallow's life, as well as her first 4 marriage and a possible murder.

Maria Elena Milagro De Hoyos, known as Elena, walked into a Key West hospital suffering from a fatal infection of tuberculosis. Instead of a cure, she found a radiologist named Karl Tanzler who instantly became obsessed with her. Although the affections were one sided, when Elena passed away a couple of months later, Karl just couldn't let his soulmate go. What he did next is unthinkable, and he never really paid a price for it.

Join Ash, Alaina and special guest, comedian Rachel O'brien, as we dig deep into Karl's crazy world.

Guys, this case has plagued us for years. It is one of those cases that provides more questions than it does answers.

January 10, 2013, 17 year old Kendrick Johnson was found dead, rolled up in a wrestling mat in his high school gym. Initially, the case was quickly ruled a tragic, freak accident but after three autopsies, several false leads and a myriad of unanswered questions, Kendrick's family is no closer to finding out the truth about what happened to their son on that winter day in Georgia. Did Kendrick accidentally fall into a fatally inverted position in the rolled up mat? Or did someone put him there?

Finally, we have reached the conclusion of John Wayne Gacy's mad world. Honestly, this dude is a pig and we are so glad to be out of his headspace. In this episode, we discuss how he got caught, his insane confessions and his trial and subsequent imprisonment until his early death. Enjoy and make sure you hydrate. I feel like he's so gross, you should hydrate.

Tonight we brought in the big guns to spook us right the hell out. Our beloved Em Schulz from And That's Why We Drink joins us as we tell a trio of spooky ghost stories revolving around some seriously haunted locales in America. There are boys with no eyes, Lucy who won't take your shit and a possibly handsome vintage gentleman who maybe stands at the foot of your bed. Come on it, it's an awesome nightmare in here.

Tonight we continue our deep dive into the damp, smelly and super greasy world of John Wayne Gacy. Tonight's episode focuses on the abductions, the assaults and the murders that took place over a 6 year period in the mid to late 70s. This pig took the lives of 33 young, teenage boys and he did it in some of the most disturbing ways imaginable.

Fair warning, there are some descriptions and mentioning of sexual assault and rape.
