Old Timey Crimey #38: Cullen Baker - "You Bottled Spider"

This week, we talk about Cullen Baker, a man who rarely met a problem he couldn't solve by shooting it. We'll discuss his various horrifying exploits through the Civil War and beyond, his tendency to marry Marthas, and the most Mark Twain day of your life.

Plus, old timey real dolls, Shakespearean insults, and a country fair that defies basic human decency by celebrating a terrible, terrible racist.

Don't forget about our Patreon, where you can get OTC business cards, access to bonus Old Tiny Crimeys, and exclusive early access to new full eps!

You'll be our heroes if you give us a 5-star review! You can 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, Twitter, Reddit, or Insta to talk Old Timey Crime.

And remember, don't be a standard issue douchebag who turns into a horrible human being.
