Introducing: CONSPIRACY THEORIES, CULTS, AND CRIMES

It's episode 392 and we're distracted by the stars in your eyes! First Em takes us to the Irma Hotel in Cody, Wyoming, but don't think they didn't do some deep dives on wild west ghosts in general and even potentially found their long-dead soul mate. Then Christine covers the frightening and infuriating case of the disappearance of Heather Teague. And do you know a dog named Noodle who went to Emerson College? ...and that's why we drink!  Check out Christine's Etsy shop here!https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheXtineFiles We're all so, so grateful to everyone who bought a bumper sticker (and so sorry for the folks who only got thank you notes - they should have all been fixed by now). Your purchases made a donation of $3500 to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund possible! https://www.pcrf.net Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Welcome to episode 388, where we're screaming inside! This is the gossip episode; first we go deeper than even we usually go into our anxieties about adulting and the process of writing an entirely new live show, then Em brings us the salatious hauntings of Cock Lane (can someone please tell us why that's funny?), and lastly Christine covers a story full of sad, terrible gossip in the story of Suzanne Sevakis (part one, tune in next week for part two).

It's episode 387 and should we pause?? We might be having some technical difficulties but that also might be next week's episode, we're not sure because we're releasing episodes out of order! This week Em covers something in Christine's neck of the woods in the story of the Old Licking County Jail. Then Christine gives us a sneak peek into the new book with the stories of the murders (and a bonus ghost) from the Claypool Hotel in Indianapolis. And how the fuck does anyone get a turtle? Not like judgement wise, just logistically, we don't even know how to call the city... and that's why we drink!
