Show notes

It’s Episode 484 and we’re being haunted by our past selves and future ghosts. Today Em takes us to Illinois for their Part Two on the haunted Egyptian Theatres. Then Christine covers the frustrating case of Athalia Ponsell Lindsley and Francis Bemis, which remains unsolved to this day. And you all better lookout when we get our blackbelts in guitar and jiu-jitsu… and that’s why we drink!
