Sweet Revenge

Show notes

I’m sure you’ve heard of an eye for an eye, but have you heard about some of the sweetest stories of revenge? Like the one about a man in Colorado that uses a “killdozer” to settle a zoning dispute or another about an Emperor who pickles his wife’s lover? This episode explores unbelievable vengeance seekers who take things maybe a little, well... too far.
