OBITCH chaos in toyland... Jan 04, 2024

Show notes

Hello Geoffs! This week Spencer was in the Holiday spirit, breaking down some toys you should absolutely never have under the tree or there might just be some deadly consequences. But first, Madison is giving us the gift of patents for some pretty macabre inventions. We’ve got an obituary for the worst Christmas ever, and one that left us with some questions. We’ve also, of course, got some dumb.ass.criminallllllls!

OBITCH this one's for the dolls... Dec 21, 2023

Show notes

Buckle up Geoffs because this week we’re getting into the wild world of doll burials. From posthumous weddings, corpse trafficking, and well…some stuff we can’t say here or we’ll get banned probably. We’ve got an obituary that had us laughing in our coffins, and one for a cool cowboy. Don’t worry, we’ve also got some dumb.ass.criminallllllls let’s get into it!
