147: OBITCH you can stand under our umbrella...
Geoffs, have you or someone you know been injured by an umbrella? Statistically speaking….probably! Spencer will explain. Afterwards Madison is ditching the victorian era to tell us a crazy tale from the Georgian era that’ll have you screaming. We’ve got an obituary for somebody who met a terrible demise, and one for a gal who got married out of convenience, and of course, we didn’t forget, we’ve got some dumb.ass.criminalllllls!
