Episode 119: The Bronco Chase / The Giant Penguin Hoax
Spring has sprung, Queerdos! Frolic amongst the plants and flowers in the garden of stories with us, won't you? Sniff them--they're pungent! First, in our True Crime Story, Edie shares the story of one very slow freeway chase that changed American media (for the worse) forever. Next, in our Spoopy Tale, Miss brings us a giant penguin who was very real and lived in Florida and was not a hoax! So pour a glass of OJ, check the ground for inexplicable footprints, and get ready for this week's show. Let's dive in!
