Episode 132: Cassie L. Chadwick, Queen of Ohio / The Night Satan Came to Texas

We've made it to yet another Wednesday, Queerdos! And they'll keep on coming until the heat death of the universe. So let's pass the time with stories! First, in our True Crime Story, Miss teaches us about a turn-of-the-century con woman who could be anyone she wanted to be--including the secret daughter of America's richest man. Next, in our Spoopy Tale, Kevin tells us about Satan's Storm in Kopperl, Texas. Was it the work of our father, the Devil? Or was it a dastardly doing of our arch-nemesis, Science?! So practice those signatures, get down into the storm cellar, and settle in for this week's show. Let's dive in!
