12. Tastes Like Leopold, Loeb And Acid On The Genitals - With Special Guest PAUL ZOLLO

Melissa is joined by author, singer/songwriter, columnist and photographer PAUL ZOLLO to talk about the infamous case of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, two young men who, in 1924 stunned the city of Chicago and the entire nation when decided that they could commit the perfect murder and proved themselves spectacularly and gruesomely incorrect.  Melissa joins Zollo, a Chicago native who has been fascinated by the story for years, to discuss the deeper aspects of this weird yet spellbinding story of two sociopaths who found each other in the same neighborhood and attending the same schools - and who may have had a more complex relationship than simply teaming to commit a cruel and random murder, which generated the first-ever "Trial of the Century" and transfixed the U.S. and the world.
