Ep.19 The Bandit Who Wouldn’t Give Up

Thanks for holding tight, listeners! After a week off, we’re back and immediately causing emotional damage by discussing the tragic, and frankly preventable death of Charlotte the Groundhog. But the main event this week is the Bandit Who Wouldn’t Give Up: Elmer McCurdy. His life was chaotic enough, but the real story begins after he dies. Because Elmer didn’t just leave a legacy… he left a corpse that went on a decades‑long tour of carnivals, sideshows, movie sets, and haunted attractions. This is the strangest post‑mortem career in American history. Want to connect? Check us out on Instagram @should_you_need_us_podcast or email us at [email protected]
