Pink Party Hats: Circus Elephants

This week, we add to our vault of cursed episodes, we plan No Thought November, Brianne gets her giggles where she can, Melanie refuses to change topics mid-episode, Myrtle doesn’t read the room, and Brianne lets the intrusive thoughts win.Content warnings: extremely graphic and upsetting descriptions of animal suffering and inhumane euthanasia. Also: alcohol, death and injury of humans in animal attacks, very brief reference to catholic sex abuse, children seeing traumatic things.Links:https://www.newspapers.com/image/936790995/?terms=Mary%20the%20elephant&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/797930966/?terms=Mary%20the%20elephant&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/66446388/?terms=Mary%20the%20elephant&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/63294201/?terms=murderous%20mary&match=1https://blueridgecountry.com/archive/favorites/mary-the-elephant/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyke_(elephant)https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/20/science/drunk-elephants-genes.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nRnXMYse2ohttps://www.themoonlitroad.com/murderous-mary-the-elephant/https://www.timesnews.net/news/appalachian-highlands/erwin-historians-recall-story-on-107th-anniversary-of-hanging-of-the-elephant/article_dcdf8033-187a-5818-9ac5-2662fd4ee6dc.htmlhttps://www.newspapers.com/image/346757444/?terms=Tyke%20elephant&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/346423088/?terms=Tyke%20elephant&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/265841427/?terms=Tyke%20elephant&match=1https://www.newspapers.com/image/273872417/?terms=Tyke%20elephant&match=1https://archives.starbulletin.com/1999/03/24/news/whatever.htmlhttps://www.elephants.com/elephantshttps://www.imdb.com/title/tt4254838/
