Nerds - do you like dark comedy with a touch of dark romance? What are your thoughts on cookies and cream ice cream? This week, we start our read along of The Ruinous Love Trilogy with Butcher & Blackbird, prologue - chapter 5! Listen in to this week’s podcast episode where we discuss the following: -What do you know about serial unaliver profiling? -The media has assigned some quite silly monikers to serial unalivers, and they aren’t as cool as the nickname Blackbird, trust us. -Have you heard of any real life vigilantes? Some are sweet, and others, well, are definitely not. Visit Ournerdiestthing.com for this week’s themed cocktail, named “The Blackbird”.
