Strange Country Ep. 166: Vampire Cult Killings

This Strange Country episode doesn't suck. And that is the solid comedy gold to expect as you listen to Beth and Kelly try not to talk about the election that hasn't happened as they recorded but has happened when this airs. The cortisol is definitely traipsing through their 60,000 mile-long circulatory systems. Oh, and vampires, yes, they're talking about bloodsuckers who also can suck your energy away. Like this election. Theme music: Big White Lie by A Cast of Thousands Cite your sources or I suck your blood: Browning, John Edgar. "Conversations with Real Vampires."
