034 — Nevada | Missing: Jean Moore
Schooooool’s out for summer! That means we’re back, and things are about to get weird. This week, we’re heading to Nevada, arguably the most debaucherous state in the nation. Sure, most of it is covered in sand, but it’s also home to Sin City — and we all know that what happens in Vegas stays in...

-
029 — Wacky Idaho Headlines
If there’s one thing we learned about Idaho this week, it’s that they have a lot of giant packages. Not like that, you sicko. We’re talking about humans being mailed, trash bags full of pot, and beavers in boxes (again, not like that). Join us as we meet a family with, shall we say, an…

more -
018 — Washington | Teresa Butz & Jennifer Hopper
Grazanon, folks! We’re mixing it up this week and traveling from the east coast alllll the way over to the west coast. Or as Taylor would say, from the upper right to the upper left. Tune in to hear Shauna give us the down low on Washington state, including a volcanic eruption, a clip-art flag…
more -
017 — Wacky New York Headlines
What do a sexy Obama mannequin and an angry beaver have in common? Honestly, nothing, except for that fact that we talk about them both in this episode. Join us as we wrap up our tour of the Empire State with some strange headlines that (fingers crossed) you’ll only find in New York. Sorry, folks…

-
014 — New York | The Olympic Conspiracy
This week, we’re folding our pizza and getting in an Empire State of Mind in New York, baby! First, Shauna gives us some background and fun facts about NY — but if we’re being honest, we mostly just lose our goddamn minds over the price of New York City real estate. Then, Taylor dives (heh) deep...

more -
010 — Ohio Pt. 2 | The Reincarnation of Sandra Jean Jenkins
