Ghoul On Ghoul

Amanda and Sarah explore some unusual lore and a California cryptid. Sarah says no to drugs with a look at connections between cannabis-related superstitions/urban legends and the history of cautionary tales. Amanda takes listeners to the West Coast with a rundown of the Fresno Nightcrawler. Other subjects covered include taste-testing Peep-flavored Pepsi, thirsting for Steve Guttenberg, and cooking babies.  Recommendations: Sarah doubles down on Amanda's previous rec of the 2022 horror film Men.  Sources: SYFY Wire (THE DARK HISTORY BEHIND HANSEL AND GRETEL) Snopes (The Microwaved Baby) Snopes (Did Several Musicians Die with White BIC Lighters in Their Pockets?)
