Our time off went a little longer than planned, but, we're back! And, we're re-visiting and oldie but a goodie - The Detroit Occult Murders (ep.4) with a slightly deeper dive. What happened to Benny Evangelist and his family? Who are the suspects? And what motives may they have had?
Stick around after to hear a synopsis of the first few chapters of Benny's self-published book: "The Oldest History of the World."

This week Jess and Alex briefly chat about a few pieces of housekeeping. Then Jess does a double header and brings two stories for the dogs (can't resist the chance for a pun.) First up she tells Alex about Dog Lady Island just off the coast of Monroe, MI. How many uses has the island had? Who was left on the island for decades alone? And what failed ventures have been there? Next up is the legend that is Dogman, Michigan's own cryptid. When did the legend start? What happened on the radio to make it more well known? And was a dogman caught on film? Tune in to find out!

AND - Check out Weiss Distilling Co in Clawson, MI (especially before the end of October to have one of the cocktails named after a few stories we've covered!)
