    TSFU: Ep. 154- Murder Mystery in Texas: Dean and Tina Clouse

    Get ready for this wide ride! This week, Fallon tells Ash about the tragic and bizarre saga of Dean and Tina Clouse.

    1978, New Smyrna Beach, Florida —Dean (19) and Tina (15) fall madly in love, get hitched, and have a baby. Then, in 1980, their perfect life takes a dark turn when they move to Texas and suddenly vanish. Their decomposed bodies are found near Houston, murdered in cold blood. Cue the mysterious robed women who returns their car, claiming Dean joined their cult—seriously, what?!?! Decades later, in a shocking twist, genealogical detectives find Holly alive and well in Oklahoma in 2022. Seriously, this story has everything: love, murder, cults - you name it!

    ASH LEARNS THE BIBLE: Genesis Ends- Cowards, Sacrifices, Incest and a Technicolor Dreamcoat

    ASH LEARNS THE BIBLE: Genesis Ends- Cowards, Sacrifices, Incest and a Technicolor Dreamcoat

    We now have FIFTEEN episodes filled with Biblical fun on our Patreon, so we've decided to start sharing the magic. Every month we'll be releasing a past Bible episode here on the regular feed! We've compiled the first 3 episodes of "Ash and Michelle Do the Bible" for your listening pleasure... make sure to listen to those HERE before digging into this episode!

    This week, former co-host Michelle Mosher wraps up Genesis with the following stories, and it's a wild ride:
    Abraham - The CowardIsaac's SacrificeJoseph and the Amazing Technicolor DreamcoatJudah and Tamar
    Join us here on the free feed next month for the first official episode of "Ash Learns the Bible" (remember the first four episodes were called "Ash and Michelle Do the Bible"), or listen to any and all episodes NOW on Patreon.


    Ash started her Biblical journey of learning way back in December 2022 with previous co-host Michelle Mosher (episodes 101-136), in a Patreon exclusive segment called "Ash and Michelle Do the Bible". Michelle had spent many of her teen years in a Pentecostal cult and Ash had never picked up a Bible. But when Michelle got moving and grooving in other areas of life, Ash knew she had to keep quenching her thirst for that Biblical knowledge. Now friend and comedian Kristal Adams continues telling Ash about the Good Word every month on "Ash Learns the Bible", only on Patreon!

    Welcome back to our second episode of Ash Goes Down the Rabbit Hole, we hope you found our first episode on the world of incels, the manosphere and looksmaxxing entertaining and informative.

    This week Ash journeys down the rabbit hole of the hit Netflix show, Baby Reindeer. Donny Dunn (played by Richard Gadd) deals with a woman stalker, while struggling with his sexuality and dealing with repressed grooming and SA trauma. These things did happen to Gadd in real life, but the show is billed as "A TRUE STORY", leading audience members to believe that they could trust most of what they saw on screen. Gadd emphasized that he did all he could to hide the identity of "the real" Martha, Fiona Harvey, as she was a mentally ill victim who'd been dismissed by a careless system. Yet internet sleuths were easily able to identify the real Martha, and the point of the story, the lasting effects of trauma, has been overshadowed by the insane drama.

    TSFU: Ep. 153- Bettie Page: The Rise and Fall of the Queen of Pin-Up

    TSFU: Ep. 153- Bettie Page: The Rise and Fall of the Queen of Pin-Up

    Picture this: a 1950's pinup model in a bikini with jet black hair and short bangs... chances are that even if you don't know who she is, you're picturing the iconic Bettie Page.

    Today we're diving into the fascinating and controversial life of the iconic pin-up queen, and one of Ash's idols, Bettie Page. Ash takes us through her troubled childhood and her rise to fame, becoming the first famous bondage model, pushing boundaries in the world of BDSM photography. Despite facing exploitation and financial struggles, Betty remained unapologetically herself and embraced her sexuality. Though Bettie didn't continue through life without her struggles, as she later battled with mental health issues that led to run-ins with the law and time spent in psychiatric facilities. The gals also discuss her mysterious disappearance from the public eye and why Bettie remains a beloved icon to this day.
