Send a text Pour a drink, lock your doors, and lower your moral standards — because the Podcats were absolutely hammered recording this one, and Erica chose this to finally confess her undying love for Ed Gein. (Yes… that Ed Gein. We’re concerned too.) In this episode, Jess, Erica, Traci, and special guest Julian dive headfirst into the dark, gruesome, and occasionally ridiculous world of Ed Gein — the real-life inspiration behind Psycho, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Silence of the Lambs. From Netflix’s Monster: The Ed Gein Story to the real history behind Plainfield’s creepiest man, we’re breaking down what’s real, what’s Hollywood nonsense, and what’s just straight-up nightmare fuel. 🍸 What We’re Drinking “The Grave Digger Espresso Martini” — because nothing pairs better with grave-robbing and nipple belts than vodka, espresso, and questionable decision-making. 🔥 What’s Inside: The actual story of Ed Gein — domineering moms, grave-robbing, and why he never had a girlfriend (shocking).Fact vs. Fiction from the Netflix series (spoiler: they made up a lot).The truly horrifying things found in his house (yes… the nipple belt).How Gein became the blueprint for every horror villain you’ve ever loved.The psychology behind one of America’s weirdest, most disturbing criminals.And of course — a drunk, chaotic round of F*, Marry, Kill. Choices were: Ed Gein, Jeffrey Dahmer or John Wayne Gacy. ✨ Guest Alert Tom Cat Julian aka Party After Five joins the Podcats to offer both insight and unhinged commentary. He survived. Mostly. 💀 Content Warning Blood, guts, grave-robbing, corpse mutilation, “woman suits,” and whatever the hell Erica has going on emotionally with Ed Gein. Grab a cocktail, say a prayer for Wisconsin, and join us for one of our more chaotic episodes. Because in the words of Jess: “Stay away from quiet country boys who still live with their mamas.” Final verdict: 10 out of 8 paws. 🐾🐾🐾🐾 (Don't ask - it just happened) Support the show If you love the PodCats, you can support the show and keeping it ad free with a recurring or one time donation at: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1840377/support Check out our website at https://www.catsinthepod.com and be sure to follow us on FB https://www.facebook.com/thecatsinthepod We hope you enjoy this season of Crime & Cocktails 🍷 🐾 😸 🐾 😸 🍷
