Hot Messes of History HMHPodcast
-
- History
-
Crystal (alarmingly obsessed with old buildings) and Meghan (too engrossed in conspiracy theories to hold normal conversations) bond over a mutual hatred of their own voices, as well as the courage it takes to overcome that hatred in order to produce a podcast! Each week, Crystal and Meghan will tackle a new topic of history that resonates with their own feelings of Hot Mess-ness. There will be giggling, cats, obscure pop culture references (Crystal), less obscure pop culture references (Meghan), and general comedic excellence!

Episode 17 - Josh and Susan Powell
This week, Meghan and Crystal have a very special guest host, Meghan's sister Brooke! These three lovelies talk about the very not lovely disappearance of Susan Powell, as well as all that occurs after with her husband, Josh Powell. Fair warning before you begin, audio issues made this one a little tough to understand, but if you want to pop over to the podcast's Patreon, you could help support them as they seek to buy a new microphone!
