    73: Valiant Thor - Aliens

    In 1957, an alien named Valiant Thor came to Earth with a clear mission: to bring about world peace, cure all known diseases, and end world hunger. All he asked in return was that we give up our nukes. Or at least, what Dr. Frank E. Stranges claims in his (allegedly) non-fiction book Stranger at the Pentagon.  Today, we’re digging into a wildly audacious story featuring a Jimmy Stewart-looking telepathic alien, multiple assassination attempts, and the king of unreliable narrators. Was Valiant Thor real? Was Frank actually besties with alien Jesus? Hold onto your ice cream cones, ‘cuz this rabbit hole is deeeeeeeep.

    71: Persephone - Femme Fatales

    Ahh, Persephone - goddess of springtime, and queen of the underworld. Hades abducts her, she eats some pomegranate seeds, and now she causes the seasons to change. Right? Wellllll… There's a lot more going on beneath the surface (sorry, had to) than you might think. This week, we’re digging into the real Persephone myth, from where it might have actually started to modern takes that give her way more agency. Did Persephone have any say in what happened to her? Did she even want to become Queen of the Underworld? Plus, we discuss ‘ritual obscenity’, which is A) a real thing, and B) absolutely fantastic.

    70: Lorena Bobbitt - Femme Fatales

    What started as a whirlwind romance between Lorena Bobbitt and John Wayne Bobbitt quickly unraveled into one of the most infamous true crime cases of the 1990s. After years of alleged abuse behind closed doors, a shocking act in June 1993 catapulted the couple into a media frenzy that blurred the line between scandal and tragedy. As late-night jokes and sensational headlines dominated the story, the deeper issues of domestic violence and trauma were often overlooked. In this episode, we revisit the case that captivated the nation and the complicated truth behind the headlines of the Lorena Bobbitt trial👀 Story starts: 07:15 National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-977-7233 Or Text START to 88788 Learn more about the Lorena Gallo Foundation Welcome to I Scream, You Scream, where Gina & Kathryn serve up your weekly scoop of the most chilling histories, mysteries & paranormal perplexities – all with a side of ice cream! 🍦Flavor of the Month: Chocolate & berries 💀Topic of the Month: Femme fatales   🖤Join our Patreon for bonus content, shoutouts, and exclusive treats!

    69.5: Mata Hari (Part II) - Femme Fatales

    Over her decade-long dancing career, Mata Hari redefined what it meant to be an erotic performer. She danced for kings, escorted aristocrats, and basked in her hard-earned wealth. But with WWI quickly setting the world ablaze, she found herself stepping into a dangerous new role - as a spy.  In part 2 of our exploration into Mata Hari’s life and legacy, she’s courted by competing intelligence agencies, with each trying to turn her skills against the other. And with over 1,000,000 francs on the line, Mata Hari seizes her opportunity. But when a single intercepted telegram changes everything, she must reckon with a new type of challenge: when the same men who built her up decide to burn her down.  Story starts: 02:27 🔮Check out Anathema on Instagram 💃View Mata Hari’s scrapbooks at the Fries Museum in Leeuwarden Welcome to I Scream, You Scream, where Gina & Kathryn serve up your weekly scoop of the most chilling histories, mysteries & paranormal perplexities – all with a side of ice cream! 🍦Flavor of the Month: Chocolate & berries 💀Topic of the Month: Femme fatales   🖤Join our Patreon for bonus content, shoutouts, and exclusive treats!

    For decades, Mata Hari has been remembered as history’s most dangerously seductive spy - but the reality of her life tells a different story.  In part one of this two-part episode, we look at who Mata Hari actually was: a woman born into instability and loss who reinvented herself into a global sensation. As her rise to fame collided with a world sliding into war, Mata Hari’s beauty, autonomy, and visibility placed her in the crosshairs of a growing spy panic - setting the stage for how she would become known as the Original Sexy Spy™.  Story starts: 08:02 🔮Check out Occasionally Eerie!  Welcome to I Scream, You Scream, where Gina & Kathryn serve up your weekly scoop of the most chilling histories, mysteries & paranormal perplexities – all with a side of ice cream! 🍦Flavor of the Month: Chocolate & berries 💀Topic of the Month: Femme fatales   🖤Join our Patreon for bonus content, shoutouts, and exclusive treats!
