Tea’s Weird Week, S5 ep02: Talking with Sinisterhood
Sinisterhood is a podcast that focuses on true crime, cults, and the paranormal (a few of our favorite things!) The show is hosted by Dallas-based comedians and friends Christie Wallace and Heather McKinney. They’re currently on the road recording podcast episodes in front of a live audience and will be stopping in our hometown, Milwaukee, on July 1 to discuss the ghost stories of the famously haunted Pfister Hotel. Tea talked to Sinisterhood about their tour, weird Dallas, and their inspirations.
In the TWW News segment, Tea and Heidi talk more on the Pfister, human tasting burgers, CIA cafeteria woes, bird vomit, and more. Plus trivia from Miss Information, and the dance track of the summer "Juice Demon" by Lavish Waste.

The Weird World
Love listening to Tea talk about the weird world we live in each week. I’m also from the Milwaukee area so I like the local angle he brings as well.
