    Echoes of the Purple Gang: Legacy of Violence and Crime

    Most people hear the words gangs or mafia, their minds typically go to that of Al Capone and the Chicago Outfit (aka Outfit, Chicago Mafia, or the South Side Gang.) But not everyone knows of the one that comes from right here in Michigan and was pretty infamous during the Prohibition Era. The Purple Gang! I first heard from them from a previous job, which I talk about in the podcast and why it fascinated me. And now, come with me as I lead you into the rise and fall of the Purple Gang.  If there is any other gangs or mafias you'd like me to cover, please leave me a comment down below!  Check out our links: https://linktr.ee/thosedweebs

    DDiM 2025 - Going to Our First Book Convention

    Michelle and Julia got to go on a brand new adventure this weekend, attending the book convention, Dreaming Dirty in Michigan. It was an amazing new experience for them both, as it held a completely different vibe to the conventions they have gone to for cosplay. Every author with their own unique books, all of them incredibly nice and informative. The overall experience was super inspiring for them as they are plotting out their own book with the goal to one day return to again!  We highly recommend this event for anyone who enjoys supporting Indie authors, with a variety of different topics and styles!

    Casket Girls: The Unsung Heroines of Colonial Louisiana

    Come with me as I talk about the lesser talked about subject known as the Casket Girls. This subject first drew my attention as I was watching The Originals, the spin off of The Vampire Diaries, based in New Orleans. When I got to the episode revolving the festival, something about it really caught my attention and spoke to me, given that it's not one you typically hear about outside of New Orleans itself. So I wanted to bring it into light and talk about it, to the best of my ability.  Are there other New Orleans festivals you'd like to hear about and for me to cover? Or have you witnessed the festivals yourself? Let me know in the comments below! Check out our links: https://linktr.ee/thosedweebs

    Beyond the Shamrock: The True Story of St. Patrick's Day

    Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! I'm so sorry that it has been a hot minute since I have done an episode for you all, but things should be on the up and up from here out. We might even be able to get back into editing videos for the channel! That being said, I do hope you all enjoy this deep dive into the history of St. Patrick's Day and I'm very curious to if there are any other holidays you'd like me to cover the origins in. Or if there are any traditions I didn't cover while I was doing this episode?  Please leave them in the comments below, and while you're at it.

    Cropsey: A Chilling Tale of Fear, Abduction, and Murder

    Hello and welcome to the first recorded podcast of 2025 and this time around we are trying something new for the podcast. Come with me as I dip my toes into the true crime realm as urban legend melds with reality with the Legend of Cropsy, which originates from Staten Island, New York, and given this is the first time, truthfully, I didn't go into the gory details involved. But maybe as I do more, I'll try out more of them and see how I feel.  Our Socials: https://linktr.ee/thosedweebs
