E499 Symbiotic Snack Partners and Peppermint Pattie Problems (feat. Guest Host Bethany Watson)
Welcome to another rousing, titillating, & bone-chilling episode of And That’s Why We Drink! Christine couldn’t be here this week, so Em is joined by our very own Jerry O’Connell, the lovely Bethany Watson! Today, Em brings us the Staten Island urban legend of Cropsey, with a little side venture into the deeply upsetting true crime of the Willowbrook State School. Then, in a completely unplanned bit of synchronicity, Bethany covers a true crime case with a paranormal twist: the mysterious disappearance of Jacobo Grinberg. And if we ever vanish without a trace, we’ll find you in the lattice… and that’s why we drink!Links:Willowbrook: The Last Great Disgrace, Geraldo Rivera’s exposeWant to listen ad-free?
