Sad Tales From Underground

We’ve hit another landmark episode – the big three-oh! This week, Alex takes us through the details of Samuel Little, the man regarded as America’s Most Prolific Serial Killer. It’s a dark tale that has had updates as recent as this year! To end this episode, we get the best reaction from Alex we’ve had so far when Frances tells him what she overheard in a nearby brewery.   Social: @sadtalespodcast Patreon: Patreon.com/sadtalespodcast

Happy Halloweek, guys! It’s our last episode in the twenties, and we think it’s one you’ll enjoy! After shooting the breeze on the mic, Frances kicks off the episode with the story of Joyce Munguia in Austin, Texas. Then Alex takes advantage of the season with the Trick-or-Treat Murders and a relationship web that sounds straight out of a movie. We usually try to end the episode with something charming and whimsical, but you’ll never guess what unfortunate thing Alex heard someone compare cider to.

*Regarding Future Episodes: We will be on a bi-weekly basis for the foreseeable future*It’s Saturday already and time for more Sad Tales? Dope! Episode 28 is full of twists, turns and plenty of tangents, as Alex starts off the hour with the horrible life and times of Ottis Toole from Jacksonville, Florida. After that fun ride, Frances breaches the topic of mass shootings with the story of Clifton McCree and an event that took place in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 1996. To end on a positive note though, you’ll get to hear how out of place Frances and Alex were when they overhear things in a shmancy hotel.
