Tracey Wigginton grew up maladjusted and abused by her wealthy grandparents who subjected her to all kinds of torture. Supposedly, even ritual satanic abuse. Tracey wanted to be something more and began drinking the blood of animals, claiming she needed it because she was a vampire.She got other women to join her and they loosely formed a cult based on Tracey's belief that she was a vampire. Animal blood wasn't enough for Tracey and she said she needed to kill a man and consume his blood to live.On October 20, 1989, she got her female friends to lure a drunk Edward Baldock into their car. They drove him down by the river and made it seem like they were going to get frisky, and then Tracey stabbed him to death.Did she drink his blood? It's unknown, though her friends claimed they could smell it on her breath. On this episode, Cruel Tea breaks down this disturbing and tragic case.--- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cruelteapod/supportSupport the show

Queer music in Australia is arguably louder and prouder in 2018 than it has ever been—but this modern strength and visibility did not grow out of a vacuum. From singular artists in the ’50s and ’60s to women’s music groups in the ’70s, plus dance hedonism in the ’80s, ’90s and beyond, Australia has a long and rich—but often neglected—history of openly queer music. This panel discussion at MPavilion is a vibrant reflection on Australian LGBTQIA+ musical expression across the decades, featuring renowned political singer and Federal Circuit Court of Australia judge Judy Small; Clitoris Band and Sheila musician Greadann Jack; academic, archivist and Australian Lesbian and Gay Archives volunteer Kathy Sport; DJ, producer, label-owner and club-night originator Gavin Campbell; and Nick Henderson, sound curator at the National Film and Sound Archive. Presented by @chaptermusic, this eclectic MTalks gathers a lineup of pioneering artists, archivists and historians for an afternoon that was half panel discussion, half live performance and DJs—and one hundred percent celebration. http://mpavilion.org/program/chapter-music-presents-australian-queer-music-history/
