We've seen a few of our courtroom contestants meet their maker, as we all will one day, after we release the episode where they are the subject. Just recently, OJ Simpson, passed away and lots of people made one final dig at The Juice. Many would say it was well-deserved for what most view as him “getting off” for killing his ex-wife and her friend, but some still say that if the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit. In this episode, we'll reboot our OJ show and tell his story one more time. Enjoy!

From Playboy's Playmate of the Month, to Playmate of the Year, to TV star, to anti-vax spokesperson, McCarthy has worn many hats in her almost 30-year celebrity career. Regardless of the reason, she seemed to easily find the spotlight whatever the endeavor may be. But, is she truly the hardcore anti-vax quack she's been made out to be, or is there a bit of a different side of the story to her beliefs? What is it like to be married to a New Kid on the Block star? What was it that took the photographer by surprise when she posed for Playboy? We'll dive into these questions and a whole lot more in the Jenny McCarthy episode of AHC Podcast. 1) A&E Networks Television. (2019, April 16). Jenny McCarthy. Biography.com.

For our Halloween episode, we explore the strange death of the master of the macabre himself, Edgar Allan Poe. --- Cassandra Harold is your host. EM Hilker is our principal writer and researcher with additional writing by Cassandra Harold. Jim Harold is our Executive Producer. Unpleasant Dreams is a production of Jim Harold Media. You can find EM Hilker's original article HERE PODCAST TRANSCRIPT There is much that can be said about Edgar Allan Poe, but in terms of his literary habits, little that needs to be. Much more famous in death than he was in life, he was nevertheless a literary critic of some renown in his own time. His true love, however, was lurid, ghastly fiction. Poe unknowingly fathered the genre of detective fiction, through his tales of C. Auguste Dupin. The most well-known Dupin story was The Murders in the Rue Morgue, which served to set the stage for Sherlock Holmes and his ilk. He is best known now for his gothic fiction, morbid tales filled with crumbling stone castles and candle-lit catacombs, of demonic foes and bitter sweet revenge. He brought us The Raven, Hop-Frog, The Fall of the House of Usher. The creative mind of Poe was deep and dark and mysterious as a night ocean. … but little is so mysterious as Poe's own death....
