    The Zodiac Killer had couples in California scared to go out together for risk of being attacked. In the late 70s, that fear spread to New York (Son of Sam), Atlanta (Atlanta Lover's Lane Murders), and… Jacksonville, Alabama.

  • Ep 44 - Avoid Suspicious Packages & Petty Men
    Dec 7 2024

    In December 1989, a string of deadly mail bombings sent shockwaves through the legal community, claiming the lives of a federal judge (Judge Robert Smith Vance) and a civil rights attorney (Robert E. Robinson), and sending federal investigators on a hunt for one of the pettiest men to ever live.

    In this episode, we also discuss: The Machine (secret society at The University of Alabama), astrology (or “the dark arts of Chinese New Year animals”), Governor Memaw (Kay Ivey), and Rob’s opinion on the size of peppers and onions in food ("not gobbed on there").

Great new Southern Podcast

I just listened to the first episode, and these are my Southern people. The story was well told along with the little tidbits of their local connections. I like some other podcasts where they are couples and was interested in this one because there are not many based in the South. I enjoyed this episode and can't wait for new ones.

The podcast I've been waiting for

I'm from the area, and I've never heard the story! Amber is a great storyteller!
