Happy Valentine's Day, Oddballs! Love is in the air, and it comes in many forms. Some healthier than others. The couples this week have a toxic kind of love. I'll be talking about the crimes of Ray and Faye Copeland and the murder of Adrianne Jones. Sources: Investigationdiscovery.com, thoughtco.com, bizarrepedia.com

This cemetery has tons of history and mystery. There are tales of Victorian celebrities, menageries, vampires, and ghosts. There is something for everyone in my first episode of Season 6. Sources: Britannica.com, atlasobscura.com, lookup.london, amyscrypt.com

This week we are getting into the Christmas spirit in true O&C fashion. This year we will talk Icelandic Folklore and the horrific crimes of Ronald Gene Simmons. We hope you have a Yule Cat, Yule Lads, Gryla free holiday season!

This week is a little different. The episode is based on an email we got from one of our wonderful listeners, Nicole K. Enjoy! Sources: wamu.org, research.fairfaxcounty.gov, ranker.com

This week we try to jazz up the awfully morbid topic of axe murders. In our opinion, at this point, owning an axe should be a crime with how often they are used as weapons of opportunity. Join us for the tales of the Axe man of New Orleans and Frankie Silver.

This week we are talking about a story we all know but with our own O&C twist! H. H. Holmes and his house of horrors are our topic of discussion.

This week's topic is a rough one. As much as people like to think "It could never happen to me", it very well can. We are discussing survivor stories of human trafficking from Liz Williamson and Sharon Richard.

Since we couldn't record this week, we are bringing you a banger from Season 1. Enjoy!

Sorry Oddballs.....No Halloween Special this year : (

Anyone curious about the odd, mystical, and macabre know about the Salem Witch Trials. This week we take a closer look at the accused Rebecca Nurse and the snitches behind most of the accusations. "We are the daughters of the witches they couldn't burn."

This week we talk about the spooky mystery of black eyed children. These stories are terrifying and mysterious. Demons? Ghosts? Aliens? What do you think they are?
