Welcome or welcome back to Wicked, Weird, and Grim, your number one podcast for a trip through the history of the odd, haunting, and mystifying. On today's episode, we stoke your rebellious, revolutionary spirit discussing the current US regime and acts of defiant resistance through telling the incredible story of a WWII Holocaust (Shoah) hero named Roderick 'Roddie' Waring Edmonds.

Join us as we discuss his absolute bravery, wit, and daring in the face of pure unadulterated evil as he saved 1,257 lives directly, and over 13,000 indirectly.

Stick around at the end to hear our infamous bloopers -- yes, even on this episode because sometimes you have to have laughter and brightness in the face of darkness. (For those with sensory issues, blooper sounds abound)

Welcome or welcome back to Wicked, Weird, and Grim, your number one podcast for a trip through the history of the odd, haunting, and mystifying. On today's episode, we dive deep into Caroline’s newest best friend til death who was the inspiration behind the movie Chucky: Robert the doll.

Listen as we discuss Caroline’s trip to Key West to see Robert “in the flesh” (fabric?), the hijinks that occur at the museum with guests and workers alike, and the legacy Robert has left on the surrounding area. We also discuss the history behind Robert’s original owner and whom he was passed onto upon this owner’s death, as well as how famous Robert has become with crazy cameos of Kim Kardashian, President Bush, and 13 year olds running haunted doll instagrams. You won’t wanna miss this one - it’s perfectly our brand of crazy. No bloopers this episode because we actually managed to keep it together for once — who would’ve thought?

Welcome or welcome back to Wicked, Weird, and Grim, your number one podcast for a trip through the history of the odd, haunting, and mystifying. On today's episode, we dive deep into one of Ara's favorite subjects: the Library of Alexandria. Listen as we discuss the incorrect yet persistent idea that the Library was destroyed in one fell swoop and instead give mention to the multitude of mishaps that led to the library's ultimate destruction. We then cover some of the craziest conspiracies involving the library, its prolific contents, and its lasting legacy. We then give a little tease one of our future episodes concerning another library ridden with perhaps even more conspiracy theories.

{Reuploaded due to interference by Annabelle on the first take} Welcome or welcome back to Wicked, Weird, and Grim, your number one podcast for a trip through the history of the odd, haunting, and mystifying. On today's episode, thanks to the many suggestions of Ara's parents to cover this topic, we discuss the ever infamous possessed doll known as Annabelle. She has been the subject of numerous movies, books, and podcasts, and she was put on the map through her interactions with the similarly famous paranormal investigative couple: Ed and Lorraine Warren. In this episode we unpack the purportedly insidious Annabelle, her hijinks (including tackling white supremacy all on her own), and the surprisingly insidious Warren couple as well. Stick around at the end to hear our infamous bloopers and to hear Annabelle interfere with our first take!!

Welcome or welcome back to Wicked, Weird, and Grim, your number one podcast for a trip through the history of the odd, haunting, and mystifying. On today's episode, thanks to one of our Facebook recommendations, we discuss the gruesome true crime case of Donald Henry Gaskins or "PeeWee" Gaskins, the most notorious serial killer to hail from our great neighboring state of South Carolina. Known for his short stature and underweight frame, this tiny serial killer might have been a small man, but he had a big body count. We hope you find this case as fascinating as we did and that it's just as new to you as it was to us! It's hard to find serial killers that we (mainly Caroline) don't already know, so we were especially intrigued by Gaskins. Stick around at the end to hear our infamous bloopers.

On today's episode we dive deep to talk about a particular obsession of ours....mermaids. We're so obsessed with these creatures as grown women that we've had to split this podcast into two parts due to how much we yapped. This week's episode is all about the sightings of mermaids globally and historically - from 1492 to today. These fishy, aquatic entities bewitch and bemuse us, and we can't wait to dive deep once more again into discussing them with you all.
