So sorry, everyone, we have to reschedule. We have a demonic assault penciled in for 3pm today. But in the meantime, Em brings us a movie report of the Vatican exorcist, Father Amorth, and how the director of the Exorcist (the film) witnessed his first real-life demonic possession. On the true crime side, Christine, hot off her jaguar-filled honeymoon, tells the tragic story of the death of Tina Watson, who died under suspicious circumstances while scuba diving in Australia on her own 2003 honeymoon. And lastly, get ready, because we're quitting the podcast game to become full-time bubble wrap salespeople… and that's why we drink! Please consider supporting the companies that support us!
