Amanda and Sarah do the thing with one incredible true crime case and a couple of very bad dogs. Amanda cleans up with the story of the Three Sisters in Black and the bathtub tragedy, a bizarre 1909 murder involving a trio of truly awful women. Sarah returns to one of her favorite subjects - Black Dogs - with the Gubblecote Witch and Lady Mary Howard. Other subjects covered include Ghibli-esque nap spirits, sweat stains, and Funkos, the Beanie Babies of today.
