482: Sexist Serial Killer, Porn Parents, & History of Puzzles

Jan 11, 2021
46:09

Today we get some documentary recommendations from Susie including one that shows how a serial killer was unstoppable because the cops were sexist. We debate whether one couple should be fined for destroying their son's porn collection. Susie reveals what happens with illegible mail. We hear about snacks from 79AD, the real reason chess sets are so expensive, and the history of puzzles. Plus, we find out why one man was said to be responsible for bringing AIDS to America, and we learn of the most hilarious news story from 2020 that wasn't.
