And That's Why We Drink

Listen. Are you ready for Em’s story? We're pretty sure you're not, but we’ll tell you anyway. It’s the Squirrel Cage Jail of Pottawattamie County in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Christine was SO ready, she kinda-sorta fell asleep during it, but only because wine. Once Christine wakes up, she covers the krazy story of Leonarda Cianciulli, who fed her favorite son some…questionable…tea cakes.
