Night Classy

Content warning: This episode contians. references to sexual assault, pedophilia, CP, and mental illness like depression and suicide.  This week, Hayley covers the case of David Reimer. Anonymously known in the medical community for years as the "John/Joan case," after his parents sought medical expertise for an irregularity while urinating. This resulted in over a decade of experimentation and abuse. David broke his silence in 1997 in hopes of preventing his experience from happening to anyone else. Next, Kat passes the vibe check with a lesson on a "swfit and deadly killer, who left behind a trail of blood." The Champawat Man-eater paralyzed villagers in fear for SEVEN YEARS. She could not be beat! Personally, we would use all the sick days to NOT try and find/fight this tiger, but it's a good thing there are Jim Corbits in this world.  https://linktr.ee/NightClassy Join our Patreon!

Canada check! Kat tells the story of Marie-Josephe Angelique, an enslaved woman whose bravery and tenacity made her a symbol of black resistance. She probably didn’t start the fire, but we’d love that for her if she had. Next, Hayley brings the drama with the allegedly cursed Hope Diamond.  The diamond is big, it is also blue, don’t take it home, or dogs will eat you.  https://linktr.ee/NightClassy Join our Patreon!

This week, Kat covers a 1950s game show scandal, which feels much less like a game when the Supreme Court gets involved. Come for the drama, stay for the unique names and a surprise origin story at the end! Next, Hayley covers how one painting (Madame X…) apparently ruined the models life, and it’s not because she (Amélie Gautreau) couldn’t sit still and was “bad all around.”  This episode is sponsored by betterhelp.

Be scared, because Hayley’s here to tell you about Ilya Ivanov and his love of artificial insemination. Ivanov’s ultimate goal was to produce a chimp-human hybrid.. by any means necessary.

Kat covers the Strelzyk and Wetzel families’ daring escape from East Germany in their homemade hot air balloon. You know living under the Soviets was bad when 8 people were willing to fly 8,200 feet in the air in a contraption that failed many times. Not even Chipotle could make us shit our pants that hard. Next, Hayley discusses near death experiences and their window into the afterlife. Did the first guy burn because he was a childhood bully or because he was literally struck by lightning? You decide!

Then, Kat tells the end of life story of Harry Truman, not the president! We're talking about the one who opted out of evacuating Mt. St. Helens in 1980 and opted IN for automatic vaporization with the comfort of his 16 cats and his homemade "Panther Piss."  This episode is sponsored by betterhelp.

Kat teaches a lesson on Deep Throat, the movie not the Watergate mole. Although they might have something in common- can we be 100% sure Nixon didn’t have a clitorous in the back of his throat? Then, Hayley tells the life story of Lord Byron, the 19th century’s favorite unhinged thinspo influencer. Unfortunately for him, extreme dieting does NOT prevent STDs, and neither does sleeping with your sister.  This episode is sponsored by betterhelp.

Kat's lesson takes us to New France aka France 2 (the sequel) aka NAWLINS.  Also, some strange pale girls carrying caskets for duffle bags are following us. NONE of this lesson is embellished so throw on your Team Edward shirt and learn the legend of The Casket Girls. Up next, we may no nothing about coding but we do know World of Warcraft developers nailed it when they accidentally created an in-game pandemic in 2005. Real world epidemiologists studied gamer behavior ie: how players did/did not quarantine, or how some chose chaos and spread the "Corrupted Blood" intentionally. *side eye emoji*  This episode is sponsored by betterhelp.

Nepotism pays, but it also KILLS. When daddy’s money couldn’t buy Michael Rockefeller what he wanted, he paid with his life. Or did he??
