This is the second of two episodes recorded live in front of an audience at Open Eye Theatre, featuring special guest, Shanan Custer! Our audience joined us listening to “If a Body Need a Body Just Call Burke and Hare” from Crime Classics! In the poorest parts of mid-19th century Edinburgh, William Burke and William Hare find a path to quick money by providing medical schools with fresh cadavers. Based on true events, this story details the exploits of two characters who have a special place in the secret origin of the Mysterious Old Radio Listening Society! How do two unassuming men become such notorious villains? Is free shoe cobbling worth the risk? Would this story be more terrifying if they were floating next to a large ship? Listen for yourself and find out!
