Show Notes

This week the Society listens to a suggestion from Abby, who told us about an episode of Crime Classics! This series blends dark comedy and historical tales of true crime. In this episode, a German ne’er-do-well finds himself accused of four murders and he may not want to prove himself innocent. During the discussion afterwards, Tim makes a ridiculous claim that he found a link to the actual story that was the basis for this production. There is no such link. However, here’s a couple other bits of useful information: Bad Luck Schleprock and schlemiel and schlimazel. What is the odd bit of trivia regarding this show? Why are people so fond of Baumler when death and destruction seem to follow in his wake? Is Bruno an appropriate name for a dog? Listen for yourself and find out!
