#446 - The Carnival Mafia - Great Bend, ...

James Pietragallo, Jimmie Whisman
About this episode

This week, in Great Bend, Kansas, when a normal couple wades into the strange world of carnivals & carnies, they fall prey to a group of carnival workers, who believe that they're trying to get themselves initiated into the "carnival mafia", and only need to kill to become members. They choose to kill in a brutal, and awful way, but they luckily left a trail leading right to them, and the stupidity flows from there!!


Along the way, we find out that carnies go from county fair to county fair, that anyone can be anyone on the phone, and that you shouldn't take murder instructions over Facebook messenger!!


Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie Whisman
