Episode 34: Alcatraz
It's Lolo's birthday today and we are gifting you with this episode! It was totally planned that it would be released late, I swear! ;) Well, either way we are celebrating our epic co-host Lolo as well as all of you and the start of the holiday season so it's a pretty good day. For our 2-fer topic this week we head down/up the west coast to a tiny rock in the middle of the San Francisco Bay. This tiny rock was known as the most daunting and escape proof prison of it's day. And by now I'm guessing you have figured out that we are covering none other than the infamous Alcatraz Island. With a long and varied past, which just so happened to usually be pretty violent, this rock has true crime AND the supernatural just oozing out of it's crumbling concrete walls. So get ready cause it's lights out which means you need something to pass the dark night away, might as well be us!
