Episode description

This week we're talking about Beulah Annan and Belva Gaertner, the two women who inspired the play/musical/movie "Chicago"! They met in prison after shooting each of their lovers and their stories gained wide-spread attention as they played the part of weak, pretty, and innocent women. We cover each of their cases and trials, their relationships, how the media viewed them, our love for musical theatre, and all that jazz.

Quick for our dope theme song and to Elliot Leach for his equipment and sound mixing. We'll see you next Tuesday! xx
