19. Banana Beer, a James Dean Wannabe, and Chairs Being Thrown in Nebraska

Summary

This week’s episode starts with a few laughs… one sip will do ya ladies and gentlemen! The ladies enjoyed some delicious EOS Hefeweizen from Nebraska Brewing Company. Bettina told the true crime story this week about Charles Starkweather and The Mad Nebraska January of 1958. Was Caril Ann Fugate guilty like he said, or a victim as she claims?  Beth ends the episode with some haunted tales about a few buildings at the University of Nebraska,  in Lincoln.  She also surprised Bettina with a listener story from Nebraska!
