S. 6 Episode 7- The Candy Man - Dean Corll
Show Notes

Another week, another serial killer! 
Kat revisits our first episode EVER (which is no longer available) and gives a good update. Dean Corll was the most prolific serial killer at the time, only to be beaten by John Wayne Gacy later.  This is a maddening and twisted story, for sure. Join us as we explore the dark side of humanity - with beer!

We also open a listener gift with some goodies inside. (Thanks, Anna!)
