This week Em covers a classic, Stephen King’s Christine both the book and film adaptation. Then Christine covers Part Three of the Murdaugh Murders, wrapping up this wild case. And is anyone else ready for their Halloween main character moment? …and that’s why we drink!

It’s episode 501, and we are definitely not about to fall asleep during recording again! This week Em covers the haunted Pioneer Saloon, one of Nevada’s oldest bars, which they got to actually visit just a few weeks ago! Then Christine starts Part One of the Murdaugh Murders case, which somehow gets crazier with every new detail. And remember folks, just because you don’t drink doesn’t mean you can’t have a saloon… and that’s why we drink!

Happy October everyone! Spooky season is officially here, and what better way to ring it in than with a collection of ghost pet stories (thank you to Patron Christine for suggesting!) On the tails of her animal sanctuary wedding, Eva has gathered us up a batch of tales of very good boi ghost dogs, and some haunted holographic kitties that nearly bring us to tears. And can someone tell us WHAT is up with ghosts being seen on walls?? …and that’s why we drink!
P.S. CONGRATULATIONS to our wonderful Eva on getting married! We had the best time celebrating with you at the beautiful Best Friends Animal Society in Kanab. To learn more about Best Friends you can visit: https://bestfriends.org/.

Ahhh!! It’s finally Episode 500!! So grab your favorite milkshake, mocktail, or cocktail and join us for this momentous occasion before the dreaded “Your moment has ended” screen appears. Today, Em takes us to Oregon for the haunted Wolf Creek Inn, where we encounter a ghost army, an absolutely unreasonable amount of Jolly Ranchers, and, of course, some classic Z.B. shenanigans. Then Christine brings us some history on Old Timey Forensics, which includes missing body parts, ancient insect forensics, and touches on some cases we’ve covered over the years. So thank you for coming along with us on this wild, weird, spooky, and surprisingly lemon-filled ride for all these years. We genuinely couldn’t have made it to 500 without you… and that’s why we drink!

Welcome to another rousing, titillating, & bone-chilling episode of And That’s Why We Drink! Christine couldn’t be here this week, so Em is joined by our very own Jerry O’Connell, the lovely Bethany Watson! Today, Em brings us the Staten Island urban legend of Cropsey, with a little side venture into the deeply upsetting true crime of the Willowbrook State School. Then, in a completely unplanned bit of synchronicity, Bethany covers a true crime case with a paranormal twist: the mysterious disappearance of Jacobo Grinberg. And if we ever vanish without a trace, we’ll find you in the lattice… and that’s why we drink!

**Content Warning: crimes against children**

It’s Episode 498 and we’re feeling like Spongebob in Sandy’s house for the first time. Today Em brings us to Indianapolis for the tale of the haunted Slippery Noodle Inn with its elusive cowboy ghost. Then Christine brings us a heavy and sad story with the case of the Groene Family, which leave us needing a palette cleanser about Leona’s current fashion choices. And who wants to see a new interview style ghost hunting show with Em? Let us know in the comments… and that’s why we drink!

It’s Episode 497 and we're sharing some big news in that Christine will be leaving the podcast at the end of October. While this is the very sad end of one era, we're ready to start another with Christine behind the scenes at ParaPods Network and Em behind the mic of ATWWD. We'll continue bringing the haunts year-round as we creep our way into a new, lovely, spooky chapter. And meanwhile we've got some fun stories for you today: Em brings us the biography, not biology, of one of Christine’s favorite people, Chip Coffey, the man of many names. Then Christine takes Em back to Idaho with a story we touched on in our second book, A Haunted Road Atlas: Next Stop, The Boise Murder House, with its sentient oil ball. And how many shark shirts is too many, do you think? …and that’s why we drink!

Calling all Virgos and September Libras! It’s officially September so we’re remixing it up today with guest host Xandy Schiefer while Em is away. Today Eva collected a batch of classic ghost stories for us which remind us that sometimes the black of night is better than whatever may be calling from the vents, and to not trust the feelings in the fog. And is the purple gorilla Bonsai Buddy the newest Mandela Effect? Let us know… and that’s why we drink!

Hallihallo! It’s Episode 496 and you may not be sad! Today Em brings us a story with several loop-de-loop side quests - the Frontier House and “the Morgan Affair”. Then Christine covers the case of Angela Green, a disappearance that remains unsolved to this day. And don’t forget to marry the waters into your ketchup bottle body… and that’s why we drink!
