In My Footsteps Podcast Episode 165: My Pet Bat, Serial Killer Hadden Clark, 1990s Horror Movies, Black Sox Scandal(10-9-2024)

 


A pet bat? A look into the mind of a convicted serial killer? Some of the best horror movies of the 1990s?
Episode 165 of the podcast is scary good.
It kicks off with a terrifying look into the mind of a serial killer. Hadden Clark is a name longtime listeners might be familiar with due to his connection to the Lady of the Dunes documentary. However, he is in his own right a twisted individual. We take a look at his own life story, with part of it being in his own words.
Things get much lighter as we go way Back In the Day and go over the brief time my family had a bat as a pet. How did Brownie arrive? How did Brownie leave our family? It's all in here.
This week's Top 5 is a solution to the question of what 1990s horror movies you should watch during Spooky Season. We look at some of the best the decade had to offer. How many of these have you seen?
There is as always a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule centered around the infamous Black Sox baseball scandal.

Many of us grew up with beloved pets in our homes. The host is no different. A liker of dogs but a lover of cats I was blessed to have many incredible animals share their lives with me. However, there was one pet, a cat named Solo, who was the most unique animal to reside in my childhood homes. I will take you way Back In the Day to tell the strange but true story of Solo the Cat.
Artist Andy Warhol popularized the concept of 15 Minutes of Fame. This week's Top 5 is going to shine a spotlight on some such people from the 1980s. We will look back at some of those who became celebrities, maybe even big-time celebrities, but faded away as the 80s drew to a close.
