Florida is known for sunshine, beaches… and some of the most chilling crimes in American history. In this episode, Manda takes listeners deep into the darker side of the Sunshine State. She briefly revisits several of Florida’s most infamous murder cases, each disturbing in its own right, before turning the spotlight on one of the most notorious serial killers tied to the state: Henry Lee Lucas. Lucas claimed responsibility for hundreds of murders across the country, but how much of his story was truth and how much was manipulation, coercion, or myth? Manda unpacks his crimes, his confessions, and the controversies that still haunt investigators and victims’ families today. This episode explores the unsettling questions behind one of true crime’s most debated figures and reminds us that Florida’s criminal history is far darker than its postcard image. ⚠️ Trigger warning for child abuse, sexual assault, bestiality, necrophilia, mutilation, dismemberment, cannibalism & murder. Please take care while listening.

In this wild ride of an episode, Ang takes the reins and delivers a hand-picked collection of the most absolutely unhinged Florida Man headlines she could find—and somehow, they’re all real. From inappropriate behavior with an Olaf stuffed toy inside a Target to a suspect attempting to hide a crack pipe in a place the sun doesn't shine (even in the Sunshine State), Florida Man once again proves that reality is stranger (and far more chaotic) than fiction. Join Manda and Ang as they react, laugh, cringe, and try to process how one state can consistently produce headlines this outrageous. If you think you’ve heard it all… Florida Man is here to prove you wrong.

⚠️ Listener discretion advised: bizarre behavior, criminal stupidity, and nonstop “what did I just hear?” moments.

Spine-Chilling Chats are kicking off the New Year in true spooky fashion—and that means it’s time to head to a brand-new state. For the month of January, we’re soaking up the chills (and maybe a little sunshine) in Florida. Back in September, Manda made a promise… and now she’s delivering. After covering Disneyland during our California stop, she’s finally taking us deep into the eerie side of Disney World. In this episode, Manda shares chilling stories and unsettling urban legends that lurk beneath the magic—from the ghost of George at Pirates of the Caribbean to the unsettling tales surrounding the dolls of It’s a Small World. Ang, of course, does what Ang does best, reacting with equal parts disbelief, curiosity, and inappropriate giggling, while the conversation spirals into the darker corners of Disney lore. We also dive into listener stories, the shadowy history behind the park, the infamous legend of Walt Disney’s frozen body, and the very real human remains rumored to be scattered throughout the happiest place on earth. Because even where dreams come true… the spirits might still linger. Welcome to Florida, Spooks—and welcome to the first Spine-Chilling Chats episode of the New Year.
