Professional Weirdo Podcast
Where I research strange stories and tell them to you. Because, let’s face it, I’m gonna research this anyway and blurt it to someone, might as well be a willing audience. Some of these stories might get dark, morbid, murdery…. so listener discretion is advised.

Episode 2 - What Little Girls are Made of (the Spice edition)
As the saying goes, it’s sugar and spice, and all things nice. That’s what little girls are made of. In digging around for these stories, I found a few examples of the sugar. Enough in fact, that I’m planning to do another episode down the road on that. But today’s episode is all about those little girls who were cooking with spice.
