This week, we are in Utah and with some very special guests! Kenzie’s mom was in town visiting, and was our honorary live audience while we recorded this episode! Unfortunately, our mics did not pick up what she said, so it might sound like we are talking to an imaginary person, but we promise, she was there! Later in the episode, our friend Juliana arrives, and it was great practice for future live shows! Lauren kicks things off by delving into the story of the controversial John Doyle Lee, a high-ranking member in the early days of Mormonism whose questionable decisions ultimately led to his excommunication from the church. Next, Kenzie shares the tale of the supposed curse on the 1956 John Wayne movie, The Conqueror. Is the movie really cursed, or simply a result of human error and negligence? Tune in for an episode filled with intriguing stories and a glimpse into Utah's cool nature and its more ominous characters.
