1 - St. Louis & Colorado Springs (The Morbid Curious)

Horrible History is a podcast about all the horrible, tragic, and traumatic things that have happened in the history of the world. Each week, hosts Emily Barlean and Rachel Everett-Lozon, a couple of anxious over-achievers who are way too invested in all things horrible, will take listeners on an audio journey to beautiful places... and do deep dives into the horrible histories you won’t read about in travel brochures. Hopefully you’re horrified!

Episode Notes 

This week, join Emily and Rachel as they talk about their hometowns of St. Louis, MO and Colorado Springs, CO. Spend a little time getting to hear them working through their Type 3 anxiety or just skip right to the horrible. Rachel covers the double-murder of the Burnham Family and Wayne Family in 1911, and Emily covers the Great Fire of 1849.
