2021 Halloween Special: Guess the Final Girl
Six Degrees of WTF
10/06/21 • 72 min
5.0
Ah, the beloved final girl. Slasher flicks wouldn't be the same without them, so we are dedicating the entire first episode of our 2021 month of Halloween fun to them.
Both O'Dell and Erin recount their horror movie through the final girl's eyes, and at the end of the story, the other has to guess which movie it came from.
O'Dell kicks things off with the tale of Chris Higgins who survived a blood bath at her family's lake house in 1982. Erin continues with the story of Dana Polk, who also survived an extremely strange and bloody incident at a cabin. O'Dell ends it all with the story of Carly Jones who, along with her brother, narrowly escaped a ghost town that had been overtaken by crazy twin brothers.
It's October, y'all. Let the month of terror begin!

Episode 43: Over the River & Through the Woods
Six Degrees of WTF
11/24/21 • 72 min
5.0
Tis the season! Before we dive into weeks of "the war on Christmas", Hallmark movies, overspending, and "holiday cheer", we have to get through a day of overeating, arguing with family about stuff that divides us... and football. If you're into none of that, or if you need an escape, we're here to help.
Today we kick things off with us talking about our friendship and how some folks have written in asking if we're being hostile or intentionally "mean" to one another. The answer is neither. We just enjoy razzing one another.
O'Dell then kicks off true crime story time with the strange disappearance of the Skelton brothers. 9-year-old Andrew, 7-year-old Alexander and 5-year-old Tanner went missing after spending Thanksgiving day with their father in 2010. Eleven years later, the boys are still missing, and the father's story continues to change.
Erin then talks about Paul Merhige, a man who attended Thanksgviing dinner with his family and then proceeded to shoot 4 of them dead. Did he snap, or had he been planning this for a while?
We close things out with another reminder that if death wants you, he will find you one way or another which leads to a couple of hypothetical/what if questions before we sign off.
Chapters:
- 00:00 - Intro
- 00:42 - Do we like one another?
- 05:39 - Aiden Fucci Update
- 10:19 - O'Dell's Story: The Missing Skelton Brothers

Episode 46: Do You Hear What I Hear?
Six Degrees of WTF
12/15/21 • 69 min
5.0
...because what we hear a lot of on this episode are people talking out both sides of their mouths.
Erin kicks things off with the decades old unsolved mystery of the disappearance of Lauria Bible and Ashley Freeman, two high school girls from Oklahoma who disappeared a few days before New Year's Eve in 1999. Ashley's parents were found murdered and the home was set ablaze, but the girls have never been found and nobody can be trusted - not even law enforcement.
O'Dell then tells the story of 19-year-old Rhonda Hinson, who was shot and killed while driving home from a Christmas Party. The bullet went through the trunk of her moving car, through the driver's seat and pierced her heart. Was it an assassin, a crazy accident or a really lucky shot made by someone who had it out for her? Recently, an investigative journalist has started asking questions of those closest to Rhonda, and a lot of fingers are being pointed. Will the case finally be solved?
Erin closes things out with a story about a man who was killed by tampons and then O'Dell cleanses the palette with a surprise visit from Santa. We're each given 24-hours to experience anything we want with zero repercussions, and not surprisingly, we both choose very different things.
Chapters:
- 00:00 - Intro
- 02:12: Erin's Story - What Happened to Lauria Bible & Ashley Freeman?
- 18:38 - O'Dell's Story: Who Shot Rhonda Hinson?
- 57:51 - In Memoriam: Death by Tampon

Episode 61: I See Your True Colors
Six Degrees of WTF
05/11/22 • 74 min
5.0
On this episodes our virtual true crime road trips lead us to Massachusetts and Arkansas.
After covering a listener write-in and a couple of updates, O'Dell kicks things off with the murder of Rita Hester, a transgendered woman who was stabbed 20 times. Her murder sparked the Transgender Day of Awareness, but her killer has never been apprehended.
Erin follows up with a story that sounds like it could have been the inspiration for Ozark. Two teen boys went out hunting one night and never came home. Their bodies were hit by a train because they had been placed on railroad tracks. Authorities deemed it an accident, but it obviously wasn't. Corruption runs deep on this case!
We close things out with an in memoriam about a death caused by a beard, a palette cleanser about mistaken identity and a shower thought.
Chapters:
- 00:00 - Intro
- 00:42 - Stabby Cool Kid write-in and updates
- 07:48 - O'Dell's Case: Who Murdered Rita Hester?

5.0
They say it's the most wonderful time of the year, so let's talk about some not-so-wonderful disappearances, shall we?
Erin kicks things off with the disappearance of Patty Vaughan. Patty allegedly left her home after a fight with her estranged husband and then vanished. Did he do something to her, or is someone else at fault?
O'Dell then covers the story of the missing Martin family who left their Portland home one Sunday morning in 1958 and have not been seen or heard from since. It was supposed to be a family outing to gather greenery for Christmas decorations, but what really transpired?
Erin brings us home with a WTF story about a man who died after too many years of accepting dares from his buddies, and then we cleanse the palette with another "what if?" involving a strange baby.

5.0
This is our last regular episode before we jump into a full month of creepy, Halloween fun, and we're already feeling the excitement, but first - the cases.
Erin makes a stop in Alabama as part of her virtual true crime road trip, and discusses the case of "The Morgan County Three". These are three women - Mary Faye Hunter, Juanita Acker, and Joyce Drake - all who were murdered in the same town, and all of their cases are unsolved.
O'Dell then discusses the murder of native teen, Kaysera Stops Pretty Places. To say that the authorities have mishandled this case is an extreme understatement, and it is maddening! This is an important one. This poor girl deserves justice, and her family deserves answers.
Erin closes things out with two deaths, both by remote-controlled plane, and then we sign off by assigning each other ten horror movies that we have never seen before. We will watch them, rank them and then share our thoughts on them during the final episode in our 2021 Halloween special. Watch along and send us your thoughts!
Chapters:
- 00:00 - Intro
- 00:41 - It's Almost October!
- 05:20 - Erin's Story: The Morgan County Three Murders
