You thought we dipped, didn't you? But we're back! We, like many of you, have abortion rights on the brain, so we tell a couple stories adjacent to that. Emily starts us off with a history of Eugenics in America, and the story Minnie and Mary, two black girls who brought the horrors of forced sterilization to light. Then, Taylor tells the story of Dr. Garson Romalis, an abortion provider who was shot in his own home. Grab a fish-bowl sized drink and join us. #youonlyyearonce

In case you can't tell from all the screaming, this is our 100th episode of Uh-Oh! We have our occasional co-host, Kat, along for the ride, as we give each other presents, and gag on some truly terrible alcohol. We do manage to get to a couple of EPIC stories as well. Emily tells the story of Rodney King, whose encounter with police set off a 3-day riot in LA. Then Kat gives us a quick palette cleanser of a story, before Taylor launches into the tale of the Chowchilla kidnapping and their favorite survivor to-date. Enjoy! And thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years. 100, baby!

Monday Dec 27, 2021
Don't worry, no one's on drugs or getting locked in a fridge. We have a special guest, and she is here to tell her story in her own words! That's right, Emily and I are not trading stories for this one. Instead, we are joined by Susan, a woman who has a harrowing tale to tell, and was kind enough to come on this podcast to do it. We were so honored to have her, and we're very excited for you to hear her story.
We hope everyone has been having a happy and safe holiday season. The next time you see us will be for our 100th Episode Celebration! Much love!

Hello! You join us on part 2 of Emily's 3-part Survivor series. If you haven't listened to episode 96, it might give you some context to go do that first.
But! Before we get to that, Taylor keeps it light with the story of Casey Hathaway, a young boy who gets lost in the woods and found under strange (and some say suspicious) circumstances.
Then Emily hits us right in the feels with the story of 3 incredible survivors of the Cambodian genocide.

Ep. 96: Things Happen Because Things Happen
Monday Nov 15, 2021
Monday Nov 15, 2021
We hope you find this episode, very a-peel-ing! That joke only works if you've already listened. Anyway-- Emily is starts us off with the first installment of a THREE-PARTER! That's right, we've got a little cause-and-effect coming your way. Get excited, but not too excited because it does all kick off with America bombing the hell out of Cambodia. Which, to be clear, sucks.
Then, Taylor brings you the story of Margaret Gwyer, who has been added to the list of her favorite "people who survive sinking ships in the lease likely way possible."
Audio issue at 57 minutes has been fixed.
