Description
In this episode, Megan takes us back to the 1800s where literally anything goes, for example, lots and lots of murder by poison! (Is the 1800s the metaphorical equivalent of the 70’s?) Megan tells us the suspiciously sweet story of Christiana Edmunds, aka the Chocolate Cream Poisoner. This episode is a friendly reminder that you should always vet a mysterious box of sweet treats before digging in. If there’s no sender, you might just be biting into a strychnine ganache.
