Welcome to ep. 12! Em tells Christine about the “Chair of Death” and its super-dramatic owner, who happened to get hanged, tarred, and feathered in front of his own bar. Christine tells Em about Carl Tanzler, who decided that since his 21-year-old love interest didn’t return his affections during her life, her corpse would have to live with him after her death. All in all, it’s a barrel of laughs. And that’s why we drink!
