What did people do before Tinder and Hinge? In Nannie Doss’s case, she paid $15 a month to meet local singles through a newsletter, exchanged pictures (and sometimes cake), and tied the knot (four times!) This week, Hannah tells Katy about the Giggling Granny whose deadly appetite claimed the lives of four of her five husbands, and anyone who got in her way (or on her nerves). Find out why you should always avoid prunes, and why you might want to avoid taking out life insurance policies as a means of apologizing.
This one is a refreshing return to the killer women we love to hate. So pour a drink, and enjoy this twisted tale!
