Howdy Geoffs, especially our Phila PA pals! This week Madison and Spencer are spinning together to talk about their trip to the Mutter Museum! Madison is giving us the history of the man behind the museum and some of her most memorable moments from the visit, and then Spencer does a deep dive into the history of phrenology and the massive Joseph Hyrtl skull exhibit. We’ve got an obituary for a conspiracy theorist, one for a mummy, and of course, we’ve got some dumb.ass.criminallllllllls!
