Hey, Crimes of the Centuries listeners!
\\n
\\nWe\\u2019re off for the Memorial Day holiday, but didn\\u2019t want to leave you with an empty feed, so we\\u2019re featuring an episode from another Obsessed Network show, \\u201cStrange and Unexplained with Daisy Eagan\\u201d
\\n
\\nDaisy is a Tony Award-winning actor, writer, and true crime fanatic. But she\\u2019s also a skeptic. Each week she looks\\xa0 at real stories of hauntings, disappearances, UFO encounters, and anything else that feels just beyond what we can easily make sense of. She is your guide into the inexplicable details of these stories. But she\\u2019s also like, \\u201cshow me the receipts.\\u201d
\\n
\\nWe\\u2019re sharing an episode that we think is perfect for COTC listeners - the story of Typhoid Mary, a cook who refused to wash her hands and the health department that chased her around New York City in search of a stool sample. She\\u2019d end up alone on an island, but everyone knew her name.
\\n
\\n
\\nWe\\u2019ll be back with and all new COTC episode next week, so in the meantime, check out \\u201cStrange & Unexplained with Daisy Eagan\\u201d wherever you get your podcasts.\\n
