\\nWARNING: The audio in this episode is rough. What can we say? We were young(ish), dumb, and thought we\\u2019d save a little money by sharing one microphone. Yeah. The audio quality improves drastically after episode 9.\\xa0

In this episode, Kristin talks about world-class asshole D.C. Stephenson. Stephenson led the Klu Klux Klan through a period of unprecedented growth, but his violent crime against a white woman took him down. His trial captivated the nation and ultimately led to the downfall of the KKK\\u2019s second wave.

Brandi lightens things up (thank God), with everyone\\u2019s favorite Guess model/reality TV star/day shift stripper, Anna Nicole Smith. When she was just 26, Smith married an 89-year-old billionaire. When he died a year later, Smith battled her late husband\\u2019s descendants over her share of the estate. The case went all the way to the supreme court. Twice. Yeah. Buckle up, folks.\\xa0

And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.
