Episode 41 continues the spooky Halloween season with the ghastly true crime story of the Smuttynose Axe Murders.  On a remote island miles off of the coast of Maine two women were brutally murdered in 1873.  Learn the story behind the crime and why there might be questions as to who the killer was even to this day.
Nothing was cooler as a child of the 1980's than reading Fangoria Magazine.  With graphic bloody photos from classic horror films it was Fangoria that gave 80's and 90's kids ideas of what horror movies to rent from the video store.  Hear a little more about it when we go way Back In the Day.
The epic 2,100-mile/6-day Road Trip has been nothing but success up to this point.  Now it is time to hear about the trip's greatest fail.  The attempt to drive the Blue Ridge Parkway.  Why was it a fail?  Listen and find out.
The latest Top 5 list contains some of Cape Cod's most underrated attractions.  Not necessarily secret spots, but ones that don't get enough love.  Which ones made the list?
There's a brand new This Week In History about the launch of Saturday Night Live as well as a Time Capsule surrounding a very special birthday.
Be sure to watch for my livestreams called Without A Map Friday's at 8pm on Instagram which serve as a sort of postgame show for the podcast. Find them on IGTV and YouTube after they've finished.
