On today's cryptic and crime-ridden installment, Tom and Jenny are finally getting around to tackling America's preeminent case of a serial killer who has never been caught: The Zodiac. Beginning in the mid to late 1960s, California was gripped in fear of the hooded gunman who largely targeted couples in their cars and ruthlessly shot them to death before sending taunting and coded letters to police and newspapers. Who was he, how many people did he actually kill, and will he ever be...

On this episode of 13 O'Clock, we're talking about what is probably one of the weirdest and ostensibly most haunted houses in the United States, if not the world: the infamous Winchester Mystery House.

Did Sarah really build this...

Ah, the good old days, when you could pack up your family and lay claim to hundreds of acres of prairie and set about building a life for yourself through hard work and perseverance.

The mid to late 1970s were the heyday of punk rock, and one of the people who most embodied the nihilistic and self-destructive allure of the punk subculture was Sex Pistols bassist Sid Vicious. A drug addict from a broken home, Sid's anarchic attitude and unpredictable (and sometimes violent) behavior became synonymous with punk rebellion, but his already disordered life spiralled even further out of his control when he met American groupie and sex worker Nancy Spungen. The two became...
