Hello.
Welcome back to another episode of diagnosing a killer, the mental breakdown.
I'm Koelle.
I'm Kenna- it sounded like you were waiting for me to say my name.
I didn't know if you were gonna say something after that and then we were gonna do names.
I wore my Yikes on Bike shirt to work today.
It looks so cute.
It's so cute.
And the print is like not even a print like you put your hand over and it doesn't feel
like it's vinyl or not vinyl but what's it called?
Well that's what we were saying like not vinyl or iron on.
Yeah, it's what they- again what Remindrators has said they call it sublimination.
Yeah, it just feels like the shirt.
It's pressed into the shirt.
Yeah.
So yeah, highly recommend if you're gonna get a shirt like that's- I mean that's my
favorite one.
I'm so happy with those.
I really am.
I am too.
I'm glad.
Get some merch, e-merch, send us your photos.
We've been getting some photos from friends of them wearing our merch and stuff and that's
like very exciting.
Yeah.
Oh man, maybe we should put those on the website.
If you've bought a t-shirt from us and you would not mind being on our website, give
us a picture of you wearing our merch so we can put it out there.
It's actually a really good idea.
Yeah.
I'd like to be featured.
I'm a genius.
It's just gonna be me like, hey it's only gonna be me.
Yikes on bikes.
But yeah, I know that it is your mental breakdown but I'm gonna take up a second of everyone's
time right now just to talk about some people that are following us that are amazing, our
good listeners and a couple of messages that we got.
So if you don't know, you can follow us on social media anywhere at Diagnosing a Killer.
We do have a Twitter which is at Killer Diagnosis.
We do have a Patreon set up.
Thank you to all of our lovely patrons that are currently in our Patreon members.
Excuse me.
And if you do not know our tier two and three Patreons, of course everyone gets access to
ad free episodes but on the 29th which is next Thursday we are going to have access to an
additional bonus episode for our tier two and three Patreons and we're gonna release
a teaser on whenever this episode comes out, it will be the next episode about who we're
doing.
It'll be on, well that's true.
Who knows when everybody's listening but it should be the, well it's dated, it's the
22nd of June and Kenna's gonna bring her case and then she knows who I'm doing for the
Patreon exclusive episode.
Yes.
So in the end of her episode we will give a teaser if you will to who we're doing or
who I'm doing on the 29th and then you'll have access to that episode the following
week, the 29th of June.
Yes and I'm just gonna put a big spoiler alert out here as well.
You don't know this but I am actually doing someone that a lot of people correlate with
your case because with the bonus episodes of course I know who you're doing, we always
know who you're trying to do for those.
The person that I'm bringing correlates somewhat to your case and it's gonna be a two-parter.
So we're gonna get three times the action.
You had mentioned that last episode that it was something to do with my case which I
found very interesting but now that I know it's a two-parter I'm like okay who has that
much information out there.
We're gonna get two weeks worth of three really great episodes.
That one's gonna be a two-parter and the other one's gonna be the part two and the
Patreon all in the same day.
So that's a lot.
Get ready.
Get fukin' ready.
So we got an Instagram message from Lisa.
Hi Lisa.
I'm so excited to see Louie soon.
So Lisa messaged and said, hi ladies.
This is Lisa, Louie's mom.
I so love your podcast to pieces with a bunch of exclamation points.
These cases in LA and Orange County give me the heaps and jeeps for sure because I lived
there.
It was such a scary time.
I was hoping you would do the Hillside Stranglers.
This was in about 1979 and I was 19.
Also I'm intrigued with your short segments on mental health.
It's a relief to hear the explanations.
Thank you so much.
Thanks Lisa.
I love that so much.
First of all the request, that has been on my list.
It's been on my list for a while because I listened and I will absolutely be doing that
case and it won't be a Patreon case.
It'll be a regular case.
Wasn't Gary Ridgway, they thought he was the Hillside Strangler too.
Yeah, they have a bunch of different.
Yeah, Leon, Gary Leon Ridgway.
They have a bunch of different people that were killing.
That was my ankle popping.
Yeah, ankle popping.
You were surprised.
It was a bunch of different people that were at large during that time and they would
frequently get the victims mixed up because the MOs were kind of similar so they didn't
really know who was responsible for what crimes or I guess what infamous nickname was responsible
for what crimes.
So we will definitely, I will definitely look into that because it is on my list and I
remember hearing a lot about them probably a couple years ago and I was like, oh my gosh,
this is a deep dive.
That's absolutely incredible to me that there was this spike of serial killers around the
70s in California specifically but if you think about it, about the time, so many people
were traveling to California because of the movement, like this counterculture movement.
So it was a lot of people that were flocking to California that weren't from there, had
no friends, no family, you know, just reminds me of Kimberly Compton when she had just arrived
in whatever it was, Illinois.
Yeah.
It was so scary.
It was fucking Stefani, fuck that guy.
Seriously, there's a lot going on over there.
Well, again, thank you guys for joining us.
Sorry, I don't know why I said that.
There's a lot going on.
There's a lot going on over there.
Yeah, I laugh at inappropriate times, okay, it happens.
It happens.
I also want to mention that we have gotten a lot of really good responses to the Spotify
polls, I know that it's a little bit different than like Apple reviews, but I've been looking
at those and we've gotten a lot of really nice responses, people saying that they really
like our content, things like that.
We have analytics on Spotify just like we do on Apple, so we can see where y'all are
listening from.
We actually have a lot more, it's like demographics, like people's of course on their profile,
and it shows us like our age range and stuff of people that listen, so that's pretty cool.
That is awesome.
So how does that work on Spotify?
I have Spotify and I have a son Spotify, but I don't remember seeing a poll.
So at the very end of the episode, it's only on like some of the episodes.
I think it's on like half, but at the end, I think when you click on the show notes in
the episode, there's a question on it, it says, what do you think of this episode, or
what did you think of this episode, and you can answer it right there.
Okay, I see.
So if you want to pepper in your comments on a specific episode, that's where you can
do it.
That's Spotify.
And then lastly, I just want to mention, I know I talked about Jennifer the other day,
the one of the people that I met at the Hooks game, and she had said that she was listening
from the beginning.
Like she was like, I really like you guys, I'm going to listen from the beginning, and
she's like, if you guys drop something new, I listen to that and then I go back to where
I was from.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, she was really enjoying Randy Kraft.
She said a lot of good things about that.
Oh, nice.
And then she messaged me like the other day and said, oh my gosh, my stomach hurts from
laughing.
I just finished the top 10 rarest mental disorders, and then in quotes, she put, come
to jizzya.
Fuck.
It's like, Jesus Christ.
Come to jizzya.
That needs to be on a t-shirt somewhere.
For real.
She's like, the bloopers were hilarious.
And I was like, thank you because honestly, like, I think you and I were like a touch
of weary.
We didn't want it to sound like we were making fun of anything.
And it was just the fact that I couldn't say it.
That was so funny to us.
So I'm glad that you loved the harmless bloopers because we love harmless bloopers and it's
just something that'll always stick in my mind.
And then Jennifer, if you're listening, we actually found out that, how is that word
actually pronounced?
Because I still didn't pronounce it right after the whole thing.
It's kufungisya.
No, remember, I said it was kufungisya, but you said it was kufungisisa, right?
Isisa, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, that shit, I still said it wrong.
I literally just popped it into Google and I was like, pronunciation and it did it.
I did it.
I did too.
And here's the thing, like when I wrote it phonetically, it was correct like that, but
I got so caught up on saying it wrong that when I thought I had it, I was like, I have
it.
I got it.
I fucking got this.
Totally got this.
So it's funny that you said that Jennifer was talking about Randy Kraft because that's
who I thought was the Gary Ridgway one.
It's not Randy Kraft that they thought was part of the hillside strangler.
Yeah.
And then the, I think Patrick Kearney was also kind of there as well.
Or was it Kearney?
I can't remember.
I think all of it.
They're all California though.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah.
But anyway, thank you guys all so much for the awesome comments and continuing to give
us some good ratings and reviews.
Please continue to do that.
It really helps us to get more listeners and more of our face out there, our name out
there, the more that you like and share and review and stuff like that.
So thank you all for doing that.
And I will shut up now so Koelke can do her mental breakdown.
Mental breakdown.
Side note, I think that we were both incorrect because it just dawned on me.
It's the freeway killer that all of them are mistaken to be.
Kearney Kraft and then William Bonin is the real freeway killer.
Is there only one freeway though?
Oh yeah.
I mean, come on.
You can't be the freeway.
You don't own that.
You don't own highway.
Bonin.
Geez.
Ugh.
Anyway, there's just so much in our brains all the time about true crime.
They should leave them like, yeah, freeway, highway, parkway.
There you go.
Killers.
All right.
Are you ready?
I know people are typing out a long message right now like Kearney said, you were going
to shut the fuck up.
Go ahead.
I'm super excited.
So this is kind of different than what we normally do.
This is not going to be a full right.
Okay, we always say that.
We always say that.
But today we're going to talk about strange laws.
Okay.
I don't think we've ever really touched on that before.
It's just a little fun and ridiculous and totally, this is totally going to be an easy
episode of all of them.
Totally easy.
Please tell me that you have the one I'm thinking of.
I will wait and if you don't have it, I'll mention it at the end because one of my favorite
strange laws is the Texas law.
Okay, so here's another thing.
I'm going to do all 50 states, but I'm not going to do all 50 states today.
Oh.
I'm just going to do 20 and they're going to be alphabetical order.
Okay.
And then we're not going to be in there.
Yeah, we're not going to be in there.
So half of you all, well more than half because they only did 20.
I didn't do 25.
So can I just say mine because mine's in Texas?
No, you got to wait for part two.
Okay, I'll save it.
You can tell me afterwards.
Okay.
So we're going to start alphabetically, right?
Oh my gosh.
You know I can save the states alphabetically.
Hey.
I was born after 1995.
That's you because I didn't get that.
Okay, well I learned it on my own when I was like in college.
So I didn't even get that in school either.
I've always wanted to do like the state challenge and be like, can you write down every state
in like 15, 20 minutes or whatever it is.
Yeah, that's me.
And I can never play that game with anybody because everybody knows the song and I don't
know the song.
I know the song.
You just write them alphabetically.
Okay, go.
Number one, Alabama.
Alabama.
Okay, you can tell me each one.
Okay.
Thank you.
That's what I wanted to do and it would be annoying.
Oh, okay, that's fine.
Okay.
I have been one of those days where I feel really annoying.
Today?
Yeah, I probably am being really annoying but I feel extra annoying in my head.
Yeah, that was yesterday for me.
I felt fucking annoying.
Like any time I'd text anybody I'd be like, tell me if I'm getting annoying.
Yeah.
Like, ugh.
But then I have to remind myself that anybody that's listening to this listens literally
to listen to our voices.
Yeah.
So I guess I can't really be annoying on my own fucking.
Absolutely.
I get scared when I walk up to the bar and I hear like someone with their phone out listening
to us.
Oh my gosh.
It's happened at least a few times.
What?
Yeah.
I'm like, I'm already here.
I might as well go home.
Love it.
I might as well go home.
Okay, Alabama.
It is illegal to walk around with ice cream in your back pocket.
Really?
Can you guess why?
Because it melts.
Because it's sticky and nobody likes that.
Back in the day, horse dealers would actually put ice cream in their back pockets in order
to steal like a horse.
So the horse would actually follow the person with a suit in their pocket.
Because they like sugar cubes.
Isn't that cute?
Do you have the law and then like a fun fact about it on everyone?
Not on everyone.
Some of them are a little weird.
Some of them are just, duh.
Some of them, you know, some of them have an exclamation.
Others kind of don't.
Okay.
But yeah.
So essentially they would be like, I don't know what you're talking about.
This horse just followed me home.
And they couldn't be, they couldn't be tried for horse stealing.
Can they have carrots in their back pocket?
I don't know.
I feel like it's a loofah.
It's like it's on ice cream.
Well, apparently Alabama is not the only one that has this law.
But it, there wasn't really anything else interesting about Alabama.
Sorry, Hillary.
Sorry.
Sorry, Hillary.
She lives in Florida now.
She knows.
True.
What's number two?
Alaska.
It is illegal to view a moose from an airplane.
To look at it?
To view a moose from an airplane.
You cannot be looking for meese on the ground.
Hunting moose is legal, but it is illegal to scout the same day as a hunt.
So in order to protect the moose, they're given 24 hours for the people to scout.
They're given 24 hours to move from the area.
Oh, that's actually really sweet.
So scouting by air is prohibited unless you plan to hunt 24 hours after the sighting of
the moose.
Wow.
So, like, literally you can get a, like, or you're like flying over Alaska and you're
like, oh, shit, I just saw a moose.
Oh, god, oh, god, look what I do.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, what do I do?
What do I do?
The marshal's already standing there.
You fucking look at that moose?
Huh?
Yeah.
I fucking look at that moose.
I saw you look at that moose.
The moose is so big you can't fucking miss it.
Wait a minute, but if you saw me see the moose, didn't you see the moose?
Yeah, exactly.
Inception.
Number three, Arizona.
It is illegal for a person to have more than one missing tooth while smiling.
I'm fucking sorry.
How do you control that?
So this law is actually set in Tombstone, Arizona, and this law was put into place to
keep those who practiced poor dental hygiene away from the town as poor dental hygiene
was associated with those who were vagrants and criminals at the time.
That's fucked up.
What about children?
Fucking profiling.
That's a difference.
As an adult.
Yeah.
I literally want to go crazy.
I know, mine a little bit too.
That's fucking bizarre.
Isn't that interesting?
It's kind of bizarre.
I mean, it's definitely one of those things.
A lot of these laws that I'm going to talk about or continue to talk about rather, they
still exist, but mostly because these laws existed in a time where there was no expiration
date on the laws.
And so they're just still there, but nobody ever enforces them.
They just have yet to be expunged.
Other than the Alaska one, that is still very much true.
Yeah, yeah, that makes sense.
Alabama law, who wants to walk around with ice cream in your back pocket anyways?
Number four.
Arkansas.
It is illegal to pronounce the state as Arkansas.
No, it's not.
Oh my God.
I want to go there and do that just to say that I forgot the law.
Yeah.
Why is this one Arkansas?
And this one is not Arkansas.
America explains.
Explained.
So the spelling and the pronunciation of Arkansas has changed many times since it was first
explored by French people.
The Kapaa native people were called the Arkansas, which meant the South Wind.
Arkinci, so spelled A-R-K-A-N-S-E-A, Arkinci kind of is what it looks like, is how the
land was originally spelled, but soon became a Kanza, so A-K-A-N-S-A, there's no N.
So A-C-A-N-S-A, which was when the French explored the area.
They named it a Kanza.
Other maps in the area included the Arkansas River and referred to the people of the land
as Le Arkinci, which was French.
And in 1881, a resolution was proposed that the true pronunciation of Arkansas was just
that, Arkansas, to preserve the memory of the native people who originally were the inhabitants
of the land, but the spelling would remain Arkinciass, which is a nod to the French explorers
that explored the land.
So anybody that's listening from non-America, if you didn't know, it's pronounced Arkansas.
Arkansas.
And don't say it if you go there.
Yeah, you're going to get fined.

Number five.
California.
I had to think about it.
It's technically illegal to cry on the witness stand, which we've seen plenty of people cry
on the witness stand.
Lyle and Eric Menendez come to mind.
They're great examples.
However, it is technically illegal, as it may sway a jury one way or another.
Usually the judge or a lawyer will request a small recess or for some time for the witness
to gather themselves.
That makes sense, although I can't see any situation where I would be a witness and not
cry because if I was being a witness it'd be for something fucking serious.
Yeah, absolutely.
I'd probably cry.
Yeah.
I mean, it wouldn't be like you're witnessing a man with ice cream in his back pocket.
It's a long laugh.
Have you ever heard that when Wiz Khalifa will do that on stage?
I'll go, look, that's a long laugh on your bitch ass.
No.
Me and Casey say that all the time.
Never heard that.
Well, his laugh is different than how I laughed.
But yeah.
Number six.
Colorado.
In veil, it is illegal to collide with obstacles while skiing.
Yeah, let me just not do that.
So you have to be good at skiing apparently.
No, god damn it, I want to hit that tree.
Damn.
Dang.
Under your responsibility code, you are accountable for any accidents that you may have while
you're on the slopes.
Many states have actually adopted this code for safety reasons and the code is as follows.
Oh.
You want to know about the code?
Yes.
I looked it up in veil and then I saw another one in Maine or something and I was like,
oh, it's like literally everywhere, so this is the actual code that is the same across
the board in all the states that have this.
Stay in control.
You must be able to stop or avoid other people or objects.
So don't be a nuthead.
So don't ski if you can't.
If you can't.
People ahead or downhill of you have the right of way.
You must avoid them.
Stop only when you're visible from above and do not restrict traffic.
Look uphill and avoid others before starting downhill or entering a trail.
You're responsible for preventing runaway equipment.
Read and obey all warning signs and hazards and markings.
Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.
You must be able to know how to load, ride and unload on lifts safely if you need assistance
asked for a lift attendant.
Do not use lifts or terrain when impaired by alcohol or drugs.
If you're involved in a collision or an incident, share your contact information with each other
and the ski area employee.
So these rules are obviously put into place for a reason as these rules may prevent injury
or even death.
I'd rather honestly take the fine than fuck up and die.
Yeah, for sure.
I was going to say, only you can prevent wildfires.
Yeah, only you can prevent forest fires.
Oh, damn, I said it wrong.
Yeah, forest fires.
Just don't keep the bear.
Yeah, I just thought that was really interesting and this was actually enacted in recent months.
Recently, I want to say it was like 2022.
Oh, wow.
2022.
I said that right.
I always think like 2002.
2022.
And what's interesting to me is that you know that Gwyneth Paltrow just had that ski incident?
She went to court because some guy collided with her.
No, I didn't know that.
Yeah, so some guy collided with her and now she's going back and saying, well, now he
owes me money.
He should have been responsible.
He should have whatever.
And I mean, it just happened earlier this year, I want to say.
Which I don't think any, I don't think, I don't remember what the outcome was.
I didn't follow it.
There's bigger things going on in the world.
Yeah, like vagina candles.
Vagina candles?
Vagina candles.
She has a, yeah, in her, she has a vagina candle.
Oh, does she?
She has a candle that says, this is what my vagina smells like.
No, she does not.
Yeah, she does.
Why would you want that?
I don't know.
It smells like Gwyneth Paltrow's vagina.
I don't care to know what that smells like.
That and beef broth, I guess.
It probably just smells like beef broth.
Some people care to know what that smells like apparently.
Number seven.
Connect I cut.
Connecticut.
In 1950s, in the 1950s, it was apparently illegal to eat in your car.
I can see what, like while driving or just in general?
Just in general.
That's weird.
Although there is no such law now, back then the law was put into place in an effort to
cut down on littering on the sides of roads.
That's a good point.
That makes a lot of sense.
Yeah, it's not a bad thing to consider now.
I can see while you're driving because of course it's like reckless driving.
Yeah.
But it can be.
Right.
It's reckless driving when I do it.
I can only do that if I have a passenger to help me with the little foil or the little
baggie or like nachos from a fucking tin yesterday in the car.
In the car?
I was on the passenger seat.
I was getting salsas.
I was on 35.
It was dangerous.
I can't do that.
I was hungry.
I cannot do that.
I've definitely been the passenger where I just feed the driver.
Yeah.
Like with my own hands.
Like one for me, one for you.
One for me, one for you.
Yeah.
Number eight?
Delaware.
Actually nightclubs in Delaware that allow dancing may not serve alcohol at all no matter
when dancing is occurring.
That's good.
The law states, quote, no person shall sell, give, dispense, provide, or keep any cause
to be sold given dispensed provided or cuts any alcoholic beverage on the premises of
any dance hall establishment.
Why?
I guess it's dangerous.
Essentially, the real life footloose is what I put here.
Maybe for safety reasons or maybe much similar laws where you can't like touch while dancing.
There's other laws where you can't touch people when dancing.
That was such a very specific noise.
Maybe they think that's how babies are made.
I don't know.
I think that it really was probably like I said, it's because drinking lowers your inhibitions.
It's probably safer.
Like nobody's going to be banging it out.
Delaware explain.
Number nine?
Florida.
It is illegal to cage or confine a pregnant pig.
Which is good.
I think that makes sense.
Right?
Of course.
It should be illegal to cage and confine any pregnant thing.
Of course, this is for the best interest of the animals and hog hunters actually face
pretty big fines if they accidentally catch a hog in a live trap that is pregnant.
Wow.
That makes sense.
Number ten?
Georgia.
In Jonesboro, it is illegal to say oh boy.
No.
Oh boy.
That's a rough one.
This originated when the term boy was technically a derogatory term when calling a man this.
It's like saying gar-san to a server.
It is said that a young person typically of an under-resourced community that was proposition
for work would be called a boy.
Like boy.
Oh boy.
Yeah, that's, I mean, it makes sense because it has racist connotations as well.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
It's definitely meant to undermine someone or yeah, absolutely.
Eleven.
Hawaii.
Any person convicted of owning, transporting, or possessing any snake or restricted without
a permit, or prohibited plant, animal, or microorganism, maybe, find up to $200,000,
imprisoned not more than three years, and pay for all costs relating to the capture or
eradication of the pest.
You said that.
That's a mouthful.
So according to the Hawaii Department of Agriculture website, they have no natural predators.
Snakes do not have any natural predators there in Hawaii, and they pose a serious threat
to Hawaii's environment because they compete with the native animal populations for food
and habitat.
They don't have owls there?
Or like any kind of like game bird?
I guess not.
Like predatory bird?
An owl?
I don't know.
What would a Hawaiian owl look like?
They're probably, I don't know.
But you know owls are eaten, or snakes are eaten by eagles or cocks or owls.
Yeah.
Mongoose.
I don't know what that is.
A mongoose.
They eat snakes.
I don't know what this is.
I was just remembering that Snoop Dogg video where he's like, oh look at them mongooses.
Like what you doing over there mongoose?
Oh he's not going to eat that snake.
Oh my gosh.
It's a fucking honey badger or a mongoose.
But they eat snakes, yeah.
So I guess they don't have those.
Hmm.
Quote, under the Amnesty Program, illegal animals may be turned into any HDOA or Hawaiian
Department of Agriculture, Office Honolulu Zoo, I think it's Peno-Peno-wa Zoo on Hawaii
Island or any humane society.
No questions asked and no fines assessed.
If you just drop it off or turn it in or whatever.
Yeah, isn't that interesting?
Yeah, theory.
Number 12.
Adho.
It is illegal for anyone 88 or older to ride a motorcycle.
Well no shit.
That's a little ageist.
Well I'm sorry, it's dangerous though like honestly, like I'm not trying to be rude.
We can assume that this is for safety reasons.
However, most studies show that you're more likely to be in a motorcycle accident under
the age of 40.
That's very true.
I misspoke.
Do whatever you want, 80 years old.
Right?
Yeah, so they suggest you just avoid Idaho if you're on very long motorcycle trips.
Dang.
Number 13.
Okay.
Illinois.
I just sing this long.
It is illegal to address a single man as a single woman using the word mister.
She must address him as master.
Shut the fuck up.
Yeah.
Like that's not a typo.
Who's kinky grandfather is running around making these laws?
Master.
Yeah, a single woman has to refer to a bachelor essentially as a master.
I have no idea.
It's gross.
They had another gross one, but I didn't put it in here.
Another gross one.
This is gross.
That's so...
Like even if you don't know him?
Yeah, what the fuck?
Like do you check for the ring first and then you're like, master.
He's like, how dare you call me that?
I'm married.
Number 14.
Indiana.
It is illegal to bathe between October and March.
No, the fuck it's not.
Of course.
Bathe or shower.
Anything.
Take a...
Clean yourself?
Clean yourself.
Well, I mean, no, but like, I guess bathe.
I don't know.
Just a bath.
It can't be just bath.
Maybe just bath.
It can't be clean.
Well, they didn't have showers when they made this law, so of course this was before indoor
heating and air conditioning and oftentimes bathing and freezing at temperatures could
cause medical emergencies or even death from hypothermia.
Okay, yeah, I get that.
But like...
And again, it's just one of those that never went away because, you know...
They'd be fucking stinking us.
Grandpa's laying in the bucket back there.
Ugh.
So I'm thinking that maybe you would wash yourself with like a hand towel.
Yeah.
You know?
Hmm.
Number 15.
Iowa.
In Indianola, Iowa, ice cream vendors are banned from operating on city streets.
So essentially it was there to, again, protect the local ice cream parlors from going out of
business because everything started becoming mobile, right?
Yeah.
Local kids in Warren County ever heard the joyful sound of an ice cream truck on a hot
summer day?
That's so sad.
That sounded like an SNL, like, news skit.
Did it?
Like somebody fed me that?
Yeah.
I'll be Jimmy Fallon.
That's fine.
I love that.
Local ice cream trucks can only be operated on special occasions with the permission
of the county.
Hmm.
We're almost done here.
I just, like, kind of make sense, but I don't know.
I mean, I get it, but like, that's kind of ridiculous now.
Yeah.
I was at Casey's baseball game today and literally four different ice cream trucks came over
in a matter of like two hours.
Hell yeah, it's good money.
No, I made sure I didn't go over there.
Why?
They had like a mangonada truck and then they had like a raspas truck or whatever and then
they had like a regular ice cream truck and then they had a paleta truck and I was like,
fuck, I'm gonna call these kids.
Damn.
That's so good.
There used to be a bartender at a job I used to work at.
They used to make the best mangonadas ever.
That was so good.
The one that, this girl that is her boyfriend plays on the team, she got one and it had
like green liquid Lucas in it though and it turned like the whole cup like blue.
It was kind of gross.
It was like, ugh.
That's Chamoy.
But it was green.
Yeah, there's a different, there's a green type of chamoy.
Yeah, I just, I like, I don't like the red chamoy.
Oh yeah.
I didn't taste it.
It's just, it's gross.
It's way more like sour-y, like lime-y.
I don't like a sour, I'm not a sour person either.
I like just regular chamoy.
I'll put that shit on anything though.
Oh yeah.
I think it was Chamoy Day like last Wednesday.
Yeah, I saw your pictures.
Yeah.
That was jealous.
Thanks.
It was really yummy.
I had some mango with chamoy.
So I had.
Number 16.
Kansas.
Not our Kansas.
In Kansas City, Kansas, saying the name George Washington without adding the phrase
bless be his name can lead you in a fine of up to 50 cents.
Hallowed be thy name.
Blessed be his name like the Lord.
Yeah.
What the hell?
George Washington.
Their shit was all fucked up, man.
Come on.
I'll pay the 50 cents just to see someone give me a fine.
Just slam it on the counter.
Whatever we borrow you're at.
Oh shit, I'll say it twice.
Okay.
A dollar.
It's like a swear jar.
Of course this law no longer is in use, but it is interesting nonetheless.
The exchange rate for 50 cents at the time from 1880 would be $15.
Oh shit, that's kind of pricey.
That's kind of pricey.
That's a name.
Blessed be his name.
17.
Kentucky.
Women are not allowed to purchase a new hat without the authorization of their husband.
The colonel.
Call me the colonel.
This law went into effect in 1922, but probably hasn't been enforced for decades if really
ever.
Mostly this law would come because the purchase of a fancy hat, right?
Like a fancy hat.
It's been more typically the breadwinners, it's specifically expensive hat was ran through
your husband first, but likely there were also other significantly expensive things
that you probably also had to ask your husband permission for.
It's more written down.
Yeah, it just sounds more ridiculous to say a hat.
18.
Louisiana.
Biting somebody with your real teeth is simple assault.
Biting them with false teeth is considered aggravated assault.
Because I guess they're stronger or what?
So false teeth are considered a weapon at that point because you're using a non, like
an object essentially.
That actually makes a lot of sense.
That is strange.
That is bizarre.
Huh.
So what it, I'm not going to go there.
All right.
19.
Maine.
It is illegal to post advertisements in a cemetery, which sounds like just one of those
things that I never really thought of.
I was like, yeah, come to think of it, I never see advertisements in a cemetery.
Why would you?
Why would you, right?
Well, apparently in Maine, there was an issue at some point that arrival burial providers
were trying to obtain more customers.
So they would advertise for their plots or whatever on other people's cemetery property.
So yeah, pretty sure it's illegal anywhere now because it's considered private property.
Yeah, it should be.
Number 20.
Maryland.
In Maryland, it is illegal to eat and swim in the ocean at the same time.
This was believed that it was put into place for safety for the swimmers, choking hazards
and attracting wildlife, or just a few of the reasons why you shouldn't do that.
But it will not result in a fine if you happen to bring a flotation device with you.
So you can bring a flotation, like you can be like an or aft and eat it.
Just eat it.
Eat it.
Just a little bit in her tube.
Just eating it safe.
As soon as you get off of it.
Hey, kiss that guy.
Like a little float.
Yeah, exactly.
Little floaties on your arms.
Just eat nahogi.
That's hilarious.
I love that.
So we're going to stop there.
And again, I will bring you 20 more on another day.
And I have yet to decide what I want to do with my other like 10.
Yeah.
I'm thinking maybe federal laws would be interesting to implement.
But yeah, it's not going to be anytime soon.
It's not going to be my very next mental breakdown.
It's probably going to be in a few months or so.
But again, I wanted to do something fun and lighthearted, something different.
And it's been on my mind for a little bit.
And especially because all of our cases are going to be so intense this next week and
a half.
Oh my gosh.
And we have a lot to do, a lot of content to bring you guys.
And I'm really excited about that.
And guess what?
It's already fucking June is almost over and we're going to the podcast festival in like
a month.
Not prepared.
We might just have to drive every night because we haven't got a hotel room yet.
I mean, I guess they could.
I don't know if that's not going to happen.
I'm going to stay with Lindsay Austin.
That's true.
Well, we'll figure it out for you guys because we definitely want to meet all you guys.
Thank you for buying tickets.
Again, if you don't know about that, we are going to be hosts at the True Crime and Paranormal
podcast festival in Austin, Texas this August from the 25th to the 27th.
That is available to purchase tickets through our DAK website, diagnosingandkiller.com.
If you click on events, I think, and you click on there, you can do a discount of 15% off
with our code DAKPOD for 15% off those tickets for sure.
Do you have anything else that was really interesting?
No, it was just, yeah, it was just different.
I think the only thing that I have left to say is send us pictures of you with our merch
that would be really helpful.
Let us know if we have consent to use your photo on the website.
If not, I mean, just the Instagram alone would be really cool too.
Yeah, absolutely.
Well, we will see you guys next time with part one of my next two parter.
I haven't done a two parter in a long time and you are going to be excited to hear this
one.
I think that you know, I mean, you have to know a lot about this person, but I don't
think you know like the nitty gritty details.
And this is highly, highly, highly requested.
Is it Manson?
No, it's not Manson.
But we're getting closer to it.
Don't guess again.
Okay, okay.
Love you.
Bye.
