Crooked River Cast, Show 80 for the week of October 26.
Halloween yard junk, inflatables, and a glowing Pennywise that follows you out the driveway.
Vivek Ramaswamy’s Acton-mother ad. Mike DeWine tells him to pull it. Trump piles on DeWine. Step-dad Cledith Arthur and the Mahoning County record. Hosts’ take: two things can be true.
Fake polls: Wedgwood Polling admits it fabricated surveys, including an August Ohio poll putting Sherrod Brown and Amy Acton ahead. SoCal Strategies, tied to the same person, wipes its site. Aggregators scramble less than two weeks before Election Day. Poly Market digression included.
Ohio lore: the Cleveland Torso Murderer / Mad Butcher of Kingsbury Run, 1935–1938. Eliot Ness, Francis Edward Sweeney, and a case that never closed.
Mansfield’s Ohio State Reformatory: haunted house on the highway, Shawshank set, and a former inmate’s hard-time stories. Architecture meant to uplift. Death did the opposite.
Good Things: Cleveland Haunt Club’s haunted garage sale, and Circleville’s 2,455-pound record pumpkin. Pumpkin death is a bad way to go.
Next week: election episode before Nov. 3. October surprises teaser on the way out.
