Episode 10 - Jesse Pomeroy

Wow, we made it to episode 10! To capture this awesome milestone join me as I tell Emily all about Boston's boy torturer and killer, Jesse Pomeroy. Jesse's rein of terror took place in the 1870s, so I am taking you way back. Emily also shares with me a mocktail she found on TikTok (@themindfulmocktail) called a Simple Sunrise Mocktail. It is a super simple AF version of the classic tequila sunrise - just swap out the tequila with your zero proof tequila of choice. Ritual makes a pretty good tequila alternative, and there are several others out there on the market now including Spiritless, Free Spirits, and Sobrii. I have not personally tried these so cannot vouch for their flavor palette, but they are on my list to try :-)
