1807: The Man Who Was Hanged Twice

If a tree falls in Genesee County, New York, can anyone hear it? We aren't sure. But, if you cut it down you might get murdered for it. In this episode, the ONUC gals discuss James McLean aka 'The Man Who Was Hanged Twice' and his victims William Orr and Archibald McLaughlin. The gals talk about militias, why you should always read what you're signing, and why 'hanged to death' actually makes sense, in some cases. 

Trigger Warning Level: None (YAY!)
