Episode 79 - Brenda Ann Spencer & the Mandela Effect

This week Erika covers the story of Brenda Ann Spencer. On January 29, 1979 she would become the first female school shooter in America. At the time of the shooting Brenda was only 17 years old and lived with her father across the street from the Grover Cleveland Elementary school in San Diego, California. Brenda would end up killing two innocent men, injuring another, and injuring 8 innocent children that terrifying morning.

Erika was drinking a white Exotic Blend from Menage a Trois. It was so good, very refreshing and perfect for spring and summer.

Then Amber covers the Mandela Effect. "The Mandela Effect refers to a situation in which a large mass of people believes that an event occurred when it did not." There are scientific explanations as to why this happens, as well as the more logical explanation which is that we are living in a simulation. Amber will go over a few of the most popular pop culture examples and quiz Erika to find out if she too has been inflicted with the Mandela effect.

Amber was drinking a South Eastern Australian Red from Alinta Ranch. She really enjoyed it!
