Episode 86 - The Papin Sisters & US Airways Flight 1549
This week, Amber covers the story of the Papin sisters. Christine and Léa Papin were two French sisters who worked together as live-in maids. They were convicted of murdering their employer's wife and daughter in Le Mans, France on February 2, 1933.
Amber was drinking a 2019 French Vin Rouge from Chene Sage. She only had compliments about it.

In this week’s episode, Erika covers the heroic and crazy water landing of US Airways Flight 1549. Chelsey “Sully” Sullenberger and Jeffrey Skiles knew they were in trouble when a flock of Canadian Geese flew straight into the plane and took out both engines. So, all decisions from that point on were a life and death situation for not only them and their crew but also the 150 passengers on board.
Erika was drinking a Pinot Grigio from Barefoot this week.
