This week the ONUC gals are talking about the infamous Hatfield-McCoy Feud. If you only know bits and pieces about the story, then you might not know how intense this family feud might have been. The militia in two states are threatened to be called in, there's a love story, and it all led to the final event the New Year's Massacre. The Hatfield-McCoy feud is the most infamous, longest, and bloodiest family feud in American history.

Bit of a content warning on this one! While there is no language involved... there's innuendo that might be a bit too close to the line for those with younger ears around.  

On this USBS we decided to mix it up a bit and show another side of the ONUC gals that you don't typically see. For this episode, Kayla found crazy news articles that make you think WTF were these people thinking. Kayla reads the articles to Leah who doesn't know what the articles are about and essentially chaos ensues. Two words: reptile. disfunction.

This case was NOT easy to find and seeing it's a FIRST for the United States it's honestly impossibly to understand why it's not more known. Cases like this are the reason this podcast exists. Pulling cases from the metaphorical back shelves of the library, dusting them off, and giving them a voice again. This week the gals are discussing America's first M'Naghten defense AKA America's first insanity defense.

Join the ONUC gals as they discuss the origins of the Kentucky Derby, what the Auburn System is, what a bifurcated jury is, exactly what the M'Naghten (or McNaughten depending on the source) Rules are in court, and the tragic case that combines an insanity plea, racism, and murder to expose a trifecta of all that is evil in this world.

What if the events of the Titanic happened in the 1840s? Could the events of the Titanic have been prevented? As it turns out the answers is, no. Because they did happen on the William Brown in 1842. The similarities? An iceberg, in April, and a lack of lifeboats. The difference? The captain went down with the Titanic and it's likely due to the trial against Alexander Holmes that we have to thank for the difference.

This week join the ONUC gals as they discuss the sinking of the William Brown, how Alexander Holmes ended up on trial, and how the rules of seamen changed forever.

Have you or someone you love ever skipped school? Did your parents think you were possessed by demons as a child? Most importantly, did you go on a multi state murder spree? If so, you could be entitled to compensation. Not really. But, it would make you 'America's First Public Enemy No. 1' AKA Samuel Green. 

This week the ONUC gals discuss the psychology of the frontal lobe (Kayla's favorite topic), the ongoing debate of nature vs. nurture, and the unfortunate early life of Samuel Green which led to him infamously earning the title of 'Public Enemy No. 1'.

How many US Navy ships are missing or presumed lost? Where they all swept away by a hurricane? Or is there something much more mysterious to blame?

This week the ONUC gals discuss the disappearance of the USS Epervier. Join them as they dive deep (get it? dive. deep.) into the US Navy, the disappearance of four other US Navy ships before the USS Epervier, and then get lost (literally and figuratively) in what some call the Hoodoo Sea, the Limbo of the Lost, The Devil's Triangle, or as you may know it... The Bermuda Triangle.

Thank you to all of our service persons and families who are a part (and not a part) of the ONUC family . Whether you serve for the United States or for your home country, we admire your bravery and appreciate you for your sacrifice to serve and protect.

In this episode, there is some slight background noise. The podcast mascots (Fletcher, Claire, and Nox) are the culprits and they apologize (not really) for the slight distraction.

It was called the 'Year of Miracles'. But, was it really? If brutal murder, earthquakes, and a squirrel migration in the millions is your ideal of a miracle then, maybe. This week the ONUC gals discuss the murder of George, the 'Year of Miracles', and how this case directly ties back to a previous episode. This was a wild year in the United States and that's why this is the longest episode we've done. Given the importance of this case, we aren't sorry for the length.
