On this hilarious and unexpectedly heartfelt episode of Miller Morning Madhouse, we continue our conversation with Elizabeth Benedict, the Madhouse's newest true crime detective. From the scandalous stories of Miller Beach's past to a surprising deep dive into local trivia night traditions, Elizabeth holds her own as the chaos unfolds.
Of course, with Josh Scramble at the production helm, there are plenty of unexpected twists—think wacky sound effects, food-related trivia teasers, and a wild tangent about Bill Cosby and Doobie Brothers theology. Plus, Jerry Pancake gives us his trademark musings about parenting in the '70s, local swinger culture, and the eternal question: "What would Jesus play on his soundtrack?"
🎶 Music in This Episode:
- Intro: "Jesus Is Just Alright" by The Doobie Brothers
