Five's A Crowd Podcast

Are superstitions just harmless habits, or do they still get in our heads? We're talking good luck, bad omens, childhood warnings, and the strange little rules we keep following—even when we know how ridiculous they sound.With Friday the 13th on the table, we compare familiar rituals and some much stranger folklore, then ask whether luck changes anything or just changes how we feel. Before that, we're catching up on travel, turning 40, unfinished hobbies, and teaching our kids to drive.Pull up a chair, tell us which superstition you still follow, and thank you for being part of this crowd!Timestamps:00:00 - Start!04:32 - Travel Stories and Family Catch-Up12:24 - Hobbies, Obsessions, and Unfinished Projects15:48 - Family Updates and Tangents29:40 - Turning 40 and Feeling Your Age35:41 - Getting Motivated to Work Out42:56 - Going Gray45:38 - Teaching Teens to Drive and Movie Detours54:32 - Our First Freeway Experiences57:48 - A Rough Landing01:00:25 - Superstitions We Still Follow01:09:18 - Good Luck, Bad Luck, and Familiar Rituals01:18:55 - Unlucky Numbers and Friday the 13th01:24:17 - Is Luck All in Your Head?01:25:13 - Unusual Superstitions and Strange Folklore01:33:14 - Your Superstitions and Goodbye#Superstitions #FridayThe13th #FivesACrowd #Podcast What's one superstition you KNOW sounds ridiculous... but still follow just in case?

Two brutal murders. A burned dress. A fortune at stake—and a jury that said not guilty.This week on Five's a Crowd, we're diving into the Lizzie Borden case: the 1892 murders of her father and stepmother, the suspicious details, and the questions that still make this story so hard to put down. From her barn alibi and the mysterious note to the broken hatchet and the maid's whereabouts, we debate what adds up—and what doesn't.Was money behind the murders? Could someone else have been involved? And would we have reached the same verdict as the jury?Pull up a seat, share your theory in the comments, and thank you for being part of this crowd!#LizzieBorden #TrueCrime #FivesACrowd #UnsolvedMysteries #TrueCrimePodcastReddit- Our Subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/FivesACrowd- Our Account: https://www.reddit.com/user/FivesACrowdPodcastFollow Our Personal AccountsAustin - https://allmylinks.com/austinspomerCam - https://www.instagram.com/effinburch/Chris - https://www.instagram.com/thechrishummel/Tony - https://www.instagram.com/theonlytonyc/Zach - https://www.instagram.com/zvanbeekum/P.O.

The best kind of compliance is malicious compliance. This week on Five's a Crowd, the guys are sharing the most unhinged, petty, and brilliant stories of people giving entitled neighbors, micromanaging bosses, and out-of-touch HR departments exactly what they asked for. From a student bringing a typewriter to a college lecture, to a neighbor who chopped down the wrong plants and lost 11 feet of his own backyard, these stories prove that sometimes following the rules is the best form of revenge. #MaliciousCompliance #PettyRevenge #BadBosses #EntitledNeighbors #WorkplaceDrama #FivesACrowd #Podcast #Storytime Follow Our Personal AccountsAustin - https://allmylinks.com/austinspomerCam - https://www.instagram.com/effinburch/Chris - https://www.instagram.com/thechrishummel/Tony - https://www.instagram.com/theonlytonyc/Zach - https://www.instagram.com/zvanbeekum/P.O.
