  • The League of Lady Poisoners - Interview with Author and Illustrator Lisa Perrin

    The League of Lady Poisoners - Interview with Author and Illustrator Lisa Perrin
    Dec 7 2023

    Do women really use poison as their murder weapon of choice more than men? That is the question author and illustrator Lisa Perrin set out to answer, and you might be surprised by what she discovered. Released in September of this year, The League of Lady Poisoners delves into stories of women from all over the globe, some you know and some you don't, but the common thread between them being their means -- and sometimes, even their motives.

    Join Briana as she interviews Lisa Perrin. You can look forward to a candid conversation about the book writing process, some of their favorite stories from the collection, and why Lisa's friends no longer invite her out to lunch.

    You can get your copy of The League of Lady Poisoners: Illustrated True Stories of Dangerous Women from anywhere books are sold, or by following this link.

  • Triflers Need Not Apply: The Venomous Belle Gunness

    Triflers Need Not Apply: The Venomous Belle Gunness
    Sep 7 2023
    On April 28th, 1908, news of the Gunness home having gone up in flames spread quickly through LaPorte, Indiana. Some recalled the dire cries of warning coming from the farm’s owner, Belle Gunness, that her farmhand had threatened to burn the home down with her and her children inside, and it seemed like he had finally acted on it. Four bodies were found in the wreckage of the home, but upon closer inspection, a more macabre picture started to take shape. Although there's no real way of knowing how many fell by her hands, she's estimated to have killed 28 people throughout her life and gotten away with it... by faking her own death? Join us this week as we take a look at this fascinating case of greed turned butchery.

Mindless teenage chatter

If your 12 this podcast is for you. Silly schoolgirl comments and a lot of giggling.

they aren't very thorough.

i could only listen to part of episode 1 as their research consisted of watching a terrible movie and then reading a Wikipedia article. they speculate about 1940 forensics, don't know what Texas Rangers are and generally sound like they didn't put any effort into this. do not recommend.
