  • #586 - Never Trust Your Cousin - Clanton, Alabama
    Apr 11 2025

    This week, in Clanton, Alabama, when a woman is found, brutally murdered, in her trailer, the main suspect is someone who was stalking her, but he has a solid alibi. This brings detectives to a more disturbing conclusion. The woman's cousin was seeing a man with an extremely troubled past. When we find out just how troubled, it's no surprise that he could do something like this, but who was helping him definitely is!!


    Along the way, we find out that peaches aren't just in Georgia, that there are consequences when you have a truly terrible childhood, and that sometimes, you just have to beg for the death penalty for yourself!!

  • #585 - Serial Killer's Secret Graveyard - Kingston Township, Pennsylvania
    Apr 10 2025

    This week, in Kingston Township, Pennsylvania, what begins as a simple search for a missing criminal pharmacist, quickly turns into the discovery of a makeshift graveyard, in a man's yard, that may have up to 12 burned, bashed & buried bodies. The more investigation that happens, the more the layers begin to peel off, revealing a brutal serial killer & his accomplices! But will a homemade cemetery, in his own yard, be enough to convict??


    Along the way, we find out pierogis are best eaten, when thrown from a parade float, that the more people you have helping you murder, the more people there is to tell on you, and that if you're going to bury a dozen bodies, you might want to do it, away from your own home!!

  • #584 - Killer Homecoming King - Powell, Wyoming
    Apr 4 2025

    This week, in Powell, Wyoming, a college girl's disappearance from a dorm party sends the whole town on a massive search. It's a mystery, until one particular student arrives at his dorm, covered in blood. His roommates decide to turn him in, but that's just the start. He lies about what happened, until confronted with the evidence. When a truly dark tale emerges, we find out about a very creepy past, making it obvious, he was stopped before he could become a serial killer!!


    Along the way, we find out that it's hard to ride a bicycle during a Wyoming winter, that nobody can predict what will happen to the homecoming king, in the future, and that no matter what your story is, evidence always tells the real story!!

Creative take on true crime!

I started listening to this podcast a few years ago, and it is one of the few that I still listen to and download weekly. The stories are true, the hosts are funny and smart, and each episode stands completely alone. As someone who has lived in a few small towns, I like that all the stories are from small towns. The episodes that featured towns in my state were always really interesting.

Laughed for too hard at this one!

I have listened for a while, but I haven't laughed so hard and enjoyed my commute so much in a while. Please come to Asheville, NC!

Great great podcast!!!!

Love the hosts! Love the stories! I listen and re-listen to every episode. Embarrassingly, I can go verbatim with some of them. Warning: Possibly addictive. You will not regret it, give them a listen.

Thieving Italian Nonnas

The episode where your grandma steals the body of christ almost made me crash my car from laughing. I'm sure my Nonna would have done the same thing if she knew where the church kept the bread
