  • #592 - Murder Texts Are Forever - Clifton, Arizona
    May 2 2025

    This week, in Clifton, Arizona, forgotten text messages solve the case, when a man is killed in what seems like an incident of road rage, until they discover that 14 shots were fired at the victim, leading detectives to believe that it's very personal. There are several suspects, including his fiance, who acted suspiciously & his ex-wife, who he was battling for child custody. Then there's whoever has been stalking, and taking pictures of him. It turns out to be more diabolical than anyone could have thought!!


    Along the way, we find out that sometimes a whole town goes to a comedy show, that nobody fires 14 shots at someone for driving poorly, and that somehow, people STILL don't know that homicide detectives can check your text messages!!

    May 1 2025

    This week, in Hudson, Ohio, when a woman comes to police with a story about having a dead man, buried in her yard, it leads to the unraveling of an insane tale, complete with burglaries, fires, lies, and the most cold blooded murder possible. The story involves a pair of friends, who end up at odds, and group of people, who may have helped pull this murder off, without even knowing! Will everybody get what's coming to them??


    Along the way, we find out that a "Sausage Fest" can actually be very delicious, that Beaver Cleaver should never hang out with Eddie Haskell, and that you can manipulate your friends, but it's much harder to manipulate the court system!!

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
