    The Best of October Southern Fried: 2022, Ep167: The Murder of Fred Jablin
    Oct 24 2024
    Today's episode is a "best of October" Southern Fried is from 2022, 167: The Murder of Fred Jablin

    Dr. Fred Jablin, a highly regarded professor of communication, was a dedicated husband to his wife, Piper Rountree. For years, he did everything in his power to make her happy, but nothing he did was ever enough. In 2002, the Jablin marriage came to an end and Fred was awarded full custody of their three children.

    Following the divorce, it took some time for Fred and the kids to adjust to their new normal. Luckily, by the fall of 2004, things were starting to look up. The children were adjusting well, and Fred was moving on romantically. He was even looking forward to his favorite holiday, Halloween.

    But Fred would never get the chance to celebrate.

    Piper would make sure of that.

    The Disappearance & Murder of Emily Anderson - Part 1 of 2
    Jul 21 2024
    The last time anyone saw 49-year-old Emily Anderson was December 29, 2005. As husband, Jerry Anderson was naturally the first suspect. But he seemed to be able to account for his time that day and he passed a polygraph. After an anonymous call, Emily’s body was discovered on January 7, 2006. As the investigation ramped up, police found that the Andersons’ marriage was on the rocks and Jerry had recently taken out more life insurance on his wife. Part 1 of 2.

  • Introducing Gone Cold – Texas True Crime

    Introducing Gone Cold – Texas True Crime
    Jul 4 2024
    Texas is known for being tough on crime and those who commit it. Or at least the ones who get caught. There are tens of thousands of unsolved homicides in Texas and nearly as many open missing persons cases. Every week, Gone Cold Podcast—Texas true crime—presents in-depth accounts of unsolved murders and missing persons cases throughout the lone star state, concentrating on lesser-known cases that the media has long left behind.

    Cases like the recently solved 1974 abduction and murder of Fort Worth High School student Carla Walker, the brazen 2019 murder of Liz Barraza, and the mysterious 1989 disappearance of 13-year-old Elisa Roberson, who seemingly vanished into thin air while she was walking a few blocks from home to meet a friend. On Gone Cold, you’ll also occasionally hear high-profile cases, such as an 8-episode series on the 1996 abduction and murder of 9-year-old Amber Hagerman, the little girl behind the Amber Alert.

    This is a preview of Gone Cold’s coverage of the 2007 case of 19-year-old Brittany Danielle McGlone,
    who was viciously attacked and savagely slain in her boyfriend’s bed while the rest of the home’s
    inhabitants were away.

    As you’re listening, join Gone Cold’s mission to bring these forgotten cases back into the public’s
    awareness by subscribing to Gone Cold Podcast—Texas true crime wherever you listen to podcasts.

The crimes discussed in this podcast are well researched and the narrator is wonderfully sassy at proper moments as the details of the criminals are outlined.

Well researched

Erica shares background and scope to her presentations that help frame the tragedies she shares. It creates awareness of the crimes along with deep felt empathy for the people affected in these crimes. I personally love (and relate to) her frank southern insights and opinions that she respectfully interjects in her episodes too. Keep it up, girl!

Well written, heartfelt and contemplative

Erica tells a gripping story that includes other perspectives and leaves it up to you to decide. I have listened to many true crime podcasts and Erica is the queen.

Favorite true crime podcast

Excellent!

This needs to edited better. On most of the episodes, it replays parts that have already been played.
Also. One does not retire from the military after only serving one tour of duty. They either got out of the military or choose not to reenlist, or was honorably or dishonorably discharged. One retires after serving 20 or more years. Even injured servicemen or called medically discharged. As she says words matter.

Please, edit better.
