Broads Next Door

Grab a mask- or better yet a hazmat suit because today we’re getting a broader understanding of the pneumonic plague- is there an outbreak or was this a one off? How bad would this be? And how many once in a lifetime events will we get in one lifetime?

Put down your true crime coloring book, turn off that third rewatch of Mindhunter, and triple-check your locks, because today we’re getting a broader understanding of active serial killers.

Maybe they didn’t go extinct.

Maybe they changed their ways just enough that we stopped noticing.

We’re not talking about Jeffrey Dahmer’s glasses or the psychology of Ed Kemper. We’re talking about the now.
Because while Netflix has made a buffet of the past’s worst men, we seem to forget:
They’re still out there.
Still watching.
Still following.
Still killing.

But now? They’ve adapted to a world with doorbell cameras, automatic license plate readers, and a public that no longer pays attention unless there’s a trailer attached.

We prefer our killers archived, not active.
Dead, not digital.
Cold case, not current.

But that’s a myth. And today, we’re breaking it wide open.

Grab your melatonin and turn on your sound machine because we’re kicking off spooky season with a subtle kind of horror- sleep deprivation. What does it do to us? How long can we go without rest? And for anyone who just had a baby like me, why does sleep during the newborn trenches feel like torture?

Get ready to take an ambulance ride and listen to some infuriating audio as we continue to gain a broader understanding of fetal abduction and the Netflix documentary Maternal Instinct. When we last left off, Taylor Parker had been pulled over on the side of the road claiming she had just given birth.

Make sure you’re sitting down because in part four of our fetal abduction series, we’re arriving at the crime scene, as we continue to gain a broader understanding of the crimes of Taylor Parker and the murder of Reagan Hancock 

For the past three episodes we’ve been telling two stories.
The first belonged to Reagan Hancock.
A young wife. A mother to three-year-old Kynlee. Thirty-five weeks pregnant with a little girl named Braxlynn Sage. A woman whose family described as kind, funny, loyal, and the sort of person who made room for other people.

The second belonged to Taylor Parker.
A woman who spent months building a pregnancy that didn’t exist. Creating a nursery. Faking a pregnancy. Living inside a story that became larger and larger until reality could no longer keep up.


For three episodes-those stories have existed side by side. Today, they become one.

Grab your security blanket, a cold beverage, and your internal rage because Today we’re continuing our No Maternal Instinct series, but we’re taking a slightly different path than the documentary as we try and gain a broader understanding of fetal abduction.



Because after Part One, a lot of you wrote to us.
Some of you were excited.
Some of you were surprised that we spent an entire episode talking about fake pregnancies instead of jumping right into Taylor Parker.
And a few of you basically said…
“…Okay, but when are we getting to Taylor?”

Fair question.
And today…
we’re getting closer.
But before we talk about Taylor Parker…
we want to tell you about the woman whose name almost slipped away- Reagan Simmons Hancock
