Crime Crazy Podcast

Our festive episode this week is as dark as you'd wish. But don't worry. We're still in Crime Cozy season, so we have some very comforting stats to soothe the scary.

Crime Cozy returns!

Whether it's a lover crossed or a group of people who just randomly chooses you to kill, murder is scary shit. But... is it really a big risk?

Find out. And also listen to a couple totally tragic murder tales, because it wouldn't be Crime Crazy without those!

And stay tuned for a great discussion of llama shirts.

Crime Cozy continues this week with a story about a home invasion (is that even a thing?) and some strict foreign laws we're never going to test!

Also, did YOU know about luffas?!

And don't forget to listen to the end!

You're sitting in your favorite chair, wrapped in a cozy quilt, sipping hot cocoa when you suddenly realize something is off with your drink. And you smell smoke. 

Have you been poisoned? Did someone set fire to your house?

Don't worry. That's extremely unlikely!

*Starting this week!* Stay until the end for some awesome bloopers!

Welcome to October! It's the time of year for fall leaves, pumpkin spice everything (if you're into that...ICK!) and seriously gory, scary true crime podcasts.

But, you know what, every true crime podcast goes that route. So, we've decided to mix things up a little this year. For the month of October, instead of going creepy, we're going cozy! Seriously scary crime stories with super cozy statistics about safety.

In our first story, we learn some new vocabulary and what people taste like. Then Diana turns the episode serious with a seriously unhappy ending (but really comforting numbers!)

This week, we also want to support some great causes!

Jacob Wetterling Foundation has a proven history of helping kids and families.

Remember that episode where we decided we *might* be ok with killing someone who steals your AC?* 

Well, we may have found ONE other thing worth killing over!*

And we have NO idea why this guy thought he'd ever get away with his crimes!

*Not really guys! DO NOT end up on next week's episode!

Close your eyes and picture the craziest crime story?

Do you picture the "Crime for Dummies" version? Everything cliche and sterotypical? Like someone sat down and asked themselves "what would a criminal do" and then did just that? (no one would do that. That's Crazy).

Or is it more like a crime story that might have been made up by a couple of high-as-balls 12-year-olds asked to write a crime story for their creative writing class?

Because, either way, we've got you covered this week!

Eryn can’t set fires, but this guy sure can!

At least Diana’s criminal was more respectful of property. Even if ladders eluded him.

When you're in prison, there's not much to do. Some people read; some learn a trade; and one guy made tens of thousands of dollars!

Then, we revisit the Cecil and a case we mentioned previously. It's tragic, and it's unsolved. But it's also full of fascinating details!

Bonus: Diana *might* end up on next week's episode, and we chat about the cutest animal you've never heard of!

So many domestic issues this week leave us wondering if certain people should avoid marriage altogether. From jealous new wives to jealous lovers, no one is safe!
