In this festive episode, Wendy and Beth settle in for a cozy holiday catch-up, swapping Thanksgiving stories, listener feedback, and all the delightful chaos that comes with the season. From true crime deep dives to wellness tips as simple (and joyful!) as singing, they explore how small habits and shared conversations can make a big difference. The duo also tackles current events, playful conspiracy theories, and the surprising rise of extra-cute raccoons - all while celebrating the power of community and connection that anchors the Fruitloops fam.

Back in April, Fruitloops Video Club reviewed the movie Sing Sing, a powerful prison drama that explores healing, hope, and transformation through the arts.

Synopsis: A man is imprisoned at Sing Sing for a crime he didn't commit. When joined by a wary outsider, he finds purpose in staging an original comedy with a theater group of other incarcerated men.

Wendy & Beth share their emotional reactions to the film, unpacking how storytelling becomes a lifeline for incarcerated people, offering escape, connection, and a way to process trauma. The convo touches on wrongful convictions, friendship, the struggle to reenter society, and the incredible impact creative expression can have on personal growth.

It’s a rich discussion about art, community, and the urgent need for systemic change. Don’t miss this one - and definitely add Sing Sing to your watchlist!

This week, Beth & Wendy dive into the disturbing case of José Luis Calva Zepeda — The Cannibal of Guerrero, aka The Cannibal Poet.

A struggling Mexican writer with big dreams and darker secrets, Calva Zepeda’s world unraveled in 2007 when police entered his apartment and made a horrific discovery: the dismembered remains of his girlfriend… and chilling signs that parts of her body may have been cooked.

It’s a case tangled in trauma, obsession, and a façade of artistic ambition.

This episode was researched & scripted by Wendy & Beth Williams and edited by Minnie Williams.

Happy Halloween, Fruities! In the spirit of the season, we've got a spooky one for you.

In this episode, we dive into the chilling story of Magdalena Solís, known as “La Gran Sacerdotisa de la Sangre” - The High Priestess of Blood. Once an ordinary woman from northern Mexico, Solís rose to lead a murderous cult driven by delusion, power, and ritual sacrifice. 

Join us as we uncover how Magdalena Solís transformed into a self-proclaimed goddess who drank human blood - and how her reign of terror carved a haunting legacy into Mexican history.

In 1987, Ruthie Mae McCoy made a frantic 911 call. Someone, she claimed, was trying to get into her apartment - through the bathroom cabinet. Two days later, Ruthie was found murdered. Her death was all too real. But the horror didn’t end there. Five years later, a new nightmare was born on the big screen. With the chilling command “Be my victim,” the legend of Candyman took hold - a vengeful spirit with a hook for a hand, summoned by saying his name five times into a mirror.

But what if the story behind the legend is even more terrifying?

Join Fruitloops as we delve into the eerie true crime that inspired Candyman - the life and tragic death of Ruthie Mae McCoy. Who, or what, is the real Candyman? Is he a supernatural killer… or a reflection of something far more sinister lurking in plain sight?

Looking for listener letters, shout-outs & tips on how not to get murdered? You’ll now find them tucked away in our Love You, Bye episodes.
