This week Taryn tells us about the abduction, and eventual rescue, of Jaycee Dugard. Jaycee was 11 years old when she was walking to the bus stop when a couple stun gunned her and kidnapped her. Using Jacycee's own memoir "A Stolen Life" and ABC's articles that exploded after she was found safe, Taryn walks us through her life with her abductors', how she survived, how she was found, and how she adapted to life outside her abductor's backyard. This one is a doozy, but there's a happy ending, so buckle up and hang on.

This week we get into one of the most popular serial killer cases, Edmund Kemper. Edmund Emil Kemper was a 6'9 man who murdered 10 people in Santa Cruz California between 1964 and 1973. Coined the Co-ed Killer by the media because his victims were often young college girls. So what exactly led Ed to become one of the most notorious serial killers America has had? It involves his mother, and maybe even his friends in the place he was supposed to be receiving treatment? Listen to find out exactly what happened to this giant psycho here, there's a lot to unpack.
