Put Your Books Down

If viral culture has taught us anything, it's that the real horror isn't ghosts—it's someone changing your locks while you're out buying groceries.

Natalie and Angela unpack Hulu's shocking new docuseries Squatters: Get the F** Out of My House* and discover that reality can be stranger than fiction. From forged leases and nightmare tenants to a skeleton-filled true crime twist no one sees coming, this episode blends TV and film analysis with the humorous commentary listeners love.

The duo shares personal stories, generational perspective, and plenty of disbelief as they debate squatter rights, outrageous scams, and whether documentaries accidentally teach people how to commit crimes. Equal parts hilarious and horrifying, this conversation will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about homeownership—and double-checking your locks.
