Did you know there is a name for when people actively seek out incarcerated romantic partners? Yup, and it is hybristophilia. Randa and I discuss what such couples break up over. I mean, what is the last straw when you already know your partner is a murderer? How far would you go for your partner? Would you kill for them? Is it ever a good idea to write to a stranger in prison? How good is Natural Born Killers as a film!? Who do you admire that you know you probably shouldn’t? And what is folie à deux? And finally, does anyone fancy Ned Flanders?
