Sisters Take a Side

What happens when you combine an Instagram lifestyle and Vanity Fair? Chaos. And maybe libel. In this episode, Sarah explains how Anna Delvey (Sorkin? We aren't sure) got famous off the classic “Fake it til you make it” mindset, and Emily books a trip to Marrakech. Can you guess what side these sister’s come down on?

You finally buy your dream house. Six bedrooms, four bathrooms, 3900 square feet of swanky, middle class home for you and your three kids. Only one small problem- The Watcher doesn’t particularly want you living there. Emily tells the tale of 657 Boulevard and the absolute creep who makes your annoying nextdoor neighbor look like a Girl Scout and Sarah tells us why she would have moved in anyways.

Have you ever wondered what it would sound like if your teenage text messages were broken down and analyzed by a bunch of adult lawyers? We just cringed too. On today’s ep, Sarah does a deep dive on the heartbreaking, precedent-setting case of Michelle Carter, and Emily relives her best (and worst) high school moments. We think you’ll be surprised about which side we take on this one.

What do Anthony Weiner and Carlos Danger have in common? They are both real stupid online sexting names. Oh, and they happen to be the same guy. Today, Emily does a deep dive on the scandals that brought down a promising politician and Sarah gives us an unintentional lesson on how not to upload your private photos to Twitter. We bet you can guess which side we take on this one.

PS- Sorry it sounds like Sarah is recording from a submarine in the last half of this episode. Emily forgot to turn on the echo thing when recording. Our bad!

Welcome to Sisters Take a Side! We're so happy you're here. Join us each week to hear two sisters, with too many opinions, talk all things true crime and pop culture. What's our process? Each week, one of us will take on a case, criminal, court hearing, or whatever else catches our eye and tell the other one all about it. We can't promise you that we're experts, but we sure do know how to Google stuff that would probably make us look guilty as hell if we were ever accused of a crime. For links and information about the real experts and all the sources we reference, check out the notes of each episode. 

So, who are we? To be honest, we barely know. Sarah is a 30-something HR professional who moonlights as an armchair detective with a glass of red wine in hand. Her hobbies include baking, reading trashy romance novels, and watching hockey. Emily is a 30-something (but younger than Sarah, thank you very much) nonprofit fundraiser who spends her free time chasing after her two boys and watching re-runs of Survivor with her cute husband. She is a podcast fanatic and long distance running addict who spends entirely too much money on iced coffee.

And yes, we are actually sisters! We are 20 months apart and grew up as best friends. We currently live down the street from one another and spend entirely too much time together. This podcast is basically a recording of the conversations we were already having, so come on in!
