March 01, 2023 Ep 144 - I'll Take the Compliment Avocado Toast - Forensic Files Reports
We asked, our patreon answered, even though they didn’t know what we were asking for. We love a ride or die relationship. We decided to ask for random numbers that would be connected through an incredibly complex formula to find a season and episode of Forensic Files to cover. Our take on a book report.

February 22, 2023 Ep 143 - That Goblin Standard - Rodney Alcala

This episode Roya covers Rodney Alcala, The Dating Game (show) Killer. In the episode we talk about Jenna Marbles, how hard it is to quantify grossness, and why Roman Polanski should never be allowed to win an award in the US along with the actual case details. It’s all… kind of relevant, we promise.

February 15, 2023 Ep 142 - Japan was in it's Villain Era - The Lee Family
Starting off our crimes of the large and small screen episodes, Casey covers the Lee Family (curse? maybe). Unfortunate and untimely deaths? Definitely. The similarities are endless, uncanny and uncomfy as she talks about the death of Bruce Lee and his son Brandon Lee and draws parallels between their very early deaths. A bonus episode coming to Patreon where we speculate wildly on possible causes (conspiracy theories) on the deaths.

February 01, 2023 Ep 141: AJ Offscreen: YEAH! - Branch Davidians Pt 2
Roya finishes off the Branch Davidians and the intense debate of government overreach or cult-like activity. We landed fairly squarely in oversight combined with fire based martyrdom and some bad leadership on all sides. However, the important thing to remember is the large number of likely innocent victims of David Koresh’s egotism.

January 18, 2023 Ep 140: White Dudes Doing White Dude Stuff - Branch Davidians
This story has EVERYTHING: reincarnated biblical characters, child brides, sex bans, and necromancy duels. The beginning of the end for another cult as Casey dives into what led them to the edge before Roya covers the devastating plunge over it next week.

January 11, 2023 Ep 139: A Scorpio, Enough Said - Arson 2
What happens when you take a creepy unhinged stalker with a hero complex and add in a desire to set things on fire? Thomas Sweatt. That’s what you get. He sucks. This is his story. Dun Dun.

January 05, 2023 Ep 138 - We Hate a Pillar of the Community - Arson
Was it murder? Was it suicide? Was it extreme plastic surgery resulting in a Quasimodo-like man? The world may never know, but join us as we speculate wildly about Clarence Roberts and when slash how he actually died. Also, the end of the episode is pure chaos as we ramble about Costco Hotdogs and Frankenstein.

November 30, 2022 Ep 137 - Your Grandma is a Hotdog - Cremation Catastrophe
Our Patreons wanted it and now it’s your problem. In the poll on patreon at the beginning of the month, our lovely members voted on Cremation Catastrophe for Casey’s topic. So she is talking about the Tri-State Crematorium Scandal and we’re introducing a new bit and revisiting a classic while also welcoming a brand new sucker, I mean
