Kris took her daughters for an overnight stay on The Queen Mary ship hotel in Long Beach, California. Listen in while Kris and Kym compare notes from their separate experiences staying on the ship, some tips if you're going to stay, oh, yeah and Kris had a ghost in her stateroom. You know, typical travel stories. 

We couldn't help it. There was so much involved in the Mike Morford interview that we had to record a bonus episode...mostly to expound on things we touched on in the original interview (the GSK and Night Stalker cases, Janelle Cruz, DNA) but as always we veer off into related subjects and topics (such as the award-winning 2018 Three Identical Strangers documentary, Albert Flick, and other detours). But mostly we wanted to just talk more about true crime, so here you go. 

Today we are so happy to have Criminology and 3 Men and a Mystery co-host, and The Murder in my Family host Mike Morford joining us to talk about podcasting, DNA technology, CrimeCon, preparedness vs. paranoia, and generally what it's like being involved in three of the best true crime podcasts in the industry.  

Certain things just come to mind when summer hits: pool parties, camping trips, barbecuing, and going to the fair! Fairs are usually known for rides and livestock and blue-ribbon contests, but you have to admit, "fair food" is also a big draw. They usually have food you just can't get anywhere else, and there's always a new (and occasionally weird) fried something to try out. So today we cover all the different fair goodies – some we've tried, some we'd love to try, and some we'll just give a hard pass on. 

Today we celebrate summer (shocking, we know) by talking about one of our favorite things about this time of year: Camping! Of course, we also talk about Fourth of July, Earthquakes, Stranger Things, Jo Koy and other favorite binge-worthy shows on Netflix and Hulu. Join us as we share some favorite camping stories, tips, tricks, and gadgets from our own experience and from the internet. 

Today we talk down memory lane in a retrospective episode discussing all our favorite moments, stories, and episodes from the past year in this special ramble-fest!

One podcast – My Favorite Murder – is what inspired us to start podcasting so today we go back to our obsession with true crime to share two "hometown murders," a la MFM. In this episode we talk about the 2003 murder of Diego Armando Gonzalez-Sanchez, a 17 year old El Modena High School wrestler and the 1991 workplace shooting at Fairview Developmental Center which left one dead and two injured. Both stories have personal ties to us, since we knew the people involved in both cases! 

Today we discuss weird and fun stories we found on the internet...because we all know the world is an endless supply of laughs, eyebrow raises, and spiders. Yes, spiders are back. So are zombie snakes, mega-queues, good humans, strange humans, money for the taking, and body parts on the rocks. Oh, hundreds of thousands of people who do the...things...just to join a club. Do not eat before listening. You've been warned gol'darnit!

Today's episode continues a trend in our recordings lately, which is nothing ever seems to go as planned. Our main topic is about the good ways people are using social media, we can't help but talk about all the s*** that hit the fan the day we recorded (like Kym's cat getting an industrial sized fish hook caught in her paw), how being true crime addicts have affected us as moms, and how on Earth Kris took so long to finally watch Outlander, which we're sure was made specifically with her in mind.

How amazing it is to look something up as soon as a question is asked? To keep in touch with loved ones hundreds or thousands of miles away? To post creative works for the world to see? That's the beauty of the internet. The downside? Addiction to checking our phones, frustration over political rants, FOMO, misinformation, comparing our lives to others. Today we talk (ok, rant a bit) about the effects social media has in our lives and how we manage to muddle through it all.
