  • No one cares.

    The stories and topics sounded interesting but I don’t know how any one could listen to these two blather on about their inane lives and opinions for 20 minutes. Pass.

  • Appreciation!

    Thank you for strolling the dark with a bit of approachability and a spark of twinkle. You make a scaredy cat feel welcome. As a St. Louis listener would love for you to cover Ronald Hunkeler, true story of the Excorcist. Performed in a hospital in St. Louis. Thanks for your good work!!.

  • They hate men and don’t talk about true crime

    Not only do they hate men exclusively and blame them for the world’s problems, they also just yap the entire time about stuff that has nothing to do with true crime. Also they are obsessed with Ghost, which is weird because I guess ghosts are cool and all but does it have to be a full on obsession? Anyways this is my favorite podcast ever, you’re right about men being horrible, keep on yapping and keep it WEIRD

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Stars Over New Orleans with Aliza Kelly
Q: Do you think that it was him who wrote the letter?
The hosts say Mumfrey may have written it, noting that no attack followed the letter's jazz-night challenge and that the killings resumed later. They also consider whether the letter gave the killer a sense of control.
Stars Over New Orleans with Aliza Kelly
Q: What do you guys think of these sort of erratic earlier attacks from almost a decade before?
The hosts consider whether the attacks were early attempts by the same perpetrator or unrelated crimes. Aliza discusses possible links to the Black Hand extortion ring and other organized violence targeting Italian American merchants.
Carrie, Cult Classics & Chaos: A Sit Down with Matthew Lillard
Q: When did you realize Stu from Scream would be remembered decades later?
He didn't, really; it wasn't a planned milestone, but the role clicked in a way that resonated with audiences over time, and the chaotic energy of that character continued to feel relevant.
Forensics, Fiction, and the Fine Line Between Them: A Sit Down with Patricia Cornwell
Q: In your early career in the Medical Examiner's Office, what shaped the creation of Kay Scarpetta during those years?
Patricia Cornwell shared that her experiences working in the Medical Examiner's Office were crucial in shaping her character Kay Scarpetta, as she witnessed various forensic processes and learned in-depth details about crime scenes.
Fan Favorite: The Violent Deaths of Bog Bodies
Q: Do you think that he really buried her where nobody would find her? Or do you really think he put her in the bog?
It's unclear, but it's suggested he may have put her in the bog, which could hide her in the layers of peat.
