  • Yaman! Look forward to next episode.

    Jenn does a great job with the facts, information and limited time allowed to research older crimes and provide a fun and interesting podcast. I think the most alarming thing from these shows are how many kookoo for Coco puffs twatz there are walking around among us. Some in prison, some free as a bird!

    Always carry your favorite “protective buddy” with you and be aware of your spacial surroundings friends!
