  • Tasty combo of sisters a joy!

    I'm a recent fan of Karen and Anne's, ready to digest the 100s of episodes they've whipped together. These ladies put in lots of sweetness and do not hold back on the spice! Their unique perspective is appreciated as they tell the stories of murder, with an appreciation for the victims and facts in the case. Truly brilliant, definitely subscribe! I'll definitely have a second helping...and a third... Bravo ANNE and KAREN!
