Betsy Faria was known to her friends and family as such a beautiful soul. She had life-long friends who just loved to be around her because she always loved to have a good time and make those around her feel happy and loved. In addition to all those amazing friends, Betsy had a husband and two beautiful daughters who loved her endlessly. When she was diagnosed with Cancer all of those friends and family banded around her to make sure she had all the support she needed. One of those friends, Pam Hupp, took a special interest in taking care of Betsy. In fact, she was the last person to see Betsy alive. Not because Betsy had passed from Cancer, but because two days after Christmas on December 27, 2011, Betsy Faria was found stabbed to death in her own home.

Suspicion in the case starts to fall on Derek and Nancy’s daughter Elizabeth and just when the police focus in on her and her boyfriend, they bail. They make their way over to the UK and start living a quiet life where no one would ever find them. Just kidding, they get caught in one of the dumbest ways possible. Hold onto your butts!

Ash has got a two parter for you guys this holiday week! Let us first say though, how incredibly thankful we are that this group of lovely weirdos banded around us in SUCH a time of grief and uncertainty. All of the kind words and messages we’ve been getting from all of you mean so much to us. Thank you, thank you, thank you. 



This is part one of two that we’ll be doing on the murders of Derek and Nancy Haysom. This case has tons of twists and turns and we’ll even find ourselves in another country in part two. Buckle up and hold onto your butts weirdos!

Dorothea is back back back again and she’s eviler than ever. She’s befriending people only to murder them slowly, she’s pretending to fall inlove with a man from her actual prison cell only to murder him and throw him in a river bank. BUT have no fear because this woman does get caught, and she gets got in a pretty poetic way if you ask us!

Alaina brings us part one of Dorothea Puente, possibly one of the most evil humans who has ever walked the earth. Dorothea had an incredibly sad childhood, but then grew into this terrible woman who lied, cheated and scammed her way through just about everything. You will be shocked to hear how many times she got away with actual law breaking offenses, Ash actually lost count halfway through the episode. And guys, this is only part one!!

It’s Listener Tales 34!!!! This installment features someone who WE accidentally wronged and now owe some new undies and a whole bunch of Kinder eggs to....there are also a couple of “woooo whooo witchy women,” and even a couple guest appearances by the local squirrels. Special thanks for our listener Kelly, who shared an important tale with us as well! Hold on to your butts!!!

There was also a listener who shared their horror film with us (which they star in!) and we DIG IT! So, we wanted to share it! Check out Meridian here:

"Mara Malicky's pristine image is threatened when her ASMR channel is hacked and she finds herself forced to do her blackmailer's bidding. It isn't long until she realizes that more than just her reputation is on the line."

Father, Son, House of Gucci!! That’s right baby, Ash did a deep dive into all things Gucci for this episode. Gucci as a company was founded in 1921 in Florence Italy by Guccio Gucci. Over the years the family business was passed through generations and eventually ended up solely in the hands of Maurizio Gucci. Unfortunately in 1995 Maurizio Gucci was killed by a hired hitman. Who hired said hitman? Gucci’s ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani. #AMereBowlOfLentils

For this Holiday week, we wanted to bring you a lighter (?) episode, although it’s really not so light at all! Alaina’s kids have gotten super into the Wizard of Oz and so she decided to do dive into the dark happenings during filming. All kinds of atrocities went down and we are pretty confident that you’ll never watch this movie the same! Sorry…. we mean you’re welcome!



The Making of the Wizard of Oz By Aljean Harmetz (Be wary that this book is fascinating but uses some outdated language when referencing certain people)

The Internet, a place where you can be whoever you want to be, whether it’s your true identity or an alter ego you’ve made up. For some people, this is chatting in online rooms with different screennames pretending to be their favorite character or someone they admire. In 2005 for a man named Thomas Montgomery it was darker than that. Thomas Montgomery was 46 years old when an 18-year-old under the screenname “TallHotBlond” messaged him. Instead of revealing who he truly was, Thomas pretended to be an 18-year-old marine named Tommy and the pair started their online affair. Eventually, their affair would leave someone dead and leave everyone else untangling a web of lies.
