Episode 45 The Bachelor: Here to Please, not Appease (Bachelorette Season 16 Week 3) Oct 28, 2020

Show notes

This week was a MESS (in the best way possible). We get drama, love and everything you need in a Bachelorette episode. We talk about our feelings surrounding Yosef and Clare’s interaction (and Yosef’s departure), and how this week seemed to be the Dale Show 2.0. How is that possible?!

This episode gives us TWO group dates (one with a canceled day date) and a 1-on-1, and every remaining man has a date this week, but do all of them survive the episode? Spoiler, Dale does.

Our POC highlight of the week is Garin Flowers. We also had to say goodbye to Garin this week. He was the man from Florida who is a Professor of Journalism at the University of Southern California.

Episode 44 True Crime: The Murder of Wayne Amey and George Teazis (aka George Templeton) and The Murder of Elizabeth “Lizzi” Marriott Oct 26, 2020

Show notes

This week we witnessed a VERY problematic game of Bachelor strip dodgeball. This isn’t the first problematic game we have heard of (listen to our interview with Erica Rose here). Forced nudity is never okay, regardless of gender. Further, in the episode, it was made to appear that this date was all Clare’s idea. We know this is far from the truth as the leads don’t pick dates, production does. Production, let’s do better - let’s do much better.

We both talk about crimes related to the strip theme. Danielle covers the case of exotic dancer Robyn Lindholm, who has been called a Black Widow, Femme Fatale, Master Manipulator and Lady McBeth in Lycra. Robyn convinced her new lover to kill her ex-lover, not once … but TWICE. (Story starts at: 11:33).

Megan then covers the case of the murder of Elizabeth “Lizzi” Marriott. Lizzi seems like she was just such a sweetheart, and was just trying to make more friends. But these two friends had a different plan and murdered Lizzi after a game of strip poker went very, very wrong. Content Warning: Rape and Sexual Assault, conversations about bondage and BDSM (Story starts at: 54:41).

Episode 43 The Bachelor: A Bunch of Orange Flags (Bachelorette Season 16 Week 2) Oct 21, 2020

Show notes

Oh boy, this week we saw very problematic behavior and awkward moments: toxic masculinity, unnecessary strip dodgeball, trauma therapy on the first date, Clare confronting men left and right, breaking rules etc.

While we talk about it all, we are joined by our fellow lady lawyer and Cutie Kelcee! Kelcee last joined us on the pod in June for the recap of Kaitlyn Bristowe’s GOAT season (check that out here). We tried to Kelcee sign up for Matt James season of the Bachelor, but she wasn’t having it. This episode we make a bet that if Demar doesn’t get Clare’s final rose, we can slide in his DMs about her awesomeness.

Since Danielle lost a bet with Loren from The Basic Bitch Podcast (Minnesota Vikings lost by 1 point), at halftime Danielle recites the 5 things she likes about Loren and 5 things she likes about their podcast. (Check it out at 41:00).

Episode 42 True Crime: The Murder of Andrew Gardner and the Murder of Bernardo Gouthier Oct 19, 2020

Show notes

This week we watched the premiere of the 16th season of the Bachelorette, starring Clare Crawley! Due to COVID-19, the entire season is being filmed at the La Quinta Resort and Club in La Quinta, California, and not at the Bachelor Mansion.

Megan covers a case committed by another woman named Clare. Fair warning, it’s a very hard case, it is an incredibly horrific instance of domestic violence. Andrew Gardner, the victim in this case, was tortured for months by his girlfriend, Clare Nicholls. (This story starts at 9:47).

Danielle takes on a case from La Quinta, California. This case didn’t seem to get the coverage it deserved. Danielle tells the twisted story of the murder of Bernardo Gouthier, a Brazillian art dealer who was the subject of a possible murder for hire plot by his girlfriend's ex-husband. (This story starts at 29:57).

The Murder of Laci and Conner Peterson: October 2020 True Crime Patreon Exclusive Oct 02, 2020

Show notes

This is a sneak peek of our October 2020 BONUS True Crime Content, the Murder of Laci and Conner Peterson.

You can hear the full episode starting at the $3 level of our Patreon page, link here.

Laci Peterson was the gorgeous 27-year-old teacher and expectant mother who disappeared from her Modesto, California home without a trace. Her husband, Scott Peterson quickly became the prime suspect in her murder.

This case became a media frenzy overnight and gained national attention, due in part to Scott’s calm demeanor, and the media’s change to a 24-hour news cycle. And that was all before the public heard from Amber Frey.

Did Scott really kill Laci and Conner? We discuss.

CONTENT WARNING: This case involves a fetal death.
