Ad Free: The Disappearance of Maura Murray Part 2 Jul 23, 2021

Show notes

FAM!! In anticipation of our LIVE SHOW THIS SATURDAY (July 31st), we are rereleasing our episodes covering "The Disappearance of Maura Murray." Come see us cover this case LIVE on Saturday night at the Wilbur Theater in Boston where we will be joined by Maggie, Lance, and Tim (...and a surprise special guest) who are all featured in the doc! It's a completely different show than you're about to listen to AND WE CAN'T WAIT! GET YOUR TICKETS HERE!
It's the most famous--and most obsessed over--missing person's case of our time:
On February 9, 2004, Maura Murray, a promising young nursing student, left her college dorm, emptied her bank account, and drove to a remote New Hampshire town where she didn't know a soul. Just after 7pm, her car crashed into a tree. A witness spoke to her, offering help, which she refused. And then she vanished into thin air. Nobody has seen or heard from her since. Everybody has a theory: The family knows more than they're saying, the police botched the case and are covering it up, Maura fled her life and started over in Canada. This documentary series attempts to solve the mystery.

189: Scott Peterson: One Last Chance (ABC's 20/20) Jul 20, 2021

Show notes

It's been 18 years since Scott Peterson was convicted of killing his pregnant wife, Laci. In that time, some members of his family have been working tirelessly to prove his innocence--that he couldn't have killed Laci. Some of their evidence is compelling, but so much of Scott's story still doesn't make sense. But Scott's attorneys are certain that if he's granted a new trial--which seems more and more likely--they'll be able to prove beyond reasonable doubt that their client is innocent.

Show notes

THIS. ONE. IS. WILD. YOU. GUYS.
Let us say right up front, Patrick and Gillian have never watched an episode of The Housewives, SO THIS WAS A REAL EDUCATION….And now Patrick identifies as Housewives Curious. OK, so Beverly Hills Housewife Erik Jane (you guys, I could watch that XXPEN$IVE video allllll dayyyyy, and if you don’t know what that is, just you wait) and her husband, legal titan Tom Girardi are in super big trouble. It seems that Griardi has been stealing huge sums of money from his clients WHICH INCLUDE PLANE CRASH AND BURN VICTIMS. Yikes, Tom. Also, Erika maybe was in on it? There’s a lot to unpack here. BUT ALSO THE HOUSEWIVES!

Class Action Park Jul 06, 2021

Show notes

During its 1980s and 1990s heyday, New Jersey’s Action Park earned a reputation as the most insane — and possibly the most dangerous — amusement park that ever existed. It was known as a lawless land, ruled by drunk teenage employees and frequented by even drunker teenage guests. The rides were experimental and illogical, and seemed to ignore even the most basic notions of physics or common sense—not to mention safety. And this documentary spills ALL. THAT. DRUNK. NEW. JERSEY. TEA!

187: White Boy Jun 29, 2021

Show notes

Fam, if you thought New York in the 70s, was bad, WELCOME TO DETROIT IN THE 80s. It’s the height of “the war on drugs” and, according to local law enforcement, it seems that a new drug gang is popping up every week. Enter the notorious White Boy Rick—a SIXTEEN YEAR OLD DRUG KINGPIN WHO IS RUNNING DETROIT LIKE A MAFIA BOSS…or so the legend went. In reality, he was a14-year-old informant for the FBI who was thrust into the world of drugs and gun by his father, and then sold out by everybody.

186: Searching for Sheela Jun 22, 2021

Show notes

BUCKLE UP EVERYONE, GILLIAN IS REAL MAD THIS WEEK!
So, Ok, remember Ma Anand Sheela from “Wild Wild Country?” She was Bagwan’s number 2, bus we all knew she was really the one running things in the Rajneesh Cult. Remember how she went a little bananas and tried to poison the entire town in Oregon where the cult was based and then she plotted to assassinate a Senator, and then went into hiding after leaving the cult. WELL GUESS WHAT, SHE’S GETTING HER OWN DOCUMENTARY! After 35 years, she’s headed back to India to promote her book. But she really doesn’t want to talk about the book or answer any questions AND GILLIAN IS NOT HERE FOR IT. Ugh, this is a doozy.

185: Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel: Part 2 Jun 15, 2021

Show notes

This is part 2 of our 2-part coverage. For episode 1, please see last week's episode!
Can a building be evil? (Gillian: “NO, IT’S JUST A BUILDING!”). Can web sleuths solve a truly bizarre death? (Patrick: “NO! GET OFF FACEBOOK AND GO. OUT. SIDE.). And what exactly is a hotel general manager’s job? (Patrick and Gillian: (“UNCLEAR!”) Welcome to the Cecil Hotel—a once grand hotel which rotted from the inside and became a place where “dreams go to die” and “serial killers let their hair down.”
Elisa Lam knew none of that, of course, when she checked in on January 28, 2013. She went missing a few days later. And two weeks after that, out of desperation to find her, the LAPD released the now infamous “elevator video” of her which set the internet ablaze. Join us and the investigators and internet…sleuths?...as we all try to put together the pieces of her disappearance and death. And I promise, we land on an answer as to what happened to her.
