In a much anticipated return, Arod is back!!! And with him back we are covering a case in his neck of the woods. But first we recap CSI Season 13 Episode 8 "CSI on Fire" and it's a roller coaster for sure. Then Kenzi tells the story of the real life true crime that shares similarities in the episode. Between 2003 and 2005 a serial killer was operating in the East Corridor of Albuquerque and the police never even knew. Until 2009, when the mass burial site and the remains of 11 women were discovered. Listen to hear the story of the 11 women that were victims of the West Mesa Bone Collector, the corruption occurring in APD at that time, and the theories of who the Bone Collector is.

We promise we are back for a while now! And we are coming back strong with a SVU episode! This week we watched Law & Order SVU Season 13 Episode 3 "Blood Brothers". After the recap, we jump into the real celebrity scandal this episode was based on with a new twist to the show. This week we did a biography episode on the career of Arnold Schwarzengger. From a boy in a small village in Austria to a bodybuilder to an actor to an American to Governor of California, this man has quite literally done it all. But all his success would come to ahead when the news breaks about an affair with a member of his household staff.

After coming back from a holiday break, the gang welcomes the Christmas season by recapping NCIS: LA Christmas episode Season 9 Episode 11 "All is Bright". Then we head back to New York City for our true crime that shares similarities with this episode. In 1977 New York City was not the glamorous city we may think it was. New York City was a desperate and dangerous place, but all the feelings of turmoil came to ahead when the whole city lost electricity. What followed is what some may describe as the Purge come to life.

Then we dive into the investigation and subsequent manhunt for the terrorists behind the World Trade Center bombing.

We are back after a one week break due to sickness and travel. At least some of us are back..... Kenzi has guest host Brady on to cover NCIS Season 4 Episode 7 "Sandblast". After the recap, they discuss the 1993 World Trade Center Bombing, which you might think you know? But did you know it started with the murder of a Rabbi in 1990? Or that the Joint-Terrorism Task Force had a man on the inside? And they knew about the bomb before it was detonated? Give the episode a listen to hear a piece of American history that is often overlooked.

This week we finish up Part 2 of 2 of Joy Risker's story. In this part we dive into the events following Sean's confession, including the subsequent investigation. Then comes the trial, which is just as dramatic as Sean Goff himself. Also during the trial we get the story of the days and hours leading up to Joy's death by a surprise witness. Sadly, during the trial we have to listen to the story Sean spins when he's on the stand. Is it enough to sway the jury?

We are headed back to our roots this week! We watched and recapped Law & Order SVU Season 9 Episode 10 "Snitch". Then Kenzi tells the story of the real true crime case this episode was based on. When police in Arizona found the remains of Joy Risker, they were unaware that over in San Diego police were already investigating Joy's disappearance. They and Joy's friends and family even had one man they suspected... her husband Sean Goff. This wasn't an average marriage though, Joy was Sean's second wife, like as in currently "married" to two wives, as in a polygamous relationship.

We have another guest with us on this week's episode! Kenzi was joined by her other brother, Brady, and they recap CSI: Miami Season 9 Episode 21 "G.O.", which is a real mind bender and has twists and turns almost every scene! This episode is all about pranks, so after the recap Kenzi and Brady share their own experience with a prank on their house. Then they dive into the incredibly sad story of Adrian Broadway. Adrian and her friend's were just being typical teenagers and toilet papering a friend's car, when the dad woke up and overreacted.

The gang get together to cover a one-season-only, spinoff of Law & Order, Law & Order: LA Sesason 1 Episode 4 "Sylmar"! Folks, this spinoff might be better than SVU..... just saying..... Anyways, after the recap, we get into the true story it was based off of. Colleen LaRose became curious about the Islamic faith after a one night stand, but as she spent more and more time online learning about the religion she became more and more entangled with an online extremist cell. This all amounted to Colleen receiving one instruction: Kill him. Listen to hear about the infamous Jihad Jane Case.

We are headed back to the bayou in this week's episode! We watched and recapped NCIS: New Orleans Season 5 Episode 18 "In Plain Sight" before diving in to a true crime story that surprisingly shared more similarities with the TV episode than you would expect. From a young age, all Virginia Hall wanted was to be an agent in the US Foreign Service, but when serving as a clerk at the US Consulate in Turkey she lost her leg in a hunting accident and her dream came crashing down. However, little did anyone know, this woman with a wooden leg would become the most badass spy in the thick of Nazi-invaded France in World War II!

This week we learned all about the Navy! Per the usual, we start by recapping NCIS Season 12 Episode 13 "We Build, We Fight". Then we jump into a true crime case that shares some similarities with the episode. While docked in Sasebo, Japan, Radioman Allen R. Schindler Jr. was just trying to enjoy one last night out before the U.S.S. Belleau Wood took off for the Philippines the next day. That was until he was brutally murdered on his way back to the ship. The reason? Depends on who you ask. Allen's friends and family say it was because he was gay and it was an act of homophobia. The Navy says it was just a drunken fight. Listen to see who is telling the truth.

Another Wednesday, another episode of Law & Order SVU! This week we watched Law & Order SVU Season 22 Episode 1 "Guardians and Gladiators". This episode was based on the Central Park Birdwatching Incident. Christian Cooper was just trying to spend his Memorial weekend birdwatching, when he found himself in a confrontation with a dog owner. A confrontation he had thought was just about leashing the dog in the park, until Amy Cooper called the cops and reported that a Black man was threatening to assault her.

We are back to our regular streaming schedule and bringing you a show we haven't covered yet. This week for the first time we watched CSI: Miami Season 10 Episode 11 "Crowned" and we dive into the world of beauty pageants. After we go through our riveting recap of the episode, we jump into the tragic death of Agnieszka Kotlarska. Agnieszka was the first Polish woman to ever be crowned Miss International and this caught the attention of world famous brands, but it also caught the attention of Jerzy Lisiewski, a man who many consider a psychofan.

We go conspiracy in this weeks episode! But first recap Bones Season 5 Episode 6 "The Tough Man in the Tender Chicken". From there we dive into the story of the Karen Silkwood, the Kerr-McGee whistleblower. During her time at Kerr-McGee, Karen secretly collected documents to confirm her suspicions that Kerr-McGee was knowingly putting workers at risk of contamination of radioactive plutonium. She was on her to give a reporter for the New York Times all the files collected, when she tragically died in a one car accident. But was it just an accident? Had Karen stumbled upon something bigger in her time "undercover"? Was the FBI in on it? How far up did it go?
