Send us a text In this episode of Crime and Cocktails with the PodCats, Jess and the kitties dive into Netflix’s Unknown Number: The High School Catfish — an INSANE docuseries that unpacks one of the most elaborate catfishing cases to ever hit a high school community. Of course, it wouldn’t be a PodCats episode without a little chaos — Mama Kitty gets a surprise “Happy Birthday” serenade, Jess discovers a vape that’s way too good, and the kitties tiptoe into a brief chatter about ...
Send us a text Most of the Podcats made it to the mic this week to tackle a documentary with quite possibly the longest title we've ever attempted to pronounce after two cocktails. This is also a part of our new twist - PodCats After Dark. Which means we get pretty raunchy and the content is absolutely unsuitable for anyone under 18. Put on your headphones kitties. In short: A Deadly American Marriage covers the shocking case of Jason Corbett, an Irish businessman living in North Caroli...
Jess and Traci are here with a couple of guests to discuss the three-part documentary This is the Zodiac Speaking, streaming on Netflix. But they all pre-gamed WAY too much so this is more like a Bad Moms podcast with hear less lots of inappropriate conversation. We caution you to keep your children out of the car when you listen to this episode. Truely, we were hammered. If you haven't seen this yet, the documentary explores the enduring mystery of the Zodiac killer, who terrori...
This episode hosts just a couple of kitties - Jess and her guest T Bone. We do have to warn you that the kitties were sipping cocktails for HOURS before they got to Chowchilla so words are slurred and there is some confusion. But we did manage to get most of the story out. If none of what we said made sense, here is what the doc was all about: CNN Films and Max covered what was truly one of the weirdest mass kidnappings in history—the Chowchilla school bus abduction. This documentary feature...
Welcome to Season 6! Traci and Jess sip expresso martinis and discuss the insanity of Ms. Elisabeth Finch as depicted in the documentary "Anatomy of Lies"......currently airing on Peacock. We are captivated by scammer and grifter stories, as are most of us who don’t fabricate fake identities or take other peoples stories as our own. These tales offer a safe, vicarious thrill—an intriguing glimpse into lives seemingly unbound by the usual rules of right and wrong. (Plus, let’s ad...
Traci and Jess made pineapple mimosas to pregame for this one! You will never drink them with OJ again once you try pineapple 🍍😋🍹 We were able to really get into a good convo about this wild documentary without the distractions of our missing PodCats but we totally missed those wild pussycats. BTW - This was a recommendation of Traci's and it was SO GOOD! Here is the gist - thirty-six years after placing her baby girl for adoption, a woman discovered that the child had been missi...
Jess, Traci and Madison are all in the house discussing this insightful documentary that we ALL loved! The cocktails were flowing so the kitties got off track from time to time but you will get the gist of it. Stormy premiered on Peacock March 18, 2024. We all found Stormy Daniels to be a complex, deeply compassionate women and her story is that of a widely misunderstood individual. This goes into her childhood, her days as an adult contract star and then bridges into her ...
Jess, Madison and Traci are all in the house discussing the Docuseries about Ashley Madison on Netflix.

This person or persons got into their database and exposed the names, personal info and preferences of more than 30 MILLION users. There was a lot of cocktails when this was recorded, so bear with us and enj...
The PodCats are mostly all in the pod today with the exception of Traci who missed all of the chaos. Our friend Ivy joined us from Canada and we had a Tom Cat in the house!!

She claimed to be a spiritual savior and built a cult following through her online manifestos and live-streaming s...
Most of the PodCats are in the house to chat about a deadly love triangle in the Netflix Documentary called Lover, Stalker, Killer. This is the true story of how auto mechanic Dave Kroupa became the center of an online dating nightmare that resulted in years of stalking and harassment, arson, and a murder. There are interviews with Dave Kroupa, law enforcement officials, and other main people central to the events to help portray all the situations that occurred surrounding...
Most of the PodCats are in the house to chat about all the twists and turns in the INSANE Netflix docuseries about the kidnapping of Denise Huskins. This is a three-part docuseries from The Tinder Swindler filmmakers Felicity Morris and Bernadette Higgin. They did a great job combining interrogation footage, interviews, and audio recordings to describe how Denise Huskin and Aaron Quinn's story became a horrifying example of what can happen when the justice system fai...
All the cats are in the pod to discuss this absolutely insane docuseries about a young lady named Natalia Grace, who was initially assumed to be a 6-year-old Ukrainian orphan. Natalia was born with a rare bone growth disorder which added to some of the confusion when it was potentially discoverd that she may have actually been a fully grown adult at the time of her adoption. We needed a lot of cocktails for this one. The case had more twists and turns than your favorite roller coaster ...
All the cats are in the pod to discuss Dr. Paolo Macchiarini- the world famous surgeon revolutionizing stem cell-infused windpipe transplants. Especially when it comes to that tiny problem where his patients keep dying. Paolo is also quite the ladies man and the kitties are in awe of his elaborate lies and the amount of sheer deception in this very narcissistic Doctor. Madison gets pretty worked up in this one about the sheer insanity of these plastic devises and we...
Madison, Traci and Jess have a lot to say about this cult insanity. Clearly because it's one of our longest shows. We apologize in advance for how long this is and for the many distractions we had. Perhaps too much RumChata? Anyway, you might want to save this one for your next road trip! (Without the kids) This is a Netflix documentary that really comes down to the desperation so many people have to find love. The vulnerability one has in such desperation. And of cou...
The kitties are on the road at Erica's enjoying pineapple margaritas to discuss The Devil on Trial - a documentary of a "true" demonic possession. We learn about this family who is truly fractured by not only the possession but also the different views on what did or did not take place. At the center of the story is David Glatzel who was supposedly possessed at the age of 11. His story becomes entwined with the self-professed demonologists and paranormal investigators...
All the cats are in the pod except Madison who is celebrating she and her moms birthday! We are having cocktails with her 🍹🍷🍸 in spirit! Todays show took place at Ericas pad instead of the PodCat studio and lets just say, Erica makes a mean pineapple margarita. Today we are talking about the TINY LITTLE documentary on Hulu called "Ruby Franke A Momfluencer's Double Life” about the YouTube phenomenon called 8 Passengers. If you have been hearing about this on Tik Tok or you...

All the cats are in the pod discussing this crazy case from the 80s which was depicted in the movie, Indictment: The McMartin Trial. No, not a documentary but there are a few out there if you want to go bonkers with this and find them. The cats had a few too many cocktails, called in grammy cat, had a guest Tom Cat you will enjoy and veered off topic multiple times but you will get the GIST of this case regardless! Indictment: The McMartin Trial is based on a true story. It was written by...
MOST of the cats were in the pod to have cocktails and chat about this documentary that came out back in 2019. This was one of Netflix's Top 5 most-watched documentaries of 2019 but it does seem that a LOT of people missed it. This episode may have had more cocktails than crime because we were celebrating PodCat Traci's birthday. Excuse all the roads we went down that had nothing to do with the documentary. Vampire Porn, learning Russian and hypothetical hookups were a few diver...
