    Oct 15 2026
    In this remastered episode from 2018, Wendy and Beth dive into the disturbing story of Maury Travis, the St. Louis serial killer who tortured and murdered women while recording his crimes on videotape. We explore his early life, the murders, and the shocking clue that ultimately led investigators straight to his door. Along the way, we examine the history of St. Louis, the impact of racism, poverty, and the crack epidemic, and how vulnerable women became targets for a predator hiding in plain sight. We also discuss what may have driven Travis to kill and share our takeaways. This episode was researched, scripted & edited by Wendy & Beth Williams. Thanks for listening!

  • Written in Blood

    Written in Blood
    Sep 3 2026
    In this remastered episode from 2018, Beth and Wendy discuss Timothy Wilson Spencer, the “Southside Strangler,” who raped and murdered four women during an 11-week killing spree in Virginia in 1987. Even more disturbing? Most of the murders happened while Spencer was living in a halfway house, striking on weekends when he was signed out. Spencer never confessed, and investigators had little evidence tying him to the crimes until a groundbreaking new technology changed everything. DNA from the crime scenes matched Spencer, making him the first serial killer in the U.S. convicted using DNA evidence.

  • The Sunday Morning Slasher

    The Sunday Morning Slasher
    Aug 27 2026
    In this remastered episode from 2018, Wendy and Beth revisit the chilling case of the Sunday Morning Slasher - a killer who attacked and murdered women across Michigan and Texas, leaving behind crimes that initially appeared to have no connection. Behind the violence was Carl Eugene “Coral” Watts, a serial killer who claimed he was destroying the “evil” he believed he saw in his victims. But perhaps the most shocking part of Watts’ story came after he was caught. A controversial plea deal granted him immunity for the murders he confessed to—and eventually left authorities scrambling to find a way to keep a serial killer from walking free. This episode was researched, scripted, and edited by Wendy & Beth Williams. Thanks for listening! Until next time... look alive y’all, it's crazy out there!
