About this listen

Dead Giveaway is a true crime podcast with a twist, hosted by husband and wife duo Billy and Carley. Each episode explores a real-life murder, disappearance, or criminal case—told in a way that turns listeners into detectives.

In Part One, Billy walks Carley through a disguised version of a true crime story, changing names and certain details to protect identities and keep the mystery intact. As the case unfolds, Carley reacts in real time—analyzing motives, questioning suspects, and following the evidence to try to figure out who the killer or perpetrator is before the truth is revealed.

In Part Two, Billy pulls back the curtain and reveals the real crime, the actual people involved, and what truly happened—along with whether Carley’s instincts were right. Together, they break down the investigation, the psychology, and the overlooked clue that ultimately exposed the truth.

Every true crime has a tell.
A mistake. A slip. A moment that gives it all away.
The only question is—did you catch the dead giveaway?

    Episode 2 – Slaughterhouse (Pt. 1)

    In 2000, police respond to a scene so disturbing it defies easy explanation. As investigators dig deeper, a tangled network of relationships surfaces—blurring motives, muddying suspects, and complicating everything they thought they knew.

    In Part One, Billy walks Carley through a reconstructed version of Richard’s final hours, laying out the timeline, relationships, and eventually his murder. No conclusions. No clear suspect. Just fragments of truth, shifting perspectives, and details that may—or may not—matter.

    Will Carley have trouble guessing who the culprit is, or will it be a Dead Giveaway?
