   Ep. 41: Lori Vallow Daybell & the Doomsday Murders

   This week I'm joined by Alyssa to dive into one of the most disturbing and bizarre modern true crime cases: the “Doomsday Mom” murders of Lori Vallow Daybell. In Part 1, we unravel the apocalyptic beliefs, suspicious deaths, and the chilling disappearance of Tylee Ryan and J.J. Vallow that shocked the nation. This case is wild, recent, and deeply heartbreaking — and we’re just getting started. Part 2 drops next week, where we’ll cover the discovery of the bodies, the trials, and the jaw-dropping courtroom moments.
