EP 25: A Girl Named Holly, Who Likes a Good Wood | Dorothy Stratten and Ramón Novarro
To be clear, this episode is about Hollywood, not wood as a weapon. So, if you've ever wondered about those killings that are shrouded in the glitz and glam of Hollywood, today's your day! Are we surprised that Hugh Hefner and homophobia play a huge role in our stories? Unfortunately, no.
First, Brandon introduces us to a Dorothy Stratten, a woman that went from being an ice cream attendant to Playboy's Playmate of the Year. Not that we need to take anything this guy says seriously, but Hugh Hefner went on the record to say:
"There is still a great tendency for this thing to fall into the classic cliché of ‘small town girl comes to Playboy, comes to Hollywood, life in the fast lane… That is not what really happened. A very sick guy saw his meal ticket and his connection to power, whatever, slipping away. And it was that that made him kill her."
At the end of the day, that's a very convenient narrative for Hugh, the ring leader of the Playboy Mansion, to subscribe to. So you'll just have to listen for yourself to decide what you think is true!
Next, Kevin takes us way back in time to the 20s when the...dust bowl ...happened?? Oh wait, no! The Roaring 20s... That's what he meant. Those two historical events are apparently pretty easily confused!
But, if you've ever taken a film history class, you've probably heard the name Ramon Navarro. He was a Mexican Actor who began his career in 1917 in American silent films. He quickly became a leading man and one of the top Actors of the 1920s and early 1930s films!
His life would end tragically when two homophobic and deeply disturbed hustlers decided to play judge, jury and executioner. Tune-in to learn what came of his assailants. We hope it will make you incredibly angry so we can all grab our pitchforks and go...vote! This is your friendly reminder to get out there and vote this November!!

EP 24: Hammer Time | Tyler Hadley and Brian Blackwell
After today's episode, you'll never look at your toolbox the same way! Or children for that matter. We drunkenly decided on this week's topic: death by hammer. And what did we find? Creepy little men killing their parents! Who's surprised!?
Kevin takes us on a journey to Tyler Hadley's place where a band of teenagers unknowingly throw a huge rager while Tyler's parents lay dead under a pile of coffee grounds. Sounds effed up, right? It is. Almost as effed up as the fact that none of us were invited to huge parties like that in high school...
Seriously though, Tyler was a creep who premeditated his parent's murder. And, even with it being premeditated, he still chose a hammer as his weapon. There's a lot to unpack there... But one major takeaway: if your friend is randomly bringing up their fixation with the idea of killing their parents - maybe take them seriously!
Then, Brandon takes us to the UK to answer the question "who killed the Blackwell's"? Turns out - it's their freak of a son! After basically robbing his parents by lying to the bank (a feat we still can't quite wrap our brains around), Brian Blackwell went insane with the hammer he just so happened to be holding.
Moral of these stories? Don't have children! Or if you do, don't give them any sharp or heavy objects until they've successfully proven themselves to be mentally sane.
If you enjoy this episode, it's time to get loud! We want to hear from you - whether it's through comments or reviews, your support is what keeps us going. See you next week for some saucy Hollywood creammmmms!

EP 23: We Choose The Bear | The Ripper Crew and Richard Speck
Are you choosing the bear or the man? After today's episode, we think you'll join us in choosing the bear. If you're not on TikTok and you have no idea what we're talking about - women across social media are saying that if they had to choose between being attacked by a man or a bear, they would choose the bear.
And what state do you think of when you think of the bear? That's right! Chicago. So sit back and relax (?) while Kevin and Brandon tell the tale of two absolute monsters that terrorized the city. Speaking of... Chicago has a very long list of serial killers. What's going on there? If you're based in Chicago, please clue us in.
Brandon kicks us off with The Ripper Crew. TRIGGER WARNING: female body mutilation. The Ripper Crew consisted of 4 homely, inbred-looking white dudes. Are we surprised? Robin Gecht, Edward Spreitzer and brothers Andrew and Thomas Kokoraleis went on a killing spree that ended in satanic sacrifices.
We say they look inbred because they... probably are. For some unknown reason, the kinks of the fathers and grandfathers before them were passed down. Why you would even be aware of what your grandfather's sexual kink is, we will never know.
Robin set up a “satanic chapel “ in the attic of his family home. The three would often meet when his wife was not home. This attic space was only lit by candlelight, had an altar that was draped with a red cloth, and had six red and black crosses at the back of it. If that doesn't give you an eerie sneak peak into the vibes of this story, we don't know what will.
Next, Kevin is telling us all about one of America's first mass m$rders (censored so YT doesn't shadowban us!). Richard Speck killed eight female nursing students in something the coroner called the, “crime of the century.”
You'll hear about the sole survivor of Speck's rampage. Hearing the way she recounted the story and then stood up and called out Speck in court is really a feat. Considering the current state of this country and the sheer amount of mass m$rders we see on a weekly basis, it's a bit surreal to learn more about the first documented one.
But perhaps the most interesting thing about this case is what Richard did once he was in prison. Stick around for the end to hear about this... strange turn of events.
If you enjoy this episode, slap my a$$ like a drum AKA - leave us a rating/review and share it with your friends on socials! They deserve to be deeply disturbed by true crime tales told by two homos just as much as you do! Also, register to VOTE! kthanx.
