This week, we kick things off with a catch-up as always: featuring Dani’s recent vacation and a snorkeling experience that didn’t exactly go as planned (huge understatement).

Then we dive into the story behind the novel Killing and Seducing Nazis, exploring the real-life women who used charm, courage, and deception to fight back during one of history’s darkest times.

It’s equal parts chaos, history, and women who refused to play by the rules.

This week's episode opens with our usual chaotic banter, but be prepared for it to be a little extra unhinged. Dani is battling brutal allergies and is fully spiraling. She's in a very dark mental place, which means the jokes are coming fast and possibly a little too unfiltered. Just to be clear: the humor is a coping mechanism, not a lack of empathy. Once we get it together, we dive into one of the most disturbing cases we've covered: Las Poquianchis. This group of sisters operated a network of brothels in the mid-20th century Mexico that concealed a horrifying reality of exploitation, abuse, and murder. Dani and Gabe break down how the operation started, grew, continued for so long, and the devastating toll it had on the victims. From chaotic coping to a dark story.. listener discretion is advised.

A quiet home. A failing marriage. A 911 call that still haunts forums. This week we're diving into the case of Brandi Worley, a story that shocked a small Indiana town and sent the internet down a rabbit hole. Weeks before the tragedy, Brandi's husband Jason had been posting on Reddit asking strangers for advice about his crumbling marriage.. not knowing how the story would end
