This week we’re yapping about one of the most infamous true crime sagas of the 2000s: the Amanda Knox case. From the shocking murder in Perugia to the chaotic media frenzy and the years of trials, appeals, and retrials, we unpack how the story spiraled into a global spectacle. We dive into the sensational headlines, the frustrating arrest, and the way Amanda herself became a character in a twisted narrative she couldn’t control. Was this a case of justice gone wrong—or a reminder of how easily public opinion can become its own court? Grab your espresso (or wine) because this is a ride through scandal, spin, and the strange blur between fact and fiction.
