Welcome to Season 4 – Episode 5!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

This week, We're on a road trip. I'm joined by my sister, Kirrah, as we take on one of the most disturbing cases in modern American crime history.

His name was Samuel Little, and for decades he moved through cities virtually invisible. Between the 1970s and early 2000s, Little murdered women across the United States while law enforcement repeatedly failed to connect the cases or, in many instances, failed to investigate them at all.

We're going to break down Samuel Little's, how racism, sexism, and systemic neglect allowed his victims’ deaths to be misclassified or dismissed, and how a series of late-life confessions finally forced the FBI to reckon with the true scope of his crimes.

This episode isn’t just about the most prolific serial killer in U.S. history, it’s about the systems that enabled him, the lives that were overlooked, and the uncomfortable reality that justice only arrived when it was too late.

Grab your drink, because the poison in this episode is the Road Trip.

If you want to drink with us, you’ll need cognac, rye whiskey, crème de cassis (black currant) liqueur, lemon juice, lingonberry preserves, salt and sugar.

The Road Trip:

• 1 oz cognac
• 1 oz rye whiskey
• ½ oz crème de cassis or black currant liqueur
• 1 barspoon lingonberry preserves
• 1 oz lemon juice
• granulated sugar, for rim
• kosher salt, for rim
• lemon twist, for garnish (optional)

Combine equal parts salt and sugar and use the mixture to rim a chilled serving glass. Add the remaining ingredients to a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake hard for about 20 seconds. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with lemon - or don’t.

Enjoy!

Welcome to Season 4 – Episode 4!

This week, we’re taking a sharp left turn from Kansas and landing in Miami Beach. In July of 1997, world-renowned fashion icon Gianni Versace was gunned down on the steps of his own mansion.

And at the center of it all? A social climber named Andrew Cunanan.

Today, we’re digging into how a kid from San Diego spiraled into a cross-country killing spree, how he managed to stay one step ahead of the entire country for three months, and how it all ended in Miami leaving the fashion world in shambles.

Let's break down the chaos that Cunanan left behind. Grab your drink, because the poison in this episode is The Red Carpet.

If you want to drink with us, you’ll need vodka, Campari, pomegranate liqueur, lemon, and simple syrup.

The Red Carpet:

• 1 1/2 ounces vodka
• 1 ounce Campari
• 1 ounce pomegranate liqueur
• 1/2 ounce simple syrup
• Lemon slice, for garnish

Shake the all ingredients with ice, strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with lemon - or don’t.

Enjoy!

Welcome to Season 4 - Episode 3!

This week, we’re heading to Wichita, Kansas. The quiet little town that wasn’t so quiet once BTK showed up.

Bind. Torture. Kill. That’s what he called himself. And for thirty years, he hid behind the mask of a husband, father, church leader, and city code enforcer while secretly turning his darkest fantasies into reality.

My sister Kirrah is joining me this week to unpack how a man that ordinary managed to fool everyone including his family, his congregation, and even the cops.

Grab your drink, because the poison in this episode is The Forbidden Sour.

If you want to drink with us, you’ll need bourbon, lemon juice, pomegranate syrup, and simple syrup.

The recipe for The Forbidden Sour is as follows:

• 2 oz Bourbon
• 3/4 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
• 1/2 oz Pomegranate Liqueur (or Grenadine)
• 1/4 oz Simple Syrup (optional, for sweetness)

Shake all ingredients with ice until chilled, then strain into a rocks glass over ice. Garnish with a lemon twist if you’re feeling fancy.

Enjoy!
