Wow it's been a long time, but Amber is back in full force! In this episode, guest co-host Sarah is introduced to the craziness that is 21st Century Crime. Show her some love! We first talk about the movie, The Haunting of Sharon Tate and the travesty that was Big Brother 21.

Sarah then jumps into a discussion on Randy Woodfield aka the I-5 Killer, her current connection to him and even Amber's current connection to him! After that, Amber gets into a September 11th conspiracy. Kurt Sonnenfeld wanted to tell the world what he found at Ground Zero and then a few months later he was held in prison for the murder of his wife. 

For our receipts of the week, Amber talks about her haunted experience at Zak Bagan's Haunted Museum and her continued obsession with Billie Eilish. Sarah shares a hilarious family moment that you've all probably experienced.

16: Discussion on the 1-5 Killer/ September 11th Conspiracy of Kurt Sonnenfeld

It's episode 15 and we can hardly believe it! With great sadness, Amanda has to step down from the podcast and talks about that in our opening. We do however have a great replacement who will be joining Amber on the next episode, so stay tuned! Of course, we then cover our basic Hulu/Netflix obsessions like Veronica Mars and the new season of Mindhunter. 

Then we get right into it. Amanda starts off her last story with the VERY recent murders of Chynna Dees, Lucas Fowler and Leonard Dyck. The entire timeline of the murders is revealed and we go over what has been released to the public. Next, Amber explains the Slender Man stabbings which involves a creepypasta story that took on a life of its own.

It's time to talk about how great Jon Groff is because sometimes...all you need is crime!

15: Canada Highway Murders/ Slender Man Stabbing

What's up millenial crimesters! In this week's episode we discuss some crazy crime stories that have been in the news recently, including all of that Area 51 madness. Amber also brings up Stranger Things WITH SPOILERS so if you haven't watched the most recent season, you've been warned! Amanda talks about the new series Chernobyl and how she's recently been obsessed with Love Island.

We then jump right into crimes that have happened within the last few years. Amber goes first and talks about the affluent Van Breda family, who's mysterious death might not be as mysterious as you think. Then Amanda discusses the decline of a seemingly normal college student, Austin Harrouff. Take a look at his YouTube videos under the name Austi Frosti, it's hard to believe what he did not long after they were posted.

It' time to book your flight to Area 51 because sometimes...all you need is crime!

14: Van Breda Axe Murders/Florida's Cannibal Killer

Gals and guys we are back...finally with a new episode! Of course we start off with two creepy Netflix recommendations, Dead Like Me and Slasher (specifically season 2) and briefly talk about how we can't stand Jussie Smollett anymore *insert eye roll here*.

Amanda jumps right into the first story of Michele Marie Somers (MacNeill). Who overall deserved a wayyy better husband than the one she ended up with. She was a loving and caring wife, who fell into a marriage with a manipulating liar named Martin. 

Amber then tells the ongoing case of The Watcher. Who mysteriously sends letters to a family who bought a new house in Westfield, NJ. If you think you have invasive neighbors and an annoying HOA, just wait until you hear about the Broaddus family's ordeal!
