oat milk is very bad for you, one serving negatively impacts your glycemic index as much as a can of Dr Pepper. most nut milks are bad for you try coconut milk
Two shows in and all I can say is cheers. Thanks for all the old serial killers episodes but I can't listen to the new slapstick style presentation it just doesn't work
good episode
I can't say that I'm a fan of this new direction. I appreciated the mature, intelligent, style of the original Serial Killers.
man o man why couldn't they pick a better host. following for years just for this
So sad to hear Ms Morgan is leaving....I really love her voice, she's been fantastic!!!
awww you were great. 😫
If anything, the ladies would have hoisted their Regency skirts 😉
but yeah I know 😜 but I g to go back stubs f w dumb I have i for my my is
How is it, no one has considered Edmund Kemper? Really!? the Zodiac....
please keep Ms Morgan as the host, she's fantastic!!!
this episode doesn't play 🤔
Damner gives serial killers a bsd name
One of the main reasons we like this channel, is the pure narration and insight, without interruptions of chitchat and giggling and whatnot. Could you please at least do a rerun of one of your shows or an episode of something similar. Just please not this. What happened to you #SerialKillers? We loved you.
What happened to episode two on Betty Lou?? It stops mid- sentence. Sloppy work folks…
I think they are both equally guilty and share equal responsibility. They are both just using the tools at their disposal to try and minimize their involvement.
ozimpec advert. please please please remove this advert. it is the worst thing I've heard
Such an interesting story....love the podcast. Hollywood should make a movie from this story.
look her up, definitely not a beauty
I worked at a dealership across the street from him. before he was caught he was seen pulling plastic bags out of the trash. after he was caught we realized these bags were the perfect size to go over a head. these bags were designed to deliver computers that were subject to recall, they were ant static and almost impossible to rip.
