Description

Each week, we hang out together to explore real-life crimes that leave more questions than answers. From small-town secrets to shocking twists, nothing is ever as simple as it seems.

I'll talk about it from my couch, you listen to it from yours. And although it is fun talking through a camera, I sure do wish you were here.

🎙️ A Mom Spent 23 Years Doing What Police Couldn't. She Found Her Daughter's Killer In this episode: In June 1996, 18-year-old Angie Dodge was found murdered in her Idaho Falls apartment — just three weeks after moving in on her own. Her mother Carol had rocked her in her arms the night before and said goodbye. Police zeroed in on Chris Tapp, a 20-year-old with no DNA match to the crime scene, and after 28 hours of interrogation over 23 days, extracted a confession experts would later call the worst case of police fact-feeding they had ever seen. Tapp spent 20 years in prison for a murder he did not commit. The real killer — Brian Dripps — lived directly across the street from Angie the entire time. It took a grieving mother, a DNA expert, and 23 years of fighting to finally put the right man behind bars.  #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #Podcast #CrimeStory #AngieDodge #AngieDodgeStory #Convicted #TrueStory #IWishYouWereHerePod #UnsolvedMystery #TrueCrimeStoryteller 🎧 Listen to the Podcast Apple Podcasts:I Wish You Were Here on Apple Podcast Spotify:I Wish You Were Here on Spotify All Platforms: https://hoo.be/mshellllly 🤝 This Episode Is Sponsored By COZY EARTH Go to COZYEARTH.COM/WISH for 20% off!  🔗 Link: http://COZYEARTH.COM/WISH  🌐 Follow Me TikTok: TikTok Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mshellllly/ YouTube: I Wish You Were Here on YouTube 🖤 Disclaimer This episode discusses real events involving real people.

In this episode: On December 30, 2025, dentist Spencer Tepe didn't show up for work. When police arrived at his Columbus home for a welfare check, they found him and his wife Monique shot to death. Their two young children, ages 1 and 4, were unharmed inside the house. Within weeks, investigators arrested Monique's ex-husband, vascular surgeon Michael McKee. Surveillance footage showed him stalking the couple's home weeks before the murders. Friends say he'd been threatening Monique for years, telling her he could "kill her at any time" and that "she will always be his wife." This is the story of a divorce that turned deadly—and the red flags surrounding the case.  #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #Podcast #CrimeStory #DoubleHomicide #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #MichaelMcKee #TrueStory #IWishYouWereHerePod #UnsolvedMystery #TrueCrimeStoryteller 🎧 Listen to the Podcast Apple Podcasts: I Wish You Were Here on Apple Podcast Spotify:I Wish You Were Here on Spotify All Platforms: https://hoo.be/mshellllly 🤝 This Episode Is Sponsored By COZY EARTH Start the New Year off right and give your home the luxury it deserves, and make home the best part of life.  🔗 Link: cozyearth.con/WISH for up to 20% off! 🤝 This Episode Is Sponsored By REMI Start the new year right and use code WISH to get  50% off your purchase of a new night guard! 🔗 Link: shopremi.com/WISH  🌐 Follow Me TikTok: TikTok Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mshellllly/ YouTube: I Wish You Were Here on YouTube 🖤 Disclaimer This episode discusses real events involving real people.

🎙️ The Elite Names in Epstein's Birthday Records : Following the Paper Trail In this episode: In 2003, Ghislaine Maxwell — Jeffrey Epstein's close associate and later his convicted co-conspirator — put together a gift for Epstein's 50th birthday. She called it The First Fifty Years. It's a THICK, leather-bound scrapbook, 238 pages long, filled with handwritten letters, personal photos, crude drawings, and inside jokes from some of the most powerful people on the planet. For years, this book sat hidden. Then in July 2025, the Wall Street Journal broke the story of its existence. In September 2025, the House Oversight Committee released it publicly  - after subpoenaing it from Epstein's estate. Today, we're breaking down what's in this book, who contributed, what it tells us about Epstein's network, and what we still don't know. Let's get into it.  #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #Podcast #CrimeStory #EpsteinFiles #JeffreyEpstein #GhislaineMaxwell #EpsteinFiles #Survivor #MeTooMovement #IWishYouWereHerePod #UnsolvedMystery #TrueCrimeStoryteller 🎧 Listen to the Podcast Apple Podcasts:I Wish You Were Here on Apple PodcastSpotify:I Wish You Were Here on Spotify All Platforms: https://hoo.be/mshellllly 🤝 This Episode Is Sponsored By MINT MOBILE This January, quit overspending on wireless with 50% off Unlimited premium wireless.
