True Crime Obsessed

Hey Fam! We’re so excited to share this conversation between Patrick, Josh Hallmark, host of the podcasts True Crime Bullshit and Unsafe Spaces, and Eric Carter-Landin, co-founder of AdvocacyCon and host of the podcast True Consequences.. In this conversation, Patrick, Josh, and Eric chat about why they podcast, how they go into it, the distinct perspectives of being gay men covering true crime, and they share the true crime podcasts they’ve loved over the past few years. This is a great opportunity to learn about podcasts you may not have heard of and, as Patrick says, to hear three queens flame out over the existence of an America’s Next Top model tell all podcast. It’s…sassy. Check out Josh and Eric's Stuff: True Crime Bullshit: True Crime Bullsh** is a serialized, investigative podcast that aims to identify the missing victims of serial killer Israel Keyes. Host Josh Hallmark has spent close to a decade combing through FBI files, analyzing interrogation videos, and working with experts in the field in this comprehensive and ground-breaking podcast. Unsafe Spaces: Unsafe Spaces explores the murders that corrupt and exploit the places we’re meant to feel the safest; be it our churches, the gay community, or even our own homes. Season one investigates a complex string of serial murders that occurred within the Tampa gay community between 1998 and 2006. True Consequences: Abq NM-based, award-winning true crime podcast, with advocacy-focused cases from the Southwestern state of New Mexico and the American Desert Southwest. AdvocacyCon: AdvocacyCon is a crime conference unlike any other. We bring together experts, non-profit organizations, families of the missing and murdered, and individuals passionate about advocating for justice. It aims to create a platform for education, connection, and collaboration in the fight for justice.

In April 2005, Ha Smith, a prominent Vietnamese-American fortune teller, and her adult daughter, Anita Vo, were found brutally murdered in Smith's home. They had been beaten and stabbed. The killer had stolen cash, jewelry, and credit cards, and poured white paint over the victims' heads and hands, a detail that initially led police to consider that it had been a ritualistic killing. It would take weeks and a cross country manhunt to uncover the truth. Fam, THIS. ONE. IS. WILD.

IT WAS GONNA BE A REALLY GOOD REALITY SHOW, FAM, WE SWEAR TO GODDESS! Ugh, in 2010, Lifetime TV ordered 8 episodes of a show called PI Moms. And it was supposed to be just as badass as it sounds: A group of women kicking ass, taking names, and solving crimes. The only problem is that WE CAN'T HAVE ANYTHING GOOD, and so it turns out, the whole enterprise was being run by a guy who not only didn't actually care about the show, but was also BUYING AND THEN SELLING DRUGS FROM A DIRTY COP, annnnnnnnd a completely different egomaniac dude was trying to derail the whole thing because the producers wouldn't make a show called PI MOMS ABOUT HIM. Like, you really can't make this stuff up. And there's a reason this (amazing) series is called Trainwreck. Ugh. ANYWAY GET READY TO HEAR US SCREAM FOR AN HOUR (sorry for yelling).

RIP the internet, Fam. Date of death:  Sometime in January 2020 when William White joined up! It started out innocent enough: some cute guy making lip-sync videos to 80s songs that made the ladies of a certain age swoon. But because we can't have anything nice, it all quickly went to hell. Fan groups formed, the bullying started, and the doxing, of course. And thennnnnnn William made a bunch of questionable choices. And we're gonna scream about it all. Join us, won't you?

On November 28, 1974, 28-year-old Karen Silkwood was killed in a car wreck on Highway 74 near Crescent, Oklahoma. Her death was officially ruled an accident. But her friends, family, and co-workers knew the real story: she had been killed for what she knew - and what she was about to do about it. In her car was a folder full of evidence that she was about to turn over to the New York Times detailing the plutonium  contamination of herself and her fellow workers at the local nuclear energy plant, and, crucially, evidence that the plant and THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, was complicit in nuclear proliferation - AKA GIVING FOREIGN POWERS THE TOOLS TO MAKE NUCLEAR WEAPONS.

It's a totally new kind of documentary film, fam, AND WE ARE HERE FOR IT! In 2021, Susan Lorincz moved in to an established family neighborhood in Ocala, Florida. She was a problem from day one. She hated the neighborhood kids who ran around, played football in the filed, and made noise AS KIDS ARE WONT TO DO. She called the police repeatedly, she made up stories, she called the kids horrific names, she threw things at them. And then on June 2, 2023, she committed murder. All the while thinking Florida's "stand your ground law" would protect her. She had another think coming.

ORDER YOUR DUNKIN' AND HIRE A TRANSLATOR, WE'RE GOING BACK TO CANTON, MASS! For today's episode, we're talking about the tragic murder of 23-year-old Sandra Birchmore, who was found dead in her apartment on February 4, 2021. The death was initially ruled a suicide by the town's CORRUPT medical examiner. It took Sandra's badass cousins and the incredible WOMAN chief to dig deeper and expose the years of abuse and exploitation that Sandra had suffered at the hands of a few local cops to get to the truth. And GP came to work today with ALL of the parallels to the Karen Read case that, incredibly, was being prosecuted in the same town at the same time and involving many of the same people. Honestly, can we get all the good people out of this town, fence it off, and start over? Ugh.
