On February 3, 2003, cops were called to the home - OH EXCUSE ME, I MEANT TO SAY SUUUUUUPER TACKY CASTLE. YES CASTLE - of music producer and "legend" Phil Spector. Spector claimed that a woman had come into his home and then killed herself in his foyer. If that sounds insane, it's because it is and it is DEFINITELY not what happened. The woman's name was Lana Clarkson AND SHE WAS FREAKING AWESOME. Of course the trial was a circus. SPECTOR WORE WIGS FOR DAYS. Oh and Alan Jackson from the Karen Read case is back and has some crazy shit to say. JUST ANOTHER DAY AT THE OFFICE, FAM!

In the early morning hours of June 5, 2002, a man appeared in 14-year-old Elizabeth Smart's bedroom at her home in Salt Lake City, Utah. He put a knife to her neck, told her if she screamed he would kill her, and marched her out of the house and into the woods. The only witness was Elizabeth's 9 year old sister Mary Katherine. For the first time, both of them are telling their complete stories. From Elizabeth's harrowing nine months with her captors to Mary Katherine's traumatizing experience in isolation trying to remember all the details of that terrifying night, we're gonna unpack AND SCREAM ABOUT IT ALL. Join us for this tough but inspiring journey. Ugh. OK, here we go!
