    #560 - Solving A Murder Puzzle - Chicopee, Massachusetts
    Jan 11 2025

    This week, in Chicopee, Massachusetts, who could have brutally killed a happy, bubbly, very cool young woman in her own home? It's a mystery, but detectives have DNA, some very small shoe prints, and a name, written on a white board to go on. When a suspect is found, he has many different stories to tell, including one that has him risk his life to save hers. But it's all a lie, and the only question is, will the jury believe any of it??


    Along the way, we find out that central Massachusetts LOVES kielbasa, that having a famous name won't get you a great job, and that when your DNA is under a victim's fingernails, you better have a pretty good explanation!!

    #559 - Be My Baby - Keokuk, Iowa
    Jan 9 2025

    This week, in Keokuk, Iowa, it's absolute madness, when a woman & her baby son disappear. Her car is found, but no sign of the pair. Then, some very strange events take place, and the baby is found safe & sound, in a completely unexpected place. This unravels one of the most insane tales that could exist, filled with murder & one person's lies, stories, and outright head shaking craziness!!


    Along the way, we find out that no bands want to play The Dam Festival, that if you're told that your wife gave birth in the bathtub, while you were at work, maybe you should question it, and that fake a pregnancy once, shame on you, fake a pregnancy twice...

  • #558 - Helping Mom With Murder - Grovetown, Georgia

    #558 - Helping Mom With Murder - Grovetown, Georgia
    Jan 4 2025

    This week, in Grovetown, Georgia, a woman is horribly murdered, in her own home, in what looks like an interrupted burglary. The house next door is also burglarized. But once the story begins to become more clear, it's obvious that this is actually a complicated plan of killing & cover up, all to be able to more easily have an affair, and has a mother & son looking down the barrel of very long prison sentences!!


    Along the way, we find out that Nelly won't even come to the county fair, that having someone shoot at you, doesn't make you innocent of murder, and that some people will never acknowledge the truth, even when it's being screamed in their face!!

Not the same old murder cases

James researches and writes about the murder cases and Jimmy hears about the cases when we do so his reactions are real and express the shock and horror that the rest of us feel. James provides an overview of the town and sometimes the times since some of the murders are from the 1970s or 1980s. The best part of this podcast is these two cover cases that have not been done on every other true crime podcast and have only covered a handful of cases that I have heard on other podcasts. A side benefit of this podcast is James's books suggestions. I've listened to several of the books that he has suggested and I enjoyed all of them.

Potato revolver or mom pee-er? Can't decide.

YAYYYYYY!!!

So glad I can finally review STM! Never did figure that out on Google podcasts. These guys are hilarious! The number of times I have cracked up and had to pull over while driving is just... innumerable. I die every time James says "it's just haw-rrible" in his NY accent. Jimmie is a sessy beast with a heart of gold. These guys make murder fun 😜

Listen to these guys

They threatened to kick me in the balls if I didn’t leave them a good review. They’re lucky I actually love the show. Listen to the podcast for stories you’ve probably never heard of and for the jokes.

The BEST True Crime Podcast

My absolute favorite true crime podcast. James & Jimmie together are lightning in a bottle. James' deep research, and ability to find the unknown stories,, surpasses all other podcasts. His storytelling abilities are topnotch. Jimmie is, well, Jimmie. These two friends knock it out of the park every week!

Love you guys so much!

These guys are great! Fun laughing at small towns (just like the one I live in) with stories that hook you and make you cringe at the same time. My husband and I have become fans - we listen every weekend after the kids go to bed. Carry on Jimmie and James! :)
