  • The rampage of Laurie Dann & the murder of Nick Corwin | Ep 237
    Mar 22 2026

    Skip the banter: 00:05:44

    Long before the shooting in Winnetka, there were police calls, medical notes, and repeated concerns from people who felt something was wrong. Each response addressed the immediate problem, but none seemed to connect the larger pattern that was forming. Allison walks through the documentation step by step, highlighting the detail that makes the timeline feel harder to dismiss.

  • The murder of Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan | Ep 236
    Mar 15 2026

    Skip the banter: 00:08:26 (give or take a min depending on ads)

    A man claims he shot an intruder who was attacking his wife, but the circumstances surrounding how that stranger ended up inside the house quickly draw scrutiny. As investigators examine messages, timelines, and the people living under the same roof, the explanation offered that morning becomes harder to accept. Allison lays out the sequence of events and the detail that made detectives start looking at the case in a completely different way.

  • The murder of Toyah Cordingley | Ep 235
    Mar 8 2026

    Skip the banter: 00:08:27 Give or take a min for ads

    When Toyah Cordingley went to walk her dog at Wangetti Beach in 2018, it should have been an ordinary afternoon. Instead, investigators were left piecing together phone records, traffic footage, and movements that didn’t fully line up with what anyone expected. Allison tells the story of how the evidence unfolded and the detail that continued to raise questions about what happened on that beach.

Love this couple. Crime talk with friends. They tell these stories with respect for the victims and the families on both sides. They are real. If something bothers them or is horrible they express it, you can hear it in their voices.

Giving Back the Love

Well it’s time for me to “put out.” It is obvious that they care and get pulled into these cases. They do an amazing job telling the story. When they laugh, I laugh. When they cry, I cry. It feels like you’re sitting across from them and hearing these stories.

My favorite true crime podcast!
