In 1987, Canadian couple Tanya Van Cuylenborg and Jay Cook embarked on a short trip to Seattle—but never returned home. Their bodies were found days apart, brutally murdered in remote areas of Washington State. With few leads and no clear motive, the case went cold for over 30 years. In this gripping episode, we explore the haunting details of the couple’s final hours, the trail of evidence left behind, and how a revolutionary tool—genetic genealogy—finally identified their killer in 2018. This case not only marked a turning point in forensic science but also brought long-overdue answers to two devastated families.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
