Murder in the Central Valley

Murder in the Central Valley

The Central Valley in California refers to an elongated flat stretch of land that run north to south right thru the center of the state. Its about 60 miles wide and about 450 miles long. This flat land has mild temperatures making it ideal for agriculture. There's lots of farms but also cities and towns polka dot the region. This area has had lots of high profile murders in the past. The C.V. was home to Scott and Lacy Peterson, and even the Golden State Killer. This Podcast takes a look at some of the horrific murders that have happened throughout the years. Not necessarily the ones that you still hear about, but ones that made their way thru the news cycle and are sadly forgotten about. Lives were destroyed, and families shattered only for their loved ones memory to fade into the ether forever. The goal is to tell the story, without re-victimizing the victims. I hope you enjoy this. It really is a labor of love. -Kurt

    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.
