Spin Docs is our new segment where we scrutinize true crime docuseries and documentaries. Today, we will speak about Netflix's Monster: The Ed Gein Story. This is the third season of Monster, a crime docudrama anthology series from Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan. We are joined by a very special guest: Harold Schechter. Schechter wrote a definitive book on Gein: Deviant: The Shocking True Story of the Original "Psycho." He told us about some of the blatant inaccuracies in this season of Monster.

The Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC.
Studying true crime tells us that sometimes, the worst can happen. There’s real danger out there, and you never know when it can strike within your own home.
The big problem with traditional home security systems is that they react after an intruder is already breaking in or inside. After your safety and space has already been violated. That’s why we trust Simplisafe to protect our home. And you can too — Murder Sheet listeners are going to get a great deal during Simplisafe’s biggest sale of the year, getting 60% off when you go to Simplisafe dot com slash MSHEET.
Our Simplisafe home security system is proactive. When your system detects potential criminals outside your residence, live agents are on it. They will confront potential criminals before they even break in, to let them know someone’s watching. That’s what Active Guard Outdoor Protection is all about. You don’t have to see any alerts. Monitoring agents take care of everything for you, confronting the intruders with the news that police are on the way, flashing spotlights, and sounding loud sirens. Plus, they have a 60 day money-back guarantee, so there’s no risk to you trying it out for yourself.
That innovativeness is why we’ve used Simplisafe for years. We trust them to protect ourselves as well as our dog and executive producer Lani. As true crime podcasters, we know all too well how important — how live-saving — a home security system can be. Our home is where we relax. Where we work. Where we sleep at night. We want to feel protected all the time, because we know all the scary stories. And we trust Simplisafe to prevent those kinds of things from happening to us.
Don’t miss out on SimpliSafe’s biggest sale of the year—60% off. Right now, our listeners can save 60% off on a SimpliSafe home security system at SimpliSafe dot com slash MSHEET. That’s SimpliSafe dot com slash MSHEET. There’s no safe like SimpliSafe.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
