Katie here! I’ve had a weird obsession with true crime since I was a girl. I remember watching forensic files by 10 (not your average Disney fan girl like ever).

Part of me feels like I can solve these cases myself, so join me as I try to. Therapy (sorta) and mediocre comedy included.
So here’s the deal: in this episode we’re talking Roe v. Wade — what it meant, how the Supreme Court ripped it apart, and why the fallout has been an absolute disaster.

In The Summer I Moved Back to Florida, I cover the heartbreaking story of Polly Klaas, the 12-year-old girl whose 1993 abduction and murder shocked the nation and forever changed the way we talk about child safety.

I also talk about music, concerts, and the culture that comes with them — the beer, the boots, and eve...
We’re talking Columbine — the lead-up, the day of, and the aftermath that shook the country. This isn’t just the timeline; it’s the culture, the media, and how this tragedy still fuels the fight over gun laws today. I’m also touching on immigration — from the broken system to the people paying the price — and what you can actually do to stand with immigrant communities.

On May 31, 2014, in Waukesha, Wisconsin, United States, two 12-year-old girls, Anissa Weier and Morgan Geyser, lured their friend Payton Leutner into a wooded area of a local park and stabbed her 19 times to appease the fictional character Slender Man.
