Trigger WARNING: On Todays episode we will talk of Kidnapping and possible sexual assault of a minor. We understand the content of this episode may be heavy for some. If so, we will be back next week with content that you may be more used to. Or feel free to check out our previous episodes!
Today we are changing it up a bit. In earlier episodes we mentioned the possibility of diving into crime stories of the 90s. We wanted to start this series with a case that tortured our souls back then, and still does to this day. We are talking about the kidnapping and murder of Polly Hannah Klaas. The beautiful 12 year old, who was kidnapped from her home in Petaluma, California in 1993 during a sleepover with her friends. She was born in 1981... The year we were born! This is a case that we will never forget. After doing research and learning more specific details we were surprised by some of the infuriating things that transpired during the search for Polly. Not to mention new and important details that changed our judicial system forever because of things that unfolded.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
