Twists and turns galore in my interview with Jerry Drake about the much maligned Hazel Drew and her tragic death.

My latest interview is with Clem Pellett - who made it his mission to find out more about the murder of his grandfather in 1951, and in the process helped capture a fugitive. An absolutely fascinating story!

A big thank you to Margaret Carson and Sharon Anne Cook for generously sharing their deeply personal (and traumatic) experiences with such insight, humor, and grace!

Mary Noe has got quite a story on her hands. Erich Muenter likely murdered his wife, then later tried to assassinate a famous banking magnate after bombing the Capitol building. Give the latest episode of Most Notorious a listen when you have a chance!

It's been far too long since we've covered a good ol' fashioned high seas pirate captain on Most Notorious. This be the week, mateys! My conversation with Craig S Chapman at the link, or wherever you listen...

Nothing criminal about this photo - just my grandfather surrounded by his sisters and cousins on the family farm in Puposky, Minnesota in the early 20s.

I don't know why I haven't been able to connect to more authors who have written about Virginia's Most Notorious, but glad for the opportunity to talk to Greg Lilly about the boardinghouse murder of a young war veteran.

Rachel McCarthy James returned to my show to discuss her new book (officially out on 5/13) about the history of axe murder. It's a fascinating subject with a history that dates back to prehistoric times.

Enjoyed my interview with Jennifer Sellitti! I can never resist a story about maritime disasters and this is a fascinating one.

Well that was something Torontonians probably didn't see every day - gun battles on busy streets in the middle of the afternoon! My latest interview is all about Canada's notorious Beatle Bandit.

I finally got Gary on! We first communicated back in early 2016 about the possibility of him coming on the show. As a rule, he only does interviews about books that are freshly published, which is very understandable, especially when in the middle of a new project. One of my Patrons, Megan commented on Patreon that "hell has no fury like a woman scorned", and in Laura Fair's case, I think she is right on the mark!
