The Rat in the Trousers - Christopher Baker
Apr 1500:07:18Tap to summarizeValentine’s Day 2015 was supposed to be a day of romance and "International Authentic Dishes" at Sunderland’s famous Borneo Bistro. But for 28-year-old Christopher Baker, the only thing on the menu was a desperate, drunken, and poorly calculated scheme. After finishing a full buffet meal, Baker stood up and pointed to a "pockmarked" visitor on the floor: a live black-and-white rat. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Up in Flames - The Coulthurst Family Murders
Apr 1400:36:47Tap to summarizeIn September 1982, the Investor - a state-of-the-art salmon boat - was found drifting and engulfed in flames just off the coast of Fish Egg Island, Alaska. What the Coast Guard found in the embers was a nightmare: the remains of Mark and Irene Coulthurst, their two young children, and four teenage deckhands. It remains one of the worst mass homicides in Alaskan history. So who did it? Why did they do it? And where are they now? --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Rock Bottom - Robert Downey Jr.
Apr 1000:10:16Tap to summarizeIn the mid-90s, Robert Downey Jr. was widely considered the most gifted actor of his generation. But while critics were comparing him to Chaplin, the LAPD was seeing a man spiraling toward a tragic end. From a high-speed arrest on Sunset Boulevard with a .357 Magnum to the infamous afternoon he wandered into a neighbor's home and fell asleep in a child's bed, Downey’s life became a series of "front-page" disasters that nearly silenced one of cinema’s brightest lights. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Smile - Timothy and Alyssa Bradburn
Apr 800:07:40Tap to summarizeTimothy Bradburn had just returned to his Spokane home from a trip to Hawaii, keys and suitcase still in hand, when he was met with a lethal ambush. The shooter wasn't a stranger, but his 33-year-old daughter, Alyssa, who had spent weeks practicing at a gun range and journaling about her plan to kill him. In a case that moved from a claim of self-defense to a blunt courtroom confession, the Pacific Northwest was left searching for a motive that never came. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

The Barbarian Queen - Lana Clarkson
Apr 700:40:14Tap to summarizeLana Clarkson was a woman of "big dreams and new shoes." A cult-cinema icon known to fans as the Barbarian Queen, Lana was a fixture of the 1980s Los Angeles scene, appearing in everything from Scarface to Three’s Company. At forty years old, she wasn’t a woman in despair; she was a woman in transition, working as a hostess at the House of Blues to fund her own independent production, Lana Unleashed. She was a daughter and a friend who, on her final day of life, was still shopping for the future. Enter reclusive and volatile music producer Phil Spector, a man accused by many of having "demonic" tendencies when mixing alcohol and firearms. Jamie and John center today's story on Lana’s vibrant life and the chilling circumstances of its end. We examine the early morning of February 3, 2003, when Lana was murdered in cold blood. We look at the evidence that painted a picture of a woman who was held captive in a "Pyrenees Castle" she never intended to stay in, and the brave testimony of the women who came before her to reveal Spector’s long-standing pattern of violence. This is an episode dedicated to reclaiming Lana’s memory from the shadow of her killer’s fame and ensuring she is remembered as the hero of her own story. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Cyanide - Michael Marin
Apr 100:11:14Tap to summarizeThis is a story that feels like a Greek tragedy set in a Maricopa County courtroom. Michael Marin was a man who lived his life at the highest possible altitude, both literally and financially, and it seems he simply could not reconcile a reality where he was grounded by a prison cell. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

After her husband Eric died suddenly in 2022, she wrote a children’s book to help their three sons navigate grief.

Innocent Until Proven Dirtbag - Mary Carole McDonnell
Mar 2700:07:13Tap to summarizeMary Carole McDonnell was the CEO of a successful Burbank production company, behind true crime hits like I Married a Murderer. But behind the scenes, the company was hemorrhaging cash. To keep the lights on and the payroll moving, the 73-year-old allegedly stepped into a role of her own making: the secret heir to the McDonnell Aircraft fortune. In this episode of True Crime To Go, John and Jamie break down the brazen 2017–2018 fraud scheme that allegedly siphoned nearly $30 million from financial institutions. We detail how she used a non-existent $80 million trust fund to bait banks, the federal indictment that followed in 2018, and her current status on the FBI’s Most Wanted list. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!
