S2 E6: Malpractices

G'morn! Oh Beany-beans. It sure is lovely to see your sweet face at the breakfast nook... but this time... with wine. We hope you are happy and healthy, because you wouldn't want to meet any of these doctors from todays episode.

Good Morning, Bean-o-rinos! We are starting the week with a full mug and a doctor that is just full of it.

You are the best advocate for your health, so keep your head on a swivel for healthcare fraud. Science and natural remedies can be used together!

G'Morning! Let's start the week around the breakfast nook with some hot brews over a cold hearted monster. In this episode we discuss a cycle of abuse that reminds us that we need to have kids backs.

Goooooooooooooooooooood Mourning Beans! We are BACK and more caffeinated than ever. It's season two, which means we have a bunch of new messed up stories of true crime to share around the breakfast nook. For this first episode of season 2, we talk about the importance of double checking and when people in positions of power... like doctors... take advantage of their patients.

Today we chat about the experience of making this pod, what we've learned, and shine a big ol' sparkly disco light on our bloopers.

G'Mourning! Clutch your mugs and settle in around the breakfast nook, Beans... because this is the rant that inspired the episode, that inspired the headache, that is this case.

Good mourning beans and brothers. Today we are coming in hot as a fresh pot of coffee to talk about a 5'1½" turd that was never held responsible. Follow us as we confidently lead you through the back halls of this case, aaaaalll the way to a verdict that is as bitter as bad coffee.

S1 E29: Execution Survivors

Mernin' Beans! What is up with the human obsession with morbid stuff like public executions? This week we discover what happens when these go right... until they go very wrong.

Mournin' Beans. We are pouring a cup and thanking Adam for the nightmares -or rather... daymares? Mourmares? Anyway this is a tale of incredible neglect that lead to even worse and horrifying abuse.

Good Momu, Beanybabies! It's FINALLY happening. Amanda is finally telling the tale of the bloody brutal Borden murders. This week we talk theories, birdie-cide, and the importance of... I dunno, not leaving a crime scene alone with suspects for two whole days? We're no experts, but something seems a-miss in Fall River and we are fixin' to postulate and caffeinate.

Happy Hallo-Bean! We are squeezing every last bit out of these spooky grounds with a three-fer. We each brought a different crime that happened on Halloweens of yore.

S1 E19: Ted Bundy (Part Four, The Teddening, The Final Final Sip)

Mournin'! It's time to bring this PhanTed Menace to a close. We've spent a lot of time with Bundy, and have given him a lot of mental space throughout the month of October, so it is only fitting that we debrief with the Netflix series 'Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes'. We binge the series and chat about about how we perceive ourselves vs how we are seen. Who are you when nobody is around? Who was Ted without someone to manipulate or seek approval from? Why was this case so gross...

Good Mourning! Part three is the way to be as we near the end of Nicole's "Ted Talks", that slippery little sucker. This episode discusses the frustrating end of Ol' Bundy-boy, and the wake of devastation he left behind him. Twas Florida killed the beast. What would we have found out if he wasn't put to death? Theres still so many victims that were never found, and probably so many more that we don't know about... but we took away the chance to appease the public. Just something to think about o...

Espresso Shot: Sally Hardesty and Leatherface

Mournin'! Spooky season means TWO EPISODES A WEEK! Our first espresso shot for this October is about one of the original 'Final Girls' and a lean mean chainsaw wielding machine. A word to the wise... if the library has no books, theres something wrong in the library. Also, don't give the hitchhiker your pocket knife. Also also, what the hell is up with movie villains dressing like women to portray being deranged? What is that all about? Hold that thought, I'm going to start another pot of coffee...
