(12) F*ck Around and Find Out
Self-defense is an inalienable right that we have as humans. Some governments choose to limit how their people can defend themselves, but thankfully the US is not among those. This episode is proof of human resilience and courage.
**I recorded this on a very unpleasant day in my life. I am okay now. I think things are going to turn around. Keep me in your thoughts.**

Full Interview With Donnie - Former Acquaintence of Melissa Turner
Man, this was interesting. I initially didn't plan on covering anything that didn't end in the death penalty, but Donnie reached out to me and said he knew Melissa Turner before she murdered her boyfriend. So here you go. Here's the full interview. I cut names and stuff out where he requested, but other than that it is unedited. I hope you enjoy it. And for anyone who saw me on that one Third Railify stream, I didn't drink 12 Heinekens this time. Totally sober. ;)

(08) Melissa Turner
This one is completely different than anything I've done before. It's not a death penalty case. The perpetrator didn't even get a life sentence. Thanks to my friend Donnie, I got some insight into the world of horror movies, cosplay, and a psychopath he went to school with. This is the story of Melissa Turner and her fall from grace into a prison cell. The full interview can be found on Rumble.

Today we're taking a trip to the land of legal weed, tent cities, and vast wilderness. No, not California. The other one. The Centennial State. The history of the death penalty here is pretty all over the place, as it is in most states who have abolished it. This episode has a little bit of everything, including a female murderer.

This state is well known for a lot of things, and serial killers are one of them. Today I'll be talking about two lesser-known serial killers from the Golden State, as well as a man who is "infamous" in some circles.

(05) Arkansas
On this episode, we venture out east to the Natural State. All I really knew about Arkansas was that Wal-Mart originated there, but in doing my research for this one I learned that quite a bit of debauchery goes on as well. And apparently a lot of people travel there from other parts of the US. Didn't see that one coming at all.

This is a totally new thing we're doing today. All about women who have gotten the death penalty. And no, I didn't just go for Aileen Wuornos. She's been done to death, no pun intended. This one is pretty interesting, so buckle up!
