Shameful Nature

Episode 3 of Season 2. A bit of talk about politics, cause hey, it's been a crazy week in that realm and not much going on in my life. Then onto the case of Mike DeBardeleben. A case about a man who just couldn't figure out which type of criminal he wanted to be. So he does them all.

It's Episode 1 of Season 2. I recap my recent camping trip, season finales you don't expect and then I dive into case finales you don't expect. The case of Minh Hong and Christopher Kinison is an interesting one where I didn't end up on the side I initially expected.

I talk about forgiving my parent's for not having a road map for parenting a gay son in the 80's, talk about skunks and other joys of owning dogs. Then I dive into a case that surprised me. For a man who has infiltrated our idea of notorious murderer, Ed Gein really didn't even qualify as a serial killer.
