Believe Me: The Abduction of Lisa McVey (Part 1)

Molly and Kate are back to walk through Lifetime’s 2018 “Believe Me: The Abduction of Lisa McVey.” This little flick explores the true story of badass heroine Lisa McVey, who, at 17-years-old, outwitted her abductor to save herself and regain control of her life. Not only that, her instinct and bravery helped to solve multiple ongoing murder investigations in Tampa, Florida in the 1980s. Be sure to join us for our next episode where we take a deep dive into the real Life Behind the ‘Times!

The Suitcase Killer (Part 2)

Molly and Kate are back for more Melanie McGuire, the life behind the Lifetime movie, "Suitcase Killer: The Melanie McGuire Story." The ladies dive into the evidence, Melanie's questionable timeline, and speculate on a possible accomplice. This case has so many moving parts, it's impossible to get into the real nitty-gritty, but M and K cover some ground. Spoiler alert: answers are few and far between. What we can agree on is that Melanie is guilty...but of what, exactly? Let us know what you think!

The Suitcase Killer (Part 1)

Jailbreak Lovers (The Toby Dorr Story)

Molly and Kate discuss "the incident," a.k.a. the time Toby Dorr (formerly, Young) helped to break her young lover and convicted felony murderer out of prison in a dog crate. This is the crime on which Lifetime's 2022 movie, "Jailbreak Lovers" is based. Kate has very mixed feelings about the movie: is it funny; is it boring; both? And the ladies have some differing opinions on Toby herself. Whatever your opinion, we can all agree that mid-life crises are real; and sometimes, the idea of filing for divorce is more difficult than living life as a fugitive for helping your incarcerated lover escape a life sentence.

The Murder of Shanda Sharer

This month, Molly and Kate examine the horrific crime against Shanda Sharer, the twelve-year-old whose story inspired Law & Order SVU Season 5, Episode 17, “Mean.” The SVU episode pales in comparison to real life on this one—and thank goodness it does. Shanda’s heartbreaking story is not only an example of the worst that can happen as a result of jealousy and bullying between teens; but also of the damage that may occur in those who have experienced their own personal or familial turmoil.

Nicholas Barclay/Frédéric Bourdin

How does a dark-haired twenty-something Frenchman find himself halfway around the world and living the life of a missing Texas teenager? It's a doozy. After chatting about SVU episode "Stranger" for MMISWP, Molls and Kate take a deeper dive into the story of Frederic Bourdain and the disappearance of Nicholas Barclay. They also get a little off-topic and touch on adoption; how Molly's Catholic guilt once caused her to mistake bed bugs for contracting HIV; and ear science conspiracies. There are still so many questions surrounding Nicholas's life and disappearance, so join us as we talk our way through finding absolutely no answers!

David Reimer

This week, Molly and Kate discuss David Reimer, whose story partly inspired the Season 6, Episode 12 SVU episode “Identity,” which Molly and friend, Alayna Hillard, covered back in August. David was born “Bruce,” an identical twin to brother Brian. Following a tragic accident during a routine circumcision procedure in David’s infancy, he was raised as female, all the while feeling at odds with his body. Despite David’s ongoing struggles, both children would become the “success” story of Dr. John Money and his theory of infant gender neutrality. The ladies discuss David’s early childhood, his recognition of his biological sex around the age of 14, and how his atypical history affected him and those around him, through to his adulthood.

Strip Search Phone Scam

This episode is no pillow fight in the park! Molly and Kate discuss Law & Order SVU Season 9, episode 17, “Authority,” and the real story behind why Pete from 30 Rock is found strip-searching a fast-food employee in the back room. This fan-favorite episode (at least, one of Kate’s faves) guest-stars Robin Williams as a sly-talking engineer, who is hell-bent on challenging authority. And of course, there are some Mrs. Doubtfire-esque voices involved! The ladies also consider the 2012 very good, but hard-to-watch film, “Compliance,” based on the same crime, in which Molly’s real-life, not creepy friend plays the creep who made scam calls to restaurant managers throughout the United States. They examine the psychological background of obedience through the lens of the 1960’s Milgram Experiments, and the survivor/heroine of the Mt. Washington Phone Scam.

Celeste Beard, Part 2

“I don’t think anyone in the seventies in Arizona was withholding keys from a regular drunk person.” Molls and Kate just couldn’t get enough of Celeste Beard and are back to talk more about the murderous mastermind/perpetual victim. In doing so, they have to tackle some tough questions, such as, “are you a ‘cool mom’ if you get wasted while chaperoning your child’s overnight field trips?” They also work through some points of Beard’s Texas appeal and Kate proves she will never be a professor as she attempts to describe basic legal concepts (which she has not studied since taking the bar exam). Last, but not least, the ladies LOL at some more Amazon reviews for “From the Big House to Your House,” co-authored by our girl. What do you think? Is there anything to the theory that OG Nacho Expert Katie left a review for the prison tuna nachos?

Celeste Beard, Part 1

Prep your prison cookbook snacks, because this month, Molls and Kate take a deep dive into the extreme narcissistic tendencies of Celeste Beard-Johnson, the server-turned-socialite who *definitely did not* plan the 1999 murder of her wealthy, older husband, Steven Beard. How could she, when she was only ever “taking in strays” and devoting every waking moment to being the best mother she could possibly be? Inspired by Lifetime’s “Secrets of a Gold Digger Killer” (and MMISWP Season 8, episode 7, featuring Roberta Blevins), Molls & Kate hold nothing back as they discuss Celeste’s lifelong pattern of manipulation when it comes to men, friends, and even her children.
