    Episode 44: Lizzie Borden

    Lizzie Borden took an axe, and gave her mother 40 whacks. When she saw what she had done, she gave her father 41...or did she? Spooky season is officially here, buds! And we’re kicking it off with one of the most infamous unsolved mysteries in American true crime: Lizzie Borden. In 1892, Andrew and Abby Borden were brutally murdered inside their Fall River home. Lizzie was accused, arrested, and put on trial—but despite a mountain of suspicious circumstances, the evidence was ultimately deemed circumstantial, and she was found not guilty. So… if Lizzie didn’t do it, who did? And if she did… how did she get away with it? 👀 Sam & Briana break down the family drama, the suspicious timeline, the missing murder weapon, the infamous dress-burning incident, the courtroom evidence, and the mystery that has kept people debating Lizzie’s guilt for more than 130 years. Briana's Bud: Polar Dusk Would you have found Lizzie guilty? Tell us what you think. 👇 #KushAndCrime #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #LizzieBorden #CrimePodcast #SpookySeason #UnsolvedMystery #MurderMystery #TrueCrimeCommunity #Potcast

    Episode 43: Pazuzu Algarad

    A house filled with blood, drugs, rumors of murder… and human remains buried in the backyard. This week on Kush & Crime, Sam and Briana dive into the disturbing story of Pazuzu Algarad, a self proclaimed Satanist whose filthy North Carolina home became the center of drugs, animal sacrifices, violence, manipulation, and ultimately murder. Before the bodies were found, police received multiple reports about possible killings at Pazuzu’s home, including warnings about bodies allegedly being buried in the backyard. Yet years would pass before investigators finally uncovered the remains of Tommy Welch and Josh Wetzel. We break down Pazuzu’s disturbing history, the people who became part of his inner circle, the warning signs that were repeatedly reported to authorities, and the investigation that eventually exposed what had been happening inside the infamous house. We also discuss the murder of Joseph Chandler, Pazuzu’s role in encouraging others to commit violence, and what happened to the people involved after the truth finally came to light. But before things get dark, we're talking Super Boof for this episode’s strain of the day — including its purple, crystal covered appearance, sweet cherry aroma, disappointing dusty breakup, and a name that leads Sam and Briana into one seriously questionable conversation... Light up, settle in, and join us for another wild trip into true crime. Stay safe, stay lifted, buds. #KushAndCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #PazuzuAlgarad #TrueCrime #CrimePodcast #CannabisPodcast #SuperBoof #Potcast

    Episode 42: Molly Bish

    This week on Kush & Crime, we’re heading back to New England to talk about the heartbreaking disappearance and murder of 16 year old Molly Bish. Molly was a beloved daughter, sister, friend, athlete, and lifeguard who disappeared from Comins Pond in Warren, Massachusetts, in June 2000. Her belongings were left behind exactly where she had set them down, but Molly was nowhere to be found. What followed was a massive search, years of unanswered questions, multiple persons of interest, frustrating investigative twists, and a family that refused to let Molly’s story disappear. We’re breaking down the suspicious white car, the infamous sketch, the discovery of Molly’s remains three years later, the suspects who came and went, and the developments that have kept this case alive more than two decades later. And of course, we’ve got Briana’s Buds 🌿🍌 featuring Tropicana Banana and a whole lot of questionable commentary about hydration, porcupines, and Kronk. 🎙️ Listen now wherever you get your podcasts. If you know anything about Molly Bish’s disappearance, even something you think might be insignificant, please come forward and call 508-453-7575. 🖤 Remember Molly. Keep her story alive.

    Episode 41: Shannan Watts

    In this weeks episode of Kush & Crime, Sam and Briana discuss the shocking Chris Watts case, one of the most notorious true crime cases involving a family annihilator in modern American criminal history. The episode begins with another Briana’s Bud Breakdown, where Briana revisits the Strawberries & Cream cannabis strain and gives her honest review of the flavor, appearance, effects, price, and—most importantly—how much of a pain in the ass it is to break up. Then we dive into the Watts family murders. Sam walks Briana through the relationship between Chris Watts and Shanann Watts, their marriage, their two daughters Bella and Celeste, Shanann's pregnancy, and the warning signs that something was seriously wrong behind the couple's seemingly perfect social media presence. We discuss Shanann's growing suspicions, Chris Watts' affair with Nichol Kessinger, Shanann's disappearance, the police investigation, Chris Watts' infamous television interview, his failed polygraph test, and the interrogation that ultimately led to his confession. The case takes an especially heartbreaking turn as we discuss what happened to Shanann, her unborn son, and her two young daughters—and how Chris Watts initially attempted to blame Shanann for the deaths of their children. Sam and Briana also discuss the disturbing concept of family annihilators and the comparisons people have made between the Chris Watts case and the Lindsay Clancy case, while separating confirmed facts from allegations and speculation. If you're interested in true crime, criminal psychology, murder cases, family annihilation, Chris Watts, Shanann Watts, true crime podcasts, and infamous criminal cases, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Grab your buds, settle in, and join us for another episode of Kush & Crime. Stay safe and stay lifted

    Episode 40: Shelby Perkins

    A fatal overdose. A boyfriend with a rap sheet. And a 911 call that sounds wrong from the very first seconds. If you care about true crime cases where the story keeps changing, this Shelby Perkins episode will pull you in fast. Sam and Briana unpack the heartbreaking case of Shelby Perkins, a young woman from Wisconsin whose death led investigators into a web of heroin use, shifting timelines, and a boyfriend named Mitch whose version of events keeps collapsing under pressure. The conversation gets even more powerful because Shelby's sister Audrey reached out personally to have her story told, and her perspective shapes the entire episode. Sam and Briana don't just walk through the evidence—they challenge the details in real time, question the inconsistencies, and call out the moments that feel impossible to ignore. Along the way, they also break down the dangers of addiction, the signs of a manipulated story, and why proper CPR knowledge can matter in the worst possible moment. This is a devastating, detail-heavy case for listeners who want more than a surface-level recap. If you want a true crime episode with real emotional weight, a personal family connection, and a case that keeps getting more disturbing the deeper it goes, this one belongs in your queue.

But before we get into the case, we're lighting up Black Sundae for our Strain of the Day 🍃🔥 — and yes, the bud comes in an actual glass coffee mug.
