  1. The Menendez Brothers

    6 DAYS AGO

    The Menendez Brothers

    Spoiler (for your wellbeing): This episode includes mention of sexual assault. It is not detailed or graphic, but if that is a topic you don't want to engage with, skip this one. Kayla and Liz are back at it with The Menendez Brothers on Netflix this week. This case is a heavy one, but they dig in to the main points of the case before contemplating how they hope things would be different if this case were in 2025 instead of 1989. Also, they realize how weird and gross the media was in t...

    Sweet Bobby: My Catfish Nightmare

    Kayla and Liz take a break from murder to discuss the Netflix documentary, Sweet Bobby: My Catfish Nightmare. Catfishing cases are Liz's contemporary true crime fascination. They cover it all: Why do people catfish? How do people get away with catfishing for so long? Is catfishing a crime? Who is the victim? Do these people have jobs? Can you graduate from witness protection? What's the time difference between London and New York? Feedback? Comments? Email us at kaylizpod@gmail.com. Foll...

  3. Catching Killers - BTK

    JAN 24

    Catching Killers - BTK

    This week, Kayla and Liz follow the investigation of the BTK killer from the Netflix show, Catching Killers. BTK is one of the first true crime stories Kayla remembers being interested in. Catching Killers focuses on the process of investigation, not on the crime, criminals, or victims. It's the procedural side of true crime and gives a different perspective to the case. Because of how BTK was caught, Kayla and Liz also end up wondering where their cells are and if they agreed to them being t...

  4. Unsolved Mysteries - Body in the Basement

    Unsolved Mysteries - Body in the Basement

    Kayla and Liz are back for season 2! There is no GBBS to watch, so they are in the "assault" realm of Assault & Bakery. This season starts with an episode of Unsolved Mysteries, a show from Liz's childhood that contributed to her true crime love in adulthood. Not to ruin it for you, but they do not solve the mystery of Amanda Antoni's death during the episode, but the details of this case are curious and haunting. Kayla and Liz also ponder how one could move through life not thinking the ...

    GBBS - Series 15 - Recap

    Kayla and Liz wrap up their Series 15 coverage with a look back at things they said earlier in the season. What did they get wrong? What did they get right?

    GBBS - Series 15 - Finale

    We have a winner! It was a bit tense, but ultimately a satisfying outcome. Kayla and Liz talk about the bakes (as always), prior finales and champions, and try to drum up some sponsorships from local businesses.

  7. GBBS - Series 15 - Patisserie Week

    11/28/2024

    GBBS - Series 15 - Patisserie Week

    The Patisserie Week Semi-Final was a close one! The remaining bakers are so talented and so evenly matched. Kayla and Liz endured (and maybe almost enjoyed?) the stressful episode and make their final picks of the season!

  8. GBBS - Series 15 - 70s Week

    11/21/2024

    GBBS - Series 15 - 70s Week

    1970s Week was groovy! The lowdown on this episode is that it was full of delicious sounding retro bakes that looked hideous. There was no Jello. Kayla and Liz recap the episode, judge the judges a bit, and try to read the Instagram tea leaves to figure out who has won.
