Welcome to "Cookies and Crime," the delectably intriguing true crime podcast where each episode invites you to indulge in two captivating worlds: gripping tales of real-life crimes and the art of creating exquisite, edible masterpieces. Who knew this would be the combo you needed? I'm your host, Karen Thi, a passionate connoisseur of both intriguing mysteries and the fine art of cookie decoration.
Once a short-form series that started on TikTok and made its way to YouTube, "Cookies & Crime" is now a podcast! It's loved for it's quirky fresh take on true crime edutainment and, of course, my soothing voice.
In each episode, "Cookies and Crime" serves up a blend of riveting true crime stories and freshly baked cookies. Join me as we delve into the darkest corners of human nature and research the psychology of "why would they do this?", uncovering the secrets behind infamous crimes that have left the world spellbound.
But that's not all – as an added twist, "Cookies and Crime" embraces the mysterious and the supernatural. Periodically, I'll veer into the realm of the paranormal, sharing chilling tales that defy explanation and leave us questioning the boundaries of our reality. Ghostly encounters, haunted houses, and unexplained phenomena will all find their place on this captivating podcast. Don't forget to send in your own paranormal or even true crime stories that I'll share during listener story episodes!
As I immerse you in tales of crime and mystery, I'll be lightening the mood by munching down on some sweets, whether they be my own recipes I share with you or reviewing cookies from other folks. You'll feel like you're right there with me in the kitchen, surrounded by the delightful aroma of freshly baked treats, as we explore the darkest recesses of the human psyche.
Whether you're a true crime enthusiast, a lover of the supernatural, or simply enjoy the art of cookies, "Cookies and Crime" offers an enticing blend of captivating storytelling and culinary delight. So grab a cup of tea or coffee, treat yourself to a scrumptious cookie, and prepare to be both entertained and mystified.

Customer Reviews
Love love <3
I absolutely love this podcast, I started watching you on TikTok and iv liked it from the start, i only have one small opinion that might not matter but i still want to share, my opinion is that instead of all the dialogue in between talking about the case, you could talk all the wag about the case and save your opinions and feelings and all that for the end. I do really love this podcast, no matter what thi lol. Amazing emotion while speaking about the victims and the case it makes for a great podcast ❤️❤️❤️
Sweet & Chilling
Stories discussed in a perfect manner - with some sweet kicks through out. Super unique and I believe underrated. Relaxing, informational, and most definitely bone-chilling. Great perspective and added depth, excellent execution! Thank you! Definitely recommend this podcast.
I LOVE this
This is one of the best true crime/paranormal podcasts I LOVE IT
