    REWIND: Cradle of Lies

    In 1995, Annette Williams claimed she was pregnant. There was just one problem - she wasn't. As the months passed and her lie unraveled, she and her boyfriend, Fedell Caffey, made a horrifying decision. They would take someone else's baby. Their victim was 28-year-old Debra Evans, who was nine months pregnant. The brutal attack that followed left three people dead and a newborn fighting for survival after being cut from his mother's womb. Join Wendy and Beth for this rewind episode from 2023 as they examine one of the most shocking and heartbreaking cases of fetal abduction in US history, a crime fueled by lies, obsession, and unimaginable violence. This episode was researched & scripted by Wendy & Beth Williams and edited by Minnie Williams. Thanks for listening! Until next time... look alive y’all, it's crazy out there!

    REWIND: Love and Blood in the Sertão 

    Before there was Bonnie and Clyde, Brazil had Maria Bonita and Lampião. Known as the King and Queen of the Cangaço, they led a notorious band of outlaws across Brazil’s rugged northeast during the 1920s and 1930s. To some, they were ruthless criminals. To others, they were folk heroes who challenged the powerful and became legends. In this rewind episode from 2023, we explore the love story, violence, myths, and bloody end of the couple who became Brazil’s most famous outlaws. This episode was researched & scripted by Wendy & Beth Williams and edited by Minnie & Beth Williams. Thanks for listening!

    FRUITLOOPS REVIEWS: Knock Down the House

    Back in March 2025, in honor of Women's History Month, Wendy & Beth gathered for Video Club to discuss the documentary Knock Down the House. The film follows four women from very different backgrounds - a Bronx bartender, a coal miner's daughter from West Virginia, a grieving mother in Nevada, and a nurse in Missouri - as they launch grassroots campaigns to challenge powerful, long-established members of Congress. Through determination, community organizing, and a willingness to take on the political establishment, they fight for a chance to bring new voices to Washington. Their journeys culminate in one of the most surprising political upsets in recent American history. Music “Intranet” by Yung Kartz. https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Yung_Kartz.

    The Cincinnati Strangler

    Between December 1965 and December 9, 1966, fear gripped Cincinnati as a killer stalked the city’s streets, leaving seven women dead. As panic spread and pressure mounted, investigators focused on local resident Posteal Laskey Jr., who was arrested on December 9, 1966, for one of the murders and later convicted. Though never charged in the other six deaths, police and the media quickly linked them all to him. This episode was researched & scripted by Wendy & Beth Williams and edited by Minnie Williams.
