    Can’t Buy Me Love + The Pied Piper of Tucson = Can’t Buy Me Teens Willing to Talk

    Can’t Buy Me Love + The Pied Piper of Tucson = Can’t Buy Me Teens Willing to Talk

    In this weeks episode the pod heads to Tucson, AZ to talk about yummy Patrick Dempsey and shitty Charles Schmid.
    Can’t Buy Me Love is an 80’s teenage Rom Com about a nerd named Ronald (Patrick Dempsey) who comes to the rescue of popular neighbor Cindy (Amanda Peterson) with a little quid pro quo… He’ll help her out of a pickle if she agrees to pretend to be his girlfriend for one month. With a killer soundtrack and sizzling chemistry we think this is deserving of a rewatch.
    Then Averyn continues with a tale of Tucson teens who were so beguiled by charming, strange, tin cans in his boots wearing Charles “Smitty” Schmid, that even after three teenage girls went missing and Shitty Smitty bragged about killing them no one said a word.

The show begins after her sisters death and follows Sam’s (Bridgett Everett) journey through grief as she relearns how to make connections and finds her voice again.

    Then Averyn tells the true story of Ali Kemp. Ali Kemp was a 19 year old Kansas State University student who was killed while working her summer job at the local Leawood community pool.

This shocking crime shook this community to its core. But the determination of Ali’s father, Roger Kemp, ultimately led police to her killer.

A Wild Ride

I loved the back and forth of the different genres of comedy and true crime. This podcast keeps me entertained when I need a laugh but also informs with the true crime stories. Keep them coming ladies!
