    The Boy Who Didn't Eat Meat - "Outbreak"

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when the thing making people sick isn’t hiding in the water, the air, or some mysterious chemical… but in their dinner? This week, Danielle and Drew are covering the Forensic Files episode “Outbreak,” which follows a terrifying foodborne illness outbreak in the Pacific Northwest. As people began getting violently sick, investigators had to work backward to find the connection between seemingly unrelated cases and eventually trace the outbreak to contaminated ground beef. We’re breaking down how investigators identified the source, the science behind the outbreak, what had to go wrong for contaminated meat to reach consumers, and what changed afterward to help prevent something like this from happening again. Danielle brings the research and everything Forensic Files couldn’t fit into 22 minutes, while Drew brings the commentary, questions, and a few reasons you may never look at a hamburger quite the same way again. Because sometimes the most terrifying Forensic Files episodes don’t involve a murderer at all.

    Cameras & Chaos Ep3 - SUMMER HOUSE

    Send us Fan Mail We needed a break from murder… so we turned to reality TV.  Cameras & Chaos — a new mini series from The Forensic Files Duo. Between our main true crime episodes, Drew is taking over the mic to teach Danielle everything she somehow missed in the absolutely unhinged world of reality TV drama, scandals, lawsuits, cheating, and yes… even the occasional handcuffs. Think of it as a Case Break — still chaotic, still investigative, just with a lot more Housewives and a lot less homicide. Because sometimes even true crime lovers need a little chaos instead of crime. This week on Cameras & Chaos, Danielle finally dives into Summer House, and Drew is ready to unpack the Hamptons' biggest mess yet. From the fallout after West and Amanda's hookup and the betrayal that's rocked the friend group to Ciara's reaction and Kyle trying to pick up the pieces, no one's escaping the drama. Plus, Drew answers Danielle's biggest newbie questions—from how this cast landed the show and whether they actually spend the whole summer together to why Summer House continues to be one of Bravo's most addictive series. Expect hot takes, behind-the-scenes reality TV insight, and plenty of laughs as they break down all the chaos. Interested in starting your own podcast? Record using RIVERSIDE.

    Jenna's Ep - "Low Maintenance"

    Send us Fan Mail When 20-year-old college student Jenna Verhaalen is found dead in her Texas apartment, investigators are faced with a puzzling case. With no obvious signs of forced entry and several potential suspects in the spotlight—including her boyfriend, a neighbor, and an apartment maintenance worker—the search for the truth becomes a forensic nightmare. In this episode, Danielle and Drew break down the forensic evidence that ultimately exposed the killer, including DNA recovered from beneath Jenna's fingernails and a trail of clues hidden in plain sight. We discuss the investigation's twists and turns, the suspects who nearly took the fall, and how modern forensic science helped deliver justice for Jenna and her family. Join us as we unpack Forensic Files Season 14, Episode 13, "Low Maintenance"—a case that proves even the smallest piece of evidence can speak volumes.

    Sandra, Betty & Jane Does Ep - "Insect Clues"

    Send us Fan Mail We dive into the chilling Episode “Insect Clues,” recapping the groundbreaking case that helped put forensic entomology on the map. In 1988, the body of 29-year-old Sandra Cwik was discovered in a remote area outside San Diego, California. With little physical evidence and few leads, investigators turned to an unusual source for answers: insects. What followed would become one of the earliest high-profile murder cases solved using forensic entomology, ultimately leading detectives to serial killer Ronald Elliot Porter. At the end of the episode, we spotlight the tragic case of Emily Pike, a 14-year-old Indigenous girl whose murder sparked national outrage and renewed conversations surrounding the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls crisis. Listener discretion is strongly advised. Sources: YouTube | Forensics Files | Ap News The Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People (MMIWP) Toolkit Interested in starting your own podcast?

    Rebecca, Fred & Kenneth's Episode - "Fate Date" AKA The Toothless-Mini-Peen Killer

    Send us Fan Mail They’re baaaack! After a long hiatus filled with caffeine, musicals, kids, and chaos, Danielle and Drew are back in the studio — and kicking off Season 2 with one of Forensic Files’ darkest episodes: “Fate Date.” This case takes us to Tulsa, Oklahoma, 2004, where a seemingly ordinary night of online dating turned into a deadly setup. When Rebecca Barney invites her new internet acquaintance James “Jimmy” Kidwell over, tragedy strikes — leaving three people dead, a house in flames, and investigators unraveling a digital trail of deceit. But that’s not all… We’ve got a major announcement — a brand-new bonus series called Cameras & Chaos where Drew flips the script and takes Danielle deep into the world of reality TV drama (and maybe a some reality-TV True Crime).
