Episode 8.2: The Witches of Marquette Park, Part 2
Deadly family secrets, uncontrollable urges, and an insatiable need to scratch that lethal itch. We’ve all felt it, whether we like to admit it or not. The world is about to witness firsthand how destructively intoxicating true crime can be.
Crowds swarm outside Murder, We Spoke’s studio as they record their final episode with Something Fishy. They want more blood, more death, more Murder, We Spoke.
Meanwhile, AJ and Bailey find themselves between an arsonist and her lighter. Cres always said, that if anyone was going to destroy the studio, it would be her, on her terms. This is it – Murder, We Spoke’s last chance to go down in history (or up in flames) as the most infamous true crime podcast streaming today.
