Smile - Timothy and Alyssa Bradburn

Timothy Bradburn had just returned to his Spokane home from a trip to Hawaii, keys and suitcase still in hand, when he was met with a lethal ambush. The shooter wasn't a stranger, but his 33-year-old daughter, Alyssa, who had spent weeks practicing at a gun range and journaling about her plan to kill him. In a case that moved from a claim of self-defense to a blunt courtroom confession, the Pacific Northwest was left searching for a motive that never came. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

The Barbarian Queen - Lana Clarkson

Lana Clarkson was a woman of "big dreams and new shoes." A cult-cinema icon known to fans as the Barbarian Queen, Lana was a fixture of the 1980s Los Angeles scene, appearing in everything from Scarface to Three’s Company. At forty years old, she wasn’t a woman in despair; she was a woman in transition, working as a hostess at the House of Blues to fund her own independent production, Lana Unleashed. She was a daughter and a friend who, on her final day of life, was still shopping for the future. Enter reclusive and volatile music producer Phil Spector, a man accused by many of having "demonic" tendencies when mixing alcohol and firearms. Jamie and John center today's story on Lana’s vibrant life and the chilling circumstances of its end. We examine the early morning of February 3, 2003, when Lana was murdered in cold blood. We look at the evidence that painted a picture of a woman who was held captive in a "Pyrenees Castle" she never intended to stay in, and the brave testimony of the women who came before her to reveal Spector’s long-standing pattern of violence. This is an episode dedicated to reclaiming Lana’s memory from the shadow of her killer’s fame and ensuring she is remembered as the hero of her own story. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Jupiter Island - Tiger Woods

On Friday, March 27, 2026, just four miles from his home on Jupiter Island, Florida, the golf world stood still once again. 15-time major champion Tiger Woods was involved in a high-speed rollover crash involving a Land Rover and a pressure-cleaning truck. While Woods walked away from the wreckage uninjured, the legal aftermath began almost immediately. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Cyanide - Michael Marin

This is a story that feels like a Greek tragedy set in a Maricopa County courtroom. Michael Marin was a man who lived his life at the highest possible altitude, both literally and financially, and it seems he simply could not reconcile a reality where he was grounded by a prison cell. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Are You With Me? - Eric and Kouri Richins

In the quiet mountain town of Kamas, Utah, Kouri Richins was seen as a pillar of strength. After her husband Eric died suddenly in 2022, she wrote a children’s book to help their three sons navigate grief. But while she was promoting "Are You With Me?" on national television, investigators were uncovering a $3.1 million debt, a secret iPhone, and a search history that included "luxury prisons for the rich." In this episode of True Crimecast, John and Jamie walk through the trial that captivated the nation in 2025/26. Big thank you to our friend Jules, co-founder of Fire Eyes Media, Investigative Podcaster & Producer & soon to be Private Investigator, for lending us her voice today.

Innocent Until Proven Dirtbag - Mary Carole McDonnell

Mary Carole McDonnell was the CEO of a successful Burbank production company, behind true crime hits like I Married a Murderer. But behind the scenes, the company was hemorrhaging cash. To keep the lights on and the payroll moving, the 73-year-old allegedly stepped into a role of her own making: the secret heir to the McDonnell Aircraft fortune. In this episode of True Crime To Go, John and Jamie break down the brazen 2017–2018 fraud scheme that allegedly siphoned nearly $30 million from financial institutions. We detail how she used a non-existent $80 million trust fund to bait banks, the federal indictment that followed in 2018, and her current status on the FBI’s Most Wanted list. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Cornhole, Capability, and Crime - Bradrick Michael Wells and Dayton Webber

Dayton Webber was a household name in the world of professional cornhole. A quadruple amputee who overcame a life-threatening infection as an infant, he became an ESPN-featured athlete and a symbol of "no excuses" perseverance. But on the night of March 22, 2026, a different story began to emerge in the charging documents of Charles County, Maryland. In this breaking news episode of True Crimecast, John and Jamie discuss the arrest of the 27-year-old athlete following the shooting death of his friend, Bradrick Michael Wells. We walk through the harrowing timeline: an argument in a moving Tesla, two witnesses in the backseat, a body left in a Charlotte Hall yard, and a 100-mile flight to Virginia. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

I’ve been listening for a few years now after first hearing yall on Talk Is Jericho, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I usually put it on while I’m gaming or driving, and it always makes the time fly by. I’ll definitely be subscribing to Patreon soon to support y’all. Was wondering if yall ever covered the disappearance of Jason Landry—I’m from the college town where he went to school, and there’s been some talk about new evidence. Hopefully it’s true so his family can get some answers. Keep doing what you’re doing—the show just keeps getting better!
Buford at Pusser

Big fan of the podcast I listen to you guys at work. I want to talk about the Buford T Pusser episode. I feel like the time and money spent on these cases should be spent on solving current cases. I know older cases deserve to be reviewed. Am I wrong for thinking this. Plus I from Nebraska do you have any Nebraska cases in the works
Love listening from the Sunflower State

I’ve been listening for years and don’t know why it took so long to leave a review! I really appreciate the respectful way that stories and cases are shared and would love to see you guys cover the unsolved murder of Tawnya Dawn Knight from our small rural town of Spring Hill, Kansas, with the same reverence I’ve heard you honor other victims.
