Announcement: Studio Sessions, Javier, Leiva, and Bali!

Part 1:
A few weeks ago, the team received about 500 new documents in the Keyes case. Josh is here to chat about them, where they're taking us, and what season 7 is starting to look like.

Part 2:
Hi, this is Josh. And until today, I knew essentially nothing about Karen Read, her trials, the evidence, the news. After hearing a few interesting tidbits over the weekend, I decided to peek in and see what everyone's been talking about. So, today, I watched all five parts of the (stupidly named) HBO docuseries A Body in the Snow: The Karen Read Trial. And I recorded my thoughts just for you, between each episode.

Potential Keyes Victims: The Northeast

When a young girl goes missing under mysterious circumstances, a man claiming to be her father quickly becomes the prime suspect in her disappearance. Lies, theft, strange behavior, and murky relationships coalesce with a suicide in a National Park and more questions than answers. A look into why this case ended up on Israel Keyes's computer highlights a suspicious trip, a weird time in his life, and a missing person's case Josh just can't shake.
