Hey, true crime friends. This week I sat down with the host of the podcast of That Gay Ol' Classic Cinema, Christian Garcia, to discuss his case study on real female serial killers who used poison as their method of murder and how they parallel some familiar female fairytale villains.

In our News Update, I discuss the recent finding of a mass grave in Kenya that is suspected to be linked to a religious cult AND the investigation of Harvard University for claims that the school discriminates in its undergraduate admittance processes.
