Killer Fun Crime and Entertainment

Christy Norman
229 episodes   Last Updated: Jun 19, 25
Killer Fun explores the intersection of crime and entertainment. A couple times a month we watch a television show, movie, read a book, play a game or delve into other forms of entertainment that involve crime - both real and fictional. Join Christy and Jackie for some well-researched facts - and laughs - every episode. We don’t LIKE crime, but we are fascinated by it. Christy is a super-sleuth when it comes to internet research and Jackie has a Master's degree in Psychology from Harvard.Email us: KillerFunPodcast@gmail.comFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KillerFunPodcast/All the Tweets: http://twitter.com/KillerFunPodInstagram: killerfunpodcast

Episodes

Situations are often more complicated than they first appear. This is SO true in how the story is laid out in The Better Sister. The situations get more context as the story plays out, and EVERYTHING is more complicated that it seems and we dig into it. Email us: KillerFunPodcast@gmail.comFollow us on Facebook: fb.me/KillerFunPodcastAll the Tweets, er, POSTS: https://x.com/KillerFunPodInstagram: killerfunpodcast
We get to visit the world of Joe Goldberg one last time. The final season of YOU is out and from literacy and to love addiction, there is so much to chat about. We are so glad Joe is fictional, but that won’t stop us from missing this character.Email us: KillerFunPodcast@gmail.comFollow us on Facebook: fb.me/KillerFunPodcastAll the Tweets, er, POSTS: https://x.com/KillerFunPodInstagram: killerfunpodcast

It turns out that an actual prison escape takes a lot of time, a lot of planning, help, and at least a little luck. Escape at Dannemora looks at a 2015 prison break and where people and systemic flaws were exploited and we talk about what’s real, what’s not, and the psychology behind it all.Email us: KillerFunPodcast@gmail.comFollow us on Facebook: fb.me/KillerFunPodcastAll the Tweets, er, POSTS: https://x.com/KillerFunPodInstagram: killerfunpodcast
Mindfulness should bring about a sense of balance to one’s life. If you’re Bjorn in Murder Mindfully, that might also involve… homicide.

Maple syrup, a corrupt Association, and a message in tree form - what more could we ask of The Sticky?

Con artists come in all shapes. We usually think of slick middle aged men, but even young single moms can weave a compelling story that gets buy-in by people and companies.
