Are you ready for extramarital affairs? Not for you personally, but are you ready for Dateline to give you extramarital affairs...like, in the double digits. In this episode Josh Mankiewicz leads us through a case with a big question mark attached to it. Was The Officer's Wife a conflicted woman who committed suicide, or did her cop husband murder her to hide his many, many secrets? Kimberly and Katie aren’t sure, but they are sure that this officer loved the ladies. And K & K love Sir Manky with his hankies, bringing his wit to interviews with a fashionista defense attorney and the number 3 side piece who is thrilled to be in that position, all whilst breaching the sacred bond between women and their hair dressers. Make sure your Verizon salesperson can hear you now, because it’s time to talk to YOUR jury. Please enjoy this very special recap of AN OFFICER’S WIFE! Note: This episode discusses suicide, so if that is triggering for you, you may want to skip this one. Have a friend listen instead so they can dish to you about about the affairs and other affairs. Official Description from NBCU: When police officer Levi Chavez finds his wife, Tera, shot to death in their home, an investigation into her murder begins as buried secrets are revealed.

If you could call a number and say you’re sorry, and no one would know…what would you apologize for? For fifteen years, you could call a number in Manhattan and do just that. This is the story of the line, and the man at the other end who became consumed by his own creation. He was known as “Mr. Apology.” As thousands of callers flooded the line, confessing to everything from shoplifting to infidelity, drug dealing to murder, Mr. Apology realized he couldn’t just listen. He had to do something, even if it meant risking everything. From Wondery the makers of Dr. Death and The Shrink Next Door, comes a story about empathy, deception and obsession. Marissa Bridge, who knew Mr. Apology better than anyone, hosts this six episode series.  Listen today at http://wondery.fm/DatewithDateline Learn more about your ad choices.

It’s 10 Minutes to Sunset... A time and a Dateline title which makes appears to make perfect sense and yet seemingly baffles Kimberly and Katie so soon into the new year. What they aren’t baffled by is the fact that three different people in three different interrogation rooms telling three very different stories makes for a magical Dateline viewing experience. (It also helps that that Mr. Magical himself, Keith Morrison, is reporting on the whole affair) Kimberly falls hard for the episode's MVP, Titan the bomb sniffing dog, and Katie’s heartfelt dream of seeing an interrogation room blanket three-peat has finally come to fruition! All that, plus a “cocaine cowgirl,” a spiffy dressing detective, and a jury verdict in 18 minutes? So whip up a hot batch of chocolate chip pancakes and settle in for 10 Minutes to Sunset. Official Description from NBCU: When pediatric dentist Kendra Hatcher is found dead in Dallas, Texas, police uncover a complex plot that leads them on an international manhunt.

It's a new year! 2021 is upon us and we are leaving the holidays and horrors of the previous year behind in a tight little box of emotions never to be opened. Speaking of tight little boxes... A COFFIN FOR CHRISTMAS is the famous Barbara Mackle case covered by ID Network's A Crime to Remember series and now will be retold (less eloquently) by K&K. Kimberly tries to overcome her intense fear of tight spaces (and being kidnapped, and heights, and breathing only through her nose and a few dozen others) and Katie gets waylaid by a yellow sweater that means absolutely nothing. And while as terrifying as the events in this case can seem, there is actually a silver lining to this story. Let's hope the same for 2021! Official Description from ID NETWORK: Barbara Mackle is kidnapped and buried alive in a coffin-like capsule; local police and the FBI race to Mackle's abductor before her time underground runs out.

In honor of last week's 200 ish episode we have dug deep into the ADWD archives to uncover the elusive lost recap to Dateline's explosive episode -Under the Prairie Sky. This was the second episode every released by K&K and it mysteriously disappeared sometime in 2018. Time does strange things to us, as we have learned in 2020, and hopefully this episode will not have aged as badly as Kimberly and Katie feel they have. Please enjoy the following vintage description as well! Can a victim's life truly be quantified by the items found in her abandoned car? Does Gary from Teen Mom have a secret identical twin who also loves women named Amber? Will Kimberly and Katie finally take an old west photograph to solidify their friendship? Will Josh Mankiewicz get beat down in a prison brawl? And is a guinea pig really just a fancy term for a regular old dusty prairie dog? Find the answer to all these life questions and more...in this week's very special episode of A Date with Dateline. Official Description from NBCU: In this Dateline classic, a mother of three mysteriously disappears. The only clue is her abandoned vehicle on a lonely Montana highway. Josh Mankiewicz reports.
