A Date With Dateline

This Double Date features another brain melting episode of Blood Relatives from ID where the symbols are many, the narration is fantastic and in this case, sadly, the murder is gruesome and unfair. So seemingly to make up for the dark edge of the actual murder, our creature of the week is a goldfish! But if you think that is our only creature of the week then you need to catch up on the other recaps of this allegorical ID series! Kimberly and Katie step through the details of the case and the hidden symbolism which isn't that hidden. Spoiler* There is ANOTHER mysterious doll at the crime scene. What does it all mean? Is this the episode where it all connects? Well, grab your train conductor’s hat because it’s time for DUCT TAPE DIVORCE! Choooo chooo! ID NETWORK Series: Blood Relatives Season 3, episode 8- Duct Tape Divorce Official Description from ID NETWORK: One member of a Colorado family threatens to break their bond.

The events of April 20th, 1999 shaped our nation and altered the American narrative. One of America’s deadliest school shootings took place in a small town in Colorado, leaving thirteen dead and another twenty-one severely injured. And it was all broadcast over national tv for the nation to see. The second season of Confronting takes on one of the most prolific tragedies in American history: the Columbine High School massacre. It was a devastating example of how easily a place of learning, familiarity and peace can descend into a war zone of chaos in a moment, the teenagers present that day are now adults who bear the mental and physical scars of the carnage they lived through. Amy Over, a Columbine survivor who is still living with its aftermath and raising her own children in its shadow, confronts many of the realities, questions and myths that surround the massacre to this day. Amy, through her own experience and by speaking with survivors, investigators, classmates, reporters on the scene and other important voices, brings a first-person account of the physical, emotional and spiritual journey that comes along with confronting the worst day of her life.  Listen Here: wondery.fm/CC DateWithDateline Learn more about your ad choices.

You might think Natalie Morales was going to slide on into the true crime world of beloved Dateline hosts with a quiet, run of the mill normal murder story. You would be wrong. This episode is WOW, filled with OMG moments and a very diabolical twist. And with every complicated Dateline case Kimberly and Katie have some serious questions. Can Law give us a call? Actually if Order could also call in, that would be great as we have a few issues to clear up with you as well. Science, you get to take the week off. So crack open a cold coke and join K & K for their extreme amounts of disbelief and outrage, and to hear Kimberly use her new favorite word way too many times. It's time for THE (titular) PHONE CALL! Official Description from NBCU: When Kathleen Schroll makes a phone call that names her killer right before her death, it leads to the arrest of a father for murder, but after two trials and 12 years, authorities begin to wonder if he was the victim. Natalie Morales reports. Support ADWD by checking out these amazing sponsors! Find your new favorite pair of pants at Betabrand! Get 25% off your first order by going to betabrand.com/dateline!
