A Date With Dateline

This week, Dateline brought us the disturbing (even for 2020) tale of a “charismatic” cult leader (him?) who left a tale of suspicious deaths and destruction in his wake. No, not Chad Daybell. A different one. ANGELS AND DEMONS brings us exactly that— A thousand year old fingerprintless DEMON who has an affinity for corvettes (again, him?)… and the only one strong enough to meet him face to face is a true ANGEL who has more than earned his wings: DENNIS MURPHY. Dennis shows us once again why he is more than enough as he deals with sensitive issues with heart and his special brand of folksy wisdom as only he can. He deserves a huge “attaboy”, but none deserve it more than the incredibly strong women featured in this episode! Have a tissue ready and join K & K for a very special episode of A Date with Dateline. TRIGGER WARNING: Please note this episode contains a trigger warning at around 45 minutes. If you or anyone you know is struggling with the effects of sexual abuse there is help available. Here are some resources for all brave survivors and for the friends and family of those who experienced the abuse. https://www.stopitnow.org/ National Sexual Assault Hotline - 1.800.656.HOPE https://findtreatment.samhsa.gov/ Official Description from NBCU: Multiple mysterious deaths occur inside a traveling commune, spurring a decade-long investigation that uncovers deadly and devastating secrets.

Kimberly and Katie are switching it up for this week's Double Date and checking out a Netflix series called DIRTY MONEY thanks to a recommendation from patronus (patroni, patroperson) Jenna! Roll out the blue barrel for one of the sweetest swindles in the history of heists- it's "The Maple Syrup Heist"! In this episode K & K get transported to one of the nicest places on earth, Canada, and learn all about the sticky underbelly of Quebec's maple syrup game, the overlords who run it and the rebels carving their own way through the sugar bush. Also on the discussion block is the existence/extinction of Canadian Dinosaurs, a magical place called the Justice Palace, a very painful civics and econ lesson and some equally painful butchering of the French language (although it's totally an "Eh" for effort). You'll never look at your IHOP breakfast the same way again after this extra sweet edition of A Double Date with Dirty Money! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Keith and the ADWD gals are heading to California’s farmland to find the label maker- obsessed sociopath who killed a father and made a hero of a little boy named Fabian (Dateline’s new MVP FOREVER). Which member of Peter, Paul, and Mary did the horrible deed, and why did they use so much extra postage when mailing anonymous letters to the police? How much Moore craziness can this episode handle? How about a dragon shoulder tattoo, a stray leg hair, and a defense theory that “beggars the imagination”? It’s FAMILY BUSINESS, which means that gossiping about it is K & K’s business. Official Description from NBCU: An explosion in a rice field in Colusa County, California kills the manager of a multi-million dollar farm. Police soon discover his death was no accident. Keith Morrison reports. This episode is dedicated to our lovely patrons Stacy C, Sue P, and Stephanie K, a trio of scientists dedicating their careers to a most worthwhile cause.

L.A. is a land of floundering would-be artists, fading stars, failed screenplays... and apparently also a place where it's rich old lady occupants come to cash in on the broken dreams scattered across Hollywood Blvd. In the second case from ID NETWORKS' Elder Skelter Episode 2 "Sex, Lies and Security Tape" entertainment-hopeful Kenny McDavid's future was cut short when he encountered two scheming seniors at a homeless lunch. Kimberly and Katie are shocked by the deviousness of the two "aging gym rats" and try to remember the time before their own dreams where steamrolled by the Hollywood machine. Not really... they get way too preoccupied with the film credits and personal life of Loni Anderson. But, grab a nice cup of tea and your knitting and settle in your comfy rocker for another foray into the scandalous underworld of the evil elderly!! Its ELDER SKELTER - CASE 2 (electric boogalo)!! Official Description from INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY: Ken McDavid hoped to make it in show business, but eventually ends up on the streets. When two little old ladies offer to help, it comes at a cost.

When a man is found dead in his gym’s parking lot, Queen Andrea is on the case! Once Kimberly can stop fawning over the Andrea's unearthly beauty, K & K are discussing a brand new Linda for them to judge! Tune in to see if she’s the kind of Linda that responds to Amazon questions with completely helpful non sequiturs ( eg. Does this toothbrush come in blue? She’s colorblind but she bought it in orange for her husband. Isn’t sure if it comes in blue. For the record, she can recommend a great knee doctor though). This case has everything: a mysterious pants awry situation, a love triangle, dirty deeds in a dental chair and the some very cool forensic research the helps solve the case. It all promises to be one scandalous “hot potato,” so wipe off that autopsy table, pull the CIA tracking device out of your teeth, and log off BeNaughty.com! It’s The Good Husband, AKA The One With The Dentist! Official Description from NBCU: Police suspect natural causes as they investigate a man's death, until they they uncover a love triangle that turns the tragedy into a tangled mystery.

It's time for another Double Date foray into the extensive list of content from the ID Network. This time Kimberly and Katie are venturing into the treacherous waters of the elderly... the elderly who kill, that is. This episode covers the first case from Elder Skelter Episode 2 "Death, Lies and Videotape" where Bob (not Kimberly's Dad Bob) and Bob's wife (probably not her real name) celebrate New Years Eve and get caught up in a murder happening many miles away. So, what do magazine selling cults, phone technology and a mid day hotel nap have to do with anything? Well grab a tall glass metamucil and settle back for ELDER SKELTER! Official Description from INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY: What happens when a 59-year-old "child" moves back in with his parents? One of them resorts to murder. Ken McDavid hoped to make it in show business, but eventually ends up on the streets. When two little old ladies offer to help, it comes at a cost.

“They’re watching us, they know where we are, how we shop, how we play, what we do, who we love. E-lectronic eyes, the sticky pixel fingerprints follow us almost everywhere, and the weird fractured personal diary they write, remains forever.

Get ready for K & K to analyze the legitimacy of a “detective” based entirely on his name and face, precious moments from a precious family, and a snitching priest!
