This is a podcast where two sisters research and comment on murders committed by black offenders, some of which, barely get any public attention. Because of this, they are able to accumulate significant amounts of victims & operate for long periods of times without being caught. We will also be discussing missing African American victims, unsolved cases, as well as solved disappearances. DISCLAIMER: THIS PODCAST IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART. LISTENER DISCRETION IS ABSOLUTELY ADVISED. Intro & Outro music credits: Horror by Paradox Beats Beat is being used with private/owned leasing rights.

Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.
A disappearance case driven by rowdy banter and sharp family anger.
This episode traces a disappearance case that quickly becomes a fight over what happened in Yvonne's apartment. Buffy stays at the center as the story moves through Yvonne, David, and a family that clearly knows something is wrong, which keeps the pressure building from the…
Clear chronology and blunt reaction keep the case sharp, even with a looser conversational style.
The episode traces a true-crime case from the original offense through the plea deal, the no-contact order, the repeated phone calls, and the bus-stop confrontation. It keeps the victim at the center and does not soften the hosts' outrage at the violations that follow.
A lively true crime profile that balances contradiction, context, and personality.

A City Hall murder episode anchored by HG's desperate walk for help.

A prison-to-killer story told with bite, friction, and no softness for Chester Wheeler Campbell.
The episode treats Chester Wheeler Campbell as a man hardened by prison rather than made better by it. After 13 years inside, and out in September 1969 at 38 or 39, he comes across as someone who spent that time reading, studying art and music, and returning with the name Dr.
A public-murder story shaped by grief, suspicion, and blunt reactions.
The episode circles a public murder and never lets the official story feel settled. It keeps its focus on motive, pressure, and the wreckage left behind, which gives the conversation a tense, human edge instead of a neat procedural shape.
Direct fuel for intentional living.
