  • EP 58 On the Trail of Murder in Shenandoah (Part 2)
    Jan 27 2025
    OK Slaycaters, it’s time for the shocking conclusion of our tragic tale of murder in Shenandoah National Park. If you haven’t heard Part 1, you’ll want to do so in order to be up on all the facts of the case featuring Julie and Lollie, two young lovers and hikers who were just starting their life together. Unfortunately, they won’t make it out of the park alive. The twists and turns the investigation takes will have you guessing and second-guessing whodunnit (it sure did with us!) Again, a word of warning as this case is exceptionally brutal and sad — (then again, which ones aren’t?). But at least there is a resolution — one we assure you will NOT see coming! As this case tragically illustrates there is no shortage of creeps, assaulters, and murderers wandering even the most serene and picturesque parts of the world — so stay safe out there! Peace.

  • EP 57 On the Trail of Murder in Shenandoah (Part 1)
    Jan 20 2025
    OK Slaycaters, today’s case takes us to the Shenandoah National Park where two young lovers, and avid hikers and expert woods-women, Julie and Lollie, decide to go for a celebratory camping trip before moving in together. Let’s just say, things don’t go as planned. The less you know going into this heartbreaking case the better — but just know this story takes some insane turns and will have you guessing the entire time. Word of warning: This case is pretty brutal. Second word of warning: We don’t get into the case for about 10 minutes because Jerry fell off his bike and had to tell us the whole story! But whether you’re hiking in the woods or biking in the city — please stay safe out there! SUBSCRIBE to SLAYCATION PLUS(+) For AD FREE listening & "MORE KIM!' Bonus Segments!
