Description

We're back! We start this episode off with a quick acknowledgement that.. everything is a lot right now. Next, we do a quick life update and then dive into the bizarre and unsettling case of Erin Patterson, the mushroom murderer. 

What begins as a seemingly wholesome lunch spirals into a true crime tale so wild it feels made up, but unfortunately is very real (like the reality we're living in!). Expect dark turns, questionable decisions, and the kind of side commentary that only happens when the world is on fire and you're coping with humor.
