My birthday was 4 days ago, I'm old enough to run for president now. These are wild, historic times. It's a lot to risk because of COVID but I participated in BLM marches in Hollywood and Pittsburgh, gonna try to avoid people now in case I was exposed.

He was a man who most likely did many horrible things to many horrible people, as well as having access to top national defense secrets! Please enjoy this festive time of year however you see fit.2018-12-201h 05Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #68 - Murder Innit?From 18th century England comes the story of a horrific child abuse murder. As I forgot to do this at the beginning of the episode please take this as a trigger warning because violence against children is described. Please also note that we get super off topic in this episode but, like, we always do. And like, is this podcast even good? Truly we don't know. Dear god we hope you keep listening.2018-12-101h 03Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #67 - Los Hermanos MenendezIt's the Menendez brothers!

Shoot us an email.2018-10-2550 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #63 - John Wayne GacyLena picked a serial killer! Heard of him? We realize that actually some people may actually not have heard of John Wayne Gacy, but really, where were you hiding? We're really playing the hits this time, getting off the rails, existential dread, etc., this one is fun!2018-10-111h 07Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #62 - Henri LandruTo be quite fair and honest this episode is all over the place. It's light on accents but we slip some in. It is a mix between discussions of deep existential angst, what it means to be a psychopath and/or serial killer, and the very interesting story of Henri Landru, who killed at least 10 women in France in the early 20th century.2018-09-271h 11Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #61 - Aliens? Maybe.We discuss the Travis Walton "alien abduction" and a whole bunch of other stuff this episode. That abduction (very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very) probably did not happen. Harrison feels pretty strongly about extraterrestrials and jumps in for a while on this one. The biggest takeaway from this one is that thinking about space too much is horrifying.2018-09-131h 10Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #60 - Cannibalism 201: Continuing EducationMore cannibalism stuff, we know you love it (do you?). This is a pretty rip roarin' damn fun episode, pardon our 5 minute aside about religion and the peril of being aware of one's own existence, the vast majority of this episode is about cannibalism!!!2018-08-301h 07Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #59 - Richard SpeckDid Mark Wahlberg do 9/11? Mostly the episode is about Richard Speck though, most of you probably know who he is, if not it's pretty bad.2018-08-1653 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #58 - La GuillotineGUYS WE'RE SO SORRY!!! We know it's been almost a month since our last episode, we had to live our stupid lives. We also know our stupid lives will end someday, we hope that you can forgive this transgression as we will all be long forgotten someday and all memory of this and other podcasts will cease. Anyway lots of good, clean decapitation in this one! Lena gets a little dark (unusual), Alex makes everyone feel weird (usual), we're back!2018-08-021h 19Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #57 - The Highway of TearsLena discusses Canada's problems with its high rate of indigenous women who have been murdered over the decades, and specifically one stretch of highway in British Columbia. The hosts also talk about all kinds of other stuff (duh). What should we have as gifts, etc. for when we launch our patreon?2018-07-051h 08Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #56 - Budd DwyerA Pennsylvania legend, if you've never heard of him you're in for a horrible treat.

This was a birthday gift from Lena to Alex. Alex's favorite serial killer on his birthday. Also sorry haha lol (kidding for real sorry) we didn't release an episode last week. We've been going through some changes and please listen to our bullshit spiel at the beginning and give us some feedback if you're so inclined, thank you, we love youl2018-06-071h 18Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #54 - Never Love AnyoneThe Jodi Arias story, she stalked, harassed, and ultimately murdered her ex-boyfriend. You can kinda hear a band in the background because our new studio is in a warehouse with a bunch of other studios. So sorry about that, it's not too loud though, and you're gonna die someday so like big scheme not a huge deal.2018-05-2554 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #53 - Christman Genniperteinga, 1000 Murders?Was there a 16th century German cave dweller/robber/murderer who claimed 964 victims? No one really knows, but we sure talk about it!2018-05-1752 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #52 - Edmund KemperWe talk about one of America's most infamous serial killers Ed Kemper, the Coed Killer. Many of you are probably familiar with this case, but come along with us as Alex is sick and on dayquil and thus a touch loopy.2018-05-1050 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #51- The Toolbox KillersThis is a horrible, unpleasant, and not funny episode. Sorry about that. We recorded this one over a year ago before we figured out how to toe the line on picking certain crimes and trying to wring humor out of them. So apologies all around on that. We couldn't release a brand new one because life is an unceasing nightmare that constantly throws roadblocks in our way. We thank you for listening. Never die.2018-05-0349 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #50 - CryptidiotsFIFTY! We made it to 50 episodes, thank you to everyone who has listened and stuck with us this far.

Lena is perfect, Alex is garbage, stay with us for 50 more2018-04-261h 21Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #49 - American Werewolf in NowhereWerewolves, are they real? No. Get ready for an episode where Alex is at a loss for words as Lena regales us all with the wonder of werewolf internet forums. Alex is pretty low energy in this one and characteristically self-conscious, as always Lena is perfect. Thank you for your continued listenership.2018-04-1941 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #48 - "Ghost 'Stories'"In this episode Lena struggles to keep up with Alex's horrible research. Can anyone blame her? No they cannot. This is a meandering look at some really bad and poorly written internet ghost stories by two podcasters just trying to make sense of this godawful world. Enjoy!!2018-04-0556 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #47 - *Sigh* VampiresWe start off with Richard Chase, he's well known but talking about him never gets any less terrifying. Then we move on to some other blood suckers Lena found via reddit, the world is a cesspool and Alex melts down over and over again because of how seriously people take vampirism.2018-03-2952 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #46 - KISSM (Angels of Death)Alex hesitates to say something gross, Lena comes up with some killer acronyms, and so much fun is had all around. We also learn about lots of murders of the elderly and infirm.2018-03-221h 04Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #45 - John Edward RobinsonWe touch on a lesser known American serial killer from the 80's and 90's. 2018-03-1556 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #44 - Cannibalism: A ThinkpieceIs cannibalism bad? Yes, almost undoubtedly, but some people don't think so! If you'd like to hear their opinions this is your episode! Listen to some horrible takes about people eating other people.2018-03-081h 01Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #43 - Ghosts of PennsylvaniaPennsylvania is where we are from, there is a lot of history here. People think there are ghosts here, there aren't, not here and not anywhere else. But pretending can be fun (Lena is undecided on the issue of ghosts)!2018-03-0155 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #42 - Yorkshire RipperNot Yorkshire pudding...sorry that's a terrible joke. This is an episode about a brutal serial killer. We ramble for 8+ minutes at the beginning you have been warned! This is a fascinating case of a deranged and delusional psychopath, as well as stifling police ineptitude.2018-02-221h 02Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #41 - ALIVE, Eh...Not EveryoneThis is the story of the rugby team that crashed in the Andes mountains and had to eat the dead to survive. Lena chose an episode about cannibalism, without any influence from Alex! Oh joyous day, except for the story itself really. Though it is truly a story of triumphant survival so not amongst our most dismal episodes. But also it's about eating people.2018-02-1551 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #40 - President Hotel Room 1046An old fashioned murder mystery! In the year 1935 in Kansas City, Missouri a young man checked into the President Hotel, and a whole mess of odd occurrences later he never checks out. Hear about Alex's weird ears and enjoy his several meltdowns!2018-02-0851 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #39 - The Central Park FiveWhat happens when Lena is sick, both your hosts are feeling the sustained existential dread that winter brings with it, and the subject is a gross miscarriage of justice? You get a bummer of an episode! It's the same old story, coerced confessions, the facts don't add up, intense media scrutiny, etc. In this episode we explore the case of the Central Park 5 and remind ourselves about the lack of justice in the world lol! Just kidding about the lol.2018-02-0141 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #38 - The Grim SleeperHere's one from the vault! Our producer is sick so we couldn't put out a brand new one but you've never heard this, we recorded it early last year when we were just podcast babies. We're still only podcast toddlers...anyway you get the drift, it may sound different than recent ones! This is about a serial killer in Los Angeles that neither of us were familiar with, we hope you enjoy.2018-01-2545 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #37 - A Billion Little CutsTorture! Brazen bulls, Judas cradles, death by a thousand cuts (aka "A buncha cuts"). This episode is all about ancient and medieval torture and execution methods, and oh boy is it fun.2018-01-181h 03Give Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #36 - The Night StalkerRichard Ramirez, you know him, you hate him. This week Alex's awful and negative feelings about murder and death return, how exciting! Lena ruins her day because she reads this story which is well known, but always terrifying.2018-01-1152 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #35 - I See (and Make Love to) Dead PeopleNecrophilia, the entire episode is about necrophilia. Look, it's gross, but it's also really funny! There's no murder in this one just people who died of normal stuff so it's fun! We know though, it's like really, really gross.2018-01-0458 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #34 - Gilles de RaisGilles de Rais was a compatriot of Joan of Arc, and an important figure in 15th century France, but his main jam was killing kids. Part of this episode is super fun and funny, and part is horrifically dark, please enjoy! We hope you all are having a moneyed holiday season.2017-12-2858 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #33 - Reg ChristieOk so he did actually have a dick, but this Englishman struggled with impotence and was made fun of for it as a child. He was also later injured in a gas attack in WW1, what a winning combination for a well-adjusted adult! This episode includes serial murder, wrongful conviction, and sadness.2017-12-2144 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #31 - The Hotel of DeathWe're gearing up for the holidays with a real bummer of a story! This episode goes over the mysterious death of Elisa Lam at the Cecil Hotel in LA in 2013. It's not a fun story but it's a very interesting mystery. We also touch upon a few other mysterious deaths at the hotel over the years, and of course Alex mentions that nothing really matters.2017-12-0748 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #30 - Katherine KnightKatherine Knight! If you don't know this story you're about to hear some awful things!! It's hard to say whether Alex's attempts at an Australian accent or the ending to this story is more horrifying. This truly is a terrible, gross, gory episode (but not right away). Thanks for sticking with us we love you.2017-11-3059 min

No. At least not according to Alex. If you like when Alex hates something you will love this episode, and vice versa. Lena did not know this in advance all she did was provide us with a nice podcast topic, she's the best. ALSO: stick around after that story to hear a bonus interview with our producer Harrison!! We figured it'd be nice to hear from him since you guys don't know much about him, enjoy!2017-11-1656 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #27 - Meatballs and Murder (Belle Gunness)Gravy, meatballs, murder. November is upon us and Thanksgiving approaches so what better time to talk about these 3 Norwegian-American pasttimes. That makes no sense of course but neither does this podcast much of the time. Join us as Lena mispronounces meatballs and Alex latches onto the completely fiction concept of a "gravy servant." This is the story of the famous Belle Gunness, the Norwegian immigrant to the United States suspected of killing many of her suitors and stealing their money.2017-11-0255 min

A truly intriguing mystery, does the husband's alibi check out, if he didn't kill her who did? Was William Wallace (yeah that's his name) a chess playing master planner, or a patsy for someone whose motive for murder is unclear? Also Lena and Alex accidentally reveal their stance on Donald Trump, whoops!!!2017-07-1357 minGive Me Murder Or Give Me DeathGive Me Murder #9 - But It Was For Science!
