  • 🚨 BONUS EPISODE ALERT! 🚨

    Okay, so there’s no true crime in this episode—unless we count what Big Pharma is doing to people who rely on GLP-1 medications (which, honestly, might be criminal).

    But first, let’s talk about something beautiful, life-changing, and deeply moving—The Biggest Little Farm. If you haven't seen this documentary, stop what you're doing and watch it immediately. I had the absolute honor of speaking to the creator and star, John Chester, for Jim Breuer’s podcast (bc Jim let me jump in thankfully), and WOW. This documentary wrecked me in the best way possible, and I can’t wait to tell you all about it.

    Then, we take a hard left into my current rage spiral over the crackdown on GLP-1’s.  As of today—March 19—compounded versions of meds like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound are officially off the table, leaving thousands (millions?) of people, including me, completely screwed. I break down why this matters, why it’s infuriating, and how I ended up talking to NPR about it.

    So if you want to hear me go from emotional documentary praise to full-blown righteous fury in under an hour—this one’s for you. Enjoy the chaos. 🎧

    xoxo, 
    Margot 💀✨😘

  • In this mini crime story, we’re diving straight into one of the most disturbing and baffling murder cases you've probably never heard of: the Dardeen family massacre. No long intro here—less than four minutes of my usual rambling before we get right to it.

    Picture this: a quiet, small town in Illinois, the kind of place where doors are left unlocked and crime is practically unheard of. Until November 1987, when the Dardeen family—Keith, Elaine, and their young son Peter—were brutally slaughtered in their home. The crime scene was so horrifying that even hardened detectives struggled to comprehend the sheer savagery of the attack. And just when you think this case can’t get any more twisted…it does.

    With no clear motive and an overwhelming level of brutality, the Dardeen case remains one of the most haunting and perplexing unsolved mysteries in true crime history.

    Buckle up. This one’s dark.

  • Today’s case… it’s a twisted one. And I know, I say that a lot—because, well, true crime is a dark, tangled web of human chaos. But this case? This one is unsettling for many reasons but one is because it starts off so… normal.

    A teenage girl. A babysitting job. A late-night check-in with a friend. And then… nothing. She just…vanishes.

    But what makes this case even more disturbing is who ends up being responsible for her disappearance and subsequent murder. Sadly, in Alexis Rasmussen’s case… the people she trusted the most were the ones who betrayed her in the worst way possible.

    This is the story of Alexis Rasmussen.

  • She had big dreams. A bright future. And in the early morning hours of September 7, 2012, that future was stolen from her in a way so brutal, so haunting, that it has left a community—and an entire nation—searching for justice. Today, we’re diving into the chilling case of Faith Hedgepeth, a 19-year-old college student found murdered in her Chapel Hill apartment. A crime so savage, yet so baffling, it took nearly a decade to get answers. But even with an arrest, does the truth really add up?

  • If you're here for murder and mystery... well, not today, friends! This bonus episode is a true crime free zone. Instead, I'm taking you on a deep dive into Mark and my recent trip to Flagstaff—Nordic baths, the Grand Canyon, Crumbl cookies, and a tipsy grocery shopping adventure that may or may not have ended in some questionable purchases. I also get into the ups and downs of weight loss, unexpectedly being contacted by a private investigator (because of course), and a handful of other random life things😊.

    For those of you who love these episodes and enjoy my unfiltered ramblings, grab a drink & get comfy. And if you’re just here for the true crime, I totally get it—a brand-new mini crime story drops tomorrow! To all of you who continues to listen and support, THANK YOU + LOVE YOU❤️

  • Some stories haunt you, and this is one of them. A girl goes for a bike ride… and simply never comes back. No evidence of a struggle. No witnesses stepping forward. No body. And then, nearly a year later, a chilling photograph surfaces in a parking lot almost 1,500 miles away. Was it her? Is she still alive? And why, after decades, do the pieces of this puzzle still not quite fit?

    This is the story of Tara Calico.

  • Hey, friends! Just popping in with a little check-in—because I was hoping to have a bonus episode for you this week, but life had other plans. It’s been a wild one, and despite my best efforts, I just couldn’t squeeze it in. I hate missing an episode, and I truly appreciate you all for being so understanding.

    But! In lieu of a new bonus episode, I am sharing a fun one I recorded with Branden over on our YouTube channel (will drop tonight at midnight!). If you haven’t watched our bonus episodes together yet, this is the perfect time to dive in. Just click the link below to check it out—along with all the other fun bonus episodes we’ve done together!

    And for those who are interested—Mark and I will be recording a brand-new bonus episode this weekend in Flagstaff, so there’s more goodness coming your way very soon. Plus, our regularly scheduled crime episode will be out on Tuesday, as always.

    Thank you all for being the absolute best. Your support means everything to me, and I appreciate you more than I can say. Love you, mean it—XOXO! 💛

  • In July of 2011, 32-year-old Rebecca Zahau was found dead at the historic Spreckels Mansion in Coronado, California—a massive, oceanfront estate owned by her boyfriend, pharmaceutical tycoon Jonah Shacknai. Rebecca’s body was discovered hanging from a balcony, bound at the wrists and ankles, a cryptic message scrawled on the bedroom door. Authorities ruled it a suicide… but did she really do this to herself? Or was something far more sinister at play?

    From eerie last text messages to an investigation that left more questions than answers, this case is as twisty as they come. Suicide? Murder? Cover-up? We’re breaking it all down.

    PLUS: A very special thank you to all the recent Apple reviews that called out my disgusting mouth noises and off-topic tangents—in this episode, I worked really hard to avoid saying “um,” to avoid making annoying mouth noises, and to avoid having off-topic rambles. But if you still catch any of this, PLEASE let me know! I will keep trying to improve and thank you for joining me on this journey of self-improvement and…murder💀🌵🩷

  • A quiet Texas town, a locked house, and a chilling crime that made no sense. When 14-year-old Tristan Dilley was found shot to death in her own home in 2017, the mystery seemed impossible—no sign of forced entry, no obvious suspects, and a timeline that left investigators baffled. But as they dug deeper, hidden truths began to surface, leading to a revelation that no one saw coming.

    Who had access to Tristan that night? And what could possibly drive someone to commit such a brutal act?

    Join me as we unravel the details of a case that shook a family, a town, and left lingering questions that demand answers.

  • In this special mini-crime story, we take a brief detour from the Southwest and head straight into the heart of the Midwest—Michigan, to be exact. But before we dive into this chilling case, I spend the first six minutes talking about my dad (because I need advice!!). 
    Then, we shift gears and unravel the story of Tara Grant—a woman who seemingly had it all until her life took a dark and unexpected turn. What started as a picture-perfect marriage quickly spiraled into a tangled web of control, deceit, and ultimately, a gruesome crime that left an entire community stunned. 
    What really happened to Tara, and who was responsible? Tune in for all the twists and turns in this episode of Death by Southwest Midwest.

  • A dark, empty church. A masked figure dressed in police SWAT gear, casually strolling through the halls, smashing windows. And a woman—completely unaware—that she’s walking straight into her own murder. This is the story of Missy Bevers… a case filled with eerie surveillance footage, cryptic clues, and a suspect that, to this day, has never been found.

  • In this bonus episode, I’m tackling a few Look-Up List questions from last week’s Episode 90! Plus, I’m spilling all the details about my weekend adventures, which included bowling, New York sausage, and a spontaneous trip to Tombstone.
    But wait—there’s more! I’m also dishing on some new products I’m trying, sharing some listener emails (because you’re all way more interesting than me), and, as always, diving into random tangents and overshares. It’s chaotic. It’s a little unhinged. And that’s just how I like it😂🩷🌵
    So grab a drink and let’s get into it! 🎙️

  • Welcome to 2025, friends!

    I’m kicking off the year with a mix of heavy and light. First up, the devastating LA Fires—my heart goes out to everyone affected by this tragedy. Sending love, strength, and prayers to all the families, first responders, and animals in harm’s way. Stay safe.❤️🙏

    Then, we’re diving into a holiday recap: my aunt’s visit to Tucson (spoiler alert: so much fun and a good amount of drama), the hands-down BEST sausage I’ve ever eaten, and my thoughts on starting the new year with a fresh mindset. And, of course, I couldn’t leave out my top TV picks to binge when life feels too overwhelming (hint: some serious gems made the cut).

    It’s a little reflective, a little chaotic, and as always, filled with lot of love. So, grab a coffee, settle in, and let’s kick off 2025 together.

    xoxo,
    Margot 💀✨😘
