Episode 9: Leopold and Loeb
Malice and Mocktails
09/27/22 • 78 min
Hello friends! Apologies for the late posting of this week's episode. Join me as I share with Emily the tragic murder of Bobby Franks by Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb. These two fools think they have planned the "perfect crime" when they decide to kidnap and murder Bobby Franks. One minor slip up will be their downfall...not so perfect after all.
Several shout outs in this episode!!
Check out Nocturnal Distractions and their trailer at the beginning of the episode. You can find them HERE.
I mention Sips of Crime and Evil Pudding in the episode. Go check them out if you need more true crime in your life.
This week's mocktail is my take on a drink I found over at Spirited Spirits podcast called The Axe Murderer. So far I love their content and cases, so please check them out. You can find the original drink on their IG page HERE. I will post the recipe I come up with later in the week on our IG and FB pages!

Episode 7: The Bath Consolidated School Bombing
Malice and Mocktails
09/12/22 • 72 min
The Bath Consolidated School bombing took place on May 18, 1927, and was committed by a man named Andrew Kehoe. This week I'll share with Emily and our listeners this monster's background and how he managed to take out his anger toward its citizens on the school and subsequently their children....I'm not crying, you're crying :-(
Shoutout to my friends Courtney and Patrick over at Evil Pudding podcast! You can find them on Spotify and Apple podcast.
Also shoutout to my friend Wendy over at Demolished Salt Lake! You can find her on Spotify and Apple podcast
This week's mocktail recipe is compliments of Shantelle Pace aka she_thebartender over on Instagram. She is also on TikTok under the same handle. I used her zero proof cosmopolitan recipe and tweaked it a bit because I was lacking Seedlip Grove, so I opted for Lyre's Orange Sec and White Cane. I think it turned out pretty well. Definitely check out Shantelle's page for the original and other delicious drink recipes.

Episode 4: Howard Unruh's Walk of Death
Malice and Mocktails
08/01/22 • 45 min
On September 6, 1949, Howard Unruh walked out onto his street in Camden, NJ, and within 20 minutes had killed 13 of his neighbors and wounded three. This week I will share with you the case of the first mass shooter in US history, Howard Unruh.
This week's mocktail is inspired by a copycat cocktail my friend Tom found on Diznify.com. It is called Galaxy's Edge Jedi Mind Trick and the original can be found at Oga's Cantina in Disney World's Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. Below is my zero proof version:
Zero Proof Jedi Mind Trick
7.5 oz Grapefruit flavored sparkling water
1 oz Welches white grape juice
1 oz Orgeat; I used Liber & Co., but you can make your own and there are other brands.
2 tsp blue curacao syrup; look for alcohol free versions
Juice from half a lime
A few dashes of grapefruit bitters
Step 1 - Combine all ingredients into a shaker filled with ice, shake or stir, then strain into your favorite vessel.

The untimely deaths of Isabella Ruxton and Mary Rogerson took place on September 15, 1935. Their dismembered bodies were discovered in a ravine over two weeks after their deaths and Buck Ruxton, Isabella's husband and a well liked local surgeon, is the prime suspect.

1 sugar cube or 1 bar spoon simple syrup
Place the sugar cube into the bottom of a chilled rocks glass and add bitters. Muddle the sugar cube and bitters with a spoon or muddler. If you are using simple syrup, combine the bitters with the syrup in the glass. Add the whisky and stir.

Episode 10 - Jesse Pomeroy
Malice and Mocktails
10/03/22 • 56 min
Wow, we made it to episode 10! To capture this awesome milestone join me as I tell Emily all about Boston's boy torturer and killer, Jesse Pomeroy. Jesse's rein of terror took place in the 1870s, so I am taking you way back. Emily also shares with me a mocktail she found on TikTok (@themindfulmocktail) called a Simple Sunrise Mocktail. It is a super simple AF version of the classic tequila sunrise - just swap out the tequila with your zero proof tequila of choice. Ritual makes a pretty good tequila alternative, and there are several others out there on the market now including Spiritless, Free Spirits, and Sobrii. I have not personally tried these so cannot vouch for their flavor palette, but they are on my list to try :-)
Shoutout to Always Talking Crime podcast hosted by Kimi Thompson! Check out her trailer at the beginning of the episode, and you can find her on Spotify and Podbean, and everywhere you get your podcasts. She is also all over social media and can be found in Instagram and Facebook.
