We Thought You Asked: A True Crime-ish Podcast

Welcome to today’s episode! Today, we’re talking about:

(0:00) Catching Up: Chatting about sleeping separately from your partner, Kelly’s vacation in Sidemen (Bali) and why it made her feel like a 90-year-old woman, and how the pandemic changed our relationships with socialization

(7:18) Being Vulnerable vs. Oversharing: where do you draw the line? How do you know when you’re talking too much, versus being open and raw? What does this mean in friendships, romantic relationships, etc.? How does being vulnerable deepen relationships? How does oversharing make people feel uncomfortable? How do you know the difference between the two?

(15:24) Gabby Petito & Brian Laundrie: the downsides and the upsides of social media when it comes to crimes, what’s wrong with the media’s coverage of this case, how mental health plays into this case (anxiety, gaslighting, OCD, and more), abusive relationships and what may have happened in this situation, and what we can learn from this case when looking at it through a mental health lens with a therapist.

*Trigger Warning: in today’s episode, we discuss the Gabby Petito’s disappearance and murder, abusive relationships, and other mental health struggles.

Torie & Kelly

Welcome to Episode 6! Today, we’re chatting about crimes and pop culture:

(0:00) Torie moved and bought Uggs (sort of), and why not washing your bedsheets is a true crime.

(4:09) Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly are speaking Kelly’s language...but it’s a lot. We discuss the worst project they have ever been involved in, and passionate & press-filled relationships.

(8:11) Detective Meghan King Edmonds is now Meghan King Owens after a whirlwind 3-week relationship, and we have some thoughts. We wonder if President Biden does too?

(12:35) Kim hosted SNL and we discuss her plastic surgery, OJ Simpson comments, and comedic timing.

(15:44) Kylie Jenner is a business woman with a hustle (or is she??) Kylie Cosmetics launched A Nightmare on Elm Street collection and the marketing campaign is grossing us out.

(17:43) The trailer for Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip was released, but Torie is already holding out for Season 2. Wonder what Brandi Glanville is up to these days?

(19:42) The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills trailer came out, and Torie’s tune has *changed.* Andy Cohen calls Erika Jayne/Erika Girardi out, and is the network protecting her and Tom from the law? Teresa Giudice went to jail and why Erika should be taking notes. Does Tom have dementia? And, why a dead guy keeps his spot in the Vegas Black Book.

(29:56) Juliana and Michael from 90 Day Fiance broke up, why we don’t watch the show anymore, the craziest reality TV scene Kelly’s ever seen, Geoffrey is facing 20 years in prison, how the producers are putting the cast in danger, and did they take it too far?

(38:31) The Zodiac Killer has been identified: how they discovered & confirmed who it was, and why we’re invested in the case

(42:04) Murdaugh Family Murders: we explain what we know about this family, and why learning more about this corruption-filled mystery is worth your time.

(53:42) The weirdest thing Torie’s ever bought from an Instagram ad, and why Kelly immediately regretted asking in the first place.

Welcome to our very first episode! 🥳 Today, we get our feet wet as we jump into the podcast world and chat about:

(0:00) Catching Up: Labor Day, how we celebrate American holidays in Bali, pumpkins, pumpkin pies, and pumpkin spice lattes

(8:20) Kylie Jenner is officially pregnant

(11:49) A family history of reality TV, why Kelly doesn’t watch it now, and why we find it so fascinating

(15:35) Getting real about reality TV. Is reality TV real? Siesta Key, Erika Girardi, Khloe Kardashian, and others: are reality TV stars “real people,” or are they portraying a character to entice us to watch? Is social media today making it more difficult for these people to pretend they are something they aren’t? Is this okay? Why are we so intrigued by this? Are they entitled to privacy, or do reality TV stars sign up for this scrutiny?
