Goodbye. Goodbye. Hello. And welcome to My Favorite Murder. The mini-sode. That's right.
00:02:25
We read you your stories. Thank you for sending them. Yes, we really appreciate it.
00:02:29
You want me to go first? Yeah. Okay. The subject line of this email is, the time my sister almost accidentally joined a zoo cult.
00:02:38
It says, Hi, all. A few years ago, about a month after my younger sister graduated from high school,
00:02:44
my mom's sister and I went out to dinner to celebrate my sister's graduation. I asked my sister what she planned on doing now that she's out of school,
00:02:51
and she told me that she was moving across the state and going to work at a zoo as a zookeeper
00:02:57
and that she was actually leaving the next day. When she was in high school, she volunteered at
00:03:02
a zoo around our area, so she was really excited to get a job at one. I asked her what her job
00:03:07
would be like. Let me know if these raise any red flags. She told me that they provide housing on
00:03:13
the premises for all their staff, so she wouldn't need to worry about finding an apartment. They also
00:03:18
take care of all the employees' finances so they never have to go to a bank. All meals are provided
00:03:23
for the employees so they don't have to worry about buying groceries. Employees are not allowed
00:03:28
to leave the premises. Employees are not allowed to have visitors. Employees have to gather every
00:03:34
morning and say a mandatory prayer before work and before they go to bed every night, and they only
00:03:40
employ women. My sister was so excited about working at a zoo, she apparently overlooked the
00:03:46
fact that she was about to join a cult. I asked her if she thought any of these things were weird,
00:03:52
and she said, well, now that I'm saying it out loud, I guess it is a little weird.
00:03:57
Since she was all set to leave for the zoo cult the next day, I made her pull out her phone and
00:04:03
email the zoo and tell them that unfortunately, the job is not going to work out. I think that
00:04:08
was the first and only time my sister ever listened to me. Thanks for reading my story.
00:04:12
stay sexy and don't let your sister join a cult. Taylor from Wisconsin. Oh my God. Yeah. You get so excited about an opportunity when you're 18 and it's like a big
00:04:24
deal that you don't really like stop. Yes. And you're also like, because we're so indoctrinated
00:04:30
to like, listen to authority and do what the teacher says and blow all our lives. When that
00:04:36
gets ratcheted up a little bit, you're like, well, I guess this is what real life is like.
00:04:40
This is what adults do. It's a job. It's more strict than high school. It's like, no, no, no.
00:04:44
It shouldn't be. I wonder, has anyone heard of this cult? Join this cult? Know about it?
00:04:50
Please let us know. A zoo cult. A zoo cult. Be careful. There are worse cults to be in.
00:04:55
What if it was Carole Baskin's thing from Tiger King? I was thinking that. Yeah.
00:05:00
Could have been. Could have been. I mean, anything's possible. It's true. Okay. You asked for dad lore.
00:05:06
Includes badass outlaws in the 1800s. What's up, MFM crew and pets? I'm way too excited to get into this.
00:05:14
So sorry for the short intro. But as always, you are amazing and so fun to listen to.
00:05:18
By far, my fave podcast of all time. Hey, thank you. I just listened to Minnesota 360 and there were two emails about dad lore.
00:05:25
I about died. Man, do I have dad lore for you. My dad grew up in a very small town in Utah.
00:05:31
He graduated from a class of seven people. And most of them were his cousins. It says slim pickings for dating.
00:05:40
Mm hmm. He has amazing stories of growing up in a small town in the 70s and 80s.
00:05:45
And honestly, we're just lucky he made it through those times alive. My dad lore story is about Butch Cassidy.
00:05:51
If you don't know who Butch Cassidy is, I'll give you a brief backstory. He was born in Utah in the late 1800s and was a famous American outlaw who ran with the Sundance Kid It says when he was a grown man obviously not when he was a sweet baby
00:06:05
He robbed several trains and banks before taking a short break in Argentina to run a
00:06:09
ranch with his girlfriend. It says, ah, sweet. However, he returned to outlawry shortly after.
00:06:16
Here's where the dadbler steps in. One time while out riding ATVs with my dad and uncle
00:06:20
in his tiny hometown, he took me up to this very worn and weathered shed. The lore goes that this
00:06:26
shed was a hideout that Butch Cassidy used while trying to escape the police on one of his grand
00:06:31
schemes. My dad said that one of our ancestors helped him build it and would bring him food and
00:06:36
water while he was hiding out, which I thought was badass. As I always knew, I came from chaos
00:06:41
defenders. I like that. Chaos defenders. My dad showed me numerous gunshots in the wood and said
00:06:48
that the story goes he was ambushed while hiding out in the shed. He was later captured for a short
00:06:53
time and served some time in a Wyoming prison. This lore is a lore. I have tried looking into
00:06:59
the shed and the story of Butch Cassidy numerous times, but I can't find anything about the shed.
00:07:04
However, locals believe this lore like it's scripture. So of course I do too. My dad always has the most amazing stories of his hometown, adventures, and getting into so
00:07:13
much trouble. He's always meant so much to me and so has this little town. I'm now 18 weeks pregnant
00:07:19
with a baby boy of my own and I will be naming him after my dad and my grandpa. I hope he gets
00:07:25
to hear all of these stories and will know the amazing legacy he is named after. Chaos defenders
00:07:30
for life. Sorry for the long story. I tend to be long-winded, which I get from a storytelling father.
00:07:36
Stay sexy and maybe help a local outlaw if you get the chance or don't. You choose.
00:07:41
and it says Kenzie and baby boy. Kenzie and her baby boy. I mean, I love the idea of a dad that's like,
00:07:50
see that shed over there? And it's like, so whether it's true or false, it doesn't matter.
00:07:55
It doesn't matter. It's like, here's who you are. This is what we're like. This is how we do it.
00:08:00
Here's like just some imagination in your life. Yeah, I do love that. Yeah. Cool, Kenzie.
00:08:07

00:10:56
Quince.com slash MFM. Goodbye. This next email, the subject line is trash dog. And it just gets right into it. It starts,
00:11:07
we have trash dad. We have hero dog. I present to you now, trash dog. I grew up with our family's boxer mix, Mojo. He's a large dog with a large personality and
00:11:19
still going strong at 13 years old. Good boy. He's my mom's favorite child. And then it says,
00:11:25
she has three human daughters. Wow. Yeah. Her lock screen, her home screen and Facebook profile
00:11:31
profile photo. I love it. And she gets furious when we point out that Mojo is getting fat as
00:11:38
older dogs do because she's adamant that he's somehow becoming big boned. When I was 16,
00:11:44
my best friend and I took the train from New Jersey to Philly for a music festival. Being 16,
00:11:49
we were drunk off one beer between the two of us and having the time of our lives When we got home maybe 1am of course we decided to make an entire family box of frozen jalapeno poppers So we preheated the oven set out maybe 40 frozen solid poppers And then in parentheses
00:12:07
it says this is important. And it says on a tray on the kitchen counter, ready to bake,
00:12:11
and went upstairs to change and probably not take off our makeup. Sorry, Karen's glass skin routine.
00:12:17
Don't worry about it. I'm new to it. When we came back downstairs, there was not a single
00:12:22
trace of those jalapeno poppers. The tray was left on the counter so clean and untouched that
00:12:27
we went through the trash for the wrapper to make sure we didn't hallucinate actually putting them
00:12:32
out. Turning around, we see Mojo on the couch laying belly up, fat and happy. Yep, our trash
00:12:39
dog not only jumped onto the counter and ate a few dozen frozen solid jalapeno poppers in about
00:12:45
five minutes in the middle of the night, but he also did so in a way that didn't leave a single
00:12:51
crumb or move anything else in the kitchen. We stood there for in shock for minutes and then
00:12:57
accepted our popperless future. Mojo was fine. And I'm sure very proud of himself. And then it just
00:13:03
says love you to SSDGM and happy Hanukkah from the Netherlands. Maddie. Wow. It's those kinds
00:13:10
of dogs that can eat anything. And then the ones like Cookie who eats one weird thing and like,
00:13:17
just goes into a spiral, you know? Oh, yeah. Trash dogs. Total trash dogs. My sister's old dog, Grace, she was a great Pyrenees, those huge white dogs.
00:13:26
Yeah, fluffy. Yeah, fluffy and great. And I came into the kitchen one time and Grace was standing up.
00:13:33
So it looked like a person who was about 5'11 was standing in the kitchen and she was just eating a rotisserie chicken.
00:13:40
Like she had gotten the container open and she was just standing there eating it
00:13:44
because she knew she had like we were all in the back of the house. Yeah. Also washing off our
00:13:49
makeup. And she knew she had like two minutes to get it done. It was so hilarious. Picking it clean.
00:13:54
Good girl. Confessions of a sleepwalker. Apologies to Italy. Longtime listener, avid non-participator here. Too much anxiety for introduction scrutiny. So here we go.
00:14:07
That's right. Skip it. Skip it. My husband is the most unnerving sleepwalker and talker I've ever
00:14:12
heard of. What began as regular innocent summonings of his childhood dog and panicked requests for me
00:14:19
to kill non-existent spiders quickly turned more sinister as I now wake up to him several times a
00:14:25
week, springing out of bed with wide eyes and a shaking, pointing finger informing me that he's
00:14:31
hiding right there and he has a gun. No, no. Divorce. No, just separate rooms. Okay, the first
00:14:41
few times this happened, I would fly from bed and search the house with him, flashlight and
00:14:45
Nace in hand, adequately freaked out. Ten years later, I tell him to stop, groan when he insists
00:14:51
on using his flashlight, and will be an utter lost cause the day I ever do have a home intruder.
00:14:58
Yeah. Back in our 20s, however, he took this act internationally. We were splurging on an
00:15:04
Italian vacation, so we didn't put in the required thought when we booked one night in a hostel,
00:15:09
a room shared with 12 other foreign strangers. No, you can't do that when you have my terrors.
00:15:16
A first and last time in a hostel for my nocturnal psychopath husband and me. I was a novice trip planner and after I jammed a day in Venice, I allotted about five hours of
00:15:26
sleep at the hostel before a train to Florence. Lack of sleep equals prime condition for sleep
00:15:32
outbursts. We had been asleep in our hostel bunk nearly two hours, three to go when a fellow foreign
00:15:38
roommate entered the shared room and the door shuts just loud enough to stir the sleeping chaos
00:15:43
below me. At once, wood and iron bedposts shriek and banging knocks erupt through the room,
00:15:50
my bed shaking from the bunk beneath me. All caps. Open up. It's the police. Open up.
00:15:57
To my hardly cognizant horror, it's the voice of my husband. young travelers hop out of bed shouts and confusion explode through the room in several
00:16:09
different languages it says likely embellished here and someone runs out of the room as my
00:16:14
husband continues rapping on the bedpost i mean out of 12 people in a hostel one person has to
00:16:21
at least be carrying something hell yes they are right my sleeping self has very slow reactive
00:16:28
skills and has been trained to sleep through these exact scenarios for the past few years.
00:16:32
So the best I had to offer the traumatized travelers was a wave of my hand over the bunk
00:16:36
rail and a stop, lay down. After several more police threats, it says this guy has never been
00:16:43
on the police force and more knocking. Our friends in the neighboring bunk finally shushed him more
00:16:48
forcibly and calmed their roommates with information that he was sleep talking. The room settled into
00:16:53
an awkward sleep and I couldn't tell you if the runner ever came back or found another place to
00:16:58
sleep that night. We slept under there three hours later and were relieved we never had to look those
00:17:05
roommates in the eye. We will, however, do the hostile staying community the service of never
00:17:10
sharing a room with them again and spare them from future midnight traumas. Thank you for being you
00:17:15
and doing what you do. Stay sexy and get sleep studied. SSGSS. Emma. SSGSS. I mean, I stayed at
00:17:27
a hostel once when we were in Ireland, my friend and I, and it was the same exact thing where we're
00:17:31
just like, well, we're just there for the Galway Arts Festival. So it's like, it was too last minute.
00:17:35
We couldn't get a regular hotel. We didn't have our own towels. You have to bring towels? You're
00:17:41
supposed to bring your own towels. Like you have to kind of bring everything. Yeah. I just had no
00:17:45
idea what we were in for. No, it was so unpleasant, like drying yourself with your own shirt, where
00:17:51
you just like how are we fucking doing this And then same thing two in the morning we fully sleeping because we in our 30s like mid 30s These two from what I remember they were like Cockney British girls come in fighting and just they don
00:18:09
give it. They're so drunk and they're fighting with each other. And they wake up everyone in
00:18:14
the room where it's like, yeah, why are 12 adults sleeping in one room? This is insanity. It was
00:18:19
It was the craziest experience. Never done a hostel. Slept in a car before a few times, but never a hostel.
00:18:26
On like a road trip? Yeah, road trip or like ill-planned Coachella hang. Yeah. You know, like we'll find a place.
00:18:33
And then no, you don't. No, no, you're not going to. Oh, man. Amazing. While the world watches the stars at the FIFA World Cup this summer, Hyundai has its eyes on the next generation of talent.

00:21:02
Bye. Here's my last one. And let me just say, I love this email. Okay. It just starts.
00:21:10
Hey there. I've always been bad at intros and I will continue to be bad at intros.
00:21:15
I love you guys. Let's just start. I was born and raised in a small town in Northern Kentucky, basically Cincinnati, but it's a
00:21:22
thing another time. I went to a Catholic elementary school. At this elementary school, as noted in multiple other minisodes, we sold magazine subscriptions
00:21:31
to raise money for who knows what. I have a brother who's three years older than me,
00:21:35
and he's incredibly competitive, like to a fault still to this day. He would be the top seller in
00:21:42
magazine subscriptions from second to sixth grade at this school. And the winner always got to go
00:21:48
to the money booth. That's right. My brother went to the money booth five years in a row.
00:21:54
Oh, not fair. Not fair. You got to be disqualified after two years. Nope, absolutely fair. He sold those goddamn subscriptions. Imagine what a slick little
00:22:05
salesman. Oh, yeah. Second grade and you beat sixth graders because you're so good at sales.
00:22:11
Yeah, no, that's true. So with a grand total of maybe twenty three dollars in winnings over
00:22:16
those five years of from the money, his seventh grade year, he decided that he would let me be
00:22:24
the winner. So he filled out all his sales in my name and I won top seller. Could you imagine
00:22:30
having a sibling that actually likes you enough to do something like that? Never in a million
00:22:35
years would my siblings do that for me. Even today. My sister would deny she knew me.
00:22:42
Okay. But she would beat up people who are trying to be mean to me then. Oh, that's nice.
00:22:46
Her nature. Okay. So I realized in this moment how cool this was of him. And I take back the
00:22:52
overly competitive comment. It's more of a fact than an opinion. Okay. I got to go in the money
00:22:58
booth. He gave me lots of tips. Shove as much as you can in your shirt. Try to grab with your whole
00:23:03
arms, not your hands and stay focused. Can you imagine like a 12 year old talking to you? Yeah.
00:23:12
Okay. It says I was probably eight. It was the early 2000s. It was my time to shine. I got 30
00:23:17
seconds to grab as much cash as I could. The principal made a big deal about dropping a $20
00:23:23
bill into the booth before I stepped in. I stepped in smiling and ready to grab.
00:23:28
They turned on the booth and I absolutely panicked. It turns out I'm claustrophobic.
00:23:36
And them locking me in a telephone booth size box with loud wind freaked me out enough that I
00:23:42
immediately started screaming and crying and asked to be let out. They turned it off and let me out.
00:23:50
But I did have a dollar bill stuck in my uniform jumper. So I guess not all a loss.
00:23:55
My brother hasn't let me live this down to this day. No, it's true. Right. He's 100% right.
00:24:03
So we also did a competition in school for accelerated reader points. Basically, accelerated reader points were earned by reading books, then taking quizzes on the books you read.
00:24:13
Being the budding book nerd that I was, I had the most points in the whole school as a fifth grader.
00:24:19
My prize, me and the second place reader got picked up in a limo from school, taken to Pizza Hut for lunch.
00:24:28
and then we got to, in all caps, work as a bank teller at our local bank. That's right. For two hours on a Tuesday, a 10-year-old got to press the button that shoots
00:24:42
the little tube back to you in the drive-thru line. We got to see the safe and talk to customers.
00:24:49
Why was the surprise? Who knows? But I got out of school for the day and this was probably the
00:24:56
pinnacle of my educational career. I did not become a bank teller, although as a nurse during
00:25:02
the pandemic, I certainly considered the career change. Thank you for all you do. Stay sexy and
00:25:08
win elementary school competitions because there's no fun prizes in adulthood. Allie, she, her.
00:25:16
I want a personal pan pizza and a limo. And then get your greasy fingers all over the change you're
00:25:22
making for I just think that's so funny. It's almost like there's some adult at that school
00:25:26
that's like, yeah, children love money. And it's like, no, no, you love money. You're just putting
00:25:32
it on. Yeah. Like what else is there besides? Well, my dad works at the bank. I could ask him
00:25:37
if they could know they're good with pizza and a limo. I feel like I wonder if they got the idea
00:25:42
filling the money booth with cash at the bank. And then they're just like, let's get all this
00:25:48
taken care of at one spot. It goes all the way to the top. It does. Okay, last one. Different kind
00:25:53
of first responder story. Happy ending. Hello, Karen, Georgia, wonderful pets and other exactly
00:25:59
right humans. My husband's aunt picture a beautiful Hawaiian born Filipino American woman
00:26:04
and his Arkansas born career army uncle picture Andy Griffith and you can hear that accent.
00:26:12
We visiting the Grand Canyon in the 1960s With them they had their Weimaraner dog named Ipu Ipu is a diminutive for the Hawaiian word kiwipu which means my sweetheart Great name for a dog right
00:26:26
Yes. While walking along the southern rim of the canyon, Ipu spotted a bird flying nearby.
00:26:31
As any good hunting dog will do, Ipu pursued that bird, leaping into the air to snatch it.
00:26:39
Unfortunately, Ipu was unaware that she was at the rim of the Grand Canyon, and she tumbled over the ledge.
00:26:44
Upon frantic investigation by Auntie Edna and Uncle Ben, Ipu was seen about 20 feet below, standing on an outcropping.
00:26:53
She was an obedient dog, and she sat when they frantically commanded her to do so.
00:26:59
Sit, Ipu. Sit down and live. A park ranger was summoned, and he came with a rope.
00:27:05
He was going to rappel down to the outcropping, grab Ipu in his arms, and get hoisted back to safety.
00:27:11
Ipu had other ideas. When the ranger approached, Ipu growled. He was, after all, a stranger, and Ipu had to have been confused and frightened.
00:27:20
Unsurprisingly, the ranger was reluctant to grab a growling Weimaraner in his arms while dangling over the Grand Canyon.
00:27:27
So, the ranger was hoisted back up to the rim of the canyon, and Uncle Ben was tied to the rope.
00:27:33
He rappelled down to the outcropping, grabbed Ipoo in his arms, and he and Ipoo were pulled back to safety.
00:27:39
I've always been impressed with the fact that a Grand Canyon Park ranger was willing to rappel into the canyon to save a dog.
00:27:45
What a first responder. And I'd always loved my husband's uncle, and I loved him even more after hearing this family story.
00:27:52

And don't get murdered. Goodbye. Elvis, do you want a cookie? Welcome to the 10th season of Tenfold More Wicked on Exactly Right.
00:29:16
This time I head to Williamsburg, Virginia to explore a case from my favorite era in history,
00:29:22
the mid-18th century, 10 years before the American Revolution. I'm your host, Kate Winkler-Dawson, a true crime historian and author.
00:29:34
During my travels, I meet experts and local historians to learn about the deaths of three men in Colonial Williamsburg.
00:29:41
It's the most interesting true crime case that you've never heard of that is extraordinarily well documented for what it is.
00:29:50
Two of the men are members of the wealthy gentry class, and one is a common merchant.
00:29:55
Just as people today feel pressure, they actually take some desperate measures to protect their family, protect their reputations.
00:30:04
Each death in some way changes history. Their stories illustrate how desperate times lead to desperate actions.
00:30:12
We're not talking about a switchblade. We're talking about something that might be a foot, two feet long, right?
00:30:19
It's meant to do damage. This season of Tenfold More Wicked is about protecting the wealthy and the powerful.
00:30:27
All of these people know each other and are intermarried. And what do we love more than rich people behaving badly?
00:30:34
And a group of frustrated colonists rising up against power and privilege. This is Season 10 of Tenfold More Wicked.

They've been making iconic sandals forever. But what you might not know is that they also make ridiculously comfortable everyday shoes.
00:32:34
The Neptune is a lightweight everyday slip-on shoe with a crushed back heel, so you can wear it traditionally or step on the heel and wear it like a slide.
00:32:42
Lightweight, breathable, and easy to wear, the Neptune is the everyday shoe your feet have been waiting for.
00:32:46

00:32:51
because I want both all the time. Everything has to be cute, but also I'm old and I want
00:32:55
comfortable shoes. So I feel like the Neptunes are the perfect answer to that. Yeah, I love how cushy they are. They're like, they go with everything. They're really cute,
