Cold Blooded "Hero" - Early, Iowa

Hey, I've had some of the best lobsters of my life from the back of some guy's pickup truck 😆 that's Maine for ya

IN-TA-NET 😂😂😂😂😂 I met my husband on the internet too before it was cool. We have an 18 yr old and been married for 15 years.

Now I want a STM koozie.

The video of the waffle House worker blocking a chair that's thrown at her like it's WWE immediately comes to mind lmao. She was about that life hahaha.

Iowa has 14 “worlds largest” things btw

Wow. That lady is dangerous! Glad she ended up where she belongs.

Uhhhh. My name.... 🤪

Never have a combo gun safe.. always have a key or biometric lock.. trying to remember and input a combo in the stressful moment of chaos can cost you your life

The old Internet chatrooms just remind me of Kip meeting his girlfriend in Napoleon Dynamite 😂 we couldn't afford a computer back in the 90s. Tracy is just a huge liar. I don't believe there ever was a second "intruder" and Tracy planted the pink notebook.

Hubby and I met online in 2000 and we are still together, EVERYONE told us it was a bad idea back then 🤣

I love Jimmie’s inevitable “Are they at least hot?!”

Excellent Boston accent 😂

Pro tip: for skin cancers, get it removed by a plastic surgeon. They aren’t afraid to go as deep and wide as needed to get it all bc they know they can fix the wound.

Seeing as it's not "Small Town Self Defense", I was eagerly waiting for the twist

Go Bears

It works sometimes—I met my husband on Yahoo personals in 1999 and we’re still together. 🤷‍♀️

Leave Doug Flutie out of this.

Marshmallow.... guys.... popcorn glue = melted marshmallows

My vote for this episode’s best line is James describing the difference between STM and Dateline: “We get to fuck off; Keith Morrison can’t do that.”

OMG so excited for the Kouri richins bonus!!!!!! THANK YOU GIYS!!;;

(1) Whaddya wanna bet that if she'd let the frame job go abd essentially treated it like a tragic accident of him trying to stop a home invasion and her confusing him for someone else, that it'd still be unsolved (2) I bet, while part of Burt knows the truth, he 100% believes the story now. He's probably retold it to himself so many times that it's rewritten

Schwan’s guy 100% mine was a redhead ❤️

Ah, don't do Doug Flutie like that! #gobills

This was one of the best cases I’ve heard in years… so may twists and turns

“I met ha on the intanet” 😂😂😂

How can you have a festival featuring cow pie bingo and not have Ludacris?

Sensing a new shirt in the merch shop, “Don’t buy crab legs from a truck!”

Amazing episode guys. Well done. She’s bloody diabolical and I couldn’t shake the thought that she was somehow going to get off on appeal right up until the end.

She was trying to say the pedophile was the 2nd person they never found. Statute of Limitations was gone so they couldn't charge him. Only problem there is he'd still get charged with murder of the kid, he was "in the car on the way to the liquor store."

James what the hell is going on with your teeth man i havent been in 16 years youre scaring me boss

Was she trying to get the pedophile to say he was the "accomplice"? Like trying to tell him he wouldn't get time since the statute of limitations on burglary would have passed already?

Wooooooooooooooooo

Laughed so loud at frozen penis I woke the dogs

The Schwan’s man was involved in scandal in my small town in rural west Texas. All of my mom’s friends would talk about how handsome he was. Ran off with a pastor’s wife.

Tracy probably told Mary about the notebook hoping she'd tell the cops so her ex husband would get in trouble, since the cops never brought the notebook up. She told her to forget about to make it seem like she didn't want her to mention it.

No no, dinner is lunch, supper is the evening meal. This confused me so much as a child moving from CA to the Midwest.

Maybe she was offering up her kids as payment for the hit, she's is a twisted one

In Illinois some of us call cornhole, bags. It just sounds better 😂

Iowa native here, and I’ve been waiting for this one having grown up 15 minutes from Early, IA.

My papaw hosted a cow drop at the VFW in town and the cow got loose, then our town let him do it again the next year and the same thing happened😂

I met my wife on the computer haha. So did my brother on the same site and he actually did marry an Australian lmao. I only got noticed because I have a unique full name. Okcupid shout out lol. Dated for 10 years been married for 1!

There was a bonus episode way back in the day where Jimmie read the story and I thought it was a very fun episode. I imagine there's a reason you haven't done it since, but would be happy to see you all do it again.

I live about 60 miles from Early. It’s does suck.

The bars in that area go to Sac City and get their booze from Sac Liquors. Honest!

It's still mind-blowing to me that human beings choose to live in fucking Iowa.

I’m so happy they’re gonna cover the Kori Richins!! I literally got sucked into the trial on day 7 when one of my subscribers told me about the forensic accountant (who was AMAZING)! Yayyyyyy

I love remembering it's Thursday! <3

I told my little brother we found him in the hospital trash can, so he threw a fork at me.

Schwans pizza is the cheap Tony's pizzas in a different package. Made in Salina Ks.

Pretty spot on south side Chicago accent, James!

I’ve seen this case covered on sooo many true crime shows—but only my boys J & J cover it deep-style!

I had a Dish Network and DirecTV installation business in the late 90s /early 2000s. I would be in people's houses for hours,sometimes with them following me closely, and would try to have a conversation. It frequently came up that one of the partners in the relationship moved from far away, and 90 percent of the time when the couple met online they would be very embarrassed to say it. And they frequently said the same thing about not telling parents or close friends /family they met online. Haven't thought about that in a while. Thanks for the memory

Apparently I'm an old lady because I used to LOVE Mary Higgins Clark! 😂 ... I'm 34.

If you want to deal with the corpse Italian style, bury it deep dish.

I pulled up the town on Google Maps and the only restaurant they have (besides gas station pizza) is a Cuban restaurant, which is super odd

YAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!

Yeah!!!!

First. Wooooo!!! Love these two!!
