It's Karen's turn in the kitchen and she is on a mission to bake her son's birthday cake. As she constructs a gorgeous and delicious Blueberry Pound Cake with an Almond Glaze, Anne lends her perspective on the senseless murders of Emily Richitelli and Ashley Altman. The sisters provide updates on some court cases they have been following, and there are British Bloody Marys involved as well!

Come for the Baking; Stay for the Murder!

The sisters are finally successful at recording the episode with actual sound! Karen tries out a recipe for Low Sugar Sweet Potato Bread and it turns out fluffy and nutty with warm spices. It would make a delicious breakfast bread! She found the recipe in a Better Homes and Garden magazine (Cut the Sugar issue) and then tweaked it to make it her own. Of course she used Killa Vanilla!
Anne unpacks the victimology of Samantha Burns and Alice Donovan and how a political decision made years later affects their families and community.
