EPISODE DESCRIPTION:

We tune back into the lives of our three “Prime Time Crime Time” podcasters; Charlotte reveals to her friends that she did not receive the promotion at work and Conner opens up about hanging out with his new friend, Mitchell, to which the girls express their concern. This week, Alex brings in the case of Tamla Horsford, a black woman who attended an otherwise all-white sleepover in Forsyth County, Georgia, and was found dead the next morning in the backyard. The three discuss the suspicious accounts from the sleepover attendees and raise important questions that are still trying to be answered today.

2022 Release

Conner, Charlotte and Alex have been running their true crime podcast Prime Time Crime Time since the pandemic started. They have not been very successful in securing a fan base thus far, unfortunately, so Conner offers a switch-up of sorts where they cover the rescue of Jessica McClure, the baby who fell in a well and subsequently caused the first endless news cycle in 1987. The tragic ending to the hero of this story causes our hosts to connect in ways they did not expect, and sets them up for a renewed approach in how they explore each case moving forward.

---

the [musical] Memoirs of a Murder is a multi-episodic, musical look in to three friends who run a true crime podcast. As they explore these all-too-relevant cases, they are forced to reconcile with some past trauma and their popularity skyrockets. They learn first-hand what it means to be a hero, and unfortunately, the lesson that you cannot save everyone.
