    Bonus episode: The Disappearance of Amy Lynn Bradley
    Sep 6 2025
    In the early morning hours of March 24, 1998, as Royal Caribbean's newest showstopper, Rhapsody of the Seas glided quietly through the dark, vast ocean nearing the shores of Curaçao, the first streaks of sunlight broke across the horizon. Inside the cramped cabin of room 8564, Ron and Iva Bradley slept alongside their twenty-one-year-old son, Brad. Ron startled awake at 6 am for reasons he’s never been able to explain. His wife dozed next to him, and he could just make out Brad’s shape on the pull-out sofa in the dim light. But he wondered where his twenty-three-year-old daughter Amy was? He peeked out onto the balcony and spotted only her sandals sitting beneath the chair where he had last seen her, staring out at the endless sea. Believing she had gone to watch the sunrise, Ron rose from bed and decided to join her. He searched the ship, but Amy was nowhere to be found. What began as an ordinary morning soon dissolved into a nightmare—a mystery that would haunt Iva, Ron, and Brad for the next twenty-seven years.

  • Betty and Dan Broderick - Part 2 of 3

    Betty and Dan Broderick - Part 2 of 3
    Sep 1 2025
    Betty and Dan Broderick were a golden couple in San Diego, CA. He, a powerful attorney; she, a devoted, fun-loving wife and mother of four. But when Dan turned 40 he became a cliche. He bought a Corvette, fell for his much younger legal assistant, and left Betty after 16 years of marriage. Their bitter six-year divorce became the most contentious in San Diego County history, a battle over money, custody, and control. On November 5, 1989, it ended in shocking violence when Betty walked into the couple’s home and killed Dan and his new wife, Linda, as they slept, turning a local divorce drama into one of the most infamous true crime cases of the century.

    Carol Kennedy and Steve DeMocker - Part 2
    Aug 18 2025
    Carol Kennedy was a therapist, an artist, and a devoted mother of two. In July 2008, just five weeks after her divorce was finalized, she was brutally bludgeoned to death in her Prescott, Arizona home. Suspicion quickly turned to her ex-husband, Steve DeMocker — a charismatic but financially troubled stockbroker who was deep in debt. With no eyewitnesses, no murder weapon, and a complex trail of circumstantial evidence, prosecutors faced an uphill battle. What followed was a years-long legal saga filled with delays, courtroom drama, and emotional testimony. Through it all, Steve and Carol’s daughters stood by their father, convinced of his innocence — even as the state pushed for conviction.

    In July 2023, the small, rural town of Leongatha in Victoria, Australia was thrust into the spotlight after a family lunch ended in unthinkable tragedy. Erin Patterson, a quiet, separated mother of two, prepared a homemade meal for her in-laws, but within days, three were dead and one was left clinging to life. Was it a heartbreaking accident or something far more sinister? In this episode, we discuss complicated family dynamics, growing suspicion, and lingering questions surrounding a lunch that devastated a family and shocked not just Australia, but the world.Today's snack: Mushroom tartSupport us on Patreon: https://patreon.com/LoveMarryKillSources:The Mushroom Cook PodcastThe Mushroom Trialhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFRwU47pKic 60 Minutes Australiahttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/07/world/australia/mushroom-poisoning-trial-verdict.html?searchResultPosition=1https://www.rbg.vic.gov.au/science/herbarium/death-cap/https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c77n2yykzrjohttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdx554n1x0wohttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdx5e9dldqwohttps://people.com/woman-accused-killing-three-with-poisonous-meal-says-exotic-mushrooms-have-more-flavor-court-11747054https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g8zr16y21ohttps://apnews.com/article/australia-poisonous-mushroom-murder-c0e545567d6bdccc266f342a2ee7b192https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g8zr16y21ohttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdx554n1x0wohttps://www.news.com.au/national/victoria/courts-law/black-tarp-installed-around-mushroom-cook-erin-pattersons-home-before-guilty-verdict-reached/news-story/efb14aaa35823669e8690be9bc6cfa72https://www.news.com.au/national/victoria/courts-law/erin-patterson-trial-exhibits-and-pictures-shown-to-the-jury-released-by-victorian-supreme-court/news-story/1aaee1b5445fa0f69740beccd207004dhttps://theqldr.com.au/crime-law-and-justice/2025/05/22/patterson-22/https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14231137/The-deadly-poison-bodies-three-women-killed-horror-Christmas-dinner-police-set-dig-months-dead-husband-woman-prepared-food-poisoned.htmlhttps://www.kpbs.org/news/international/2025/05/02/an-australian-woman-is-on-trial-for-murder-by-toxic-mushrooms-heres-what-to-know?utm_source=chatgpt.comhttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14888065/Details-emerge-PARTY-Erin-Patterson-threw-night-arrest-mysterious-break-ins-Leongatha-home-handcuffed.htmlhttps://www.swissinfo.ch/eng/society/shroom-service_fewer-mushroom-identification-centres-more-poisonings/45228910https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/29/health/mushrooms-poisoning-foraging/index.htmlhttps://7news.com.au/news/inmate-claims-she-fell-ill-after-eating-meal-prepared-by-mushroom-murderer-erin-patterson--c-19283609https://thenightly.com.au/australia/victoria/erin-patterson-dr-chris-webster-reveals-why-he-faces-losing-his-job-after-speaking-out-about-mushroom-killer-c-19306978
