Episode 3: What else can they add?

Lets finally be done with Mr Billy Bullshi*t, AKA Ted Bundy. In this episode, we look at the story when its is told by women. We'll look at an episode of the My Favorite Murder podcast, the brilliant documentary series from Trish Wood, Falling for a Killer, and we'll finish up with a more detailed look at Bailey Sarian's Murder, Mystery and Makeup series, and her episode on Ted. 

We'll explore the story when it is told with empathy, grief, and with a little more respect for the women directly connected to the story. 

You can find Falling for a Killer on Prime Video; My Favorite Murder in all the usual podcast places, and Bailey Sarian's channel is over on YouTube. 

Edit: That interview I mention with Bailey Sarian in The Guardian... it's not The Guardian! It was with BBC News. Linked below.
