The Last Meal Podcast

(19) Iowa

Still stuck in the midwest, in another state that no longer executes people. There's not much to do out here besides abuse substances and commit crimes, apparently.

(18) Indiana

This one will leave you wondering how some people can oppose the death penalty. The midwest has the most brutal ones. You can't change my mind.

(17) Illinois

Home of the windy city, and a man named John Wayne Gacy. Today we'll be diving into more than just daily shootings and killer gay clowns.

(16) Treason

What some may consider a victimless crime, but still punishable by death. This episode has more history than I ever intended. Many different countries used to put people down for going against the gov'ment.

(15) Idaho

Another one close to Utah on the map. Some absolutely horrendous crimes have taken place up in Idaho. They're like Utah-lite. As of July 1st, 2023, Idaho now offers the firing squad as an option for the condemned. I wonder if anyone will opt for that.

(14) Hawaii

Y'all think the south is racist? Take a step inside 1930s Hawaii and your mind will be blown. There's a lot more to this state than pineapples and volcanoes.

(13) Georgia

Headed back down south for some capital punishment, supreme court rulings, and a guy who's been sitting on death row for nearly 50 years.

(12) F*ck Around and Find Out

Self-defense is an inalienable right that we have as humans. Some governments choose to limit how their people can defend themselves, but thankfully the US is not among those. This episode is proof of human resilience and courage.
**I recorded this on a very unpleasant day in my life. I am okay now. I think things are going to turn around. Keep me in your thoughts.**

(11) Florida

This one is my favorite so far. Florida man gets into all kinds of shenanigans. This episode has a little bit of everything.

(10) Delaware

The First State, and my 10th episode. This one is all over the place. Did y'all know that the last state in the US to hang a man was Delaware? I'll be telling you all about his case.
