The Last Meal Podcast

(09) Connecticut

Anyone up for a witch hunt? Just kidding. Everyone executed in this one was guilty.

(08) Melissa Turner

This one is completely different than anything I've done before. It's not a death penalty case. The perpetrator didn't even get a life sentence. Thanks to my friend Donnie, I got some insight into the world of horror movies, cosplay, and a psychopath he went to school with. This is the story of Melissa Turner and her fall from grace into a prison cell. The full interview can be found on Rumble.

(07) Colorado

Today we're taking a trip to the land of legal weed, tent cities, and vast wilderness. No, not California. The other one. The Centennial State. The history of the death penalty here is pretty all over the place, as it is in most states who have abolished it. This episode has a little bit of everything, including a female murderer.

(06) California

This state is well known for a lot of things, and serial killers are one of them. Today I'll be talking about two lesser-known serial killers from the Golden State, as well as a man who is "infamous" in some circles.

(05) Arkansas

Arkansas is an interesting place. Full of natural wonders, diamonds, and Wal-Marts. Oh, and a lot of really disgusting crimes.

(04) Condemned Women

This is a totally new thing we're doing today. All about women who have gotten the death penalty. And no, I didn't just go for Aileen Wuornos. She's been done to death, no pun intended. This one is pretty interesting, so buckle up!

Hell is a wonderful place full of old people and Canadians. Lot of gross crimes down there. I'm pretty sure it has everything to do with that miserable heat.

Many people come to the last frontier to escape society and get into nature. Criminals are no different. They just do it for more sinister reasons.

Today we're venturing down south for some comfort food and horrible murders. Southern hospitality ain't a thing here.
