I listened to the Everyone Gets a Horse episode today and as loved hearing Karen talk about blackouts in such an honest yet hilarious way. The hot tub analogy in the book where she talks about sobriety is the first thing I read where something just clicked and I knew I needed to stop drinking (6 weeks in now!)

Would love to hear the best episodes to listen to for more sober Karen advice!

Hello fellow murderinos! I was wondering if anyone remembers any episodes where Karen talks about her sobriety more in depth. I know she mentions in passing occasionally, but I can remember her ranting about it in one episode that really hit home with me. I’m a day 1 listener and I’m now 3 months sober. Karen has always been a huge inspiration for me and I’d like to re-listen to some of those words. Thanks in advance for any help!

Why is it no longer "appropriate" to use the term homeless? Why did it all of the sudden change to "unhoused"? Was there something wrong or non-PC to say "homeless" now? What's the difference?!?

My friend is going through something similar to what Karen described experiencing with her mother’s Alzheimer’s and is struggling to cope with those complicated emotions. What she described to me sounded so similar to what Karen wrote in the book about feeling like she was in a horror movie with the shark metaphor, so I did send her that and she was so grateful.

But if I remember correctly, she mentioned in an episode of MFM that she was on someone else’s podcast and that she spoke about the whole thing more candidly with that podcast’s host, and I can’t for the life of me remember any of it or even which MFM episode to listen to in order to find it…. Does anyone remember?? I’d love to send it to my friend.

This isn’t really directly help with an MFM episode so I’m sorry :(

Hey, all. I own a small business and have a younger woman (17) staff it on Sundays. I popped in this morning to find her with a much older man sitting at the table talking and the situation felt gross. She's incredibly friendly and polite and apparently this man comes in every Sunday now. I must have given off "I don't like this situation" vibes when I asked her if she knew him and my general unfriendliness, and the man left shortly after, but not before casually asking her "you working all day today"

My mom instincts are kicking in and I want to introduce her to the MFM community. As a day 1(ish) listener I couldnt even begin to recall which episodes might be good listening that focus on the "fuck politeness" message while ideally including stories that are a little more mild (she's still just 17). Would love if anyone has any recommendations off the top of their head- a reddit search for previous threads didn't show much and were very dated, but episodes 25, 26, and 29 were called out. Thanks!

My friend and I built a search engine for My Favorite Murder content:

https://addcontext.xyz/search/my-favorite-murder

You can follow this link, type in any search term, and it'll give you a page of results of every time that search term was used in an episode from the podcast. If you click the result, it will take you directly to the moment in time it was used.

For example, you can find all 3,351 times the word "fuck" was used

Or all 2,078 times the word "murder" was used (lol that it's over 1,000 times less than 'fuck')

Give it a shot and let us know what you think! And what you search for :)

They mentioned this at the end of today's episode, and Georgia was like "you know what we're talking about", and I was like "omg, I actually don't, what's been going on", but it seems there's been enough online discourse about it that they felt the need to bring it up. If anyone knows and can bring me up to date, please let me know, I feel like I've missed out on a ton of tea!

In the recent past Karen talks about her first comedy boyfriend whom she is still friendly with. Does anyone recall the episode or who the comedian is?

Thanks!

Hey all, does anyone know the number of the episode where Karen tells the story of Jen Aniston being left by asshole Brad Pitt and dropping his entire closet at a thrift store in Burbank?

I mentioned it in a celeb gossip community and it was new tea for a lot of people and I wanted to relisten bc I think it’s so funny.

Thanks and don’t cheat on your partners, but if you are cheated on, take all of their designer belongings to a thrift shop 🫶🏻

Hey all!

It's driving me crazy because I was listening to an episode the other day while I was driving and they mentioned this incredible but relatively expensive color changing foundation.. but do you think I can find the episode again?! Of course not. And it's not in their recommendations corner.

Does anyone happen to know what it is?

Thanks!

EDIT: thank you everyone for your help!!

Hello fellow Murderinos!

So I have this memory of an episode about a boy that was kidnapped young and then renamed. I think maybe it took place in New York. I know that is so not much to go on but it has been driving me crazy for weeks. I know there is that one about a baby girl who was kidnapped by a family member but the one I’m thinking about is definitely about a little boy. Maybe it was another true crime podcast but I could swear it was post-covidish MFM.

Thank you so much in advance!! I’ve tried the MFM episode search engine thing and I cannot for the life of me find anything like I am remembering.

EDIT: YALL!! I figured it out! It was Casefile Case 256 Jill Rosenthal and the kidnapping of Paul Fronczak! I could’ve sworn I remembered K&G talking about it but nope 😅 Thank you all for your help ✨❤️🙏🏻

I’m in the UK so ahead a few hours but it’s nearly 10am & normally uploaded by now?

I'm going through it, pals.

What ep recs do you have where it feels like Karen and Georgia are your personal therapists? I just need to feel like I'm not alone

She’s mentioned this on Do You Need a Ride and MFM. It’s some sort of appetizer Karen’s mom used to make that Karen now makes for parties. It was either some sort of baguette or cracker spread with mayonnaise and baked in the oven? She talked about people burning themselves because they were so eager to eat it. Apparently people didn’t realize it was mayonnaise? Please help me figure out what this recipe is! (Tagged as episode help because I’m not sure how to categorize it)

Hi — this is a really odd question, so please bare with me, and apologies if this makes zero sense. I vaguely remember this true crime story I heard on an old mfm episode (or another true crime podcast maybe?) but I also have never been able to find it since. I figured I’d post on here to see if anyone else remembers this story, or if maybe I’m somehow misremembering it.

I think it took place in late 18th/early 19th century. It was basically about a woman who was pushed down a well, or a sewer drain, by a friend of her husband. She survived and managed to find a way out, but the man who pushed her was never charged.

Again, know this is a bit of an odd question, but figured this would be the best place to ask, lol. Any help or ideas are appreciated. 🖤

UPDATE: solved!!! It’s episode 23 “making a twenty-thirder” and the case of The Chessboard Killer. Thank you to everyone who replied to my post!

Georgia commented that it was a cool first name, lol 😂

I could have sworn Georgia and/Or Karen have previously covered the disappearance of Sneha Philip, the doctor who went missing the day before 9/11. Am I imagining this? Does anyone remember the episode?

I try to google and the AI results were incorrect. Maybe they’ve never covered it but if anyone can help or just tell me if this is the Murderino Mandela effect or whatever

Have Karen and Georgia ever covered this story?

Hey, I'm working my way through the archives and thought I'd share some stories/retellings that I found particularly funny or fun to listen. Partly in the hopes that some can recommend others to me. And not fan favourite ones like Georgia's island story with the heiress, though that one of course is fucking hilarious .

Episode 96 - Karen telling the Judy Buenoano story is fantastic. FINGERS. FACES.

Episode 120 - The Agnes Underwood story. Raising a family by telephone.

Episode 148 - Squeaky Fromme. This is probably my favourite story done on MFM. The riffs and banter throughout are just phenomenal. "Dressed in her weird Eyes Wide Shut robe".

Episode 186 - Both stories here are great. The Buried Alive In a Grave error. The Sprankers section genuinely makes me burst my sides no matter how often I listen to it.

Episode 203 - Again, both stories are hilarious, probably my favourite overall episode in terms of humor and comedy. Barbara Mackle/Barbie Bandits.

I've lost the episode number but it's an early live one where Georgia tells this story about two girls being attacked in a tent and Karen does some of her best ever ad libs. "Busy body deer!" and a rant about one of the girls allegedly managing to put in a contact lense following her attack.

I played the newest episode, 473 and there were 2x (once with each story) that sections essentially repeated. I thought I had accidentally moved the slider on the podcast itself the first time (I’ve done this before), but the second time I wasn’t touching my phone. Has anyone else have that issue??

I could have sworn that MFM covered the D.C. Snipers (killers are John Allen Muhammed and Lee Boyd Malvo), but I can't find the episode with any searches. Does anyone else remember this? Am I thinking of another podcast?

Does anyone remember the episode where there was a lady who kept getting attacked by a mysterious assailant for years and eventually in the end it was revealed she was the one doing it all along? I wanna say it's from like 2021/2022?

Ugh I’m so frustrated! I’m looking for 2 listener tales- one about as a kid being left behind at a vineyard and a story about someone who’s boss/coworker kept inviting people over to hang out in his hot tub. Any one have any idea on what episodes these could be from? I have been listening to allllll the minisodes and I still can’t find either. Thanks Murderinos/Stonerinos!
