Where to Start
The Girl In The Picture
Sara and Danny are back this week to talk about Netflix’s documentary, ‘Girl in the Picture,’ the unimaginable story of Tonya Dawn Hughes’ kidnapping and murder. Tonya (aka Sharon Marshall aka Suzanne Sevakis) perished in the hospital after being found on the side of the road with severe head trauma. The story unravels from there—every time you think you get the picture, there’s another layer to the lie! And, what’s the deal with her father, fugitive Franklin Floyd? Or is it her husband? Wait, he pimped her out as a stripper? Wait, he's not even her father? He kidnapped her son? Confusing we know! Finally, Sara and Danny wrap things up with the game, Girl in the Moving Picture, where they’re asked to match women characters to the movies they appeared in. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Questions Surrounding Delia Owens (Where The Crawdads Sing)
This week, Sara and Danny are back to cover the story of Delia Owens, the author of best-selling book turned movie Where The Crawdads Sing. They talk about Owens' involvement in battles against poachers in Zambia, which allegedly turned murderous in the 90's. They also talk about parallels that the book shares with the real life story, and Delia's family's connection to the events. To end the show, they test their knowledge on infamously poor book turned movies adaptations that missed the mark.
Our Reviews
Love you guys so much. The content and commentary is spot on. I love crime but I neeeed the comedy mixed in because I’m a Scorpio and my only sense of humor is dark.
Every Monday I listen to NATCP and I feel like I am catching up with friends talking about crime and conspiracies over coffee.
It’s —-not another—- true crime podcast! It’s not the same as others (which I also like). This is TRULY like doing a rundown of a case with your friends sitting around. The hosts are great and hilarious! The fan base is as well.
Think of Jordana and Dr. Naomi as your BFF and your therapist, sitting side-by-side at the brunch table trying to help you get through your problems. Because sometimes we really need advice from people with no skin in the game. And let’s face it, your friends can’t stand to hear that story one more time.
