I have made several changes to our book club dates, which are as follows:
1. We will now be holding our first movie discussion on June 28, 2023 at 6 pm PT. The movie will be: The Silence of the Lambs. Because the book we were going to discuss has been difficult to obtain in a timely manner, I have substituted that time slot with our first mov...
2023-06-20 03:32:51 +0000 UTC View PostHello HTC Book Club Members:
The book for June 2023 will be Dangerous Lunatics by Brett Kahr, which is a broad, introductory examination of forensic psychology/psychiatry by a forensic psychologist. It is a relatively quick, but hopefully interesting, read that I anticipate will spark some worthwhile discussions when we meet on June 28, 2023 at 6 pm PT. It appears Amazon may have st...

Have any of you watched Shiny Happy People on Prime? This is Lauren, I'm in Miami and just finished. It touched on numerous things a guest on our show discussed with me at the end of 2021, when Josh Duggar's guilty verdict came down. Shellie brings up Bill Gothard and IBLP- two main subjects in the film. We wanted to revisit the episode.
There are ZERO spoilers in ...

John shares how he became interested in true crime, and we follow this with the story of how we met and fell in love - a question we've been asked many times.
