Most of the Podcats made it to the mic this week to tackle a documentary with quite possibly the longest title we've ever attempted to pronounce after two cocktails. This is also a part of our new twist - PodCats After Dark. Which means we get pretty raunchy and the content is absolutely unsuitable for anyone under 18. Put on your headphones kitties.

In short: A Deadly American Marriage covers the shocking case of Jason Corbett, an Irish businessman living in North Carolina with his wife, Molly Martens. On August 2, 2015, Jason was found brutally bludgeoned to death in their bedroom. Molly and her father—oh, just a former FBI agent named Tom Martens—fully admitted to the killing… but claimed it was all in self-defense.

The documentary tries to walk a line between the two sides of the story—but let’s be honest, none of us bought what Molly was selling.

We may have leaned a little harder on the cocktails than the crime-solving this week, but you’ll still get most of the key details, a lot of laughs, and—somehow—a spontaneous lesson on squirting from one of the kitties. You’re welcome.

This episode gets a unanimous 6 out of 6 🐾🐾🐾—we showed up, we poured up, and we definitely judged Molly Martens the whole way through.

Jess and Traci are here with a couple of guests to discuss the three-part documentary This is the Zodiac Speaking, streaming on Netflix. But they all pre-gamed WAY too much so this is more like a Bad Moms podcast with hear less lots of inappropriate conversation. We caution you to keep your children out of the car when you listen to this episode. Truely, we were hammered.

If you haven't seen this yet, the documentary explores the enduring mystery of the Zodiac killer, who terrorized the Bay Area in the late 1960s. Despite being linked to at least five murders, the Zodiac was never caught. Police identified Arthur Leigh Allen as a prime suspect, but he was never charged. Allen passed away in 1992, leaving the case unsolved—but this docuseries reexamines his potential guilt through shocking new revelations from those who knew him personally.

This episode hosts just a couple of kitties - Jess and her guest T Bone. We do have to warn you that the kitties were sipping cocktails for HOURS before they got to Chowchilla so words are slurred and there is some confusion. But we did manage to get most of the story out. If none of what we said made sense, here is what the doc was all about:

CNN Films and Max covered what was truly one of the weirdest mass kidnappings in history—the Chowchilla school bus abduction. This documentary featured exclusive interviews from survivors which is what really made it amazing!

Here’s what happened: On July 15, 1976, three masked men hijacked a school bus in Chowchilla, California. They kidnapped the driver and 26 kids, stuffed them into soundproof vans, and took them to a remote quarry, where they were buried alive in an underground chamber. With barely any food or water, air running out, and the roof caving in, one brave child led a daring escape.

When the kidnappers were caught, their identities shocked everyone even more. This chilling event left deep scars on the survivors, who spent decades trying to rebuild their lives.

The doc was directed by Paul Solet.

The kitties gave Chowchilla 3 1/2 out of 4 paws 🌟🌟🌟 1/2 🐾

Just watch it yal
