    High Crime Pod

    Where there's smoke... there's true crime. Hi, we’re Kayla and Helayne! And we like true crime. And weed. We're fans of weed. Look, we all have anxiety, among other health and mental health issues, and who's to judge what helps you get through this trippy, wild thing we call life, right? For us, weed is medicine, and honestly, it can help you chill tf out and chat about one of your favorite (and yet, macabre) topics without going into a full, anxious meltdown and googling how expensive retractable steel covers for windows are. So whether you smoke or not, join us on this wild ride through murder, mysteries, and maybe even some supernatural goodies. We know it's a dark topic, but don't worry, we'll make you laugh, too. They seem kind of like mutually exclusive topics - true crime and comedy. But who doesn't love a good comedic relief? We know we do -- and we hope to be that for you. Well, hope to chat with you soon. Email info@highcrimepod.com to share your true crime stories, questions, comments, concerns, or even your favorite way to indulge in the devil's lettuce. Later, buds!

    28. Adventures at the OG Cannabis Cafe

    28. Adventures at the OG Cannabis Cafe

    Kayla and Shannon from Nightmarish Conjurings grab brunch at the OG Cannabis Cafe, get a tour, and go over the wild menu with you. They also talk about Black Christmas, toxic masculinity, and the darker side of being a film critic (as a woman). Sorry for the rough sound - we were in an active cafe on a Saturday and... we don't have the super fancy equipment yet. Mini episodes to come to make up for all of the lateness and delays. 

    Thank you so much for such a good year so far, buds. We appreciate the five-star reviews and all of the love you have shared. Keep sharing the pod & leaving five-star reviews, and we'll keep trying to put out the best content we can!

    27. Marry Me, B*tch!

    27. Marry Me, B*tch!

    Kayla and Helayne talk about the Selfie Killer, a truly twisted individual, who was let down by the American healthcare system in a big way. You can also expect: rants about the importance of care for mental health, crying over Baby Yoda, raging against the patriarchy, and maybe even a song. 

    As usual, thank you SO MUCH for your continued support. We love you. If you haven't yet, show us you love us, too, with a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Thank you kindly!

    26. Danksgiving

    Kayla and Helayne talk about some grisly Thanksgiving-related crimes. Don't trust anyone - even your relatives! We're just kidding - Or are we? As we enter this holiday season, keep your mental health in mind. Don't do anything that's going to cause you duress. Your family and friends will understand. Self care now instead of murder later.

    As always, thank you for your support! Keep the five-star reviews coming, they really mean a lot to us. We are THANKful for them.

    22. Putting The Cute In Exe-cute-ion

    Hey, buds! It's been a while - we've been having some STRUGGLES the last couple weeks, which is a bit worrying since Mercury in retrograde starts today so not a great sign that things will get any easier. But anyway, we're here, and we're giving you a special bonus Halloween episode because that's the spooky bitches we are. 

    On this episode we chose a creepy story - the terrible tale of the man who killed Halloween. You know all those urban legends about people putting dangerous things in candy? Well, yeah, there's a TINY morsel of truth to that. So, listen up, my friends, because this is about to get weird.
