Stranger Danger Ep. 2

Stranger Danger Ep. 2

Author: It’s About Damn Crime May 15, 2017 Duration: 28:56
That's right! It's time for another Stranger Danger episode! DISCLAIMER: This weeks episode contains a listener's story that may be hard for some to hear. If you are not comfortable with serious REAL life situations, this one might not be for you. We also have an AC/DC related Stranger Danger because anything in this world is possible. Listen as Justine's dating life takes a turn for the worse when she gets an audio message about a certain body part being murdered and oh, Brittney has lost her mind on wine and might be a little slurry. Enjoy!

You might think you've heard every major true crime story out there, but there's a whole other layer of narratives that rarely get the spotlight. That's where It's About Damn Crime comes in, hosted by Brittney and Justine. This podcast deliberately shifts the focus to cases involving people of color, stories that are too often overlooked by mainstream coverage. Their conversations feel like sitting down with two friends who are equally frustrated by the gaps in true crime media and deeply committed to bringing these important accounts to light. Each episode digs into a specific case, weaving discussion with analysis that sits at the intersection of society, culture, and the true crime genre itself. Given their lens on film and TV reviews, Brittney and Justine also bring a sharp eye for how these stories are portrayed-or more often, not portrayed-in popular media. Listening means hearing cases that are likely unfamiliar, presented with a blend of empathy, research, and candid commentary. It’s a necessary correction to the typical true crime playlist, offering depth and perspective that challenge the standard formula. If your true crime rotation feels repetitive, this podcast provides a vital, engaging alternative.
