Author: Our True Crime Podcast August 10, 2026 Duration: 1:26:08
In this special episode, Jen and Cam talk with Jackie and Jenna from Stop, Who Does That?! about the tragic and frustrating murder of Joy Hayward. After checking into a hotel room following an argument with her boyfriend, Joy Hayward was found strangled in her bathroom bathtub. What seemed like an isolated yet horrifying crime took a dramatic turn when DNA evidence linked her killer to a nearby attempted sexual assault just months later. Despite composite sketches, a matching DNA profile, and a $25,000 reward, Joy's killer remains unidentified and at large. Make sure you subscribe to Jenna and Jackie's podcast Stop, Who Does That?!

There's a whole world of strange and unsettling stories that rarely make the headlines, and that's exactly where you'll find Our True Crime Podcast. Each episode digs into one of those bizarre, lesser-known cases from any corner of the globe, stories that often defy easy explanation. Hosts Jen and Cam guide you through these peculiar narratives with a genuine sense of respect for those involved, balancing the darker details with their own conversational chemistry and a bit of well-timed humor. You might even get a smidge of song along the way, because real life, especially the strange parts, rarely follows a single tone. This isn't just a retelling of facts; it's a shared exploration of the oddities hidden within human behavior and society. Tuning into this podcast feels like pulling up a chair with two friends who have a knack for finding the most compelling, offbeat tales. You'll hear the careful research, the thoughtful discussions, and the personal touch that Jen and Cam bring to every story, making even the most obscure case feel immediate and fascinating. If you're looking for a true crime experience that ventures far beyond the usual cases and does so with character and heart, you've found it.
