CI: A church poisoning, a boat sinking, teen orgies and a face slap

Hosts Kevin Flynn and Rebecca Lavoie, from Partners in Crime Media, have a simple but compelling ritual: they sit down with a different special guest for each episode of this ...These Are Their Stories: The Law & Order Podcast to dissect a specific installment from the sprawling franchise. Their conversations zero in on those iconic "ripped-from-the-headlines" plots from *Law & Order*, *SVU*, and *Criminal Intent*, examining how real-world events were twisted into television drama. You’ll hear them break down the courtroom strategies, debate the detectives' methods, and share behind-the-scenes trivia, all while appreciating why this series remains, as they put it, the definitive original of police procedurals. The discussion is always deep, often funny, and fueled by a genuine fan’s perspective on the nuances that make each episode memorable. Tuning into this podcast feels like joining a lively, well-informed debate among friends who just happen to be obsessed with the gavel’s bang and the suspect’s confession. It’s a dedicated space for anyone who has ever argued about a verdict or wondered about the real story behind a fictional case.
