Episode Title: Kouri Richins Trial: The PI Who Cracked the Case (Part 1) Kouri Richins was convicted of murdering her husband, Eric, with five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in a Moscow Mule she made for him. But while the world was focused on her children’s book about grief, Tyrella was focused on the three weeks of absolute courtroom chaos that led to the verdict. In Part 1 of our "Best of the Trial" series, we aren’t just rehashing the timeline—we’re talking about the witnesses who actually made the case. From a Private Investigator with a GoPro and a fused neck who became the defense's worst nightmare, to the heartbreaking testimony of a best friend who realized she was actually a target. The Quick Reset: The Moscow Mule, the $2 million life insurance policy, and the book that started it all. Todd Gabler, PI: Why a man with 34 years of defense experience ended up being the State’s star witness. The "Sexting" Cross: How the defense tried to smear Eric Richins, and why it completely backfired. The Forensic Accountant: Breaking down the -$1.6 million net worth and the "death exit ramp." Chelsea Barney: The heavy cost of a 20-year friendship with a fraudster.

You might remember Tyrella and Nikita from their previous work as the Killer Queens. After eight years and hundreds of cases covered, their perspective has fundamentally shifted, leading to a thoughtful evolution of the true crime conversation. This new chapter, titled This Feels Criminal: A True Crime Podcast (Formerly Killer Queens), is for an audience that has matured alongside them, moving beyond the straightforward narrative to ask deeper, more difficult questions about the stories we think we know. Grounded in a shared history of growing up with Dateline and the early internet, the hosts now approach each case with a deconstructed viewpoint, examining the societal and human layers often glossed over. The podcast delves into the historical context surrounding crimes, exploring how time and place shape tragedy. Listeners will hear nuanced discussions that prioritize perspective over sensationalism, focusing on the complex "why" behind the "what." It’s a natural progression for hosts and audience alike, offering a more considered space within a crowded genre. Each episode of this podcast builds on a foundation of extensive research and lived experience, aiming to understand the full weight of the story, because there’s always more to it.
