    EPISODE 100: The Murder of Andrea DelVesco
    Apr 2 2025
    It started like any other early morning in Westwood—quiet, a little hazy, the air still heavy with sleep. But by the time the sun rose over UCLA’s sorority row on September 21, 2015, the neighborhood was in chaos. An apartment was on fire. A young woman was missing. And within hours, it became clear—this wasn’t an accident. It was a murder, hidden behind the smoke. This is the story of Andrea DelVesco—a 21-year-old UCLA senior whose life was taken in the most violent, senseless way. A story about how it happened, who failed her, and how a red Snuggie and a set of speakers unraveled it all. xoxo, Margot 💀✨😘 Come for the true crime, stick around for the life updates, and—of course—enjoy the chaos🌵🩷 Don't forget to subscribe, leave a review, and follow us on social media @DeathXSouthwest for all the behind-the-scenes fun.

  • BONUS: FROM THE FARM TO BIG PHARMA

    BONUS: FROM THE FARM TO BIG PHARMA
    Mar 19 2025
    🚨 BONUS EPISODE ALERT! 🚨 Okay, so there’s no true crime in this episode—unless we count what Big Pharma is doing to people who rely on GLP-1 medications (which, honestly, might be criminal). But first, let’s talk about something beautiful, life-changing, and deeply moving—The Biggest Little Farm. If you haven't seen this documentary, stop what you're doing and watch it immediately. I had the absolute honor of speaking to the creator and star, John Chester, for Jim Breuer’s podcast (bc Jim let me jump in thankfully), and WOW. This documentary wrecked me in the best way possible, and I can’t wait to tell you all about it. Then, we take a hard left into my current rage spiral over the crackdown on GLP-1’s. As of today—March 19—compounded versions of meds like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound are officially off the table, leaving thousands (millions?) of people, including me, completely screwed. I break down why this matters, why it’s infuriating, and how I ended up talking to NPR about it. So if you want to hear me go from emotional documentary praise to full-blown righteous fury in under an hour—this one’s for you. Enjoy the chaos. 🎧 xoxo, Margot 💀✨😘 THE BIGGEST LITTLE FARM: https://www.biggestlittlefarmmovie.com/ NPR Article: https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2025/03/19/nx-s1-5333230/zepbound-tirzepatide-compounding-fda Want more DXSW?
