EP 214: Essence of Ass (Feat. Kelli Brink)

It’s almost time for CrimeCon 2025, and we’re kicking things off with a wild episode featuring Kelli Brink from True Crime Sleep Stories and Missing Persons Archives! This week, we’re talking weird true crime stories, paranormal encounters, and bizarre news that only Live, Laugh, Larceny can deliver. Kelli joins Trevin and Amanda to share the only crime she’s ever committed, a sasquatch sighting, and what it’s like attending true crime conventions with the LLL crew. In our relatable dilemmas, Trevin confesses his year-long obsession with Grape-Nuts cereal—high fiber, low cool factor. Amanda recounts a wild public brawl at the zoo (and yes, there’s video this time). Kelli brings a chilling camping story that takes a creepy turn thanks to a paranormal-sounding noise in the woods. Then, Amanda shares a fascinating sleep fact before we dive into this week’s bizarre crime headlines, including:✔ Calese Carron Crowder, California’s notorious serial butt-sniffer✔ A toddler in India who bit a cobra to death✔ A real-life cat burglar stealing underwear✔ Richard Overton’s legendary lawsuit against Anheuser-Busch for false advertising And yes—we’re sniffing out the details on why the butt-sniffer case might be one of the strangest (and funniest) crimes ever. Could his unique fetish make him the ultimate romantic? Find out as we take a big whiff of the Essence of Ass.
