The Abduction and Murder of Daniel Morcombe

Daniel Morcombe was 13 years old when he was taken from a bus stop in Queensland Australia. Queensland was supposed to be one of the safest places to live so this absolutely rocked the community. It would be 8 years before anyone would get answers, and the man who gave the answers is one of the scariest people to walk the planet.

Morbidly Halarious

For such a horrible story, they do such a great job at keeping it light and relatable.

Absolutely amazing!

These ladies are amazingly intelligent, funny and totally my people!! This story is hard to hear as a parent, but their banter and every day folks kind of reactions that we all have make this like chatting with friends.
