It's Keith Morrison's birthday, America's birthday and possibly another whom shall remain nameless's birthday but this Dateline episode is certainly no party... There is a young woman missing on the streets of Denver, another woman jumping out of a second story window to escape a fire and another possible victim in the works as a very bad Travis is on the loose in Colorado. Keith has some incredible interviews with the heroes of this case- a stepdad of the year, a few exceptional detectives who are willing to go the extra mile and a bakery owner who is quick to notice who the real crumb is in her small business. Kimberly and Katie have some explosive revelations as well as some just plain explosions because its always a genius idea to record the night of July 4th. Find out why AGAIN everyone should be steering clear of strange white vans in this Part I, cliff-hanger, nail-biting, Hamilton-singing episode of A DATE WITH DATELINE! Official Description from NBCU: A 19-year-old disappears after a night out with her friends.

After a quick Dateline break, Kimberly and Katie are back to working through the almighty ID Network "Episodes You Shouldn't Watch Alone" list that Katie is using as a guide to the vast number of murders and mysteries available on ID.

Since the Warren Jeffs episode had teenage brides that were kind of a downer, Kimberly and Katie decided to liven things up with some good old fashioned murdery mystery with the Dateline Classic, INDISCRETION. When a young billiards-playing woman is found murdered with a #1 written on the wall above her body, is it a (literal) sign of more murders to come? Or is it just one more anomaly in a series of misguided decisions made by the dumbest duo of criminals since the Wet Bandits. How does a No Doubt/Korn concert and a mysterious not-on-the-face tattoo come into play? Why would you shop at Home Depot if you work at a Lowe’s? Is a prison themed nightclub with drink specials called "Gen Pops" terrible or just terribly clever? We’re answering some of these questions, and some we’re just chalking up to these criminals being really, really dumb. Get ready for some extra sassy Dennis quips, call a “discreet house cleaner,” and— Eureka! That’s why this episode is called "Indiscretion". Ignore Kimberly and Katie as they spend an entire episode trying to figure that out. Maybe they should stop calling criminals dumb... Please enjoy this extra special slammer episode of A Date with Dateline! Official Description from IMDB- Maryland, 2000: Heidi Bernadzikowski is stabbed.

What Happened To The Children? Spoiler Alert: We still don’t know. But we’re getting closer! The next Dateline episode on this story will hopefully have an exclamation point instead of a question mark. But in this case the punctuation is appropriate as this bizarre continuation on the Lori Vallow Daybell saga leaves us with more questions than answers. Questions such as is the ginger intern journalist not allowed to speak? Were K & K impressed with Lori’s beauty pageant b-roll? Is this episode sponsored by Nike? Is Coronavirus an omen for July 22nd’s end of time? Should Kimberly join the LDS dating app "Principalities" (its not called that)? Can Katie hire Zulema to be her professional massage therapist or will she be turned into beryllium? What the heck is going on with cousin Melanie? Would you wire tap your new bride for the FBI? Has a zombie infected your grandma or your Excel spreadsheet? You’ve got three days to find the answers to these questions before you’re “translated” and are able to perform Harry Potter spells! Put on your tinfoil hats and tune into this very special continuation of Dateline's wildest story in years.

Double Date comes early this week because something wonderful has happened. Kimberly and Katie have been blessed by the Dateline gods and sit down... well do a video call... with the one and only Sir Manky with the Hanky- Josh Mankiewicz!

This week is a departure from the ID Network and back to the namesake where it all began. It's a vintage Dateline staring the Queen Andrea Canning who is reporting on a case that sounds way too fancy for the likes of Kimberly and Katie. "Mystery at Ascot Estates" has not one but two murders involving a lovely songstress, a couple of bookies, an ancient Irish defense council and... one toilet seat that will throw everything into question.

A cop, a rabbi's son, and Keith Morrison walk into a bar...and then things get insane. When a college student is found murdered, police are forced to investigate one of their own, and Kimberly and Katie are forced to analyze the dramatic Fosse inspired lighting that is unlike anything ever seen before on Dateline and not on a Broadway stage. The reviews on the lighting were mixed, but the reviews on Kimberly and Katie butchering “All That Jazz” are sure to be in agreement. This episode also features people named Berri Bumgardner (shockingly not British), Gillis Leonard (shockingly not the worlds best Jimmy Stewart impersonator), and Morley Swingle (shockingly not a character in Yogi Bear cartoons of yore). Those are there real names. And these are their stories. BEFORE DAYLIGHT may have left K & K conflicted, but there is no doubt that this episode features the lean king Keith Morrison at his very finest.

It's time to get suspicious again... but this time is a much nicer suspicion because we are going to Canada, eh! But while the people may be nicer in the sleepy waterfront area of Cosy Cove the crime is pretty horrific. Kimberly and Katie are still working through the great ID Network "Episodes You Shouldn't Watch Alone" list and "Cosy Cove Killings", Season 1 Episode 3 from Suspicion series is another creepy crawly tale. And a very good example of why you need to keep a sharp eye on your neighbors as well as your underoo drawer. K & K try to keep everyone straight in an episode where everyone is a suspect and an escalation in crimes mean time is of the essence! Grab some poutine and butter tarts and settle in for another spooky story from ID!

Sir Mankiewicz is about break the fourth wall of THE HOUSE, where the murder of a husband outside his beloved house reveals a family living together in turmoil.

Title three from the "Episodes You Shouldn't Watch Alone" ID Network list is just as bonkers as the previous two. It's another doozy from the YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE series with the very non-frightening title "Murder Mouse". No. That's not right.... "Murder HOUSE". To this date there has yet to be a murderous mouse, that we know of. We are going back in time to a Clue-esque mansion filled with creepy classical music, booze filled rantings and a secret tucked away in an upstairs bedroom. Topics will include include: a grandma with a mysterious accent that may or may not be a Nazi, a little bit of venereal disease (ok, maybe more than a little), and another religious zealot that has somehow found a bible passage OKing his homicidal tendencies. Kimberly and Katie are prepared to Rip(van Winkle) this murderer a new one in this very very special episode of Double Coffee Doughnut Date with Dateline! Official Description from INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY: Westfield, New Jersey, an affluent suburb just outside the bustle of New York City, is home to picture-perfect homes and families alike. In 1971, in the grand home of John List and his family, a true monster hides behind the stately facade. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The most recent Friday Dateline is a repeat, so it's time to go back to school with a young Keith Morrison and a vest-less Lester to learn about the dangers of "Bad Chemistry". This vintage Dateline includes many of the old standbys- a dramatic divorce, a cranky Clovis-ian, vitriolic voicemails, and a barrel full of… not monkeys, just deep deep sadness. One young man, who is definitely NOT Joey Fatone, causes Kimberly to re-examine her own high school GPA and related achievements in life, and Katie tries to come to grips with the fact that she very well may not be smarter than a teenage murderer. Please enjoy this very very very special Central Valley edition of A Date With Dateline. Official Description from NBCU: Keith Morrison reports on a story involving a messy divorce where the husband goes missing, and police look into the wife and her young male employee.  This episode is dedicated to the one and only Ramie.

Our heroine Anita is watching those around her change slowly into monsters as she gets sicker and sicker and the wigs and makeup department's jobs get harder and harder.

Last week Dennis Murphy took us to a Lonely Road. This week he’s taking us on a Road Trip to solve the murder of a holistic doctor living in totally normal Florida, where crazy things hardley EVER happen. It's time to virtually crank some tunes and eat road snacks like cut up bananas with the skin still on and Chinese food dumplings that haven’t gotten great reviews on Yelp. Kimberely and Katie are talking about classic Dateline tropes like Walmart kill kits, Nancy Grace (Where’s the body!?!), and burner phone two packs. All that, plus, the Great Interrogation Room Shirtless Debate of 2020! What side will you land on in this moment in history? Also, TWINS! Well, kinda... Official Description from NBCU: When Dr. Teresa Sievers is found murdered in her kitchen, detectives struggle to find any leads until an unexpected tip changes everything. For the first time on national TV, the woman who helped investigators speaks out. Dennis Murphy reports: Download Best Fiends and let us know on Twitter what level you’re on! Kimberly's on 269!

What is this? You may be asking yourself. Self, why is there suddenly a second episode of a A Date with Dateline being released? Welcome to a Double Date with Dateline! In this series Kimberly and Katie will be covering not only their beloved Dateline but also various episodes plucked specially from the ID Network for your enjoyment. In Double Date the stories get scarier, the jokes get funnier and hopefully Kimberly and Katie will be able to stay on track as the episodes are a little bit shorter. Its time to take a double dip in the True Crime pond with two ladies who have no business discussing such things in great detail, but very much consider themselves to be experts (granted, amateur) on the topic. First case on the docket is from ID Network's "Episodes You Shouldn't Watch Alone" list- "A Bump in the Night" from the YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE series. Its a case you have to see (or hear) to believe about a family with an infestation of the most sinister variety. You will never look at your wall plants the same way again... Official Description from INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY: Reeling from the death of their mother, Annie and Jessica Andrews perform a séance to see if they can contact her spirit. Soon after, strange things start happening in the house. Considering joining our Patreon! The support of our sponsors and our Patroni keep this podcast free each week!

It's possible many are in need of some serious distraction, and what's more distracting than Keith Morrison, a good old fashioned murder mystery and two best friends who dissect every last detail of the case? That means it's time for a Saturday night repeat episode- In Broad Daylight! Keith is our leaning guide through this tale of a suburban mom who was killed inside her home while officers were standing right outside her front door. There is a roided out hit man, a middle man named El Cubano, and a Chinese restaurant waiter who isn’t that important to the story but deserves a shout out for trying to chat up their customer (even though his customer is currently in custody and wearing a wire). So pump some iron, buddy, rip off that t-shirt and turn mean and green, pal, and get ready for some extraordinary Keithisms, partner. It’s In Broad Daylight!

Dateline never sleeps, but Kimberly and Katie had to take a mini winter hiatus to recharge for all the murders, almost murders, crimes of passion, crimes of fashion and what can only be assumed will be a steep rise in the hit man going rate due to inflation in 2020!

Why would someone not love dogs? What the heck does despositive mean? And WHERE IS THE EVIL SEA WITCH WHO STOLE KIMBERLY'S VOICE?

Friday's Dateline offering brought us a case chock full of suspects, mailboxes, Tolstoy and Abby Lee Miller (?)! It's an episode where the beloved Mr. Mankiewicz braves life, limb, and extreme pocket square damage by smirking straight into the face of pure evil seated behind scratchy prison glass. But, it's a lucky thing that Manky is rarely without his trusty hanky as this one is a real tear jerker and both Kimberly and Katie felt a strange watery substance on their upper cheeks while watching the tragic stories of Gelareh and Coty. Find out what exactly is so deliberately evil, what really happens on a justice conference call, who and what is a "swarm" and how to commit massive benefits fraud in the worst possible way on this very, very, very special episode of A Date with Dateline! Official Description from NBCU: A woman is found murdered in her car outside of her apartment. Solving this mystery would take not just years, but also involve at least one more murder. Josh Mankiewicz reports. This episode is dedicated to long time Patronus Amy C., her best friend, her brother, and her son Harrison who refuses to go to sleep! Thank you, Amy!!!

K & K may have taken a week off, but Dateline never sleeps... and NO ONE is sleeping on this amazing story. True heroes are still out there and this episode has more than a couple. The sweetest of our champions being an older Jewish man name Abe, whom after profound tragedy spent years traveling the globe to bring his son's black widow wife to justice. Yet, Kimberly still can't manage to clean out the back seat of her car. But, she did manage to coin a new phrase for the other heroes in this episode who are a different kind of sweet... more of an eye candy variety. Eye rolling and fake gagging noises may begin now. Natalie Morales is on the scene in Puerto Rico and K & K are here for both her classy white jumpsuit and top-notch interview skills. So kick off your wedges, grab a pina colada and get ready for some seriously sociopathic criminal activity and some seriously butchered accents in this very, very special episode of A Date with Dateline! Official Description from NBCU: The murder of a young businessman in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico marks the start of a 15-year hunt and an international game of cat and mouse to find the killer.
