Even his workout routine was unimpressive: The American tragedy that is the Watts family murders
In this podcast episode, we discuss the Netflix doc American Murder, the Family Next Door, and hurl many insults at the man responsible. Along the way, many questions come to mind, such as:
Just how much of a dim bulb is Chris Watts?
Just how much victim-blaming does a woman get for trying to keep her lazy-assed sociopathic husband under control?
Is this moronic murderer at least smart enough to recognize that he’s been caught on surveillance during the crime?
How much lying and heartbreak and Facebook creeping can one story have?
And, how does one badass detective named Tammy get this whole thing wrapped up?
Also:
Do all of our problems really come from the Bible?
Can fitness really turn people into assholes?
Does Becky mispronounce the word “banal?” Does she manage to get through one podcast episode without mentioning Chee-toes? Does she break her own record for the number of F-bombs in one episode?
When will Merie start tagging everything with #blessed, #bestlife, #love him, #luckygirl, #madeforeachother? Is she finally becoming the asshole she was meant to be?
Who is Walter and how will he manage to murder Merie someday?
Come for the murderer insults. Stay for the lie-detecting Fitbit.
