Ep. - 1677 - WORST NEIGHBOR EVER
Kate speaks with Gretchen Palek, executive producer of Netflix's true-crime docuseries Worst Neighbor Ever, which examines four shocking real-life cases where ordinary neighborhood disputes spiraled into harassment, violence, fraud, and murder. Gretchen explains how the series evolved from the successful Worst Roommate Ever and Worst Ex Ever franchises, what makes these stories uniquely unsettling, and how her team balanced survivor interviews, law enforcement accounts, body-camera footage, and carefully crafted reenactments to tell each story with sensitivity and impact.

Ep. - 1676 - LOCKERBIE: THE REAL STORY BEHIND NETFLIX’S THE BOMBING OF PAN AM 103
Richard Marquise led the FBI's investigation into the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, one of the deadliest acts of terrorism in modern history and the largest international criminal investigation ever conducted. In this re-air of our conversation, Richard takes us inside the decades-long hunt for answers: the evidence recovered from Scottish fields, the international cooperation the case demanded, and what it meant to carry a promise to 270 victims and their families for nearly forty years. We're revisiting this episode now as Netflix's The Bombing of Pan Am 103 — starring Patrick J. Adams as Richard, premieres globally on July 30th, bringing this story to a new generation. Richard is a retired FBI Special Agent and author of Scotbom: Evidence and the Lockerbie Investigation.

Ep. - 1675 - THE LAST GUEST OF THE HOLLOWAY MOTEL
Ramiel Petros and Nicholas Freeman join Kate to talk about their documentary The Last Guest of the Holloway Motel, the story of former Norwich City footballer Tony Powell — a 1970s soccer star who vanished from public life for over 40 years and was later found managing a run-down West Hollywood motel. What started as a short film about a disappearing building on Santa Monica Boulevard turned into a five-decade, two-continent story about identity, family, and the cost of staying hidden. Kate talks with Ramiel and Nick about how they first spotted Tony on his balcony, how they earned his trust over years of filming, and what it was like to help him reconcile the life he built in West Hollywood with the one he left behind in England. The Last Guest of the Holloway Motel is available now to rent or buy on Prime Video, Apple TV, Amazon Video, and Fandango At Home.
