For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved? Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices…

Hey y'all! One more Winter Holiday Break and we will be back on Jan 5th to continue our season into 2023 with you folks! <3 This Week on Law and Order Season 5, E08 Virtue, we get powerful performances but a dangerous narrative. Enn takes us through the red herrings and navigates the multiple plot jumps with grace, and then prepare for the true story that this episode was based on. Anita Hill made sexual harassment allegations against Clarence Thomas in the early 90s, and was made a target for public harassment and jest by the media. Thomas would join the Supreme Court, and Anita has since been a voice, advocate and keep player in social change and support for survivors and victims - do you remember this landmark trial?

This week we dive into S05 E07 of Law and Order, Precious. Matt recaps the episode which features a couple of horse cops, a red herring and a few strange character choices- but the acting by the lead suspect, was compelling to say the least. Then, Enn tells us one of the horrific true stories that this episode was based on - take a deep breath folks it's not an easy one. Marybeth Tinning is known for having multiple children pass away from variety of ailments, but was there more to the story then originally met the eye? From the Episode: Here are some of the Instagram Accounts for support if you or someone you know are living with infant/child loss and would like support, resources or ways to help <3 @eachandeveryheart @hopeagaincollective @Thecooperproject141 @Mollybearsorg Support the show…

So Happy to be back with you all, and we are more thankful than ever for all of your support! This week Enn recaps....what could be the most offensive episode yet? S05 E06, Competence - buckle up. This episode was inspired by the murder of Edmund Perry by Police Officer Lee Van Houten, which we covered in Season 1 Episode 8 Marshmallow Tolerance Level. Since we've covered this case Matt tells one of the cases that got him interested in true crime; The story of Elizabeth Diane Downs, the murder of Cheryl Downs and the story of Becky Babcock. **we did not record a content warning; In this episode the topics of racial violence and child death are discussed. From the Episode: Need something light-hearted? This is the song/video we spoke about at about 21:30 My Boba Manifesto Support the show…

Hey Listeners! We will be taking a short Autumn Holiday Break returning in 3 weeks on December 8th! In this season of gratitude, we are sincerely grateful to all of you. This show is completely independent and self-funded and we remain motivated and passionate largely because of all of your support and engagement! THANK YOU! This week be prepared to go down the rabbit hole with us as Matt recaps S05 E05 of Law and Order: White Rabbit! It was a pretty insane episode between hidden identities, tearful monologues, and an Animorph?! The listen as Enn tells us the true story that this episode Ripped from the Headlines - the story of Sara Jane Olson is a former member of the Symbionese Liberation Army. Had you ever heard of this story, and how do you think justice should have been served? Support the show…

This week is another big one folks! Enn takes us through the insanely dramatic Family Values (S05 E04 of Law & Order) guest starring a teenage Sarah Paulson! While this episode had multiple sources it drew from, most prominent was the story of Mary Jo Buttafuoco who was shot by Amy Fisher on her doorstep and survived! The press dubbed her the “ Long Island Lolita ” and while Amy and Joey are often the focus of this saga (just how they like it,) the real victims/survivors are the ones left behind to pick up the pieces - Mary Jo and her children.

This week Matt recaps the very racially insensitive Episode 3 of Law and Order's 5th season titled: Blue Bamboo...OK? The shining bright light of this mess is guest star Laura Linney!! This episode was based on who would be referred to as "Japanese Comfort Women," a terribly oppressive, abusive and inhumane practice that is unfortunately widely unknown to so many of us. Enn also tells us the story of one such woman, Kim Hak-Sun, whose testimony illuminated this dark world to folks, like us, who never knew these of these horrors faced by thousands. Support the show…

This week we dive right into Coma, Episode 2 of our fifth Law and Order Season. Enn takes us through this sort of snooze of an episode but don't worry this episode has everything from gourmet ducks to Harriet the Spy! Afterwards Matt tells us about the tragic deaths within the Karlsen family. Levi and Katherine Karlsen both have tragic stories to tell, but could their deaths be connected? Listen to the end to find out the shocking conclusion! Support the show…

Weeeee're Baaaaaa-aaaaack! Can you believe it's season 5 already? We sincerely cannot and we'd love to take our show to the next level, and bring you even more content (we have ideas folks!) so if you haven't already, please rate, subscribe and leave us a review. I know everyone asks for it, and it's almost background noise, but it will help us immensely and it costs you nothing ;) Thanks for continuing to hang out with us every week! <3 Season Five's premiere episode Second Opinion introduces Jack McCoy (I will miss Stone!) and Matt has all sorts of feelings about this wild ride of an episode! Afterwards Enn explains the mysterious death of Gloria Ramirez under the most unusual of circumstances. It's important to remember that while the "case" may be full of intrigue, Gloria was a woman who lived and walked on this earth and who loved & was loved by many - What do you think happened to this warm spirit?

It's our Season Finale!! Because we took a long mid-season break, we are simply taking 2 weeks off recording and will return with the Season 5 Premiere on The Aug 20th! This week Enn recaps the tepid Season 4 finale of Law and Order: Old Friends. Hey at least we get Allison Janney in a starring role! Since this episode had no Inso, Matt tells the story of Michael and Dalia Dippolito. Much of this case is caught on video or audio recording, and be prepared for twists and turns that you will never see coming. What are your thoughts about the unique circumstances of this story?

Prepare to hit the courts this week (is that tennis lingo? no?) as we watch S04 E21 of Law and Order: Doubles. We get an invisible tennis match, Detecives Bebop and Rocksteady and a wound that defies all explanation. After Matt recaps the episode, we take to the ice with Enn who tell us the true story this episode was ripped from: Tonya Harding & the attack against Nancy Kerrigan. This was a time in the country when the media had even less grace for it's villains and heroes; with what we know now, have your thoughts changed at all on this one? Support the show…

This week's episode is star studded! Camryn Manheim, Christine Baranski, Adina Porter and Danny Tamberelli all appear in S04 E20 of Law and Order, Nurture, and Enn will take us through the bizarre twists and turns in this emotional episode. Afterwards stay with us while Matt tells the unbelievable true story ripped from the headlines for this episode; the story if Katie Beers. Katie was just 9 years old when she disappeared from a local arcade, and when authorities get involved they discover she has very few people on her side at home.

Ripped From The Headlines

In episode 19 of Season 4, Sanctuary, Law and Order pulls from multiple sources to concoct an episode that does NO favors to marginalized communities but Kincaid actually provides some valuable insight that aged quite well; We love to see growth! The episode is very reminiscent of The Crown Heights Riots, which we covered in a previous season, but is also based on the story of Rodney King. He may have become a lightning rod for controversy, discourse and social change, but this was never his intent - Enn takes behind the headlines and shines a light on many of the facts of the case that were eclipsed by the narrative at the time, and we discuss the ramifications of how this man's brutal beating was portrayed and "settled."
