Black Dahlia Breakdown- Ep. 1: The Murder of Elizabeth Short

Y'all... I legit have anxiety posting this episode. I was insanely excited about "Jarring Japan", but I think this is my favorite season yet. We've worked super hard on it so we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it!This season is based on one of Ashley's favorite podcasts of all time, Root of Evil: The True Story of the Hodel Family and the Black Dahlia. As the title explains, the podcast is about the murder of Elizabeth Short (aka "the Black Dahlia"), as well as the Hodel Family.In this season, we'll explore the man behind the mystery of who killed Elizabeth Short, George Hodel, and the generational wake of terror and destruction that he left, causing members of his own family to name the podcast the "Root of Evil" after him.In our first episode, Ashley and Megan from Give Us Morgue, will dig into the murder of the Black Dahlia and introduce the man who killed her, George Hodel.Trigger warning for graphic details of sexual assault, torture, and mutilation.Special thanks to Rasha Pecoraro and Yvette Gentile for allowing us to tell their family's story. We respect the hell out of these incredible women.Find the podcast that this season is based on, Root of Evil: The True Story of the Hodel Family and the Black Dahlia, here:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/root-of-evil-the-true-story-of-the/id1450277129Find Rasha and Yvette's current podcast, Facing Evil, here:https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-facing-evil-98407485/Find Megan from Give Us Morgue here:https://giveusmorgue.com/Follow Give Us Morgue on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/giveusmorgue/-Join us for as little as $5 a month on Patreon!-We'd love to see you in our Discord, come hang out!-We have awesome new merch, go take a look!-Follow us on Instagram and Twitter!-Audio editing by Jennifer Chen.-Absolutely amazing research assistance by Celi Riojas.-Sources:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/root-of-evil-the-true-story-of-the/id1450277129https://www.biography.com/crime/black-dahliahttps://www.fbi.gov/history/famous-cases/black-dahliahttps://archives.fbi.gov/archives/news/stories/2006/october/dahlia_102006https://biographics.org/elizabeth-short-the-black-dahlia/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x__EENXMY2shttps://www.biography.com/crime/black-dahliahttps://www.fbi.gov/history/famous-cases/black-dahliahttps://archives.fbi.gov/archives/news/stories/2006/october/dahlia_102006https://biographics.org/elizabeth-short-the-black-dahlia/https://www.amazon.com/Exquisite-Corpse-Surrealism-Dahlia-Murder/dp/B000WZTZOUhttps://www.amazon.com/Black-Dahlia-Avenger-Presenting-Investigation/dp/0983074445https://www.crimeandinvestigation.co.uk/crime-files/elizabeth-short-the-black-dahlia
