Episode 84: Forbidden Affairs and Fatal Consequences (with special co-host, Jackie!)

Get ready for a jam-packed episode as I’m joined by my best friend of 22 years, Jackie, who’s here to co-host and catch up with me on everything from the hilariously mundane to the strangely profound. For the first 30 minutes, since this is Jackie’s first time on a podcast (yay!) we get all warmed up by chatting about our friendship, sharing some memories, and diving into all the quirky odds and ends that make our friendship so special (to us, haha!). Then, we switch gears to a murder case that feels ripped straight out of a true-crime soap opera. It’s the shocking story of Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan—a devastating tale with all the juicy twists: a Brazilian au pair, a fetish website, an illicit affair, and, ultimately, a double murder that will leave you wondering if you’re listening to real life or a dark thriller. This episode is full of friendship, laughter, and plenty of true crime twists and turns! Come for the true crime, stick around for the life updates, and—of course—enjoy the chaos🌵🩷 Don't forget to subscribe, leave a review, and follow us on social media @DeathXSouthwest for all the behind-the-scenes fun.
