True Crime, Dumb Criminals & Prehistoric Chaos
from Morning Crankers: Comedy - News & Outrageous Real-Life Stories
This episode of Morning Crankers goes completely off the rails — and we wouldn’t have it any other way.We kick things off debating the best true crime documentaries ever made — the ones that made you question the justice system, your neighbors, and whether you should ever whisper in a bathroom again. From shocking hot-mic confessions to internet sleuths tracking killers from their couches, we break down the docs that changed the genre.Then it’s time for Dumb Criminals of the Week. A woman clocks 107 mph in a 55 mph zone… to make it to Little Caesars before closing. Yes, pizza was involved. Yes, charges were filed. And no, it probably wasn’t worth it.Meanwhile in New Orleans, rats are allegedly munching on police evidence — including marijuana — which raises serious questions about who’s really running the evidence room. And in Florida (because of course it’s Florida), a drunk tourist gets arrested for inappropriate behavior with a manatee statue outside a bar.We also dive into weird science news with the discovery of Haolong dongi — the “spiny dragon” dinosaur that looks like it’s wearing a porcupine fur coat — because nothing says Morning Crankers like prehistoric nightmare fuel.Dark, ridiculous, weird, and wildly entertaining — this episode has everything: crime, chaos, dinosaurs, drugged-up rodents, and felony-level pizza commitment.Grab your coffee. We’ll bring the chaos.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
