Every Wednesday, hosts Amanda Rose and Trevin Bartee share real stories of ridiculous, low-stakes crimes — from dumb criminals and pett revenge to absurd real-life chaos — told with dramatic seriousness and comedy-first energy. No murders. Just bad decisions. Take a break from the heavy and get petty.
