Just The Tip-sters

Melissa delves into the tragic 2011 "Lululemon Murder" in Bethesda Maryland by way of a riveting and personal exploration of one woman's passion for yoga.  Often erroneously described as "the murder in the yoga store," Melissa discusses the Lululemon case through the lens of her own personal journey with yoga, how it's portrayed in popular culture, and the unfortunate way gullible, beautiful souls searching for spiritual healing and meaning can be co-opted by false gurus.

Melissa is joined by special guest KARI HEWITT of The Finders, a Southern California band of dedicated volunteers who work with law enforcement and other volunteer organizations to help families of missing persons find their loved ones.  In this episode, Melissa and Kari discuss the strange, sad, maddening case of Will Cierzan, who appeared to have disappeared without a trace in January of 2017 when his wife returned home from work to discover the door unlocked, dinner ready, her husband's keys and wallet still in the house - but no husband.  A fascinating look at a fascinating case and the tough, single-minded searcher determined to solve it.

Melissa is horrified to learn not only that she and Chuckles were born just a few miles apart - but that the guy who built a temple to Everything Manson and who is suing to get all of Manson's belongings - including his body! - lives just a couple of miles from where she is now!

Mmmmm garlic paste.  And chicken!  What could be more tasty?  How about a nasty family feud over a multi-million dollar restaurant chain that turns bloodier than a you-kinow-what with its head cut off!  Join Melissa as she takes us deep into the Zankou Massacre of 2003...

Melissa explores the strange case of Gene Simmons (no, not THAT Gene Simmons!) who celebrated Christmas and New Year back in 1987 in a most macabre way...
