Summary

What happens when man’s best friend becomes a murder suspect’s worst nightmare? In this episode of The Shallow End, we explore the bizarre story of a puppy who brought down a murder suspect in the most unexpected way. But wait—there’s more! We also dive into the cringe-worthy tale of a guy who decided to test the limits of decency by snapping inappropriate photos, only to be served a piping-hot plate of instant karma. Let’s just say his plan backfired in the most spectacularly embarrassing way. Join Lindsay and Jethro as they unravel these jaw-dropping tales of crime, punishment, and a hefty dose of irony. Don’t miss this laugh-out-loud episode packed with twists, turns, and a healthy dose of comeuppance! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
