Summary

This week, we check out the very rural town of Tonasket, Washington, where a married man's extracurricular activities get a young woman brutally, and viciously killed, as the town reacts with horror, at each new detail. Along the way, we find out where Bigfoot lives, exactly what "old fashioned" barbecue is, and how much a meth dealer charges to kill someone!!

This week, we look at the town of Tanaske, Washington, where a jealous wife took matters into her own hands. Welcome to Small Town Murder.

0:17.0

Hello everybody. Welcome back to Small Town Murder. My name is James Cutcher-Gallow. I'm here with my co-host. I'm Jimmy Wissman. We could not be more excited as usual to be here with you folks. Today we're always excited for this. Of course, how can you not be? We have... This is the best thing ever.

0:46.0

We have murder on the docket. That's always a good thing. Well, not for people who have been murdered, but for people who are interested in hearing about murder. Yes. Just want to first off...

0:55.0

And they're in the right place. I want to thank everyone for their iTunes reviews this week. Thank you guys so much. You guys have come through so huge for us.

1:04.0

Unbelievable. Unbelievable. What a big week. It was amazing. And we can't thank you enough. I can't describe to you how much that helps us business wise. It just does.

1:14.0

I know it takes 30 seconds, but it helps us, you know, 30 hours worth of... It's ridiculous. It's really seconds. It is. It's so ridiculous. So thank you so much. And if you haven't yet, got to remind you again, please get on iTunes and give us five stars. Anything you want.

1:29.0

Anything. The sun is bright and hot. We're fine. Say James sounds tired today. Yes, because James is in the middle of a comedy weekend. Yes.

1:37.0

I'm in the middle of being at a club and it's there to all the all hours of the night. And I have to go do more shows tonight after that. So it's it's a.

1:45.0

I'm cooking, but it's okay. It's fine. I'm happy to be here. I'm pumped. So you still brought you murder. How sweet is that? I'm working his ass off at the comedy club and he still brings you murder.

1:55.0

I have no. I don't need sleep. Who needs sleep? You can probably hear it in my voice. Sleep when you're murdered. Yes. Exactly. Which I'm sure happened eventually here with if we keep doing these podcasts. Someone's going to kill us.

2:06.0

Yes. The iTunes reviews are huge. Thank you so much. If the iTunes reviews are not enough for you and you're just you're such a helpful person and you like us so much that you need to do more.

2:16.0

You can do more. You can go on patreon.com slash crime and sports. That's our other podcast and make a donation there. All that money goes to us. And that would be extremely helpful.

2:27.0

Like we said, we took all the ads off the front and stuff like that. So we're kind of we'd rather be beholden to you guys. That's it. So that would be wonderful if you guys could help us out there. If you want to make a one time donation, you can go to PayPal. Our PayPal is crime and sports at gmail.com. That's the one.

2:41.0

So you can do that. So whatever you want to do either way, you can do that. If you don't want to do anything, you're like screw these guys. That's fine. That's cool. And we hope you don't get murdered. You know, you might deserve it for not helping us out. But that's fine. That's fine. It's cool.

2:56.0

Before we get started, just have to do our normal disclaimer. Yes, I hate it. But we have to because otherwise people don't they don't get it. They don't read in the description that this is comedy. And they're just like, why are they making jokes?

3:10.0

Because it's a comedy podcast. And you should expect that. For the take bullshit jobs, you're such a comedian. Fuck you. Alright, fuck you. So basically this is a comedy podcast. The facts are real. The cases are real. The research. Trust me. I haven't slept in days.

3:25.0

It's real. So it's nothing like that. But we make jokes. We've never make jokes at the expense of the victims at the expense of the victims families. That's how we're trying to do here. The jokes mainly come at the expense of small towns because we're all from small town and they all suck. They're all shit.

3:39.0

They're all shit. And let's everybody can make fun of, you know, come on. We have that or a bumbling police force or a murderer who's an asshole deserves to be made fun of. Absolutely. Either way, but it's all good. If that's fine with you, if you're into that and you're like, that sounds good.

3:52.0

Stick around. We're happy to have you on board. And if we're talking to, yes, you're the person. If not, if you think that true crime and comedy never ever belong together, then this isn't for you. And we thank you very much for giving us a shot and we shake hands and smack you on the ass and say, have a good one.

4:08.0

Yes, now that we've told everyone not to listen, let's get right into this. Let's do this. We're headed to the town of Tanaske, Washington today. I will ask the Northwest. Yeah, not don't ask it. Don't ask it. Don't tell it Washington. Tanaske, Washington. I'm sure I'm pronouncing that wrong because I've never pronounced anything right.

4:28.0

Last week, last week, the town was El Dorado. It's spelled like El Dorado. There's a goddamn car called an El Dorado that's spelled like that. They're like, actually, it's El Dorado. No, it's not. It's El Dorado because you spelled it like that. Sorry. Put a, put a Y in it if you want us to say it like that. You can't name your town and established word and then pronounce it differently and get mad at me for not knowing that you can't do that. I'm sorry. You can't even Pahonex Arizona.
