Summary

In this week’s episode, Bob sits down with one of the hosts of the “Paradise After Dark” podcast, Lauren Samples. A Florida native, Lauren hosts the show with her husband, Ken, where they tell the stories of what happens in “paradise” after the sun goes down. Bob and Lauren discuss her background as a Navy police officer, exchange quotes from “King of the Hill,” and laud the impressive research skills of True Crime Binge’s Production Manager. They then discuss the case of Taylor McAllister. In December 2016, Taylor’s murdered body was found in an alley in St. Petersburg, Florida. Quickly, three men were implicated in the case, including Taylor’s boyfriend at the time, though all three deny having anything to do with her death. Originally covered in a three-part series on “Paradise After Dark,” Taylor’s case eventually went cold and, to this day, no charges have been brought in relation to her murder.
