Hey guys, Melissa and Mandy here with Mom's and Murder and we are so excited to tell you about the new podcast called Killer Psychie Daily.

It's like these bite-sized versions of the weekly podcast but it actually gives you a 10-minute quick rundown that you can listen to every weekday.

And it's all about the motivations and behaviors of the psychopaths, criminal masterminds, and cold-blooded killers you hear about in the news.

Host Candace DeLong draws on her time as an FBI agent and criminal profiler to break down these cases for you.

And she'll give you insight into cases like that of Ryan Grantham, an active stocked in serial killer.

That's right, an active serial killer.

Someone has been arrested, but is it the right person?

We're about to play a clip from the show for you.
