93-3-WMR Audio on Demand presents the Preston and Steve show podcast.

So our next guest does a tour of some bars and breweries and talks about murders and things like that.

It's a very interesting concept because we're fascinated with stories of evil and mayhem and all of that.

It does fascinate us.

And the series is called Fallonius, the Sordid History of Philadelphia Murder and Mayhem.

And the host of these events is right here.

This is Sarah Kalan who is

hi hello Sarah how are you I am well thank you so much for having me our pleasure so you are

uniquely qualified to speak about such things can you tell us a little bit about your background

sure so um the first portion of my childhood teen and early adult life, I was in theater. And then at the age of 23, I decided, no, what I really want to do is be a cop. And I went and did that. And I was a police officer for about 10 years and then decided what I really wanted to do was move into academia and study serial killers and serial sexual predators. And so, and I'm, I'm still doing that. I do work as a cold case homicide

investigator. You consult for various, uh, organizations? I do. Yeah, I usually work directly with an

agency. I have at times done it, um, for like documentary film stuff where I'm not necessarily connected to the agency.

Right. You are filmmaker as well. I am. Yeah. And I'm actually working on a dock right now where we are embedded.

The dock is embedded with me and with the agency investigating a 26-year cold case in Alabama.

I was looking at the trailer, I guess a teaser that's up for this.

And it's there, there are, um, explain that story that you're doing and how you approach

something, a cold case that's decades old.

Uh, well, gosh, that's a great question. Um, really what you want to do with something that,

like, the way I go into one that, that's really's really, really old is literally to start from the beginning.

And so any case, as if the crime just happened?

Yeah, yeah.

But with the advantage of also having the original investigators' notes and stuff like that.
