Summary

Skip the banter: 00:05:54 (give or take a minute depending on ads in the beginning)

When Iana Kasian moved to Los Angeles, she had dreams of a new life, one filled with family, safety, and stability. Instead, she crossed paths with Blake Leibel, a man born into wealth and obsessed with control. On paper, he was a Hollywood creative with a dark, surreal graphic novel to his name. But behind closed doors, his fantasies spilled into reality in the most brutal way imaginable. Allison tells us the rest of this story that ends with a mother’s scream and a detail from the crime scene that still haunts investigators.

And by we, I mean you.

0:22.7

And by me, I'm going to be like, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Oh, wow, that's a lot of stuff going on. That's what I'm going to do. And I'm going to dream of some coffee while I do that. You bring a lot to the table here, Mike. Yeah, I'm a very talented individual and I'm glad to share with you guys.

0:36.3

So thank you so much for coming around.

0:38.4

And what were you pointing at me for?

I was going to say you have charming good looks and that's what you bring to this table.

0:43.3

Wow, that is very nice. I'm so glad I paused because I saw you pointing at me. I was like, is there something out in my face right now? You're like, wait, actually, we got to stop because I can't look at you the rest of the episode.

0:51.7

There's a booger coming out of your nose.

0:53.4

It wouldn't be the first time.

0:54.4

I actually made a, like, I was looking at my face the other day.

0:57.7

I'm older. I can't look at you the rest of the episode. There's a bugger coming out of your nose. It wouldn't be the first time. I actually made a, like, I was looking at my face the other day.

0:57.7

I'm, I'm older, you know, I'm 46. And there's hair starting to come like out of the back of my ears and stuff. and like the nose trimming sessions are just getting out of hand.

1:06.1

And I'm wondering like what at what age do men get where you ever sit across from a guy who's like 60 plus and it's just like oh man that guy's got hair is just like rocketing out of his nose you have to just be dedicated to constantly manscaping right and keeping yourself you know in line I plan on doing that like I never plan on just giving up and being like well whatever but like you know as you get older you. You just kind of get like, oh, I don't care what anybody thinks. Like, what is, when does that

1:30.4

come where it's like a guy's just like, whatever, they're going to see my hairs coming out of my ears and nose. 85 maybe. Yeah, but like, I'm not going to sit across from you and talk to you with hairs coming out of your nose. I'll tell you that right now. That's my saving grace. So if you, please, please promise me that you will always tell me if there's like some crazy hairs coming out of my nose. I will. And then if I keel off, you have to talk to our daughter about that. Okay. And then maybe, you know, I'll, I'll still keep the podcast going, you know, just for just to remember you. And I think you guys should probably get an episode once every six months if that happens. Guys, sorry.

2:01.4

I had to make dinner the other day. So I'm a little behind and, you know, I'll get back to things as soon as I can. And then it'll be, yeah, eight months later, nothing will happen.
