Summary

This week, Sara and Danny are joined by Aly Michalka from Aly & AJ to spend a bit of time talking about true crime! They kick things off discussing the recent release from prison of Charles Sobhraj (popularized by the Netflix series "The Serpent"), and the questionable reason behind the decision. Then, they dig into the main topic of the episode, the unsolved murder of Hollywood director William Desmond Taylor in 1922. They start off with some background info on Desmond Taylor and his immigration to the US, and how he began his career in Hollywood after a winding path through Northern America. Then, they cover the circumstances of his murder, and the long list of suspects that have been investigated throughout the years. Make sure to check out Aly & AJ's newest album "With Love From" when it comes out March 15th! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
