Hey guys and welcome to the Moms and Murder podcast, a true crime podcast featuring myself Mandy and my dear friend Melissa. Hi Melissa. How are you?

Hi, Mandy. I'm okay. How are you? Good. I was hoping you'd say you were okay. I mean, better than last week anyway. Not yet. I'm getting there very soon. By the time this comes out, I'll be doing amazing. It'll be February. I just need January to be over with. January has just been a month. A year. I don't know. Yeah. Well, I guess a lot of people think that I've been seeing a lot of different memes and stuff going around on social media with like people, you know, basically the idea is that January has lasted forever and has been terrible for everyone. So, yeah, you're not alone. I'm in good company. Yeah, there you go. Just a reminder, we have our live show coming up in Chicago on March 27th at the Chicago City Winery and we'll have all

the information in our show notes. Mandy started pulling sources for the episode that we're doing.

It's a cuckoo banana story. Just the most moms and murder story you will ever hear in your

entire life. So if you're in the area, please come see us. We would love to see you. Tickets are still on sale. Check that out again in the show notes. Very exciting announcement there. But we'd love to see you. Yeah. And it's coming up. I mean, I feel like it's not like that soon, but I feel like it is coming up kind of fast. I don't know. I mean, it'll be here before we know it. We'll be saying, we have plenty of time. We have plenty of time. And then we'll be on an airplane, like, just full-blown panic attack. So we'll see what happens. Yeah. We'll do our best. For sure. It'll be great. Absolutely. So we'll get right into this week's episode. This episode was actually suggested to us in our Facebook group several weeks back, maybe even months ago now, I really don't remember.

I think I accidentally missed it. Somebody had posted it on the, there's a post in our Facebook

group where people can leave suggestions. And I just never saw this one until I was looking

through it again recently. And I stumbled on it and it caught my attention, mostly because I

couldn't believe that I had never even heard about this before.

This week's story involves a celebrity, which is Woody Harrelson. And when you think of Woody,

you probably think of his roles in hit movies and TV shows, including Cheers, which is where

he got his big break, a movie, natural born killers, the hunger games, and even

zombie land. But what you probably don't think about Woody Harrelson, and maybe you're hearing

this for the first time right now, is that Woody has a very close connection with a man

that is responsible for as many as two dozen killings. And that man is Woody's own father, Charles Harrelson,

who lived a wild high-stakes life after becoming involved with the Sicilian mob in the 1960s.

So today's episode is about the contract killings of Charles Harrelson, the hit that finally

sent him to prison, and some really interesting allegations about being an accomplice in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

So there are multiple locations in this story and most of them are in Texas, but the murder that Charles Harrelson is the most notorious for happened in San Antonio.

So before we get into the story this week, we're going to tell you a little about San Antonio in this week's segment of we Googled this city. And I don't remember if we talked about San Antonio before. Doesn't it seem like it's familiar, but I don't think these facts have anything to do with it. We've been in Texas a lot, so it wouldn't surprise me if we've done San Antonio once before. Okay, so there's a chance some of these are repeats,

but I really don't think they are. I felt like I went at least on page two of Google for some of

these facts. So San Antonio is located in Texas, as we said, and has a population of around 1.5 million
