This episode was almost called A Crescendo of Crime… but then we accidentally booked a petty criminal.
In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Trevin and Amanda dive into strange crimes, bizarre animal behavior, and their first-ever interview with the subject of a story.
Trevin revisits the very millennial experience of being labeled a “back-talker” as a kid, while Amanda battles bedtime negotiations as Winnie discovers the art of lovebombing for extra conversation time.
For Top 5, Trevin explores rejected Illinois vanity license plates — including disasters like “THICCAF” and “BLUBALLN” — while Amanda counts down the most bizarre animal mating techniques in nature, featuring Surinam toads, bed bugs, and even fish from Finding Nemo.
Trevin’s story takes us to the University of Alaska, where theater student Graham Granger becomes surrounded by AI-generated artwork. But when one particular AI art display pushes him over the edge, he makes the unforgettable decision to eat the art itself.
Amanda heads back to 1950 for the story of Marion D. Perry, a suburban man driven mad by nonstop barking dogs — leading him to devise a very unusual form of revenge.
Then, in a first for the show, Trevin interviews Graham Granger himself to learn what actually happened, how his stomach survived eating AI art, and whether the viral news coverage got the story right.
From rejected license plates to consumed artwork, this episode gets loud in all the weirdest ways.
