Stories are back, and this summer episode is bringing the heat.
This week, Trevin finds himself facing a very adult problem: he got so lazy with meals and grocery shopping that he somehow ran out of food entirely. Amanda brushes up against a potential scam after her dad, Papa Dennis, receives a suspicious unpaid toll notice—leading Amanda's husband to do what any reasonable person would do and call the scammer himself.
For Killer Facts, Amanda explores the explosive history of Krakatoa, the Indonesian volcano whose eruption produced one of the loudest sounds ever recorded. Trevin counters with a different kind of world record, introducing strongman John Stephenson, whose unusual fire-related stunts have made him famous for reasons you'll never forget.
Then it's time for stories.
Amanda heads to New Orleans, where baker Julie Fradella of The Sweet Hustle finds herself caught in a customer's relationship drama. When heartbreak, betrayal, and cake decorating collide, one custom order becomes a delicious act of petty revenge.
Trevin brings a recent case out of Souderton, Pennsylvania, involving volunteer firefighter Justin Sholly. What begins as a story of heroism quickly transforms into a lesson about self-appointed saviors, as investigators uncover a pattern of arson tied to the very person eager to help.
From revenge cakes to firefighters starting the very fires they're supposed to stop, this episode proves some people will do anything to feel the heat.
Take a break from the heavy and get petty.
