    The Unsolved Girl Scout Murders of Camp Scott

    On June 12, 1977, three young Girl Scouts arrived at Camp Scott in Oklahoma for what should have been the start of an unforgettable summer. By the next morning, 8-year-old Lori Lee Farmer, 9-year-old Michele Heather Guse, and 10-year-old Doris Denise Milner were dead. What followed was a massive investigation, a controversial suspect, disturbing evidence, and questions that remain unanswered nearly 50 years later. In this episode of Internet Friendsy, Whitney takes you inside the Oklahoma Girl Scout Murders, from the eerie events leading up to that night to the investigation, trial, and theories surrounding one of America’s most haunting unsolved cases. Listener discretion is advised. This episode discusses violence against children, sexual assault, and murder.

    Ho Ho Holy Sh*t

    Christmas was supposed to be cozy, joyful, and full of family memories… but this episode proves the holidays bring out the absolute messiest behavior. In this week’s episode of Internet Friendsy, we dive into a jaw-dropping AITAH story where a newly married woman finds herself blindsided on Christmas night when her husband invites a “friend” over without checking first. What starts as an awkward visit quickly turns uncomfortable when emotional confessions, shared holiday memories, and a very personal gift raise serious red flags. When the wife finally asks the guest to leave, she’s accused of ruining Christmas — and now her own husband wants her to apologize. Was she protecting her marriage… or crossing a line? We unpack the boundaries (or lack of them), the husband’s reaction, and the update that completely changes how this story feels — including what was really inside the gift and why it hurt more than anyone expected. We also get into: – Should a spouse ever invite someone over on a major holiday without checking first? – Why is the husband defending his “friend” instead of validating his wife? – When does emotional history become emotional cheating? – Are apologies owed here — and if so, by who? Plus, we break down additional holiday-from-hell AITAH stories featuring family drama, boundary issues, and Christmas chaos that will make you feel way better about your own holidays. Grab your headphones, pour the wine, and decide for yourself… AITAH? 🎧🎄

    I Loved You... Then I Googled You | Insane Reddit Stories

    In this episode of Internet Friendsy, we explore four stories where relationships take a serious turn after the truth finally comes to light—sometimes with just a quick Google search. 🛫 “My husband was arrested at the airport—on our way to our honeymoon.” A woman’s newlywed bliss is cut short when her husband is taken into custody just before boarding their flight. What she thought was the start of forever turned out to be something very different. 🚔 “The cops showed up… to question me about my wife’s affair.” He thought everything was normal—until the police came to his door. The visit uncovered more than just an investigation; it revealed a betrayal he never saw coming. 🔍 “I Googled the guy I’ve been seeing—and found out he stalked his ex-wife.” They’d been dating for a while and things were going well. But a quick search turned up a history that made her rethink everything. 🏠 “My new boyfriend has a whole other family in another state.” She thought she was getting to know someone new. What she didn’t know was that he had already started a life somewhere else—and walked away from it. Whether it’s a hidden past, a double life, or something that just doesn’t add up, this episode is about the moments when the truth surfaces—and how people respond when it does.
