Episode 242 - Tonya Harding: Cold as Ice
What would you do if you put in all the hard work, pushing yourself to the pinnacle of your sport, and you still didn’t get the recognition you deserved? Would you give up? Would you take matters into your own hands and get a bitch kneecapped as she walked back to her changing room? Or would your ex-husband do it and throw you under the bus?

Episode 240 - Kim Jong Nam: Prank Show Assassination
On the 13th of February 2017, two young women - believing that they were taking part in a bizarre Japanese game show - smeared baby oil across the face of a stranger at Kuala Lumpur Airport in Malaysia. The truth, however, was that there was no Japanese game show; the baby oil wasn't baby oil; and these two women had just unknowingly assassinated the estranged half-brother of North Korea's one and only, Supreme Leader, Kim Jong Un.

Episode 239 - The D.C. Snipers
In the space of 3 weeks in October 2002, Washington D.C was terrorised by a pair of spree killers carrying out a spate of deadly sniper-style attacks. They killed 10 people and injured 3 others. Their choice of victims was shockingly random; they crossed racial, gender, age and socioeconomic lines - ensuring that everyone was absolutely terrified. And when the pair were finally apprehended, authorities realised that they had been wrong about almost everything from motive to profile… Check us out on this week’s episode of Let’s Not Meet Podcast too!

Episode 234 - The Hillsborough Disaster
The deadliest event in UK sporting history took place on the 15th of April, 1989. In the starting minutes of the F.A. Cup semi-finals between Liverpool F.C. and Nottingham Forest, a disaster unfolded which to date has claimed the lives of 97 people. and left 766 others injured on the day. These innocent people were the victims of the complacency, ineptitude, and sheer incompetence of those whose very jobs were to ensure their safety. Institutional coverups, police corruption, evidence tampering, and lies in the media made it take almost 30 years for the truth to come to light.
