Listen to The Bookmarked by Risa's Book Club podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Movies can make you feel, make you dream.

Hello. Because that's the best way you can support our show. Goodbye. Hello. And welcome. To My Favorite Murder. That's Georgia Hartstark. That's Karen Kilgariff. This is the mini-sode. This is the mini-sode. We don't do that. Here's why. We're a little bit out of sorts because right now we are in Nassau, the Bahamas. We are in the freaking Bahamas. And we are in a place called The Studio at Baja Mar, which is this gorgeous resort here. And they have built a podcast studio at this resort. And we are now doing the inaugural podcast episode. That's right. Like you can come and podcast here. Yes. Which is incredible. Do you have a vacation podcast? Then you might want to come here. And in fact, because we're on vacation and we're at this resort, we're doing a kind of a themed minisode of vacation stories. In fact, we have a vacation podcast ourselves. It's this podcast and we're about to do it. We're only ever. We're never going back to Burbank. We're on the resort circuit now. Like many magicians and people who call bingo on cruise ships, that's us. We're resort talent. That's right. And I lost $100 in literally four seconds last night at the casino at this place playing the Whitney Houston slot machine. I watched. It was epic. I did too, though. It was the funniest thing I've ever done. I wasn't paying attention. You pressed the wrong button and you got like two spins. Max bet, max bet. You're done. It's over. Give up gambling. You're bad at it. All right. You want to go first? Sure. Vacation-themed mini-sode. A vacation-themed minisode with vacationers all around us. If you hear ambient noise, that's not, we didn't build this noise. This is real resort experience. Yeah. I can't get over it. Okay, so here's my first story. The subject line is, dad lost at sea on jet ski for three days. What? Survival story. Dear brethren of mayhem and murder and Dottie, I love you. Blah, blah, obsessed, want to be your BFFs, et cetera, et cetera. I know that Karen is obsessed with survival stories. So I thought I would share a story of how my dad, Dale Cimenti, I'm guessing. And then it says, feel free to say his name. There are many articles about this story. Holy shit. So this is the real deal. Okay. How my dad, Dale Cimenti, survived three days at sea in the Gulf of Mexico in 1994. Oh my, okay. Wow. Okay. So it says, the fam, my mother Liz, father Dale, five-year-old brother Joey, 25-year-old cousin Danny and my eight-year-old self went down to Cozumel in 1994. Danny is my dad's godson and they've spent their lives pulling pranks and generally being ridiculous with one another. On the first day of the trip, they decided to ride jet skis while we sat on the beach with my mom. They rented the jet skis from the shack on the beach across from our hotel and secured their rental with a credit card. They drove about two miles offshore before my dad's jet ski broke down. They idled for a moment and considered their options, but since my dad had his credit card at the beach shack, he didn't want to ditch the jet ski. Oh, my God. And then in all caps, it says, bad move, Dale. Dude. By the time Danny got back with help, my dad had already drifted away. My dad floated by himself in the ocean for three days. The jet ski sank almost immediately. What? Uh-huh. So you would think, oh, the motor died, but I'll just sit here. Yeah. No. And he says, but he was able to keep hold of the seat until he hallucinated that a guy in the clouds named Paul was offering him a fresh glass of orange juice and he let go of the seat. Oh, my freaking. Paul, thank God you're here. Oh, my God. Okay. This is mind blowing. Okay. You're not going to like this part. Okay. Snakes wrapped around his legs. And he threw them off. Are we sure those weren't hallucinations though? I mean, they could have. Yeah. I'm going to pretend they were hallucinations. When the snakes came, did you drop your glass of orange juice? You don't know what's going on. Okay, it says, he also made a pact with the sharks. He promised that if they didn't eat him, he would never eat them. That's not, sharks don't need that promise from you. It seems like it worked. He was able to put his shorts on his head at times in an effort to block the sun and the saltwater on his face. My mom sent us home with Danny and rented small Cessna planes to try to find my father. The Mexican Coast Guard didn't have anything in place for these kinds of situations, and she ended up getting the U.S. Coast Guard involved. My God, it's an international incident. My father was not a religious man, but on the third day, he asked for a sign that God wanted him around. Several hours later, a mollusk-covered Coke bottle with an inch of unidentified substance floated by. He didn't care if it was piss or Pepsi. And he says, and he drank it, even though it was a Coke bottle. Yeah. It's not Pepsi. A German freighter that had changed its course two hours earlier came upon him. He still had his shorts on his head and in his mind, he thought there was no way someone would pick up a man with shorts on his head from the ocean. The man who spotted him was named Archangel Kajayang. Archangel. Seriously. What? Yeah. Dale was pretty crispy and dehydrated, but otherwise had no medical problems. As if his ordeal wasn't enough, the jet ski company attempted to charge him $5,000 for No! No! Jet ski. Yep. No. My dad is the toughest SOB yet the kindest most gentle soul in the world It hard to believe it been over 20 years since it happened Strangely enough he still loves the ocean and takes every opportunity to go to the beach No no You know why? Because Paul's always there. Paul was there for him. Not a religious man, but Paul is there for you in the clouds, isn't he? Good old Paul in the clouds with his orange shoes. That's a religion I can get behind. Absolutely. We have a display cabinet in our basement with the life jacket and all the newspaper and magazine articles. Of course, I had the most atrocious sense of 90s fashion and braces. If you would like to read more about his ordeal. Oh, he wrote a book about it called Swept Away, A Story of Survival. And it's on Amazon and iTunes. Yes, I would like to read that book. What the hell? That was worth this entire trip, this story. Right? Like you couldn't have told this in our little Burbank studio. It would have been like not great. Okay, well, great. You had to tell us when we're both in resort wear. And we both. In paradise. We have two massive jet skis waiting for us the second this record is over. That is so many levels. Yeah, right? Wow. I don't even know how. That's the only one we should do today. Goodbye. And that was from Stephanie Chimenti Hammond. Wow. Ever feel like you're being chased by the marriage police? Welcome to Boys and Girls, the podcast where dating isn't dating. Arranged marriage is basically a reality show, except the contestants are strangers and your entire family is judging. You're sipping coffee with one maybe, grabbing dinner with another, and praying your karmic Ken or Barbie appears before your shelf life runs out. Trust me, I've been through this ancient and unshakable tradition. I jumped in, hoping to find love the right way, and instead I found chaos, cringe and comedy. And now, I'm looking for healing. Boys and Girls dives into every twist and turn of the arranged marriage carousel. The meet awkward, the near misses, the heartbreak, and let's not forget all the jokes. Listen to Boys and Girls on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, it's Alec Baldwin. This season on my podcast, here's the thing I'm speaking with more artists, policymakers, and performers, like composer Mark Shaman. Once you've established that you have the talent, it's about the hang. It's the pleasure of hanging out with the people that you're with. You know, Rob and I was always a great hang. We would sit in kibitz for hours and then eventually get around to the music. That's what I mostly think of when I think of him, the time together laughing. Lawyer Robbie Kaplan. The great gift of being a lawyer is the ability to actually change things in our society in a way that very few people can. You can really make a difference to causes in the United States if you bring the right case at the right time. Marriage equality. Yeah. Windsor is the perfect example. And journalist Chris Whipple.

A silver .40 caliber handgun was recovered at the scene. From iHeart Podcasts and Best Case Studios, this is Rorschach, Murder at City Hall. How could this have happened in City Hall? Somebody tell me that. Jeffrey Hood did it. July 2003. Councilman James E. Davis arrives at New York City Hall with a guest. Both men are carrying concealed weapons. and in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead. Pow, pow. Everybody in the chambers ducked. A shocking public murder. I screamed, get down, get down. Those are shots. Those are shots, get down. A charismatic politician. You know, he just bent the rules all the time. I still have a weapon and I could shoot you. And an outsider with a secret. He alleged he was a victim. of flat down. That may or may not have been political. That may have been about sex. Listen to Rorschach, Murder at City Hall, starting on March 25th on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, here is my first one. Okay. This is called, My Boyfriend Left Me for Dead. Oh, no. Hey, y'alls. Love you both so much and could fangirl all day, but let's get into it. I'm from Melbourne, Australia. Back in 2014, I went on a holiday with my boyfriend for the first time. We were 18 and newly in love. We went to Perth for a week and it was perfect. Until on our last day, we went to the beach and were building mega sandcastles and paddling in the ocean all day. The day was going amazing and I was so over the moon with my first boyfriend holiday. Remember those? We were out in the water and standing about three feet deep, just talking and laughing and being grossly in love when suddenly he turned around and started running back to the shore. I yelled out asking what was wrong and where he was going, but he did not respond and just kept running. I decided I should follow because clearly something happened. I got to the shore and he was standing on the beach, looking out into the water with the most frightened look on his face. I once again asked what's wrong and what happened. And he said, there's a fucking shark in the water. Oh, so I was shocked. I looked out into the water and about six feet from where we were just standing was a, you guessed it, seal. Swimming around playfully. I turned to him and said, that's a seal, you idiot. And he responded, well, I thought it was a shark. Okay. That's what had occurred to me. You thought it was a shark and you left me in the water and didn't say anything. Like didn't even yell shark. He just looked at me speechless. Yes, he left me in the water as a human sacrifice. 18 year old boys. Some might think this might have been the end for us, but nope. We are now married. Four amazing children. Double down. And he is still scared at the beach. Shout out to my sister for telling me I would really like podcasts and that I should try listening to this podcast, insisting I would love it. And she was in fact, right. Hi, Annie. Annie, it's always the sisters. Stay sexy and learn the difference between a shark and a seal and maybe tell your girlfriend why you're running. Emma, she, her. Emma. She married him. She sure did. It was a seal. Well, have you seen that movie Force Majeure? Force Majeure. Yes. Emma, if you haven't seen Force Majeure, it is the best movie and it's a real study in this exact thing. Because what I started thinking is Bradford, who works in our legal department, he's been my friend for a long time, has such a fear of sharks that I once sent him pictures of sharks with human teeth because it's the funniest thing. And he was like, please don't ever do that again. So maybe that guy had the same thing Okay but you can still yell the word shark That very true It like when you golfing Don you have to yell something so you don hit someone with a I don want to be on this guy side but fear does weird stuff to you Okay I feel you You giving her an excuse and I appreciate that. I want her love to be pure. I think it is. They have four kids. I mean, it has to be. It better be. Emma, get your husband to write in about what his thoughts were that day. We'd love to hear it. We'll give him his own equal time. Another great ocean story. This subject line of this email is saved from a tiger shark by dolphins. Oh. Come on. This is a Lisa Frank story. Karen Georgia, Stephen, and Critters. I'm a scuba diver based in Nebraska. And then in parentheses it says, yes, I know. Who's obsessed with many, many sea critters to involve sharks of all kinds, toothy and toothless alike. So I have to preface this with a couple of hills that I will die upon. One, sharks are a vital part of the global ecosystem. We didn't say to kill all the sharks. Listen, no one, don't lecture us. Of the global ecosystem and villainizing them only promotes the myth that they're voracious man-eaters. They are, but we still like them. Absolutely are. Number two, two sharks. Humans don't look, smell, or taste like food. Most of the attack instances, Emma, please, please play this part for your husband. Most of the attack instances occur when humans are in situations where we look like they're food, turtles and seals, or the shark is very young and reckless. Picture a little shark with a douchey oversized tee. They just don't know any better. Backwards hat. Yeah. Hey, man, I'm being cool in the ocean. Okay, now for the shark story. I was on a live aboard dive boat. Oh, sorry. I was on a live aboard dive boat. What the? I don't know what any of that is. Like you live on it. Live aboard dive boat. A live aboard dive boat where our whole goal was to see as many tiger sharks as possible. So I was definitely putting myself out there as far as attacks go. Tigers are large, intelligent sharks that have beautiful striped patterns on their skin. We had very strict guidelines as to how we could interact with the sharks. And we spent nearly eight hours a day underwater watching these beautiful creatures. We were on a dive where one specific tiger shark named Allison. All the tigers and hammerheads have names and the crew on the boat knows all of them. Allison is the funniest name for a shark. That's my shark, Allison. Yeah. Old Allison, she's fine. She bites a little bit. It's not that big. She didn't nibble. Her teeth are gorgeous. So Allison was swimming around us. She's a regular for this boat and was clearly very comfortable around divers. We were all taking pictures of her and admiring how beautifully she moves through the water when all of a sudden three dolphins appeared and started squeaking and playing around us. Everyone freaked out. Dolphins were not common on the site we were diving, and our attention totally shifted from Allison to these spotted dolphins. Oh, my God. So it says after 400 dives, I've never seen dolphins before. Wow. Nebraska. So I was 100% losing my mind taking photos and ended up breathing a little heavier than normal. I was getting low on air, so I had to go back to the boat to refill my scuba cylinder. Good diving practice. God damn it. Do not lecture us about diving practices. Good diving practice includes doing a safety stop at 15 feet to allow your body to release nitrogen buildup that accumulates while you're breathing compressed air underwater. So there I was hanging out all by my lonesome when Allison became a little less interested in the group of divers on the seafloor and a little more interested in me. Oh, no. Now, I know it's unlikely that Allison is really coming after me, but she's getting pretty close. It only takes one curious bite from her multiple rows of hooked sawing teeth to do some really serious damage. So now you're afraid of sharks. You're not allowed to be. You can't pick and choose when they're good and when they're bad. What's the thing we're learning? It's when it's about her. that's when she's like actually she's a shark apologist and i am not here for it so it says at this point she's five feet away from me no so like a little further than this and i'm sweating into my wetsuit i turn a little so i'm facing her head on and then from the corner of my eye i see three dolphins coming toward me from the side and they swarm allison steering her away from me allowing me to finish my stop and get to the surface. She's got pictures of all of this happening. So I got on the boat, told everyone within shouting distance what had happened, refilled my cylinder and got right back in there to see more sharks because goonies never say die. But people do and sharks do. I'm so thrilled that my sister Ellie bugged me, another sister, until I listened to your podcast. I was instantly hooked and hounded my best friend until she started listening last week. Now we all nerd out over our favorite moments. Stay sexy and save our seas, Katie. And look at this last picture. It's literally the dolphins escorting Allison out of the area. I love that they were like, no, no, man, it's not worth it. Like holding her back. No, no, no, man, don't do it. Allison, don't do it. Don't do it. Don't ruin this whole thing we got going. Like who is she anyways? That was amazing. Right? Yes. Would you ever do that? Go into the water with sharks? I don't need to. I don't either. I like movies. I'll stay on the boat. I like movies. Let's go to dinner. I was going to say, I like boats, but I actually don't. So I don't even... I mean... Let's go to dinner. Let's go to dinner. Ever feel like you're being chased by the marriage police? Welcome to Boys and Girls, the podcast where dating isn't dating.

Listen to Rorschach, Murder at City Hall, starting on March 25th on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Okay. Hi to the two older sisters I wish I had. Aww. I know. This past summer— Until we steal your curling iron. Exactly. Yeah. This past summer, I took a trip to Nashville with my best friend. Now, I'm not really a nervous flyer anymore, but let's just say I still have main character moments where one tiny bum convinces me we are free falling from 30,000 feet. I don't know if that's main character energy or just fucking fear. True. Yeah. Now, because of this, I always try to distract myself with a movie or some music. So when I noticed a brand new Rewind episode had just been uploaded, I took it as a divine sign from the travel gods. I pressed play and settled in only to realize something sounds off. My AirPods must be breaking because everything is muffled. I crank the volume and I wiggle them around like an idiot. That's weird. I say out loud to absolutely no one because my friend is asleep, but whatever. Better a muffled murder podcast than listening to the engines and convincing myself we are plummeting. I listen to every noise. Okay. Well, you kind of have to. Sometimes there's noises where you're like, there's no way you're supposed to be making that noise. Right. And then you look at the flight attendant's face and if they look scared, then you should be scared. Exactly. Fast forward a bit. And Karen is in the middle of vividly describing a murder like CSI could never levels of detail. After a few strange looks from fellow passengers, I decide I'm going to ask the flight attendant for a drink. I take one AirPod out and suddenly think, huh, why can I hear Karen so clearly? Then it hits me to my absolute horror. One, my AirPods are not dying. Two, my volume is in fact all the way up. Three, I have been broadcasting a full-blown murder narration to the entire plane at 8 a.m. on a Thursday. Many people don't like true crime. You have to remember this. The odd looks weren't judgy. They were looks of people genuinely wondering if they should alert an air marshal. This made for a very awkward walk off the plane once we made it to our destination. Stay sexy and maybe make sure your AirPods are connected before starting your murder podcast. All my love, Erica. Erica. erica there has to be a lot of people who have done that it must be right there's i've heard about it a lot of like it comes on when they're like in a drive-thru or something or like when you yeah when the valet i just really made myself sound stupid with what saying when you're in the valet and the music starts at like any of your car connects and yeah and suddenly the guy's like what i like is that i'm getting a little bit of secondhand embarrassment because it's like i was sitting on that plane yelling at the top of my lungs about something horrible. Kind of you, yeah. Kind of is me. Okay, here's my last one. Quickie. So their first line is as if I did read this subject line, but I'm just going to save it because it starts, yep. And then it says, was in the Bahamas visiting my then boyfriend's family, went out for drinks, had just the right amount of Bahama mamas to totter over, and in my most excellent drunk Karen voice, asked Tommy Lee Jones for a picture. No. Because, quote, my mom would kill me if I didn't ask you. I gave my phone to the bartender. And just before he took the picture, Tommy Lee Jones says very loudly, for God's sake, sit up straight. Your posture is terrible. Oh, my God. You got posture shamed by Tommy. I thought it wasn't going to be him at all. But no, that's him. It's him. And he doesn't approve. The whole situation still makes me cringe. I did send the photo to my mom, who really would have killed me if I didn't ask, because she loves the fugitive. I mean, who doesn't? One of the most perfect movies. But honestly, not worth it. My posture was indeed pretty terrible on account of being blacked the fuck out. That's how drunk she was. Oh, no. We also both look miserable since I had just had my feelings hurt. And Tommy Lee Jones pretty much always looks a bit cranky. SSDGM Michelle. Oh, my God. A Bahama Tommy Lee Jones. A Bahama Tommy Lee Jones. What have we seen? Oh, my God. There he is. He's there and he's pissed. He's so mad. He's telling us to sit. Sit up. Shoulders back. Well, that was the inaugural podcast at the studio. Yeah. What an honor. What an honor to be here. Thank you to Baja Mar for having us. Yes. At this beautiful. Now we just get a party for the next couple of days. I know. And meet one of those guys. Pink Flamangos and Macaws. Oh, yeah. So many things. Thanks to everybody who worked on this beautiful studio.
