Podcasts about Trevin

The confessions are back, and this time we're discovering just how sinful true crime fans can be. Joined by true crime creator Abby Blabby (Abby Escobar), Trevin and Amanda open the Crime Con confession box and read anonymous (and occasionally very identifiable) submissions collected from attendees in Las Vegas. From petty theft and self-checkout "accidents" to dine-and-dashes, unpaid tolls, petting zoo break-ins, workplace mischief, and revenge plots involving dog poop and a cheating ex, these confessions prove that even true crime fans have a criminal side. Before diving into the confessions, Trevin explains why Shark Tank is no longer his favorite comfort viewing after one too many billionaire success stories. Amanda deals with the aftermath of a powerful storm that took down one of her massive trees. And Abby shares an unforgettable Dreadful Dilemma involving a first date, a perfect bathroom, and a gastrointestinal emergency that quickly spiraled out of control. Then it's time to read the confessions, judge the crimes, and discover what happens when the audience becomes the suspect. Featuring petty theft, petty revenge, questionable life choices, and some of the funniest stories to come out of Crime Con Las Vegas.

We're back from CrimeCon 2026 in Las Vegas, and we've got stories to tell. This week, Amanda and Trevin recap their trip to Sin City, including our live show with Dating Detectives and Generation WHY, the highs and lows of CrimeCon, Amanda's poolside adventures at Caesars Palace, Trevin's failed quest to visit a dispensary, and an unexpected overnight stay in the wrong airport. Then it's time for some long-overdue criminal updates as we revisit three unforgettable cases from the Live, Laugh, Larceny archives. First, we check in on Justin Timberlake's infamous DUI arrest and the newly released footage of his field sobriety test—the same arrest that nearly "ruined the tour." Next, we return to California's bizarre "Operation Bear Claw" insurance scam, where fraudsters used a person in a bear costume to stage attacks on luxury vehicles in an attempt to collect nearly $142,000 in fraudulent insurance claims. Sentences have finally been handed down, and we're still thinking about that incredible dad-rock soundtrack. Finally, we revisit the Massachusetts woman who attempted to stop an eviction by unleashing a swarm of honeybees on deputies and civilians. Nearly four years later, a jury has reached its verdict. Vegas stories, criminal consequences, and one of the strangest update episodes we've ever done. Cases revisited from the LLL archives:• EP 165: This is Going to Ruin the Tour – Justin Timberlake's DUI Arrest• EP 183: When Squirrels Collide – Operation Bear Claw• EP 84: Buffalo Jills and the Buffalo Who Buffalo – The Bee Eviction Case

While Trevin and Amanda recover from CrimeCon, our friend Shea from Rainy Day Rabbit Holes stops by to tell us a tale that just might involve an alien encounter. But first, the crew shares what's chapping their asses this week. Shea's husband has terrible dishwasher etiquette and continues wasting valuable dish space. Trevin can't figure out why restaurants stopped using drive-thru speakers in favor of sending employees outside into the summer heat. And Amanda has found herself haunted by the same cheesy reality-TV soundtrack song across multiple different shows. Then, Shea welcomes us to the Summer of Saucers with one of the strangest UFO stories ever reported. In 1961, a Wisconsin plumber claimed a flying saucer landed in his driveway. The occupants didn't abduct him, probe him, or deliver a warning for humanity. They asked for water... and gave him pancakes. Was it a hoax? A hallucination? Or was Joe Simonton really standing in his driveway holding extraterrestrial breakfast food? Take a break from the heavy and get petty... and possibly intergalactic.

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.

Grab your buzzers — it's time for true crime trivia chaos. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Katie and Kimberly from A Date with Dateline join Trevin and Amanda for a custom-made game show all about Dateline NBC. Before the game begins, Trevin questions the existence of leftover macarons after a recent girls' night, Amanda embraces her childlike obsession with her new bike, Katie deals with cat acne, and Kimberly accidentally enrages comic book fans after falling for fake lore involving Tony Stark and Thanos. Then it's time for Dateline Jeopardy. The hosts battle through categories covering Keith Morrison's legendary narration style, Dateline history, bizarre true crime cases, famous evidence reveals, Dateline podcasts, and unforgettable criminals. Topics include: Matthew Perry's connection to Keith Morrison Bill Hader's famous impression Taylor Swift's love of Dateline Zombie beliefs in Mommy Doomsday The Golden State Killer investigation breakthrough Pam Hupp and The Thing About Pam Fake mustaches, penguin costumes, bucket hats, and murder evidence that sounds completely made up The game ends with one final question about the evolution of Dateline's iconic intro music. From Keith Morrison impressions to bizarre murder clues, this episode is packed with true crime nostalgia, absurd trivia, and petty chaos.

Mother's Day is here… and somehow, men are making it worse. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Trevin and Amanda dive into chaotic stories, strange headlines, and petty crimes that prove no holiday is safe. Trevin vents about Reddit and its anti–community-building ways, while Amanda survives planning a Paw Patrol and ponies birthday party. For Two Truths and a Lie, Amanda celebrates Mother Nature with unbelievable tornado facts, while Trevin brings prank-related chaos involving George Clooney, Michael Jackson, politics, and poop. Amanda's story heads to South Fulton, Georgia, where a viral school lunch photo featuring a Cutwater Lemon Drop Martini sparks questions — and an imaginative origin story of how it got there. Trevin takes us to Al Musanaa, Oman, where a camel beauty pageant becomes a bizarre reflection of masculinity and competition, as men push animals to extremes with cosmetic enhancements — leading to a Botox scandal that exposes just how far patriarchal standards of “beauty” can go. From questionable parenting moments to over-the-top displays of masculinity, this episode proves Mother's Day can get messy.

When petty criminals panic… they run. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Trevin and Amanda explore chaotic escape attempts, strange history, and petty crime stories where fleeing only makes things worse. Trevin deals with a bedtime dilemma as his cat turns cuddles into sleep deprivation, while Amanda admits to driving on expired tags — despite constant pressure from the cops at her workplace. Killer Facts highlights Dorothy Dietrich, a pioneering female escape artist known for performing a bullet catch with her teeth, while Trevin explores Jamtara, India — widely known as a hub for phishing scams and cybercrime. Amanda's story takes us to Muskegon Heights, Michigan, where Kendra Aney escalates a drug-related incident by breaking out of a police car in a desperate attempt to flee. Trevin heads to Charleston, South Carolina, where a haunted carriage tour with Palmetto Carriage Works takes a bizarre turn when Nicole Wells' encounter introduces something far less historical — and far more chaotic — than expected. From prison breaks to panicked getaways, this episode proves running from the problem rarely ends well.

We're taking a tour through celebrity crime — no Taylor Swift required. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Kylie Talamantez of Crime with Kylie joins Trevin and Amanda for a custom game built just for her: Kylie's Eras Tour — where celebrity scandals meet chaotic timelines. Before the game, Trevin rediscovers his love for Love on the Spectrum, Amanda fully commits to becoming a Crocs household, and Kylie vents about American Girl quality changes and the spread of “Mattel pink.” Then it's time for Kylie's Eras Tour. From Prince stealing a megaphone mid-tour to Matthew McConaughey's naked bongo arrest, Reese Witherspoon asking “do you know who I am?”, Winona Ryder's shoplifting case, Bill Murray's airport incident, and Ariana Grande's infamous donut scandal — Kylie has to place each crime in the correct “era” of their career. The final round pushes things even further, blending Tim Allen's real-life past with his sitcom future in a chaotic design challenge. After the game, Kylie shares her own experiences with crime and what it's like living in San Francisco. From celebrity scandals to absurd timelines, this episode proves crime never goes out of style.

Most frameworks for working with AI agents assume humans should stay in the loop at every phase. That's the wrong approach, says Cora general manager Kieran Klaassen.Kieran is the creator of Every's AI-native engineering methodology, compound engineering. His four-step framework—plan, work, review, compound—rebuilds how engineers work with agents. The insight, worked out with collaborator Trevin Chow, is about when to be in the loop and when to step away and let the model handle it. "LLMs are very good at just following steps, doing deep work, working for hours—days even now," Kieran says. "That thing is kind of solved."Kieran and Trevin describe an AI workflow as a sandwich. Agents are the workhorse filling, and humans are the bread, responsible for framing the problem at the start and reviewing the outputs at the end. Every CEO Dan Shipper talked with Kieran for AI & I about why setting the frame of a problem is still hard for agents, why simulated personas won't replace human judgment, Dan's bar for AGI—an agent worth running 24/7 with no off switch—and what Kieran's background as a classical composer taught him about performance, polish, and finding the parts of work that bring you joy.If you found this episode interesting, please like, subscribe, comment, and share!Head to http://granola.ai/every and get 3 months free with the code EVERYTo hear more from Dan Shipper:Subscribe to Every: https://every.to/subscribe Follow him on X: https://twitter.com/danshipper Compound engineering plugin: https://github.com/EveryInc/compound-engineering-pluginCompound engineering guide: https://every.to/source-code/compound-engineering-the-definitive-guideCompound engineering camp: https://every.to/source-code/compound-engineering-camp-every-step-from-scratchDiscover more resources in the episodeTimestamps:   00:00:00 – Introduction and the AI sandwich metaphor 00:02:33 – What compound engineering is and how it's evolved 00:04:27 – The "work" phase of agentic coding is essentially solved 00:06:27 – Why humans belong at the beginning and the end of an AI workflow 00:11:06 – Dan's argument for why agents can't change frames—and how this will keep us employed 00:16:51 – Full automation is a moving target 00:23:21 – Musical composition as a model for human-AI collaboration 00:26:39 – Find your place in an AI-accelerated world by leaning into what brings you joy

It's time for our annual 420 special — and things are getting elevated. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Trevin and Amanda celebrate with chaotic stories, munchie-fueled dilemmas, and drug-related petty crimes. Trevin's taco night dilemma leads to a surprising discovery: mini taco shells might be the ultimate munchies snack. Amanda brings the cravings too, diving into the new McDonald's K-pop meal and lamenting a missed sauce opportunity. For a special one-time segment, the crew shares their dream blunt rotation — from Kid Cudi to a mix of comedy and music influences that are nearly impossible to narrow down. Amanda's story follows Afroman (Joseph Foreman) and the fallout from a police raid on his home, the music it inspired, and the legal battle that followed. Trevin takes us to the UK, where Ian Cloughton turned Home Alone into a criminal blueprint — using booby traps and DIY security to protect his drug operation. From raids to ridiculous decisions, this 420 episode proves crime and creativity don't always mix.

Things are about to get nasty — and in these stories, anything can be planted anywhere. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Trevin and Amanda dive into chaotic headlines, reality TV drama, and some of the grossest petty crimes yet. Trevin vents about Kansas City traffic after a major bridge shutdown, while Amanda spirals over reality TV chaos as Taylor Frankie Paul shakes up both The Bachelorette and The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. For Two Truths and a Lie, Trevin brings bizarre traffic-related facts involving Frank Sinatra, wolf populations, and the Seinfeld finale, while Amanda explores the strange history of Charles II of Spain and the extreme consequences of royal inbreeding. Trevin's story heads to Towson, Maryland, where Christopher Carroll's behavior at a fire station escalates into a disturbing and unsanitary series of acts involving shared items and an audience. Amanda brings us to Newport Beach, where 53-year-old Michael David Meek repeatedly targets Roger's Gardens — leading to an unexpected hero and some very creative surveillance tactics. From reality TV scandals to truly gross crimes, this episode proves some things should never be planted.

Your Disney Channel nostalgia is about to take a hit. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, stand-up comedian Arijana Ramic joins Trevin and Amanda for a deep dive into Disney Channel stars, celebrity crimes, and chaotic real-life stories. Arijana shares her 10-year stand-up journey and how writing led her to the stage, while Trevin brings a dilemma about the Instagram algorithm turning stand-up comedy into static content. Amanda recaps a work party wardrobe struggle that ends with an unexpected “I ❤️ sluts” shirt sighting, and Arijana vents about the universal annoyance of noise pollution. Then it's time for Jailhouse of Mouse, a custom game where Disney Channel stars meet their criminal records. From Shia LaBeouf's first arrest at age nine to scandals involving the Jonas Brothers, a fake ID incident at Coachella, and appearances from Zac Efron and the cast of High School Musical, the crew revisits the wild side of childhood icons — including a shared love for Hannah Montana. To close, Arijana shares her own real-life story of being the victim of a petty crime after discovering an arsonist on her patio — and why trusting your gut matters. From Disney Channel scandals to real-world chaos, this episode proves even your childhood favorites aren't safe from petty crime.

Animals, disguises, and terrible decisions. This one gets messy. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Trevin and Amanda dive into petty crime, strange science, and chaotic storytelling. Trevin resists a new “Ocean Wave” light projector before realizing it might actually help his executive function, while Amanda attends a Valentine's party that quickly turns into a drunken adventure involving aerial hoops and questionable decisions. Killer Facts explores the internet's favorite amphibian, the axolotl, and why it's suddenly everywhere, while Trevin shares a bizarre scientific development involving early research into “butt-breathing” and human trials. For stories, Amanda takes us to Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, where a group of teens — some dressed in Care Bear onesies — break into an abandoned Radisson hotel during a chaotic sleepover night. Trevin heads to Bangkok, Thailand, where a police commander's jewels are stolen multiple times, leading authorities to go undercover in disguise — including a traditional lion costume tied to Lunar New Year — in an attempt to catch the thief. From animal obsessions to costume crimes, both stories connect through marker-covered faces and questionable decisions.

No death. Just chaos. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Trevin and Amanda break down bizarre headlines and ridiculous real-world stories that prove the news is often stranger than fiction. Amanda reacts to recent extreme weather, describing massive hail damage as “frozen destruction,” while Trevin and Amanda dive into a series of absurd and chaotic news stories from around the world. From Glasgow, a bizarre incident involving an unexpected and very aggressive encounter is described as “full force, big boot… maximum disrespect.” With a mix of strange crime, weird news, and unbelievable moments, this episode delivers pure headline chaos without the heavy.

It's time for another all-listener episode. In this installment of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, we dive into listener stories, embarrassing moments, and petty crime chaos submitted by the crew. Trevin starts the episode with a thrift store date gone wrong when a sudden puke attack turns him into an accidental accomplice to a petty crime. Amanda reflects on the new documentary Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model, revisiting early 2000s modeling culture and sharing some of her own early modeling photos — including the surprising label of “plus-sized” model at the time. Listener dilemmas include Kelly saying goodbye to her dog Roscoe, Emily P. preparing for a karate competition while dealing with an injury, Autumn M. navigating a tricky corporate management situation, cold-weather mishaps from Kristine N. and Casey N., and Emily S. accidentally leaving an embarrassing journal entry open for her Rover pet sitter. Then it's time for the listener stories. Trevin shares a high school story from Katie H. that starts with Taco Bell and ends with an embarrassing fart, a breakup, revenge by cheese, and an unexpected police encounter. Amanda tells a story from an anonymous listener whose wildlife critter cam captured more than Midwest animals — it also caught the person responsible for damaging the camera. From sharts to surveillance cameras, this listener episode proves once again that real life is often stranger — and pettier — than fiction.

Huzzah! Another week of petty crime chaos is upon us. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Amanda takes us back to the Renaissance — from medieval period problems to terrifying torture devices — while Trevin seeks advice for his lifelong nail-biting habit and delivers a strange-but-true Two Truths and a Lie about fingernails. Amanda's Two Truths and a Lie dives into infamous medieval torture devices before bringing us to the Colorado Renaissance Festival in Larkspur, Colorado, where 22-year-old Connor Ward allegedly crashed a live jousting performance and attempted to steal a knight's sword mid-tournament. Trevin's story heads to Kent County, Michigan, where 51-year-old Shannon Soltys was charged after allegedly forging attorney-client mail to smuggle narcotics into the Kent County Jail, leading to arrests on Trenton Avenue in Cedar Springs. From jousting theft to forged jail mail, this episode proves that crime can span centuries — but it's always petty.

Florida February ends the only way it can: with a party that goes completely off the rails. In this finale episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, we cover a Florida police chase in Seminole County involving Jennifer Kaufman, Jamie Young, and Erin Thomas, who allegedly stole a car while searching for a party — only for one suspect to end up cornered in a pasture by cows. Trevin shares a listener story from A-Line about a chaotic 22nd birthday featuring a party mom, too much alcohol, a bottle of Grey Goose, and a chair-wielding fight with a pseudo-uncle that escalates fast. Before the crimes, Trevin tackles unexpected “man work” with a furnace repair while Amanda visits the University of Kansas (KU) campus for a college basketball game — where a Westboro Baptist Church protest turns into awkward karaoke. The crew also plays Florida trivia, covering the 3,500-year-old bald cypress known as The Senator in Longwood and the history of the Conch Republic, the Florida Keys region that briefly seceded from the United States, declared war, and immediately requested foreign aid. From drug-fueled bad decisions to birthday party brawls, this Florida February Finale proves that if you party in Florida long enough… the cows will come home. Today's Stories: Utterly Foolish A-Line's 22nd Birthday

Nothing good happens in Florida after dark. In this week's episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, we cover late-night Florida man chaos in Ocala, Kissimmee, and Lakeland. Trevin shares his first emergency room experience before diving into Florida-themed Two Truths and a Lie focused on Florida geography, Tampa Bay heat history, and the Cross-Florida Ship Canal. Amanda counters with Two Truths and a Lie about manatees (aka sea cows), covering their biology and bizarre historical lore — plus a wholesome update where an old neighbor gifts her a 100-year-old piano. Then Fast Florida takes a darker turn when 61-year-old Antonio Roman in Ocala allegedly set his sprinkler system to spray disabled children at a nearby bus stop. Storytime continues in Kissimmee's Windsor Hills Resort, where 51-year-old Kevin Westerhold was arrested after allegedly performing nude around his Airbnb. Finally, in Lakeland, 33-year-old Anthony Lewis stole sandhill crane statues in a Valentine's-inspired attempt to win back his on-again, off-again girlfriend. From neighborhood nightmares to naked nuisances, these nocturnal Florida men prove one thing: never trust Florida when the lights go out.

If you thought last week's Florida true crimes couldn't get any dumber, buckle up—these Florida men on two wheels are about to outdo themselves. Florida February continues. Trevin opens with a full-on potty meltdown when his Wet Weather Diva, Sammy, refuses to use the bathroom in the rain. What begins as an inspirational pep talk escalates into a backyard cheer routine that Trevin documents on Instagram like a proud stage dad. Amanda brings her own dog dilemma as Reptar keeps army-crawling under the kids' bunk bed, choosing chaos over comfort. Fast Florida heads to New Port Richey, where a crew of Pasco County inmates flips the script during community service—breaking into a locked car to rescue a one-year-old baby while dressed like classic cartoon jailbirds. From zero to hero in record time. You go, Pasco County. In Florida Top Five, Trevin counts down the wildest world records held by the Sunshine State: the shortest donkey, the tallest sangria, the largest gathering of Ninja Turtles, and some truly next-level Easter enthusiasm. Amanda answers with the Top Five Weirdest Florida Food Festivals—celebrating mullets (the fish, not the haircut), strawberries on pizza, the impossible-to-pronounce kumquat, and the legendary Floridian “cracker delicacy,” swamp cabbage. For our stories, Trevin delivers a crowd-pleaser as One-Nut Tony relocates to Marco Island. A peaceful e-bike ride goes sideways when Steven Pickett brake-checks him, triggering a hit-and-run, a golf-cart dragging, and a chain of bad decisions that may pull Tony right back into crime. Amanda closes with the unbelievable saga of Ray Reza Baluchi, the Fort Lauderdale dreamer determined to “run on water.” His homemade Hydro Pod—and self-appointed title of Captain Bubble—aren't enough to keep the Coast Guard happy, proving that even international waters have rules. When you're manifestly unsafe, there's no outrunning the law. Both stories collide around bicycles and truly bizarre moments involving them. Put on your helmet before these two—things get dangerous.

Welcome to the second annual Florida February, where the stories get dumber, the dramatics get louder, and our sound-FX machine is working overtime. Trevin falls for another brilliant marketing trap courtesy of Lil Dicky's Buzzballs commercials and arrives with a “celebratory” beverage. Amanda dresses up for a fancy work New Year party, only to crash in her makeup and wake up with her acne in full goblin mode. We kick things off with Killer Facts from the Sunshine State. Amanda spotlights the adorable oddity of the world's smallest police station in Carrabelle, Florida, while Trevin heads to Quincy, where Pat Munroe's Coca-Cola hunch turned a tiny town into a community of soda millionaires. Our first story dives into the Wreck Bar in Fort Lauderdale, home to performing mermaids Whitney Fair and Mia Mellies. Their years-long rivalry involves nudity, alleged witchcraft, and multiple visits from law enforcement. You may have seen this case on HBO's It's Florida, Man—but you've never heard it like this. And yes, we've got an update.

The final episode of Dry January is here, and just like last year, we're ending it with an honest conversation instead of a story. During a break from writing petty crime, Trevin spent time reflecting on something he was raised to avoid: politics. Growing up in a polite, Midwestern family, he learned early that talking about politics was seen as divisive, impolite, and unnecessary — a rule meant to keep the peace. But over time, that silence came with consequences. That reflection turned into two personal essays — We Don't Talk About Politics and Why We Don't Talk About Politics — exploring how avoidance shapes families, relationships, identity, and power. The pieces examine how silence can make people vulnerable to misinformation, how overcomplication and busyness discourage engagement, and how institutions benefit when everyday people are taught that understanding politics is “for someone smarter.” In this episode, Trevin and Amanda sit down to unpack those ideas together. They talk about Amanda's early experiences with politics, how each of them was taught to engage (or disengage), and how avoiding difficult conversations doesn't make problems disappear — it just lets someone else speak for you. They also explore how this silence affects more than just families. When any subject is treated as shameful or off-limits — politics, money, masculinity, mental health — people are left unprepared to protect themselves, their relationships, and their futures. This isn't a debate episode. It's a conversation about communication, power, and what happens when “keeping the peace” costs us our voices. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, unqualified, or afraid to speak up because you assumed everyone else had it figured out — this one's for you. Let's talk about politics. https://medium.com/@fiestamaiden/we-dont-talk-about-politics-856dc0a076d1 https://medium.com/@fiestamaiden/why-we-dont-talk-about-politics-e2686d89dba5 Join our Facebook Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/livelaughlarcenydoomedcrew⁠⁠⁠ For ad-free episodes and lots of other bonus content, join our Patreon! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/LiveLaughLarceny⁠⁠⁠ Check out our website: ⁠⁠⁠Here⁠⁠⁠  Follow us on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠Here⁠⁠⁠  Follow us on Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠Here⁠⁠⁠  Follow us on TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠Here⁠⁠⁠  Follow us on Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠Here⁠⁠⁠   If you have a crime you'd like to hear on our show OR have a personal petty story, email us at ⁠⁠⁠livelaughlarceny@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠ or send us a DM on any of our socials!

Dry January continues as the Live, Laugh, Larceny crew opens the floor to listener questions for our most behind-the-scenes episode yet. Trevin comes clean about a secret he's been sitting on—and the dilemma that comes with committing to yet another creative project. Hear about his new concept album goal, why Big Sexy Fear might become the greatest album of all time, and the terrifying reality of publicly announcing creative ambition. Amanda shares a betrayal so cruel it can only be described as culinary malpractice. This isn't about missing ketchup. This is about a full order of Chinese food arriving with sweet and sour chicken… and no sauce. RIP to the saucy queen. Trevin finally brings in two long-forgotten listener dilemmas, including misunderstanding “viewer discretion advised” as a kid and receiving a deeply unsettling DM from a Facebook profile that may—or may not—be stalking him. Then it's time for questions from the Doomed Crew. Listener Tawny officially challenges Papa Dennis to appear on Live, Laugh, Larceny. But will he accept? We also dive into the funniest and most memorable moments from Trevin and Amanda's real-life friendship: – Amanda being at her absolute funniest during her first pregnancy – Trevin feeling a baby kick – Amanda's karaoke strategy (and survival tactics) A loaded question about pets leads to stories about Amanda's collies, Reptar and Yoshi, while Trevin walks through the full timeline of his cats—Freddy, Boots, and Harvey—including a moment where Boots' curiosity almost lived up to the phrase “killed the cat.” Plus: Who would play the hosts in a Hollywood adaptation of Live, Laugh, Larceny? What do we actually hope listeners get from the show, beyond entertainment? Are there petty crimes we'll never admit to on the podcast? Trevin shares a personal story that could someday become a trilogy, and we close with an honest conversation about how we're all coping during… whatever this era is.

If 2025 was double the disaster, we're here to remember it with double the fun! Part 2 of the pettiest award show around is packed with more dilemmas, more laughs, and the final categories celebrating the best (and worst) of 2025. Trevin faces an ergonomic nightmare when his gel wrist cushion for his mouse starts leaking—a truly sticky situation. Amanda has a stinky dilemma of her own when her dog Yoshi misses the mark… and lands it directly on her children's favorite stuffed narwhal. Then, it's time for the last round of the 2025 Petties Awards: WTF Crime, Best Episode Title, Best Character, Parenting Dilemma, and the infamous Best Florida February Criminal. Finally, we revisit Amanda's favorite story of 2025 and dive into why it earned the top spot. Celebrate the chaos, the crimes, and the hilarity one last time before we officially close the chapter on 2025.

This week we're showcasing our friends Trevin & Amanda - the hosts of Live, Laugh, Larceny.  Two petty crimes. Zero chill. And reactions so bad, they'd make Coldplay blush.This week, Amanda drops by before her second vacation in two weeks—and Trevin has his own vacation drama to share. His first time riding a bike as an adult turns into a near panic attack in a quaint ocean community, while Amanda faces a Beaver Lake, Arkansas dilemma when her husband's massive truck can't conquer the rocky terrain of a pebble beach.In Killer Facts, Amanda digs up a bizarre audio mystery from 1997: “The Bloop.” This ultra-low-frequency, high-amplitude underwater sound had scientists speculating about a giant sea creature… but the real answer is far less thrilling—and way more depressing. Trevin, meanwhile, finds fashion trends in the most unexpected place: captive chimps. From grass-in-ear accessories to sticking a blade somewhere it definitely shouldn't go, these primates are setting wild new style standards.Amanda also retells a viral scandal you think you know—the Coldplay kiss-cam controversy at Gillette Stadium. Astronomer CEO Andy Byron's very public moment with Kristen Cabot sent shockwaves through social media, and Amanda serves up the drama with her own twist.Trevin closes the episode with the poetic (and chaotic) saga of Florida woman Cynthia Sosa, a chicken in the road, road rage, and a can of bear mace. When Sosa crosses paths with Perla DeMiller, bad decisions are inevitable.Both stories are tied together by unexpected reactions, petty crimes, and a flair for the dramatic. So underthink, overreact, and join us for two tales where making it worse is half the fun.Today's petty crime stories:Caught with Your Pants DownWhy Did the Chicken Cross the Road?Join our Facebook Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/livelaughlarcenydoomedcrew⁠⁠⁠⁠If you have a crime you'd like to hear on our show OR have a personal petty story, email us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠livelaughlarceny@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ or send us a DM on any of our socials!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pnw-haunts-homicides--5955451/support.

It's a new year, which means it's time to emotionally process one of the worst years of our lives… by celebrating the best crimes of 2025. Before the awards begin, Trevin and Amanda ease back into things with fresh dilemmas after not seeing each other for a while. Trevin recounts a Christmas mishap involving his new rescue pup, Sammy—starting with her epic glow-up since adoption and ending with a Christmas morning escape that sparks a long, stressful search. Amanda shares her own holiday chaos, when the infamous 2025 Christmas sickness wiped out her entire family and turned their break into an extended quarantine. Then it's time for the first five categories of the 2025 Petties Awards. Who delivered the most dreadful dilemma of the year? What were each host's most killer facts? Trevin pulls back the curtain on how he produces the show, including a behind-the-scenes look at the first major audio mistake in nearly five years of Live, Laugh, Larceny. Plus, the award for Best Naked Criminal leads to an unsettling realization: was 2025… the least sexy year on record? To close things out, Trevin revisits his favorite story of 2025, listening back with Amanda and breaking down why it stuck with him. Was it the man who faked his own death? Zin Zhang and the infamous cold chicken? Or the Florida boy who called the cops to ask why they hadn't found him yet? Tune in for Part 1 of the 2025 Petties, then come back next week for the remaining categories and Amanda's favorite story of the year. Bring on the Petties—because 2026 already has plenty of criminals waiting in the wings.

The crew is here—and they brought friends. This week, Amanda and Trevin are joined by Em Schulz and Christine Schiefer, the hosts of the hit paranormal and true crime comedy podcast And That's Why We Drink, for an all-star crossover episode full of petty crimes, questionable decisions, and maybe a ghost or two. Things kick off with an All-Star Dilemmas segment. Trevin recounts a run-in with an angry bald man in Kansas City traffic—and the deeply petty revenge that followed. Amanda's past comes back to haunt her when her daughter rescues a pair of heart-shaped nipple pasties from the trash and proudly adds them to a wall mural. Christine becomes convinced Amanda's daughter Lyla may secretly be BANKSY. Em and Christine bring their own dilemmas to the table. Em faces the ultimate horror: a cruise with their mom and husband… all while sharing a room. Christine opens up about a therapist-recommended book, The Untethered Soul, and how, with the help of an edible, she finally met her inner voice—only to discover it is extremely annoying. Then, the crew debuts an original game created just for ATWWD: Petty or Paranormal. Em and Christine must decide whether a series of increasingly bizarre scenarios were caused by supernatural forces or extremely petty criminals. Topics include Mike Myers on a beach, dirty-talking ghosts, a grudge held beyond the grave, warnings from a time traveler, and attempting to marry a ghost in international waters. To close things out, Em confesses to a petty past involving urban exploring (or, as police might call it, breaking and entering). Christine attempts to incriminate Em through shared memories—only to accidentally point the finger back at herself—before telling an original story. Finally, Christine shares her own personal petty crime tale: The Coat Room Caper. In this kindergarten-era revenge story, a young Christine targets her classmates—especially one taller, more popular girl—proving that a life of petty crime can begin with something as simple as misplaced backpacks.

'Tis the season—and things are about to get decked. In this Christmas special episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny, Trevin witnesses capitalism for kids firsthand while volunteering with Junior Achievement BizTown, the company shaping young business minds. Even a Playskool-level version of the American economy somehow manages to be bleak. Meanwhile, Amanda gives her legs their first winter shave… with a weed whacker, and the crew dives into listener dilemmas. From a long-awaited “paint your spouse” anniversary date (with video evidence), to rude coworkers and seasonal body pains, it's the season of giving—and we're giving you a platform to complain. The crew also brings back the Naughty List, each revealing their personal picks for 2025. High cholesterol, vet offices, sausage patties, and the government all make appearances. Hear who made the list—and why they're so naughty. For stories, Trevin takes us to Hanes Mall in North Carolina, where Elsie Brooks, Selma Brooks, and Christina MacDonald just want to take their kids to see Santa. But a strict elf, Shannon Athena Watkins, has rules—and she expects them to be followed. Will this end in a Christmas miracle… or simple assault? Amanda follows with the long, storied life of Carol Christensen, a retired circus performer and stunt woman turned spreader of joy. With her biggest events behind her, she discovers that withholding joy from a police officer can still earn you a ride to the station.

This Christmas special is coming at you with three hos, as we're joined by one of the original true crime podcasters. Justin Evans from Generation WHY stops by to reminisce about his early podcasting days, survive a round of unhinged holiday dilemmas, and—most importantly—fix Christmas once and for all. But first: dilemmas.Trevin reveals a dirty little corporate secret after buying men's “pull-up” pants on clearance and wearing them to work—drawstring and all. Amanda gives her Santa house a red light bulb, accidentally turning her festive décor into something vaguely satanic. And Justin visits an ear, nose, and throat doctor, only to leave feeling violated, furious, and emotionally prepared for revenge. Then, things get serious.

We're going old school this week—straight to every millennial's favorite childhood battleground: the roller rink. Trevin kicks things off with a bizarre dream featuring Amanda, her husband, and a massive alligator. But when Dream Trevin tries to play hero, Real Trevin wakes up in a very familiar (and very painful) situation. Meanwhile, Amanda heads to a kid's birthday party at a roller rink. She shows up ready for nostalgia… but her mid-30s body is not ready to roll. Gravity absolutely has notes. Then it's time for Would You Rather. Amanda asks if you'd prefer a terrible-looking mugshot or a glamorous one where you're mid-sneeze. Trevin brings a year-end twist: would you rather every device you own insult you… or relive all of 2025 again? Amanda's story this week features a South Carolina teen who brings chaos to the rink—armed with confidence, questionable humor, and a water bottle full of cooking oil. Due to life being life, Trevin swaps his usual story for four headlines in what he calls his “Petty Black Mirror” segment. This week's petty tech tales include: • Facebook's underground sperm-selling groups and the petty drama inside Sperm Donors UK & Get Your Baby Dust Here. • An Ontario man tricked by ChatGPT into believing he'd discovered a world-saving breakthrough—sending him into psychosis. • The Kumma Bear, an AI-enabled teddy bear developing disturbing phrases and unsafe behaviors. • And an update to X's AI, Grok, that forces it to only compliment Elon Musk… leading trolls to prompt some very strange praise—including Elon's alleged skill of drinking pee. It's all fun-on-wheels meets dystopian tech weirdness this week. So lace up, log off, and join us for A Petty Skate of Affairs.

It's Thanksgiving Eve, and Amanda & Trevin are inviting you to their table a day early—just in time to practice a few conversations you might want to avoid at your own family gathering. This week, the crew actually gives thanks for a change. Trevin reflects on discovering Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation, and how the book connects to his family's history with masculinity. Amanda finds gratitude in her injured wrist, even writing a heartfelt (and hilarious) poem about all the good it brings into her life. To warm things up, they dive into Thanksgiving Trivia. Amanda quizzes Trevin about a returning character in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, leading to theories ranging from Shrek to Ronald McDonald—plus a dubious Spider-Man parade memory. Trevin's trivia topic exposes a viral Facebook article on the legal scams the platform feeds users daily, and the big money behind them. Then it's on to the main course: a full holiday platter of petty crimes, scams, chaos, and questionable choices. Tempe, AZ: LaVina Jackson is arrested after a Thanksgiving fight—then picked up from jail by her partner, Miguel Redshirt, in a stolen truck. Burlington, Ontario: A local man shares fake nudes of his ex-wife with a friend, leading to an unusual court decision. Lafayette, Louisiana: Walmart employees Stacey Dishman, Jordan Lee Dalton, and Abigail Lane cheat Black Friday promotions for extra cash. Hamilton, Ontario: A 36-year-old man steals a Hamilton Street Railway bus full of passengers… and heroically takes everyone to their correct stops (while denying unpaid riders). Bucks County, Philadelphia: Anthony Gisondi steals hundreds of dollars worth of frozen turkeys to pay for drugs—and someone unexpected takes him down.

On this episode of This vs. That, we sit down with Trevin Wax and Thomas West to explore their new book, The Gospel Way Catechism: 50 Truths that Take On the World. We discuss how catechisms serve as powerful tools for spiritual formation and discipleship in an ever-changing culture.Trevin and Thomas share the inspiration behind their work, drawing from the influence of Lesslie Newbigin and Tim Keller's concept of counter catechesis. We explore how their catechism is designed to counter dominant cultural narratives like expressive individualism and secularism, helping believers understand not just what Christians believe, but how those beliefs stand in contrast to the way of the world.The conversation unpacks key themes from the book, including the tension between freedom and submission to God, the nature of human identity and purpose, and how catechesis equips us to shine like stars in a crooked and perverse generation. We also discuss practical applications—from teenagers navigating secular education to professionals working in luxury brand marketing—showing how the gospel way provides a lens for faithful living in any context.

We may be out of October, but the tricks keep coming. This week, Trevin brings his cats back into the spotlight after buying a Kitty Kurlz Infinity Scratcher—a purchase that ends up impressing him far more than his feline children. Meanwhile, Amanda deals with a different kind of domestic chaos as every major appliance in her new home breaks at once. With no microwave, dishwasher, or dryer, she begins her reluctant journey into inner tradwife territory. Trevin's Killer Fact dives into unproven remedies and folklore, sparked by a recent article about an older Chinese woman who believed swallowing frogs had healing powers—and the painful consequences that followed. Amanda follows up with another bizarre historical phenomenon: the Kentucky Meat Shower of 1876. From theories about falling meat, to likely origins, to whether anyone actually tasted it, the mystery unfolds in all its unsettling glory. During Storytime, Trevin adapts a petty crime headline into a tale filled with grief, funerals, and emotional misdirection. After 74-year-old Mohan Lal unexpectedly passes away, his village gathers for a dramatic funeral procession that leads to the newly built crematorium—and an unexpected twist. Amanda then covers the case of Karen Clark, a St. Louis woman who spent eight years battling debt collectors and police calls after a bizarre identity theft. When a second Karen enters the picture, the confusion skyrockets. In this petty crime saga, two Karens might actually make a right. Both stories this week are tied together by fraud, deception, and identity mischief. So bring a sturdy umbrella—and trust no one—because it's raining meat and deceit.

After a wild spooky season, Trevin and Amanda slow things down with a laid-back episode full of laughs, pets, and petty crimes. Trevin opens up about his chaotic October — from grief and illness to missing everything from his anniversary to Saw: The Parody Musical and Amanda's Halloween party. Amanda catches him up with stories from her “Frights & Bites” cook-off, sharing what he missed and tying it to the bizarre 2019 case of Jacob William Rogge, who robbed a High's convenience store in Baldwin, Maryland, while dressed as a unicorn. To turn his luck around, Trevin shares how he rescued two Shelties, Sammy and October, finding healing through puppy love. The headlines this week include:

In this exclusive Amazon Accelerate Interview, I sat down with Trevin Peterson, one of the most recognized voices in the Amazon FBA space, to unpack the evolution of Amazon Ads - from the early days of basic Sponsored Products to today's full-funnel, content-driven ad ecosystem.   Trevin shares how he went from discovering FBA in 2017 to building multiple 7-figure brands, and reveals the biggest shifts every seller needs to understand heading into 2025, including:   Why video ads are the most undervalued opportunity on Amazon right now The difference between ACOS vs. TACOS (and why most sellers track the wrong metric) How to use Amazon Influencers and Creator Connections to boost conversions What makes Sponsored Brands and Sponsored Display essential for a complete ad funnel Why "trusting the process" matters when scaling profitably through PPC   Whether you're a beginner trying to understand Amazon advertising or a brand owner optimizing ad spend across multiple campaigns, this episode will help you see where the real leverage is hiding in 2025. #AmazonAds #AmazonAccelerate2025 #Ad

You've heard of East Coast vs. West Coast — but forget all that. This week, we're settling the real rivalry: the Midwest vs. the Pacific Northwest. Shea and Jody of Rainy Day Rabbit Holes, the podcast that uncovers the wild, weird, and wonderful hidden stories of the Pacific Northwest and beyond, join Trevin and Amanda for a four-round battle of regional pride, petty chaos, and pointless competition. Before the main event, our hosts bring their dreadful dilemmas, ranging from awkward public encounters with subtly racist strangers, being too busy for dog playdates, and making retirement plans far too early — plus, Amanda spots our modern-day muse, Chappell Roan, out in the wilds of Kansas City. Then, it's time for the Great Debate — a showdown across four over-the-top rounds: ⚔️ Round One: The Great Debate – Each team makes an absurdly passionate case for their homeland, backed by one bizarre local legend. From the Midwest's failed utopia of Fordlandia to Oregon's infamous exploding whale, chaos is the only constant.

This month, the gals are joined by Trevin from Live, Laugh, Larceny Podcast to discuss a wiener catastrophe, poop spray damage, Sierra's stains, litter at the country club, a food critic for the people, and the most accident-prone pastor you've ever heard of.

It's the Live, Laugh, Larceny Halloween special, and we're celebrating spooky season by getting down and dirty — deep in the bowels of October. This week, Trevin faces a full-blown Halloween dilemma after realizing spiders are the only creature he likes less when they have a big butt. Because, really — anything that plump and poisonous can't be trusted. Meanwhile, Amanda's questioning her life choices after watching the Is It Cake? Halloween special and realizing that hobbyists are somehow better at everything than she is. Our game this week is a frightful All Hallow's Eve edition of This or That, where Amanda forces Trevin to choose between the true terrors of October: slasher films or psychological horror? Cute or scary costumes? Carve or paint your pumpkins? Foggy nights or full moons? Scream franchise or Halloween classics? We're tackling every haunted dilemma that defines the season. For storytime, Amanda shares the eerie tale of Shannon Dennis and Tina Jamarillo of Barstow, California — two women who let the Halloween spirit possess them a little too much. After police receive reports of a dead body in the desert, these grown adults might just end up looking like real dummies. Trevin's story opens with a nomination for the scariest Halloween costume ever: a suit. In a chillingly relatable tale of corporate America, capitalism, and existential dread, meet Bo Whitener, a Georgia man working for McKesson's pharmaceutical distribution center. When a massive CEO pension check lands in the wrong hands, Bo decides to dress up as the big boss himself for the company Halloween party — a move that might earn him a police call, a suspension, or a long interrogation by a middle manager. Beyond the usual Halloween tropes, today's episode ties together Spirit Halloween, candy corn, and — most importantly — bowels. Put on your waterproof boots and light your jack-o'-lanterns, because this true petty crime and comedy podcast special dives deep — uncomfortably deep — into the bowels of spooky season.

Get ready for male camaraderie, frat culture, and team sports gone wild—because this week on Live, Laugh, Larceny, we're surrounded by bros! Trevin's week starts with a petty mystery straight out of his own phone history, as someone in Kansas City keeps using his number for real estate and house rental applications. Can the true culprit finally be found, or will this housing hustle haunt him forever? Amanda's parenting dilemma hits close to home when she realizes her daughter has mistaken her for a climbing gym and shoulder parrot. It's all about teaching kids boundaries, with the usual mix of deadpan humor and relatable chaos. In Two Truths and a Lie, Trevin goes dark with a game inspired by The Death of Stalin (IFC Films). Taking a spin through modern-day dictatorships, he delivers unbelievable headlines involving Vladimir Putin, Nicolás Maduro, and Kim Jong Un—and challenges listeners to spot the fake authoritarian headline in this nightmare blunt rotation of global leaders. Amanda balances things out with a cozy fall-themed Two Truths and a Lie about pumpkins, pie, and pumpkin-spice trivia. From the world's largest pumpkin pie record to the debate over whether pumpkins are fruit or vegetable, Amanda brings seasonal chaos and a sprinkle of millennial meltdown. Then, for Storytime, Trevin blends dark comedy and social commentary in a story inspired by the upcoming Zach Cregger movie, Weapons. Based on the arrest of Charles Burgess, this satire dives into viral trends, toxic masculinity, and the absurdity of modern internet culture. What happens when an Ohio auto shop owner gets tangled in a Bitcoin knockoff modeled after a green dildo? Add in a 12-year-old girl, the WNBA, and a case of online hysteria—and you've got one unhinged headline that could only happen in 2025. Amanda closes things out by revisiting one of CrimeCon's favorite petty crimes: public urination. She shares a college party story that starts with beer and bad decisions and ends with a truly embarrassing bathroom emergency—because sometimes petty crime hits way too close to home. This week's theme ties it all together: bros everywhere. From frat parties to dictatorships, this episode proves that toxic masculinity and petty behavior go hand in hand—and we're here to laugh about it.
