A highly disturbing and important episode of My Favorite Murder. The crimes described are graphic and may not be suitable for listeners under 13.

Karen and Georgia tell the empowering, unbelievable survival story of Mary Vincent and cover the disappearance/murder of Cheryl Ann Commesso. The duo takes on these somber cases with their characteristic gallows humor and rage against the patriarchy. Karen's rendition of Mary Vincent's case, based on an I Survived episode from Lifetime, had me on the edge of my seat with equal parts terror and amazement. Georgia's research on Cheryl Ann Commesso's case gave me chills. While closer to a downer than many of their other cases, episode 18 is still an important look survivors' will to live and the importance of victim advocacy. I would suggest listening to the episodes in parts and setting up a self-care plan for afterward. ( )
