On a quiet December day in 2009, Steven Koecher—a 30-year-old devout Mormon with no known enemies—vanished without a trace in the Las Vegas Valley. His abandoned car and a haunting video of his final known steps only deepened the mystery surrounding his disappearance.
In this episode, I take a brief but immersive dive into the setting, painting a picture of the sunny streets and suburban sprawl that became the backdrop to Steven’s unsettling case. Then, we unravel the cryptic timeline leading up to his last known movements, exploring possible motives, connections, and the lingering question: how can someone simply disappear?
No fluff, no rambling—just a focused exploration of this perplexing case. Buckle up and get ready to step into the mystery of Steven Koecher’s final moments.

Today’s episode is a little treat for everyyyone (okay, NOT for those who hate the life rambles)—usually, these rambling morning walk-and-talk episodes are reserved for my Patreon crew, but I figured, why not share the chaos with everyone?
Recorded during yesterday and this morning’s dog walks (because one day of rambling just isn’t enough), I cover everything from my latest TikTok ideas, to the DXSW Cocktail Hour on Saturday, and even some walking etiquette lessons for those oh-so-special people who think the dirt roads are made just for them🙄.
It’s unfiltered, it’s random, it’s a little slice of my life—and as always, thanks for indulging me in this weird and wonderful experiment of a podcast.
Come for the true crime, stick around for the life updates, and—of course—enjoy the chaos🌵🩷

AGAIN, AMAZINGLY this Part Two begins with very little chit-chat and rambling (okay like 5 minutes of rambling but NOT much!)— and then we dive right into Part Two of the chilling and tragic story of Mark Kilroy.
Mark was a bright, young college student heading off to spring break in 1989, ready for sunshine, adventure, and making some unforgettable memories with his childhood friends! What he found instead was a nightmare beyond anything you can imagine.
This story delves into a shocking abduction, an unspeakable crime, and takes a terrifying look at what happens when pure evil crosses your path.
Part Two brings this haunting story to a close and hopefully, in the future, will make you think twice about trusting strangers in paradise.
Come for the true crime, stick around for the life updates, and—of course—enjoy the chaos🌵🩷

It’s bonus episode time, and this week I’m joined by the one and only Mark for a pre-Thanksgiving feast of randomness and ridiculousness. Before we dive into our epic games of Stuffing or Bluffing (yes, that’s a real thing) and Guess the Thanksgiving Dish, we’ve got plenty of juicy side dishes (aka: conversation detours) to serve up.
We’re talking my latest hair disaster, Mark’s deeply relevant recounting of his trip to Scotland a decade ago, and the details of his and Michael’s ranch escapades last night. Plus, some news about meeting up for a DXSW cocktail hour…and plenty of other random topics!
Pull up a chair, grab a drink, and join us for this stuffed-to-the-brim bonus episode! 🎙️🍗

AMAZINGLY this episode begins with NO chit-chat, NO rambling—we dive right in with an old-school DXSW Sense of Place, setting the scene of South Padre Island and Matamoros, Mexico, to transport you right into the heart of this haunting tale!
From there, it’s straight into Part One (yes, it’s a two-parter, but I promise—it’s worth it!) of the chilling and tragic story of Mark Kilroy.

Welcome to a Tuesday Bonus Episode!! Today, I spend the first 18 minutes chatting about this morning's uplifting recording session with Jim—it was just what I needed after the funk I was in last night. Funny how a good conversation can flip your mood, right? I sprinkle in a few other thoughts that have been swirling around my head, so stay tuned for some candid musings.
But then, we're diving into a Thanksgiving story that's as chilling as it is tragic—the story of brothers, best friends, and business partners - Paul and Keith Caneiro. Imagine this: It's Thanksgiving, a day meant for gratitude and family, but for the Caneiro brothers, it became a nightmare that shook their entire community. Secrets, betrayal, and a crime that left everyone asking, "How could this happen?" Trust me, you won't want to miss this deep dive into a case that's as perplexing as it is heartbreaking.
Come for the true crime, stick around for the life updates, and—of course—enjoy the chaos🌵🩷

In this episode, we kick things off with a 15-minute catch-up where I dive into a disgruntled email from a former fan that I couldn’t resist sharing. Afterward, I spill my thoughts on the ongoing Menendez Brothers hoopla, along with a few other random odds and ends.
Then, we turn to the chilling case of Todd Kohlhepp—a man whose double life as a successful real estate agent and cold-blooded killer is almost beyond belief. From the late 1980s to the early 2000s, Kohlhepp left a trail of terror, preying on innocent victims in crimes that shocked communities and left investigators scrambling for answers. We’ll walk through each twisted detail of his crimes, from his early offenses to the haunting final days of his victims, all while exploring what could drive someone to lead such a dark double life.
Come for the true crime, stick around for the life updates, and—of course—enjoy the chaos🌵🩷

Alright, friends. Today’s episode was supposed to be a quick 10-minute “I’m alive, don’t worry” update. But, of course, here we are an hour later, wandering through the twisted maze that is my brain (on a little too much cough syrup😬). Turns out, I accidentally went on a journey of deep pondering (or was it rambling?) about relationships, friendships, and family, while feeling… let’s just say, not my best.
But wait! The real treat? A handful of absolutely delightful voice messages from one of our listeners in Belgium, whose life is WAY more fascinating than mine🐘. So, while there’s no true crime in this episode, there’s plenty of personal chaos, musings, and meandering thoughts, seasoned with some light existential confusion.
Join me for an hour of unplanned exploration—and a much-needed reminder to keep the cough syrup doses a bit lower next time.😂

Welcome to a bonus episode where true crime is left on read, and it's just you, me, and a whole lot of wonderfully irrelevant details. I’m talking weekend adventures, my BFF’s enviable escape to Belize (I'll just be here…trying not to be jealous), our iconic family room sleepover, and, FINALLY, I dive into some listener DMs. Expect everything from the most random musings to overshares that absolutely no one asked for but everyone might just need.
Happy 11.11, friends – where it’s all just good vibes, no murder (today).

Get ready for a jam-packed episode as I’m joined by my best friend of 22 years, Jackie, who’s here to co-host and catch up with me on everything from the hilariously mundane to the strangely profound. For the first 30 minutes, since this is Jackie’s first time on a podcast (yay!) we get all warmed up by chatting about our friendship, sharing some memories, and diving into all the quirky odds and ends that make our friendship so special (to us, haha!).
Then, we switch gears to a murder case that feels ripped straight out of a true-crime soap opera. It’s the shocking story of Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan—a devastating tale with all the juicy twists: a Brazilian au pair, a fetish website, an illicit affair, and, ultimately, a double murder that will leave you wondering if you’re listening to real life or a dark thriller. This episode is full of friendship, laughter, and plenty of true crime twists and turns!
Come for the true crime, stick around for the life updates, and—of course—enjoy the chaos🌵🩷

In this spine-chilling Halloween episode, we’re diving deep into one of the most puzzling cases that haunts Minnesota to this day. Christopher Jenkins was a 21-year-old college student who vanished after leaving a bar in downtown Minneapolis on Halloween night, 2002. Dressed in his Native American costume and fueled by the festive spirit, he stepped out into the cold night...and was never seen alive again.
For four months, his family and friends were left with nothing but questions, until his body surfaced in the icy Mississippi River. But the real nightmare was only just beginning. Was it an accident, a calculated murder, or something even darker? Join me as I unravel the eerie events of that night and explore the chilling theories that still swirl around Christopher Jenkins’ death. Grab your blankets, turn off the lights, and get ready for a true Halloween horror story🎃
Love you all!! Enjoy!!

Hi friends—on today’s episode, I do about a 17-minute catch-up where I share all the good, the bad, and the spooky from my weekend, plus some Halloween updates and random bits I couldn’t resist throwing in. Then, we dive headfirst into a chilling true crime story that’s perfect for the season: the Halloween disappearance of Cindy Song.
Episode Description:
Imagine going out for a night of Halloween fun, costumes and all, only to completely vanish into thin air. That's what happened to Cindy Song, a bright and hopeful Penn State student whose life took a mysterious and terrifying turn on Halloween night in 2001. Dressed in a playful bunny costume, Cindy was last seen returning to her apartment in the early morning hours, but by the time daylight came, she was gone without a trace.
Cindy’s case is especially unsettling with the sheer volume of twists, dead ends, and chilling theories. Despite national attention, FBI involvement, and family support, Cindy's case remains unsolved, with her loved ones left only with questions and heartbreak.
So if you’re ready for a story full of eerie mysteries, alleged psychic insights, and one of the most perplexing Halloween disappearances ever, this episode is for you.
Come along for the life updates, stick around for the spooky, and—of course—enjoy the chaos.

I kick off this episode as per usual with about 10 minutes of blabbering on about life, love, and the pursuit of happiness (not really🤣 - I actually just talk about my morning).
After we catch up, we're diving headfirst into the mysterious origins of Halloween. Ever wondered how an ancient festival celebrating the dead turned into a night of costumes and candy? We'll peel back the layers of history and uncover the fascinating transformation of this spooky holiday.
But hold on, the real treat (or trick) of today's episode is a true crime story that's as chilling as they come. We're exploring the haunting case of Timothy O'Bryan from 1974—a tale that forever changed Halloween night. It's a story filled with unexpected twists that will make you think twice about those sugary sweets.
Come along for the life updates, stick around for the spooky, and—of course—enjoy the chaos. 🎃🌵

In this episode, I kick things off with a rundown of my weekend adventures. From nearly losing my voice at Terror in the Corn 👻🌽(apparently, I'm not as brave as I thought) to an unexpected shopping trip to a sad and unexpectedly tragic end to the weekend😕.
Then we shift gears to the main event: the perplexing murder of Martha Moxley. A 15-year-old girl from an affluent Connecticut neighborhood, Martha's life was cut short under mysterious and chilling circumstances. Was it a case of jealousy, a dark family secret, or something even more sinister? I'll walk you through the eerie details, suspicious characters, and the questions that still linger nearly five decades later.
🧡Love you all!! Enjoy!!

Tonight's episode kicks off with a cosmic touch, thanks to a quick heads-up from our very own Human GPS. I'll be sharing a little snippet about the comet lighting up the sky tonight—just a short detour before we dive into this week's story. Now, I know Michigan isn't exactly the Southwest, but Halloween is closing in, and I couldn't resist bringing you a truly bone-chilling case from the Midwest that fits the spooky season just perfectly.
We’re heading to a Halloween party in 2014 where Chelsea Bruck, a fun-loving 22-year-old, donned a homemade Poison Ivy costume for a night of dancing, drinking, and celebrating with friends. But as the festivities drew to a close, Chelsea disappeared into the night, never to be seen again…
In this episode, I'll walk you through the haunting details of Chelsea’s final moments, the devastating impact on her family and the local community, and the investigation that ultimately uncovered the identity of her killer. This is a story that reminds us: sometimes, the real horror begins when the party ends.
So, grab your cocktail and settle in. It’s time for another night of crime, Halloween haunts, and just a touch of the macabre here on Death X Southwest.
HAPPY OCTOBER🎃

It’s time for another classic Margot ramble-fest! 🎃 First up, I share about the weekend I spent with my BFF and her adorable son. We did all the fall things—pumpkin patches, halloween decor, and let’s just say the child has more stamina than I’ve ever had in my life. Also, I dragged Mark along for some pumpkin picking which HE LOVED.
Then, because I’m me, I dive into my list of spooky movie picks—because what would October be without them? (Hint: Boring.) Naturally, I also blab about the usual life stuff and whatever else popped into my brain at the time. You know how it goes.
Finally, I close things out with a mini-crime story about one of the creepiest, unsolved mysteries ever—the Villisca Axe Murders. If you’re not familiar, prepare to be freaked out by what went down in that little house in Iowa back in 1912. I promise, you’ll be locking your doors tonight.
So grab a coffee (or cocktail🍸) and enjoy my latest mix of true crime and random life nonsense!

In 1991, Austin—a city growing fast but still holding onto its small-town charm—was rocked by a crime so brutal it’s haunted the community for decades. Four teenage girls, a cozy yogurt shop, and a night that ended in unimaginable tragedy. In this final part of the Austin Yogurt Shop Murders series, I’ll dig into what really happened behind those doors and who could be responsible for such an unspeakable act.
But, heads up, I do a lot of blabbing in the intro! I read a few listener emails and share some random thoughts for the first 24 minutes or so, so if you want to skip straight to the case, you’ve been warned. If you’ve been with me for the first three parts of this story, you know it’s one that will leave you questioning everything… so let’s wrap this up.
If you have information about the yogurt shop murders, call 512-472-TIPS.
