349: Rodney Alcala- The Dating Game Killer [What Netflix's Woman of the Hour Left Out]

In September of 1978, Rodney Alcala won the date with Cheryl Bradshaw on the popular show, The Dating Game. It was said that his charm and use of innuendo ultimately got him the win. It was also said that this alleged charm was what enabled him to rape and murder at least eight women. It is believed, though, that he may have killed over 100 women in the 1970’s.

We could tell you about our show, but in the words of LeVar Burton, "don't take our word for it!" Here is an actual listener's description of the show: "Think Cher Horowitz meets Dolly Parton... create a love child. Then THAT person meets Bill Kurtis.... and two random girls are the product of that.... that's Tyrella and Tori (sisters and hosts). Smart, weird, pretty, blonde, hilarious, southern, and just really okay with being themselves.... even when it is weird. It made me realize [they] became their role models without even meaning to."
