Killer Heart To Hearts
Hosted by real-life couple William Cannon and Elise Buedel, Killer Heart to Hearts isn’t just another true crime podcast. It’s immersive, sharply written, and emotionally honest. With a tone that’s darkly witty, culturally aware, and often chilling, each episode dissects stories of murder, disappearance, and betrayal — always with a human heartbeat beneath the horror.
Whether it’s the psychology of an incel, the mystery of a locked hotel room, or a murder staged to look like a suicide, we dive into the shadows — and bring our listeners with us.
