She wasn’t her granddaughter.

But according to detectives, the note told a seventy-five-year-old woman to tell her bank that she was.

Investigators say American Airlines flight attendant Destiny Blake flew to Florida using her employee travel benefits, spent about fifteen minutes inside the woman’s home, and left with access to her credit card.

The woman couldn’t remember the visit.
Her sister found the note.

On the latest GBRLIFE of Crimes, we follow the alleged sweepstakes scheme, the eighty-eight credit card charges, and the psychology explored throughout the case.

💬 How do you protect someone from a scam they may not remember happening?
Destiny Blake has been charged and has not been convicted.

He was eating ice cream in his own apartment. The person who entered with a gun was a Dallas police officer who lived one floor below him.

Amber Guyger said she thought she was home.

But the wrong floor was only the beginning of the questions.

The red doormat. The phone conversations. The texts she sent after shooting Botham Jean. Then came a murder conviction, a ten-year sentence, and a courtroom hug that became an international headline.

In this episode of GBRLIFE of Crimes, part of GBRLIFE Transmissions, we’re exploring the case, the psychology behind Guyger’s decisions, and the life of the man who should have been safe at home.

When you remember this case, what comes to mind first: Botham, the verdict, or the forgiveness?

Ever write something down so you won’t forget it… then forget where you wrote it? 😅
Saner.AI wants to turn that scattered information into organized notes, tasks, and a plan for your day. It markets itself as ADHD-friendly, and I can see the appeal of keeping things simple.

But would it actually save me time? Or would I just have another app to manage?
I tested it and gave it a 3 out of 5. Watch the review on GBRLIFE and YouTube to see what worked, what gave me pause, and who I think might find it useful.

Would you let an AI assistant organize your notes, email, and calendar?

Everything in one workspace sounds great… until organizing the workspace becomes its own project. 😂
I tested Storyflow’s visual boards, documents, templates, and AI features to see whether they help you create or keep you planning.
There’s plenty I liked, but a few things frustrated me too. My latest GBRLIFE Reviews episode is available on GBRLIFE and YouTube!
Are visual boards helpful for your brain, or do they turn into clutter?

She spent years reporting other people’s stories. Then she became the story.

Former morning news anchor Angie Mock is now serving a life sentence for killing her mother, Anita Avers. But before that Halloween morning, there were years of warning signs, serious mental illness, and a family trying to get help.

Anita was a marriage and family therapist who spent approximately twenty years helping others through crisis. At home, she was trying to help her own daughter.

The latest episode of GBRLIFE of Crimes, part of GBRLIFE Transmissions, explores the woman behind the anchor desk, the psychology behind the crime, and the mother whose life deserves to be remembered.

Recording my podcast is only part of the job. Then come the transcript, show notes, companion blog post, social captions, and promotion. 😅

Castmagic says it can turn one recording into all of those things. In this week’s GBRLIFE Review, I’m looking at what it does well, what still needs editing, and whether it’s worth paying for.

The full Castmagic review is now available on GBRLIFE and YouTube! I’m giving it a 4 out of 5.

If you could hand off ONE task after recording, which one would it be?

Adan Manzano traveled to New Orleans to cover the Super Bowl. He was 27, a rising sports reporter, and a widowed father to a baby girl.

He never came home.

Hotel cameras showed Danette Colbert entering his room and leaving alone. Investigators later found Adan’s phone, card, and hotel room key in her home.

At trial, prosecutors presented evidence of a broader operation targeting men. The jury convicted Colbert of racketeering and negligent homicide, rather than murder or manslaughter.

In season 3, episode 35 of GBRLIFE Of Crimes, I look at Colbert’s history, what happened to Adan, the evidence presented at trial, and the verdict his family had to carry home.


Do you think the jury got the verdict right?

Christa Pike was 18 years old when she tortured and killed 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer.
She carried a piece of Colleen’s skull back to the Job Corps Center, showed it to other students, and openly spoke about what she had done.
She later became the youngest woman sentenced to death in the United States during the modern death penalty era.
But Christa was also born with fetal alcohol-related brain damage. She endured severe abuse beginning in early childhood and lived with untreated bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder.
None of that makes her innocent.
It also does not erase what happened to Colleen.
After 30 years on Tennessee’s death row, Christa is scheduled to be executed on September 30, 2026.
In the newest episode of GBRLIFE Of Crimes, we examine two truths that refuse to reconcile: the deliberate cruelty inflicted on Colleen and the profoundly damaged child Christa was before she ever became her killer.
Do you believe Christa’s sentence should be commuted to life in prison, or should Tennessee carry out her execution?

Meta Muse does not just want to answer your questions. It wants to manage your schedule, read your email, shop for you, make payments, and store secure credentials.

That sounds convenient, but it also means giving Meta access to even more of your digital life.

During my test, Muse generated incorrect dates, gave itself a rating I never approved, put a random man in the role of the GBRLIFE reviewer, and combined details from two unrelated true-crime cases.

In this week's GBRLIFE Review, I am testing what Meta Muse can actually do and explaining why I gave it a 2 out of 5.

The full Meta Muse review is now available on GBRLIFE and YouTube!

Would you trust Meta Muse with your email, calendar, shopping accounts, payment information, and passwords?
