True Crime Reality

We recorded this episode as a public service to anyone who is considering using Vrbo for their next vacation. Sadly, we were loyal customers for several years, renting through Vrbo multiple times a year. However, when we had such a difficult experience at a home over the summer, the homeowner refunded a percentage of our prepaid rental fee, only to have Vrbo, days later take $5,000 from us without asking, and without explanation. After hours on the phone, multiple calls, and multiple emails where all parties agreed we had NOTHING to do with an insurance claim, Vrbo has still refused to return money that wasn’t never meant to be charged to our our credit card. Everyone who is thinking about renting a home, needs to hear our story first.

President Trump’s self appointed Kennedy Center Board made the decision to close the memorial within hours of a judge blocking the latest effort to have Trump’s name etched on the building’s facade. And just wait until you hear the ten proposed inscriptions, all of which were rejected by the judge; each one praising, thanking and acknowledging Trump’s “generosity." But that proposed generosity has strings attached, Trump making clear in his latest social media post that a planned renovation won’t happen until the building is allowed to bear his name.

What an absolute mess. Finneas, Lukas Graham, Irish singer Aaron Rowe and Ed Sheeran’s own house band, Beoga, have all abruptly left the remainder of Sheeran’s US Loop tour after Macklemore was removed from the lineup for his “Free Palestine” remarks. None of the artists left quietly, either, all releasing lengthy statements taking a stand against silencing free speech, with many of them openly supporting Palestine. Ed Sheeran, however, put out the longest statement of them all and as we read it aloud, you’ll hear he actually said the least of everyone.
