In the latest episode, titled Missing: Michelle Eason Part 2, the podcast covered the case of sex worker Michelle Eason who was last seen in Poughkeepsie, New York in 2022. However, in the end of the show, Ashley Flowers made an announcement that Brit Prawat has a health issue and will need to take time off to focus on her recovery.
