Devon (Camille Ramsey) and Missy (Tatsumi Romano) are best friends and college roommates who crack cold cases on their successful true-crime podcast.

The series was written by Riverdale writer Tessa Leigh Williams [7] [8] and won the 2019 Writers Guild of America (WGA) award for Best Original Short Form New Media.
