    2. True Crime junkies: What have you been watching?

      I’m a true crime fiend, but without cable or Netflix it’s hard to discover new lurid murders and cult exposés to relax with.

      So I’m asking y’all: what’s been on your watchlist in the true crime doc department?

      To kick it off, I’ll start: I just binged 5 hours of “The Curious Case Of Natalia Grace “

      Not since Making a Murderer or The Bad Vegan have I immediately binged an entire True Crime series.

      So, quick synopsis for those unaware: ** “ Investigation Discovery's "The Curious Case of Natalia Grace" is a six-episode docuseries that explores the case of Natalia Grace, a Ukrainian orphan who was adopted by Michael and Kristine Barnett in 2010.2 Initially thought to be a 6-year-old orphan with a rare bone growth disorder, Natalia was actually a fully grown adult.…or was she?”**

      This one’s a total trainwreck in the best possible way: twists, turns, creeps and weirdos and some odd people just trying to do right…surreal but highly recommended.

      So Tildes: where is my next fix? I want to to hear any other True Crime junkies chime in with their recent picks!

      The recent post on why men are ignoring help and falling behind made me think of this documentary. Don't know who here might be interested, but it's certainly a lot to think about.

      There's a documentary exploring the Mens Rights movement. It's far from perfect, but I think it definitely has some good points. Firstly, I'd recommend watching Cassie Jaye's (the creator of the doc) TEDx Talk about open-mindedness and listening (~15 Mins): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WMuzhQXJoY

      Then there's the documentary itself (~2 hours): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7MkSpJk5tM

      Cassie Jaye has posted a lot of the unedited and full interviews to her channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7HeX2SUI9v84DMIawkSBzLRANIc9RQ7t
