  1. Suggestion: Nazi criminals, if you haven’t done it yet, e.g.

    Joseph Mengele

    Himmler

    Hitler

    Heydrich

    Rudolf Hoess

    Amon Goeth etc.

    maybe also Stalin etc.

    1. Woohoo! *wild cheering* I’ve been checking up for ages because I miss this show so much. Yay Grace and all the Murder With Friends crew, and guests too naturally ~.^

  2. MWF won/is up for an award too, so super excited! This is a great show that I found out about when it had ended but I watched all the episodes and I love it. Murdererch would be great, I would love to buy a t-shirt!

    I would love an episode about Marvin Gaye and his Dad is a

  3. Attention all fans of “Murder With Friends” I just saw Grace Baldridge post on this video, that Season 2 is happening … look for “Grace Baldridge” response to “Miranda Rader” … I’m excited. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07M3O6EofTo … last I saw no date … but it is happening peoples.

    They need to figure out some murderous merch — aka murderch.

  4. No fair, I saw an ad for MWF and “Chenks” even plugged it on the show a few weeks back.

    I want my Murder With Friends.
    I’ll buy merch!

    ??‍♂️??‍♀️?

  5. no way! i just rejoined after canceling and one of the main reasons was MWF. please explain the decision for this inexplicable hiatus. it is hard to fathom why this show, one of the best on TYT, could possibly be pulled from the lineup. there must be a logical reason — please explain! the power of christ commands you!!!

  6. @amsterdam78 what do u mean? Hitting us with sticks? Why come back and go again?

    They just got investment. More they can do.. ??? Hope you dont see this as an attack it aint. I just dont understand im a dutch member you too???

    Much love.

  7. But I just found you guys! I’ve been watching the Young turks for about a year now, but I just found this show this month with the free membership, and it’s great! But you will back and I can go watch all the old ones, so it’s all good.

  8. This is what TYT does. They don’t do the insanity Wes Clark Jr is frothing over; but they hit us with sticks, and then we do. But even as an original first 1000 members; I cancelled, came back for free month; clearly cancelling again, in light of too much hitting funding members with sticks.

  9. With TYT using Aggressive Progressives as a stick to keep membership up, now MWF is going away for now. I appreciate the free month, but I’ll have to cancel; yet again. Maybe MWF will have it’s own patreon like Jimmy. I’ll pay $5 month for MWF.??

  10. I’ve just discovered this show and I love it!! Why are you gone and when are you coming back?? I’m almost through all of the shows!! There were some shows I thought I didn’t want to watch because I’ve watched so much about them or they were just so painful but even Columbine, you brought some fresh ideas and respectful presentation. Can’t wait for you to come back!

  11. I would love to see your discussion on the murders of Liberty German and Abby Williams in Delphi Indiana.

  12. I’d like to hear your takes on the Dunblane school massacre in the UK, is the UK’s worst mass shooting and is what led to the strict firearms ban in the UK including the absolute ban on hand guns. And it happened the opposite way than the US responds, so instead of buy more guns it’s carry out there, a narrative which basic says only cowards need guns emerged and won out. So would make an interesting video for when you’re back.

  13. I periodically come to the MWF link to see if theres a new episode.. Any updates as to when you’ll be back?

  14. Well this hiatus makes me a sad panda. Even though I’ve been watching TYT (the free parts) for awhile now, I just became a member recently so I had to wait to watch this show. Totally worth it. I just binge watched all the episodes over the last week or so. Love the show. It’s very well done and Grace is a great host. I hope you come back soon!

    I have two things to recommend to you guys:

    If you haven’t already read it, I would high recommend The Psychopath Test by Jon Ronson (https://www.amazon.com/Psychopath-Test-Journey-Through-Industry/dp/1594485755/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1498376581&sr=8-1&keywords=the+psychopath+test). The amazon page will describe better than I would, so here:

    The Psychopath Test is a fascinating journey through the minds of madness. Jon Ronson’s exploration of a potential hoax being played on the world’s top neurologists takes him, unexpectedly, into the heart of the madness industry. An influential psychologist who is convinced that many important CEOs and politicians are, in fact, psychopaths teaches Ronson how to spot these high-flying individuals by looking out for little telltale verbal and nonverbal clues. And so Ronson, armed with his new psychopath-spotting abilities, enters the corridors of power. He spends time with a death-squad leader institutionalized for mortgage fraud in Coxsackie, New York; a legendary CEO whose psychopathy has been speculated about in the press; and a patient in an asylum for the criminally insane who insists he’s sane and certainly not a psychopath.

    Ronson not only solves the mystery of the hoax but also discovers, disturbingly, that sometimes the personalities at the helm of the madness industry are, with their drives and obsessions, as mad in their own way as those they study. And that relatively ordinary people are, more and more, defined by their maddest edges.

    It is a really interesting read.

    Also I wanted to recommend that you cover the murders enacted by Marcus Wesson in the Central Valley. Here is a story that has the basics about it: http://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/marcus-wesson-mass-murder-surviving-family-speaks-abuse/story?id=11089648.

    It is an all in the family kind of thing – literal family members and it comes complete with incest and a cult factor. I remember when it happened. It shook the Central Valley and the Bay Area (CA). The strongest memory that I have of it wen it was reported was that the scene of the crime was so horrible and upsetting that all the officers on site had to have mandatory counseling after.

    People be crazy.

  15. Captains log: 6 weeks since the last video, i’ve watched all of them 4 times and am slowly going crazy. Please Grace and Amir, for the love of humanity, bring back the MWF!!

    1. I second this. I’m listening to everything again via podcast and I’m dying for the promised episodes: HH Holmes, Vlad Tepes, etc. :( Grace & Amir: please come back!

  16. ?Baldridge come-back ?Any kinda fool could see?You’re gone too long?and I just can’t live without ya

    1. I’m thinking I need to sadly delete my Murder With Friends bookmark.

      I was even going to recommend this to my ex-wife and her sister!

      What is the status, Baldridge?

  17. Im so sad :( first all stars now MFW, come on we need a break from the insanity of the current political environment and this was perfect. please come back ASAP. :(

  18. This might be fun to cover: (Posted on Facebook by RePeace)

    100Years Ago Today May 15, 1917
    Reverend Lyn George Jacklin Kelly is arrested in Red Oak, Iowa and charged with the May 9, 1912 axe murder of 8 people in their beds while asleep in Villisca, Iowa, Joe and Sarah Moore, their 4 children-Herman (11), Katherine (10), Boyd (7) and Paul (5) and Katherine’s two friends Lena and Ina Stillinger. A small man at 5′ 2″ tall and about 115 lbs, the English immigrant was the perfect suspect, having known the victims and left town on a train the very morning the murders were discovered. He was also a sexual deviant who was caught peering in windows had advertised for a secretary, part of whose duties would include “posing”. The one woman who answered the ad got back a letter so pornographic that the judge refused to allow its reading in court but part of it said she would be required to type in the nude. For this he had been convicted of sending obscene material through the mail and spent several months in the Government Hospital for the Criminally Insane (now St Elizabeth’s) in Washington DC. Kelly was also left-handed, as was the killer, and had dropped off blood spattered clothes at a laundromat in a nearby town. To top it all off, an elderly couple recalled a conversation on the train in which Kelly had told them about some gruesome murders in Villisca but the train had left that town 3 hours before anyone discovered the bodies. After a few rounds of interrogation, Kelly will sign a confession but later recant it. Some of the original witnesses also changed their stories such that two grand juries would not indict Kelly. The murders are thought perhaps to be part of a string of 10 other cases of axe murders that occurred near railways in the midwest between 1911-1915. None of the cases was ever solved.

  19. NO WAY!!!! C’MON!!! I just binge-watched all the episodes in like 2 weeks an now you’re done. This is my new favorite show on TYT. Who do I troll to get Murder With Friends back?!?!

  20. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO WATCH IN BETWEEN CALL CENTER CALLS! its the only thing that makes me not want to kill the callers….

  21. thirty seconds into the video im already commenting NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  22. I love Grace and her amazing friends! This is one of my favourite shows not only on the network, but IN EXISTENCE. Come back soon please :(

  23. I’m really bummed too, but if it’s true that you guys are planning something else then I’m excited about that. If that turns out to be a lie then… then fucking roar.

  24. What part two’s and three’s?!?! Such a bummer! Hope you come back, I really enjoyed this show.

    1. They release these on the YouTube channel PopTrigger (I believe) where it’s divided into three parts. You know how you watch the videos (excluding campfire and special editions) where they are broken into three parts separated by the title screen? On TYT, it just looks like a stylistic choice. On YouTube, the title screen is the divider marking where a video ends and a new one starts because they’re three separate videos. A video on TYT called “DEATH! SO MUCH OF IT!” would be on YouTube as “DEATH! SO MUCH OF IT! (Part 1)”, “DEATH! SO MUCH OF IT! (Part 2)”, and “DEATH! SO MUCH OF IT! (Part 3)”.

  25. I have watched every part of every episode you’ve done and enjoyed it all. This is perhaps my favorite show on TYT. I am so disappointed that you’ll be gone. I hope you really do come back. In the meantime, best of luck with whatever endeavors you embark upon. Thanks for all the scary memories!

  26. Friends~

    You can see how much Grace & Crew are appreciated from thru
    tho s” ’round the block of comments.”

    Until the show returns, I’m watching archived shows from the first one onward.
    They’re all worth seeing again anyway~!

    Hope the reason for the hiatus is working out well.

    ~Upaya~

  27. gosh, this is one of the best shows!! i’m so bummed!!
    i *guess* i will try and trust you when you say ”it will be back–bigger and better”.
    please don’t leave us! i hope this wasn’t Cenk’s decision…

  28. NOOOOOOOOOO! I love TYT but I actually became a member for this!!!! Don’t tell Genk. I’ve only ben a member a month of two, I’ve gone searching for more info on the cases and found a ton of others that would be awesome to look at (my family officially think I’m a freak), and I’m really gonna miss you guys. Please, please come back to us as soon as possible because the whole thing is fantastic. I want to thank you for so many episodes (just in case), but I’m going to pick 2. Ed Gein, who I can’t not feel bad for, what a bitch of a mother! And Abraham Lincoln, being British we don’t get told much, so it was amazing to find out so much more was involved than we’re led to believe. Thanks to Grace’s brother there, and to all the people who’ve taken the role of ‘friend’. Seriously though you have to come back. Xxx

  29. Noooo! I’ve already watched all the videos. Hope you come back soon. Grace, I hope to at least see you on the main show more, you are one of the best at TYT!!!

  30. What?? But I haven’t even really begun watching it yet. It sounded SOO interesting! …At least I can start watching it once I have time.

  31. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is one of my favorite shows on TYT!!!!! I look forward to this every week, because you guys are the good kind of obsessed with murder, not the creepy kind of obsessed. I seriously want to do my own Murder With Friends knock-off right now about Ted Bundy, because I’ve always been weirdly obsessed with that case and know way too much about it. (BTW I would fly out to L.A. to film that episode with you if you didn’t have a friend who could do it.) Anyway, your show is awesome. We need you!

  32. I’m so sorry to hear this. I look forward to your shows every single week. It’s not just about a dark fascination with history, but also because it’s just plain good history. You tell the story in a very different way than I remember it being covered. I remember when Columbine happened and all of the misinformation spread by the media – especially the grotesque “Columbine angel” story that was going around. The way you covered it helped elucidate what actually happened. I also loved the coverage of the mass shooting in Australia. Both of these stories are so important to understand because they have immense political ramifications. Not only that, there are so many murders that you have covered that I never even knew existed. I absolutely love the show and it’s a different representation of what I think TYT does – you tell the truth about this “dark side of history.”

    I hope you both come back soon. I’ll still be a member no matter what – Grace, at the very least I hope this means I’ll see you more on the main show. I always appreciate your commentary and you’re one of my favorite hosts <3

    1. Actually I consider you more fortunate for that – you have so many back episodes you can watch! I think I’ve watched nearly every one!

      1. I totally agree, jenhowell77! I got hooked on these two-ish months ago and binged them in order then. I was just thinking that I wish I had just found them to keep me occupied for at least part of their absence!

  33. Well, I think this is my first comment. Since everyone always says we don’t read the comments because they’re hateful. Loved every single episode. My only real critique is I wish they were longer so you could do more detail. I wish you could have told us why you were leaving and a more precise time when you’re coming back. I do understand that you’re not allowed to explain those things at this time. Still, love the show and Grace is amazing.

  34. There was a comment about the Columbine segment that was rather pertinent, that Grace was uncomfortable since she might have realized that doing a MWF segments might be helping the muderers get their 15 minutes. I am glad that she learned to not book an idiot twice in a row, like the guy who was talking about the ROCKSTAR serial killer. I have no interest in researching who it was, I don’t want to see any more from that douche bag. But Grace seems legit but she seems to have been affected by Columbine. I was also affected, and I was also affected by a triple murder in Switzerland with one of my close friends as a victim. It was lots of fun having an old PTSD resurface. I have an interesting topic if you want to do an episode. Why not do one on 9-11. You Americans aren’t allowed to talk about that, but you have everything to work with. Wasn’t this a Yankee Kristalnacht? You can investigate why the third tower also came down in a controlled demolition, You can look into the mysterious illnesses of the workers who went into the rubble and encountered high temperatures for up to 3 months. Was this due to jet fuel`mixed with box cutters? Or was this maybe since they used a shitload of Thermite to make sure the three buildings came down as planned. Shock doctrine, anyone? I am not an Alex Jones fan, though I think he is rather cute when he has his shirt off. Not too offend Grace, you too. Just joking. I haven’t seen Grace with her shirt off.
    Another segment could be on the other 9-11, this one in 1973 in Chile. Coca-Cola and AT&T asked the CIA to do a coup and kill Salvadore Allende and then commit serial killings on about 30.000 of their closest friends. And Milton Friedman won a Nobel Economics prize for the economic models he implemented over the dead bodies of those leftist Chilean people.
    The greatest serial killers have probably occupied the White House, and you probably don’t want to go into the offices of the CIA since it would creep you out. But hey, USAUSA.
    Take time to get well Grace. No pressure from this fan. By the way, what is In Sink? Plumbers?

    1. *NSYNC was a boy band that was super popular in America until they went on (permanent) hiatus, though Justin Timberlake (who was a member) has continued with his solo career.

  35. Nooooooo! You got me hooked on murder stories and now you are going on break? Please, please do come back.

  36. Forfucksake… it’s a 1 hour show PER WEEK.
    I don’t get why it’s so hard to put together on a consistent basis.

    And no reason given for the “hiatus”?

    Annoyed.

    1. thedeans,

      “it’s a 1 hour show PER WEEK. I don’t get why it’s so hard to put together on a consistent basis.”

      FYI, you sound like an ignorant fool. It sounds like you think all they do is sit their asses down once per week and rattle off a bunch of pre-scripted stuff that someone else plopped in front of them.

      No. They work at it. To give you the benefit of the doubt (even though you gave them none), maybe you don’t have experience in “research”… But it’s typically a long, tiring process to try to thoroughly (and ACCURATELY) research complex topics… often even for topics with which one is already familiar. That applies to almost any deep topic.

      They’re presenting fairly deep topics every episode, and giving most topics a full 45-60 minutes. For them to be as accurate as possible, they MUST do a rather enormous amount of research. There’s plenty of misinformation and garbage out there that has to be sifted through to find the kernels of worthwhile information. And even once they’ve watched or read dozens of videos, articles, user forums full of theories, and perhaps even pieces of books on a topic — which may not sound like much, but can take hours or days, depending on depth of knowledge needed (even weeks/months, if a person can spare that much time to REALLY dig in) — they still have much more to do… they must ORGANIZE it all into a coherent, entertaining flow for the presentation; then piece together video, images, and text, to insert into the recording… etc.

      I don’t assume they have a very large staff to help with all these aspects; and “research” can be hard to delegate anyway, because the hosts themselves need to read/watch and absorb all the information in order to present it intelligently, knowledgeably, and clearly. So one of the most time-consuming parts is also one of the most important for the hosts to delve deep into themselves.

      So, please, spare the rest of us your condescending, ignorant, needlessly rude comment that makes it incredibly obvious that you don’t know how much work putting on a show like this can really be (especially if support staff is limited, as it very likely is with this show). I don’t work in the industry; but I know how exhausting it can be to do research, especially when *quality* resources are hard to find or are buried and scattered among enormous amounts of maybe-good-or-maybe-questionable things. And I also know that putting on professional video productions isn’t as simple as “record a vid with a phone and slap it online,” the way a lot of video content is tending to be nowadays. It takes a lot of pre-production (setting up the set, preparing content, etc) and post-production (breaking down sets, editing, etc), as well as possibly doing retakes if it’s a pre-recorded show (I don’t get the impression they do retakes, but it’s just another thing that can add time and effort).

      And all of that, which could take a week in itself just for research, besides the rest of the time for the other things, doesn’t even take into account that they surely have other responsibilities and time-constraints at TYT that undoubtedly eat up a lot of their time. So this “just an hour” probably turns into 20/30+ hours of work, depending on the week’s topic, AND that has to be fit in around other things. So what ends up maybe “seeming” like an hour is anything but, behind the scenes.

      On top of everything else, since we don’t know why they’re doing a hiatus, it’s possible that their other duties have become too significant (maybe from a temporary project, for example) to fit in the time this show needs (and us viewers deserve), for each episode to be great. Or it’s possible that one of them has personal reasons for needing to cut back on work hours for a while, and this show — despite its popularity — was one of the few ways they could do that, without putting too much burden on others who would have had to take up extra slack. Or it’s even possible that they shut down new episodes temporarily because they’re working on new equipment, format changes, or other things, preparing to make the show even more impressive now that they’ve tested out its popularity and seen it working well (as I recall, Amir hinted at a bigger, better show to come, so this is as good a guess as any). Whatever their reasons, it’s likely those reasons all boil down to “too little time” for now. You don’t know. We don’t know. But being an ignorant jerk doesn’t help.

      1. Oh, and to this line:

        “So, please, spare the rest of us your condescending, ignorant, needlessly rude comment”

        I forgot to add: especially, spare the hosts and staff that sort of unnecessary condescending ignorance. I don’t know all the MWF peeps do for the show (or in the rest of their jobs/duties), but I’ve no doubt they worked hard on this show when they were doing it… and will work hard again when they bring it back.

      2. Jesus dude… SHUT THE FUCK UP… I lost interest in your weak, meandering excuses about halfway through that BORING fucking tirade. There are lots of shows that do DAILY episodes, that also require RESEARCH. Doing research for a one hour program of mostly casual conversation wrapped around an organized rundown of the facts, shouldn’t takes more than a day’s research AT MOST. There is only so much details that can be covered in a single hour – once the known/published facts have been summarized. Therefore, production of the show is probably not the reason for said “hiatus”.

        The problem here is the lack of an honest reason for this “hiatus” – in fact, ANY REASON. If TYT would simply give a reasonable reason for randomly suspending a popular show, there would be much less annoyance with the situation.

        For now, this annoys me. And you annoy me.

        1. “Jesus dude… SHUT THE FUCK UP… I lost interest in your weak, meandering excuses about halfway through that BORING fucking tirade. ”

          Holy shit dude! Rage much? If you lose it this bad over a TV show, I’d hate to see how hard you’d bust a nut in a real life situation. =/

          1. Raaaaar… I’m RAGING DUDE!!!!!!!!

            I see you were also unable to get through Progressive’s epically- winded, mostly pointless, rant? Because if you actually did, you would understand my annoyance. Have a pleasant day, Ackfft :)

            1. I’m not 100% sure wtf you meant by that, but at least they (Aggressive Progressives) rant about things that are directly affecting many lives, whereas you were losing your shit about someone’s long winded post that affected no one.

              1. Hmmm… Ackpfft… I’m not sure to how to help you there, my dear. If you actually read the entire exchange between myself and the self-righteous gasbag, aka Progressive, you would see that I’m not the instigator here. But I’m also not a liberal of the weak-kneed variety. If you come after me, you can be goddamn sure you’re gonna get return fire. In case you’re still confused, I present you with the first volley:

                “FYI, you sound like an ignorant fool” – the first line in Progressive’s epically flatulent, weirdly personal response to my initial post – which was expressing general annoyance with the TYT network’s lack of candor with their paying audience.

                So…. if you still think that I am the one that is “losing my shit” for no reason, well I’ll have to agree to disagree. Fair enough?

  37. No! I JUST discovered you and am completely obsessed. I am a TYT member, but I need my weekly fix.
    Don’t take too long!

    1. Sorry for whining twice… I don’t know how that happened, my computer is obviously also reacting to the news!

  38. Grace~

    Thanks for all your great work~!

    I trust you’ll be back soon…rested and ready.

    Now I’m going to go back and watch one show from the
    archive, starting w/ the first, every week.

    ~Upaya~

  39. I only watch 2nd segments.
    Yeah, that’s a lie. The truth is I’ve watched every single episode and couldn’t wait for the next one.

    Sigh

  40. Murder With Friends is what finally convinced me to become a member so I hope it comes back soon. I love how you guys approach these stories and can’t wait for more.

  41. I really hope Grace and Amir read these comments because this is awesome. I work 2 jobs and go to school full time and this show was such an awesome escape, your storytelling is awesome guys! Hope you come back soon!!

    Bernie

  42. I KNEW something was up: when we received NO new episode(s) last week, WITHOUT any prior warning (that I saw) about taking a week off, I had a bad feeling MWF had been cancelled.

    I’m very disappointed.

    You did a wonderful job of sprinkling in humor to lighten the heavy, dark topics; of giving us well-organized information; of showing a caring, thoughtful, open-minded effort to often be empathetic to even the perpetrators (which is crucial, because circumstances are not always as they seem on the surface [which you sometimes discussed at length], especially as portrayed by mass media/other outlets), which was probably the stand-out reason I most enjoyed your show; of maturing into a well-done, professional-quality program; and, I assume, of presenting well-researched, accurate, truthful facts (I didn’t research the topics in depth independently, but I have faith that you did;-)…. etc etc.

    In short, you’re wonderful, and your show was interesting and enjoyable… I hope you do come back, as you insist you will. If it’s destined, as you said, to be bigger and better than ever when it returns, I REALLY look forward to seeing the awesome you bring! – You have my curiosity piqued!

    P.S. In addition to what I wrote above, I second what Karrenola said about all the reasons MWF is a higher caliber than many mainstream shows I’ve seen! Well said, Karrenola.

    P.P.S. I skimmed through all the comments here on this member page, and I didn’t notice even ONE negative comment about MWF, or gloating/”happy” comment about MWF’s hiatus……… how many shows on TYT have THAT sort of unanimous love, even here in the member-only forum??? – I don’t read everything, but I’ll often skim (for the shows I follow) each video’s member comments section a little, and I rarely see a day go by that other shows don’t get SOME negative responses, but the reverse for MWF: I don’t recall ever noticing any of the same kind of hate in these member comments, for MWF…….. seems to me to be a good indication of how much members love you/the show. Hope you really do come back! (And you’ve got me REALLY curious about the “good” thing that’s causing the hiatus, of which you can’t speak yet, so I look forward to getting that update, too!)

  43. This is crazy! WTF! I loved Murder With Friends! I watch ALL of your EPs! My week is totally shot to hell! I got tell you guys it’s off flipping Downer to see this posting! #lovedmurderwithfriends

    Well Grace, you did a fabulous job ! I watched every episode and most likely will say that i will watch more then once when I show my friends!

  44. … [send the last comment by mistake by smartphone & fat finger] Since it’s a valued part of the membership & since Old School kicks so much damn ass, it seems like a really good idea if it can be worked out.

  45. I’m sure Cenk is too busy but it’s worth a shot: how about Old School twice a week to fill the gap? Since its

  46. i just joined i binged watched all the episodes and they go on a hiatus honestly I feel so attacked right now

  47. Totally sucks. I look for this every week. By far the best show on TYT. You will be missed. Sidebar*** BOOOOOO

  48. Aww, I binge watch all the episodes last week and now there’s no more?!

    Excited for when you do come back, though!

  49. No pressure, if you need a hiatus I know there’s got to be a good reason for it… but, just so you know, we ‘Murderites’ will miss you a lot. Come back when the time is right, pleaseth… we will all be waiting with baited breath and knives hidden behind our backs. Thank you for all the in-depth and fascinating presentations you’ve done for us until now. AND thank you for promising the occasional episode for members. :D. I’ll look forward to that.

    Grace, Amir, I had no idea you guys had ever been mortal enemies :P it’s amazing what you can create if only you set aside personal differences and focus on doing your best work regardless. Can someone poke congress into doing that? Please???

  50. Very sad to see you stop the show for a while Grace and Amir, but your own lives and main work is way more important so take your time.

    I don’t like cheesy murder mysteries or TV shows like Murder She Wrote or Columbo, and I’m also not a fan of the classic ones like Agatha Christie. I don’t like old school or modern mysteries. So why do I LOVE your show so much? Because it’s focused on THE TIMES including the racism, social discrimination and prejudices surrounding the events. The murders you have presented so far were in the past covered up with misinformation by media executives and an American government focused on controlling information at a time with no internet or limited internet. There is still yet to be declassified information on lots of these cases.

    It is VERY important to get the facts out on the cases you have presented. When there are few facts and lots of manufactured tales around a murder or attack you get roaches like Donald Trump taking over. You also get murderers / attackers who use the misinformation to mislead and get away with their crimes.

    I was very moved, Grace, when on the Post Game the other day you expressed your alarm with a no caring ignoramus in the highest seat in our country and possibly the world. I shared your grief over what we are now having to deal with, and I also think it is way beyond being funny. Any program, whether it be for entertainment or academic research, should be based on facts and fact finding as Murder With Friends is. And we often find that it is not just the intent of the host to find the truth but the human warmth and caring that host embodies; this swings a show past titillation and into a deeper understanding of our history and into useful lessons for our future.

    Thank you Grace. Thank you Amir. I patiently await the return of Murder With Friends. Hopefully some information will finally get declassified on JFK during one of your future runs.

  51. Hope you guys recharge & refresh on your hiatus.

    You’ll be missed.

    I look forward to Murder w Friends because it helps w the depression and stress from maintaining being informed during the Dumbth administration!

  52. Man worst fears realized. Please come back soon this show is incredibly creative, interesting, and a great way to escape this ongoing Trump circus. Waiting with bated breath for your return :(

  53. This is literally my favorite internet show. I cannot tell you how much I will miss you, no matter how short a hiatus you plan to take. PLEASE don’t take a long hiatus. Love you!! Susan

  54. Im a tyt member for murder with friends mostly. Please tell me u keep up the episodes for us???

    We pay to see stuff i dont like other shows i like murder with friends.

    Part 2 doesnt make sence thats for youtube i watch the whole episode here.
    Please grace i check daily for new episodes please keep them coming for members
    I feel you can do more for members.. now it feels like the youtube has everything too.
    Please keep episodes coming. Im sad..

  55. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Not watching all the parts?! What kind of sick twisted person would do something like that.
    Come back soon Grace.

  56. Videos separated into parts never work well. It’s just better to keep it all as one and just sprinkle ads (Youtube) throughout the breaks.

    That said, I had found myself bloated with depressing TYT content and came to MWF and the rest of Pop Trigger videos for relief from it all. So I hope this comes back in good time.

  57. Such a bummer to hear! I always look forward to new uploads. I hope you guys come back soon. I’m really hoping you make a Jack the Ripper show. Also, I just read an article about Ronald Gene Simmons. Very interesting stuff!!
