    COJ #89: The Biggest Mystery in the Stephen Smith Investigation, Dick’s Last Hurrah with Alex Murdaugh + the Blood on Tennesse’s Hands in the Lauren Johansen Case
    Jul 16 2024
    Last week marked the ninth anniversary of Stephen Smith’s death. Cup of Justice co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland — talk about Mandy and Liz’s latest reporting in the case and the biggest mystery that exists in the original investigation. Also on the show, Mandy is dismissed from the frivolous defamation case filed against her by a former University of South Carolina professor, who was accused in multiple sexual harassment cases. Plus, why Alex Murdaugh’s latest filing to the South Carolina Supreme Court is likely to go nowhere. And we talk about the Lauren Johansen case out of Tennessee and how utterly preventable her murder was. Premium Members get an extended discussion about the disturbing thing that happened to Eric on his birthday and whether it’s worth fighting back against people determined to make you miserable.

    Listen Now: American Scandal: Teapot Dome
    Jul 9 2024
    Every scandal begins with a lie. But the truth will come out. And then comes the fallout and the outrage. Scandals have shaped America since its founding. From business and politics to sports and society, we look on aghast as corruption, deceit and ambition bring down heroes and celebrities, politicians and moguls. And when the dust finally settles, we’re left to wonder: how did this happen? Where did they trip up, and who is to blame? From the creators of American History Tellers, Business Wars and Tides of History comes American Scandal, where we take you deep into the heart of America’s dark side to look at what drives someone to break the rules and what happens when they’re caught.

    COJ #88 - Is Dick Harpootlian Being Humble (For Once)? + The Effort to Make No-Fault Divorces Illegal
    Jul 2 2024
    Cup of Justice co-hosts Mandy Matney, Liz Farrell and Eric Bland — listened to Dick Harpootlian’s (ridiculously long) farewell speech in the South Carolina Senate and needless to say, they have some thoughts on it. Especially when it comes to Dick’s tone-deaf defense of his own behavior defending Alex Murdaugh. Also on the show, several lawmakers around the country are seriously considering introducing legislation to end no-fault divorces. Mandy, Liz and Eric discuss the possible impacts that could come from that, along with how women like Mica Francis deserve BETTER divorce laws, not worse ones. Our hosts also emphasized the importance of objectivity, fairness, and respect in their respective fields, as well as the need to protect women's rights and autonomy. Premium Members get an extended discussion on Dick Harpootlian’s final words in the Senate, plus a conversation about a recent opinion piece that ran in Newsweek, calling Taylor Swift a bad role model for women and girls.

Defending the oppressed

I got hooked during the Merdough trial. Not sure if you guys have changed audio equipment but for some reason Mandy’s voice is very slurred sounding. I absolutely love the show I listen every night in bed.
