BONUS - SMALL TOWN MURDER - THE NEW SHERRI PAPINI DOCUMENTARY... HER STORY

This week, James and Jimmie discuss the new Sherri Papini documentary on Investigation Discovery.

Comments

The split that occurs in childhood caused by severe abuse has not been called Multiple Personality Disorder for quite some time. It's known as Disassociate Identity Disorder and it is in the DSM-5. And if her abused occurred after she was 7 or 8 yrs old, she is totally full of shit and just another Milligan and Bianchi using it to get away with shit

Ashleigh McLean

Stink hammer in the hammocks!! I'm losing it!! 😂

Bobby Hutchison

I’m certain sure she said the people who kidnapped her were women because there was no sign of sexual assault so she said it was women to cover that up

Maya Greene

Okay, but seriously, one legit use for burner phones: Some people get them for river races. There's a good chance your kayak/canoe might flip, or the phone get dunked/smashed/overheated in the sun and fried. I do a 4-day race every year and several phones end up on the river bottom. Most folks don't want to take their new iPhone out there for good reason, but you need a phone to run the mandatory tracking app for safety.

Hannah (Ханна)

i want to get a beer w denise farmer

Phil Baird

James said club I lean more towards cult but 🤷‍♂️

Jesse Giamartino

Omg how did you even get through the whole documentary? I’m like less than five minutes in and can’t tolerate her bullshit.

Ashley Sanchez

Also i counted 2 tears come out of sherris face

Tyler Summers

I watched the doc before listening to this. The mom bit was my favorite because the moment she said she made the older lady look like james' mom i looked at my roommate and said "watch this bitch turn out to be the palest, most european descended lady ever" and then 4 minutes to the end they tell sherri "she's Irish" and i laughed so fucking hard

Tyler Summers

My friend has Botox shot into her gum line every 2 to 3 months and it costs $50. Completely worth it!

Travis WTAF

Sherri "waste of decent tits" Papini 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Libby Gendall

Im surprised they haven’t brought up how Sherri was abusing her kids. I was expecting her to get ripped apart for that crap

Joseph Calvey

She's so strong! Why give her a hard time? Just kidding. She's a complete nut job. The FBI agent in the show is awesome. The sister is super crazy. Question. Would Jimmie rather date Jodi Arias or Sherri?

Joe Weniger

Paused this so I could watch the show and now I can’t wait to listen and see what you guys think. I mean, wow! What a crazy come back to her original statement

Kristin Schmidt

I wasn't familiar with this case, so I wish you had provided a little background before going into the documentary. It made sense over time, though! I have now watched three of the four episodes, and the cringe factor is obvious!

Joel Tscherne

While I’m a fan of true crime, my partner seeks out what he calls “true cringe media”. This documentary was the perfect marriage of those two genres.

Devon Merriman

She's gumgeous lol

KaraJeff

OMG! I could not stop laughing at this episode. She is a dingbat, whack job that still doesn’t have a clue! Karma is a beautiful thing. Sherri, step up and get some. 🙄

Buffy

Best podcast out there, live in Washington and can’t wait to see you guys in October!!!

Terry Kearse

Get an ad free ASAP please!!!!!! And on an app the lets you FFW or RRW instead of SKIPPING THE ENTIRE TRACK!! Please.

Topher Fischer

Thanks Jimmy, I have had childhood trauma and this was a good laugh through it!

Nick Nurenberg

Loved this one. i could not stop laughing when you guys described the lawyers!

Laura Errera

I want to hear an interview with the truck driver he’s the only one I believe

Ben Calloway

Oh haven’t you told a lie before…. lol. Her mom is worse than her.

Ben Calloway

I saw her tits on the TV special on id she's a nut job

Joshua L Roderick

Just watched this last night. WTF.

Stephanie Thompson

I'm a Dr of Clinical Psychology. Yeah, her therapist sounds nuts.

Dionne Joseph

Todays personal item of the week..A Pringle Anal Invader...lol..Jimmie you Legend...😅

Davey Boy.

i'm surprised you guys never mention the smegma thing

Omaha, Nebraska

Ahhhhhh “no commercial” heaven!<3 What a funny and amazing day it is to have these two episodes to settle in with. Sunny. Smokables ready to go. James’s birthday! Yaaaayyyyy

Cher Strong (#localweedia)

I could listen to you guys talk shit on this crazy bitch for 3 days straight 😂

Abby

I think she is a great manipulator. I think she has practiced all this personas!

Stacy DeJonge

B bc c cv v bc C v c c e b b

Mike McDaniel

As a therapist myself I couldn't sit through the psychologists bs

Kristie Hoppe

Update— I’m about to throw heavy things at the tv that has her face bc she is so frustratingggg. (Soooo did you PLACE your phone there ORRR you dropped it? SP: Yes. 🤬). I KNOW I DONT HAVE TO KEEP WATCHING. But I actually do.

Abbey Finney

Omg.. I’m one min in the doc.. 😳😳😳😳😳 the gift that keeps giving: SP 😳😳😳

Abbey Finney

How many people ran to Google her (even if we already know what she looks like) just to look at her tits?

Kayla Gilbert

Decided to start my morning off with crazy so let’s see how this goes.

Sara Palombo

I loved listening to Jimmy slam the ex-husband’s height with such glee🤣

LouLou Rogers

I think the sister-in-law wants to fuck Sherri. That’s the vibe I got from her. Also, Costa Mesa to Redding is an almost 10 hour drive! Sherri has damaged so many lives and doesn’t seem to give a shit. It’s maddening.

Amber Wright

"She's an asshole" Love it!

Rita Argentino

She could be narcissistic, personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, or possibly disassociative personality is what it sounds like to me definitely a personality disorder very screwed up in the brain

Carol King

Sharbear...she's good now

Laura T

I love this. You got a great guy there

Maureen Wilson

Hilarie Keys

The latest in the last week. She is just wrecking shop around here. (I am from Redding).https://www.redding.com/story/news/local/2025/06/06/sherri-papini-tries-to-take-eviction-case-in-california-behind-closed-doors/84073140007/

Hilarie Keys

I call it a high gum to tooth ratio

Sinead Feeney

There no multiple personality disorder in thr DSM. It's dis associative disorder. Lying is not a symptom. She most likely has borderline personality disorder with pathological lying as a feature.

Rainee Courtnage

I am so confused. I have Spotify and Patreon but no new episodes of crime in sports or small town murder appear when episodes show up in my notifications. WTF?

Rainee Courtnage

Me too 😅🥴

Dauntless Diva

Jimmie's line about her gums made me laugh so hard - not advisable as I just had a gum graft. How dare that woman have great gums while mine are shit.

Ashley W.

I really hope James took some time to relax after this recording! I was worried he was so keyed up he was going to have an aneurysm!

Erika Fultz

Isn't "Have you ever lied?" one of the taglines from The Room? lol

Gianna DeLuca

Sherbear sends me😅❤️

Justine Margo Patricia

I'm so glad the pillow bothered James. It really bothered me and I wondered if I was being weird haha.

Camille Stelmachowicz Marolf

As women we all know another woman who is SP 💯

Elizabeth Freeman

The best! SP is ICK personified!

Elizabeth Freeman

😂 would be interesting to see the real data

Jane Kendall

I will never watch the documentary bc I just can't sit there and stare that B on the screen but when I saw LPOTL was covering it on Patreon this morning, I immediately signed up so I could hear this episode. 😂 I am one of thousands of people that gave money to her GoFundMe, which she and Keith used to pay off their credit cards. 😂😂😂

Addie McClain

And if she was so scared of her husband - why call him to see if he would come home for “lunch”????? And I love that she thinks this doc is going to restore her good name or whatever.

LauraSue

People like Sherri with that much gum-line are all Disney adults. No I will not elaborate.

Benjamin Pierce

Her name is now: Sherri Waste of Decent Tits Pappini 🤣 I will call her nothing else ever again.

Amanda Knight

‘Pringle Can with a brick in it’ hahahahaha

Tony Legg

Jimmie!!!

RjA

I cussed and yelled so much at my TV when I watched this.

Monica Mars

Jimmie calling them free range ants got me some looks.

Michele S

"She's GOORGEOUS"

Riley

„Women in groups don‘t kill“ may be true - unless it‘s teenagers. 🙈😆

Julia Schwarthoff

This was one of those episodes that had everyone in my household looking at me crazy for laughing so hard with earbuds in. 🤣 So good!

Kelli Jo

Sherri reminds me of Gypsy Rose. Different stories but same amount of manipulation and lying.

Kathleen

I, too, knew someone like this, down to the being a little girl when she needed to be, the manipulation, and everything, and I never thought of the dissociative personality disorder part. Good call. That person also stayed in contact with all her exes and had them all believing they were still “the one”. And so much more. Watching this was a little triggering but I’m glad the documentarians didn’t just let her have her way with the story. Thanks again, James and Jimmie, for another great documentary episode.

Heithem El-Hodiri

Panini 🥪😭

Paige Shanahan

I know I can come here and get confirmation that this woman is a bonkers asshole, and get that confirmation in the most hilarious way. I cannot imagine crossing paths with someone like this. What a nightmare.

Amy Sousa

My husband had friends over one night when we first met and a gal showed up who was obsessed with his roommate. The roommate wanted nothing to do with her, so she went into the bathroom for a long time (the only bathroom). Someone had to piss, so they knocked to get her out of there, but she claimed to have taken a bunch of Tylenol because she wanted to kill herself. My future husband and a friend grabbed her arms and legs to carry her outside and left her. She quietly left and everyone had a good laugh. That is something Sherri Papini would do.

Jen Fred

Sherri Panini 🥪

Ashley Valencia

I live here too. I despise her

Hilarie Keys

Would love to hear an episode on her current nonsense. My gf was doing some googling after we watched and Panini is apparently squatting in an ex bf's house with a current bf.

Ricky Ibanez

"Heard his little elf shoes" 🤣

Grace Luterek

I wasn’t going to watch this, but now knowing she isn’t in control of the path it takes? Watching tonight.

Andrea L. Fellows

This chick. I have worked with women like her and they make life a living hell for everyone. So innocent, so ‘gorgeous’ and so manipulative. The worst!

Maureen Wilson

I follow them on Instagram where they post photos for each regular episode. People comment on the shows there. Fun!

Susan Maakestad

“They gave her all the rope to hang herself” is the perfect summation of the documentary

Jen Hoffman

I love your take on all of these cases. You both make them so much more entertaining to hear. I wish we could comment on the regular episodes.

Tracey

This is my hometown and I am ashamedly obsessed. My whole small office has seen this, and the Hulu one and we go off on this crazy woman 🤦‍♀️😂 They made the downtown look prettier than it is, and those lawyers are insane too! Her knocking shit over on her desk looking for her vape 😂

Leslie Alcantar

Discussed around 38min point. Being emotionally abusive can be a crime. Negligent infliction of emotional distress or intentional infliction of emotional distress are torts.

Carl

That ending had me laughing hard! "YOU'RE RUINING MY MOMENT!"

Danielle Carter

What’s up Turkeys? Lmao!!! “Poor” gorgeous Sherri Panini!🤣😅😂

Zachary Leatherwood

Loved this Patreon. I didn’t watch the doc. I can’t stomach watching that lady lie through her teeth to get more attention. Reminds me of Casey Anthony. And as someone who was in a narcissistic abusive relationship for over a decade that is not what her husband is. And the way she treated her kids after all this mess was terrible. Basically abandoned them after disappearing from them by choice. Just makes me sick

Tracy Poetz

Same! It makes me so mad and uncomfortable to watch someone just sit there and lie and try to manipulate the audience.

Tracy Poetz

Ok how much is she getting paid to just say the craziest shit?? And please Jesus Christ don’t let panini sandwich get her kids back.

Shayne Bartlett

Thank you for being so open, and for your insight. It does shed light on how one might be capable of behaving the way Papini did/does

Erin Grumbach

I have been trying to get through the series for the past week, but Ms Panini is hard to stomach for more than half an episode at a time. I finally finished it tonight and then jumped on here to listen to you guys go off on it. You picked up on all the extra crazy wtf things I did, and more! I’m gonna have to suffer that show again just to notice the things I didn’t the first time. Great show here. Js!

Erin Grumbach

I may be able to help here, i have been a compulsive liar, dont worry, I got it under control, thoughts pass through a check before they become words... and the thing is: you start to believe your own lies and one doesnt really care its a lie. With me it stems from trauma and a deep sense of not being enough, and the lies serve to get attention that you can then use to deal with the trauma without having to think about the actual trauma, so the lie is a bit of a stand in for the actual pain. But... that is not an excuse, I just thought it might be interesting to share this because it may shed some light on how in gods sweet name someone is capable of lying like that

Esther Peerdeman

I'd love to hear them do A Deadly American Murder.

Kathleen Potts

I’m surprised they didn’t bring up the forced alcohol inhalation on her kids

Sydney

I shan’t watch anything about that woman but I will listen to James and Jimmie read her for the filth.

Peace Ransom

"he said fuck you Santa and gave him the business". I'm fucking dead lmao

Shannon DeSilva

She does not have Dissociative Identity Disorder which used to be called multiple personality disorder. It is really rare and does arise from childhood trauma. No doubt she’d love to claim that diagnosis but I doubt she has it. She is a pathological liar and shows all the signs of someone with borderline personality disorder. She is narcissistic and blames everyone else except herself. I hope she gets a good therapist who can diagnose her properly but borderline disorder is very difficult to treat. And difficult to be in a relationship with someone who has it.

Susan Nelson

OMG! I now want to watch this dumpster fire 🔥 of a documentary! Great work James & Jimmy!

Jude Cope

I can’t believe she hasn’t tried that yet TBH

Grumpy Aunt

PANINI!!

Lesa Gibson

Such a great episode guys. Totally loved your outrage and descriptions. You both had me laughing every second. Thanks for a terrific bonus.

Nancy Clarke

Fucking dying at Jimmie making some extremely educated points about how psyche works and then just COMPLETELY derailing as he tries to come up with a word that isn't a double entrendre.

Sarah Zamenski

I don’t know if multiple personality disorder is a real thing, psychiatrists disagree on that. I think she’s a manipulator but I think she’s in control of it, not an actual disorder. Also - PhD level psychologists have to do clinical hours before they get licensed. They sometimes do work in hospital settings. (social workers too - not drs but do work in hospitals at times) Some are VERY competent but unfortunately not all. I think a lot of therapists are just smart enough to trick themselves. Also, any therapist (psychiatrist or psychologist) has to accept enough about the patient to form some kind of bond with them. You have to meet them where they’re at or it doesn’t work. It’s not that common for psychiatrists to do talk therapy anymore but those that do still need to find some acceptance for the patient in order to develop a rapport. So I think it’s tricky for them to be objective. A police psych professional doing an evaluation is different, but if you’re treating a patient you’ve got to have enough of a relationship that they’ll keep talking to you.

Grumpy Aunt

The boys were extra funny this episode. I just love them.

rebecca yeager

She doesn’t have multiple personalities. She’s just presenting different personas because she’s so manipulative. I’m sure she’d love to say it’s multiple personalities.

Molly S

Fantastic you guys. What a comedy she is. I’m in Australia so don’t know this drama. But you guys explain it so well. Thank you Graeme

Graeme Cooper

Way better than watching the interview.

Renata

Michelle Mackenzie

Stephen Tot

Nice! Now I can listen to this instead of watching the documentary ... which would be unenjoyable listening to Panini [sic] talk. Thanks for distilling it into comedy.

Troy Graham

This is gonna be awesome 😎

Tony Legg

Yessss. I've been waiting for this because wtf was that documentary. 😂

Chelsea Van Buskirk
