BONUS - SMALL TOWN MURDER - THE DEVIL ON TRIAL

This week, James and Jimmie discuss the Netflix documentary: The Devil on Trial -- as well as other exorcism/court situations!

Comments

The first couple of times you said people sign their media rights over, I was really trying hard to figure out why they had meteorites. I finally figured it out when you mentioned movies/books. I thought at least one of you would get a laugh out of that.

Gypsy Lady

Just joined. Hope things are feeling brighter. Come live in Australia! Youre just like us! We will look after you 🔆🇦🇺✨️

“We’re jerking off and you guys are happy to catch it on the face” god I love these two

Marissa Boorse

David. What is his diagnosis? Seizures? Schizophrenia? Oh just got to the end. Poisoning?

melissa speirs

Argentina exorcism. Andrew Gold.

melissa speirs

You guys are fantastic! I’m sorry to hear y’all are going through a rough patch. Keep your heads up and don’t change a thing.

Cash Money Zehringer (Zair-ringer)

I've been selling you guys all wrong to my friends. I usually go with the "they're ass holes but not scum bags"... Now I gotta add "listen to their patreon too so you can take both barrels on the face" into my pitch. Believe me, my freaks will find this a bonus.

QuizzicalQueen

I couldn’t get into my Patreon for a bit so just catching up. Just wanted to say you guys are my favorite 😂

Jessica Rotondo

Have you ever thought about a Malachi Martin episode?

Grumpy Aunt

Glad you also can't stand the Warrens. My friend dragged me to a couple of talks by them back in the early 80s. First impression of them was "boy are these two full of horseshit"

Clare O'Lena

He's just catnip to demons 😂😂

Khalia Martin

I just joined your Patreon and hearing “happy to catch it on the face”… 🤌😂😂😂 ❤️❤️ Love you guys. Can’t wait to binge everything here!

Callie Smith

I love how pissed off James is 😂😂

Jessica Harden

I o pool lo

Marc Torr

Great Episode, love hearing people rip on the Warrens. Did get confused when I miss-heard Media Rights as meteorites, but that's a me issue.

Sylvia Muller

Love you guys - you are my bright spot too xxx

kathryn Clark

You guys fucking rock!

Jessica O'Dowd

I love you guys, you really are the best. Keep on being awesome!

Julie Hawkins

Yessss

Cheyanne Duffany

Love you guys!!!!

Cate Whittemore

Love you guys

Tammy Grubb

Somebody must have had some bad eggs. The chickens must be stove up

Donald Simmons

Love you guys! Thank you for all you do for us.

Amy Easton

i appreciate that ending. At least we know for sure- the J’s are on the right side of the situation here, which gives me great comfort, when I could really use it! Let karma carry Trump, and his insane loon-squad away as swiftly as can happen. Or me! One of us has to go! I loved this whole episode too. These Patreon shows are QUALITY episodes, and make me glad to be a member every time they come out.

Cher Strong (#localweedia)

Thank you guys for always making us laugh, much love for both of you!

Christiana

Look, I believe in ghosts but from what I have heard in the 20 minutes and 14 seconds that case just sounds like a kid having some kind of mental or emotional issue and using demons as an excuse to call his family cocksuckers(which they might be for buying into that rather thasay putting him in therapy)

Tyler Summers

Thought it was interesting that it started in Newtown, CT. ( where is Alex Jones)

Mr. AK

Oh hell! The mother was poisoning the kids! The evil cow.

Rosemarie Cawkwell

This is fascinating. I'm only 45 minutes into the episode. I haven't seen the documentary because my sister revoked my Netflix privileges when she moved out, but it sounds dull! Although the case itself sounds bizarrely entertaining. A pubescent kid who's probably being bullied/abused and doing normal almost teenager stuff to get attention/dealing with trauma, a drunk for a future brother in law, and a couple of grifters, is a potent combination. Add to that a religious family and a cultural environment that actually believes in devils and demons, or at least proclaims that they do, along with paranoia, and you get a dangerous mix. The Satanic Panic is another example of this same phenomena. James and Jimmie always have some brilliant takes on this stuff. I loved the conversation about who's worse, grifters or child abusers. I find the Warrens reprehensible and disgusting. It's a shame they never got their just desserts in life, and that their daughter is continuing the grift. Thanks for your work guys, and to the team that keeps you going in the background.

Rosemarie Cawkwell

Yes, I've heard of that case! The whole family forced her into the fireplace and burnt her. Eventually, someone pulled her out of the fire, but she was already burnt so badly she died. It was like a group hallucination, caused by a drunk man convinced his wife had run off with the fairies. It's horrible!

Rosemarie Cawkwell

I saw the exorist in 1973, I was 12. And I would imitate Linda Blair from the movie and freak my brother and his friends our. I resembled her too! I played with a ouija board as a kid. And I'm good now🤣

Laura T

You guys are the best! Fuck 'em and be yourself. We are not going anywhere.

Kristal Kinzer

I think we get the podcasts a week or two after they record them, so I would say it would be the next couple of weeks after you first sign up. Don't quote me on that, tho!

Michelle Miller

Aw! I’m with you guys. It’s a tough world right now. Thanks for being you and being honest.

Emily Gold

My favorite part was when the demon called the mother “pork chop”. That’s not something a fat kid would say at all.

Steve Pestey

I have no words for how hard you guys make me laugh. Like, I have to watch where I listen to these because I look like a lunatic out in public sometimes. 🤣 This episode was gold standard. We love you guys!!

Amy Sousa

I'm dealing with the same thing. I joined patreon but now on Spotify there's all kinds of new shit but can't get it because of wondery

Daniel Spatz

No thank you guys for being such a much needed positive for us especially now. I know I'm not alone and you guys have been a big help for me over some rough years so thank you. Also James, thank you for making Big Pimpin a song I can't laughing through, everytime Pimp C's part come on I die laughing 🤣 As a New Yorker who likes some southern rap (Nyack,NY) yeah I don't know what he is saying exactly 😆 ✌🏾

Ray Bullock

Sending love to Jimmy and James from Newcastle 🇬🇧. Thank you for the laughs . I stopped watching the news as the world does feel very dark.

Adelle

I just joined & want to add this feed to spotify. I have done it with other podcasts, but I’m struggling to add this! Help?!

Hannah

"What year did The Exorcism come out?" Had me fucking ROLLING

Steven Cooley

Austin bound from Vegas ❤️ First live show, can’t wait!!!

buckwild_becks

I second that

Alicia Grant

Just wanted to say how much we appreciate you two. I am so glad I found this podcast when I was struggling with vision issues and still am. I turned my husband on to all your podcasts. We look forward every week to escape all the real world crap. We may be older but have the sickest and most juvenile sense of humor. We feel like you get us. I could go on and on I sing you praises and tell everyone I know to listen to you. ♥️

Alicia Grant

Much love to you Jimmie and James! It seems that everyone is struggling nowadays. A little kindness and comedy go a long way! Been a Patreon supporter for years now and despite all my financial changes, I’d never miss out giving you guys the love you deserve.

Shanna Howse

When you get on patreon how long does it take for them to give you a shout out at the end of small town murders

Tony j Yates

Thank you guys

Aaron

Always appreciate you guys!

midge_mayhem

Is it weird that I could tell something was wrong with Jimmie. Well just so you know I'm not the healthiest girl you'll ever and you guys have helped me immensely. I mean alot I'm literally losing my ability to walk and I need these laughs to help keep my mind off of things. You guys have no idea.

Victoria Sterling

Love you guys! Sorry times are rough and you still have to keep working your asses off. You have no idea how much it means to me and the rest of us who wait for each and every episode you create to drop every week, pod and Patreon alike. ❤️

Reggie Dunlop

I’m glad it wasn’t just me falling asleep trying to watch it 😂😂

Emily Miller

Love, love, love James and Jimmie! They make my week so much better! I’ve recruited many friends and family who also love their shows! Stay strong. ❤️

Sharon Raesly

i love listening to you two it’s the highlight of my week and i recommend you two to almost everyone i love everything you do for us as a community, i love you both ❤️ you make my life easier to go through

LaurAnne Luthi

you guys should do a patreon of just ed and lorraine warren

LaurAnne Luthi

I really appreciate you taking the time and effort to put all of these shows together every week. I always look forward to your shows- they make me laugh and forget about the craziness in the world. Love you guys! ❤️

Jenna Zanti

This episode was hilarious. To echo what others said, you guys are awesome! Been listening to all your shows since 2018. Keep your heads up. You help a lot of people find laughter in life and that is a gift to the world.

Emma Mitchell

You always give people the dumb hillbilly accent . Cracks me up😂

Bonnie Hunt

We get you and we appreciate the fuck outta you two for the laughs.

LayzieSF

There are over 60 Amityville movies! With about a dozen of those being mockbusters.

Alysha Friedlander

Just watched the virtual live show. My wife thought Jimmie was Teenwolf. Hahaha

Tony Legg

Her daughter and son in law run the YouTube now

Jessica Nichols Seymour

Jimmy" They fucked the devil right outa him"..sparkling observation even when your both not 100%..you total legends. Take care..💪

Davey Boy.

I get Jimmy's confusion with Amityville. The DeFeo family murders were committed by the son, Ron Jr (it's always a junior). Then another family bought the house, realised they couldn't afford it, and cooked up a story that the house was haunted. They were hoping that having to flee a haunted house would get them some of the money back that they paid for it.

Mary-Anne Jack

James stumbling through that Latin was like Jimmie trying to read a list of names. 😏

Sarah Zamenski

Hugs 💗

Sarah Zamenski

What you all do matters—from James and Jimmie to y’all working hard behind the scenes. So many folks here are sharing how much your content has helped them—you’re honestly changing lives for the better, including mine. Hope we can all keep taking it on the face for years to come <3

Nicole H.

I've seen many others express similar sentiments as I'm about to say, but I'm going to do it anyways. In regard to your message of gratitude and thanks to your patrons, just wanted to express my gratitude and thank to you two (and the STM/CIS/YSO crew). It is undoubtedly a dark and scary time, but as American Aquarium says, "we must go boldly into the darkness and be the light." Thank you for being a part of that light.

Adam White

SIZZLED!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Jeremy Hislop

I had a comment locked and load, but then I heard you guys are having a rough patch When I started listening, you guys seemed off your usual awesome game. Then I realized, helz you guys are allowed to have off days also. We all expect you to life our horrible days out of the ditch with no consideration to what's going on with you. I recently lost someone I love more than life, I don't think I'd still be alive to make this comment without having you guys to listen to. So thanks and hang in there ❤️

Mishell Centeno

Hey Steph, I know exactly how you feel. My life just took a turn for the worse and without James and Jimmie in my ear, I don't know what would become of me. Stay strong and know you're not alone ❤️

Mishell Centeno

Sorry that you are going through some tough times. I love you guys and appreciate all of the content that you give us. Your podcasts as all fantastic and I constantly tell people to listen :)

Lori Coble

The Warrens traumatized the whole world with Amityville.

Ginger Thomas

Once again you guys saved me from wasting my time watching some bullshit. Thank you! You guys always have a reasonable take on things and I particularly love James mentioning Occam’s razor I.e. the simplest explanation is usually the best.

Judy Anderson

I was gonna leave a nice comment and then the last 30 secs threw me for a loop 😂😂😂

Cam 🛸

Have you tried the Dollop? They’re similar.

Maria Hunter

Or silence. The great worrier of parents the world over.

Kristi Crider

YES!! Holeeeeyy shit buckets!! And those two "Demonologist" brothers(I refuse to use braincells remembering their name.). They had an awful show some number of years ago.

Kristi Crider

There are 16 Amityville movies!! They completely jump the shark!

Natalie Meyers

The Warrens are horrible people! This case fascinated me, poor boy!

Natalie Meyers

This was great! I laughed so hard. I also know what POS the late Warrens were. So sorry you guys are going through some rough things and your comments about us being your bright spot led me to write this message. I have been meaning to comment on how your show has helped me get through some of the worst events of my entire life over the last 3 years. Seriously. I searched for comedic podcasts to take my mind off things because I desperately needed a good distraction but I couldn’t find any podcast that “worked” for me until I came across yours. I have the same dark sense of humor and attitudes and it was amazingly funny and interesting to me. I’d just play a show when I was really down or heading down to take me out of it. And some times my mood has been very very dark, suicidal (but I never wanted to kill myself - I just couldn’t find any coping skills that actually worked when I was that bad). SO, 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 to you for keeping me alive, lol 😅.

Steph

Technically, I don't have to swallow, I'm in. Not sure if you ate too much asparagus. Hang in there! You are beautiful souls in a dark world. You can't let them win!

Krissy B

You guys are the best!!

Amy White

We love you guys!

Brandon Tillottson

Thanks for the laughter

Elisa Kreisler

Jimmie…😂😂 Gerbils & vasoline….. omg. You continue to make me laugh like a lunatic !! Y’all are literally the ONLY podcast I listen to. When I do try to listen to one - 99.9% of the time, I can’t. And it’s because y’all are the gold standard that I hold all other podcasts to. Haven’t found one that can hold my attention or make me laugh like y’all do. I saw y’all live in Dallas last year & it was amazing. Thank you for being YOU!!

LauraSue

I want a series of just you two ripping apart the Warren files 😭😭

Karl Nagurski

Just not in the eye🤣🤣🤣

Si Fyi

Y’all got me wheezing 🤣 As someone who is interested in the paranormal/supernatural and true crime I was SO disappointed in this documentary and love your take! Also want to take the opportunity to say thank you 💜 it has been a tough month for me for multiple reasons and you both have gotten me through so much with just your jokes and laughter. You do so much more than you realize 💜

Marina Lindland

Last pod on the left did a series on the Warrens and I highly recommend listening to see how big pieces of shit they were

Trav

Love these bullshit stories guys, please keep em coming. My annual Patreon sub to you two is the only subscription of any type I have that doesn’t leave any sort of sour taste in my mouth. 😂🤞🏽

Cory Dyani

This is the funniest shit

Tim Haley

Jimmie - Your infectious laugh has pulled me out of some of my darkest moods. You always talk about how we help you through dark times, but PLEASE know that there are days your laugh has made all the difference. Sometimes I think I laugh harder at your reactions than the joke itself. It's such a bright spot in the day. You are the perfect color commentator to James' narration. I know life was rough for both of you for many, many years. I'm incredibly happy you've both found success and happiness. James - I know you're a big fan of "Frasier", given how often you reference it. So I know you'll appreciate this. :) "Frasier" was always my background comfort show. It got me through Covid, my parents' deaths, and daily life in general. I had it on pretty much 24/7. I discovered you guys in 2023. Now, instead of "Frasier", I find myself listening to back episodes of STM. You guys are my new Frasier and Niles. I'll let you decide who "that other one" is. :)

Sarah Zamenski

My favorite thing from the documentary is when the "possessed" kid called the priest a "fat dick pork chop" 😆

Bret Hagen

You guys continue to help keep me sane through a divorce, 4 hour commutes, and the rough parts of parenting. Thank you for being amazing!

Brianna Exume

YOU 2 are the bright spots. Eff the haters!!!! We freakn LOVE you!!! You have gotten me through a really rough year + and I can’t thank you enough! I hope to get the opportunity to see you in person someday. Don’t let the a-holes get you down! 🫶🫶🫶

Jodi Smith

“Stop it. Go on.” Jimmie 🤣

Jen Ward

Dark and ugly indeed, Jimmie. I just wanted to reach through my phone & hug you both. Thanks for the laughter & smiles you continue to bring. ❤️❤️

Brandi H

I hope you guys know how much you mean to so many of us! Sometimes, especially during a dark day, familiar voices and humor can do more than you can possibly know. Take care of yourselves, and I hope the rough edges smooth out. Thank you James, Jimmie, Sarah, Ian, Allison, and anyone else who works on the shows, I appreciate you!

Tammy Hedrick

Sorry you are going thru hard stuff. I am thankful I can listen to your stuff. My type of humor. You've made me laugh during my tough crap the last few years. Wish you happiness! Hate that the world sucks sometimes.

Lisa Danforth

Aweee the ending 🥺🫶🏻

Rebecca Swift

I love how James and Jimmie experienced and can discuss old cultural relics and old tech because their takes on it are a scream.

Navarra Good

Thank you The other blathering bitches that throw there 2 cents in can go find a fuck and get off. I appreciate you all for everything

GD2D

I will happily take it on the face 🤣♥️ I love you guys so much

Kari Salwey

The Amityville Horror, for people who don’t know, was about the Lutz family who moved into a house they got cheap because there was a mass murder in the house a couple of years prior. They stayed about 30-40 days and said there was all kinds of demonic activity that forced them out. The Warrens were brought in and there was a book deal that made the story famous. They later came clean and said it was a hoax. The Defao family was the mass murder. The son killed his entire family.

Jaimie Harris

You guys help me get through my days! I'm often stressed as the kids are 4, 2, and 1, but having a James and Jimmie podcast on one earbud while listening for screaming or crashes gets me motivated to keep at it, fold laundry, put away dishes - literally mom's secret helper 😄

PennyfarthingParade

I am so glad that James feels about the Warrens as I do! I effing hate them!

Jaimie Harris

"The priest gives a little extra squirt squirt in the bad rooms." That's been going on in rectories for centuries.

Angelina Marconi

Can’t wait to watch this and laugh my ass off!

Elizabeth Freeman

Haven’t watched this but it’s going on my list. I hate to hear y’all are having a tough time, especially since y’all bring such humor to my life. Love y’all and hope things get better soon!

Jennifer Hadad

Thanks for the laughs guys! You have been in my ears all week, laughter is the best! 💖💖

LouLou Rogers

Lmao, it's all bullshit. Dude was too drunk. If you look at the "hauntings" from the Conjuring movies still were haunted when the Warrens left, all the stuff kept happening. I love that you found out about Eds 15 yr old girl he got pregnant. It's all stupid, exorcists started really happening after the movie in 73. If the Warrens cared they would've done their fake work for free. I couldn't make it thru 20 mins of this doc.

Dr Phil Goode 👹🌲🔥

Poking your head over the well yelling “demon!”just made me think of “can I pet that dog?” “Can I summon that demon? Can I summon that demon?” 😈

Jennifer Hadad

"What is cock sucker?" 🤣🤣

Kyle Bearce

Here in Ireland there was also exorcism of fairies and changelings. Which in one infamous incident in the Late 1800s led to a man setting his wife on fire killing her because he thought she had been replaced. Also Protestants do a form of exorcism, my dad was a member of the church of Ireland clergy and a guy he trained with was the church of Irelands chief exorcist far less invasive mostly prayers, blessings and moving any small items that could be affected to consecrated ground.

Stephen Watts

🤣🤣🤣mushrooms and bell peppers🤣🤣🤣

Shayne Bartlett

Me, too! It was not the greatest documentary but I got through it thinking, “I can’t wait to hear what James and Jimmie have to say about this!”

Heithem El-Hodiri

Same, it matters a lot to me. I can't afford it right now, but when I get the money, I have a "Cheer up, bitch!" tattoo all thought out. That's how important these two have been in getting me through my own dark times.

Julia

Thanks guys this was great ✌️

Coleen

Love you guys, too. Thanks for always maintaining a strong anti-grifter stance, even when it's an unpopular opinion to hold.

Julia

You two are my remedy against depression and I am happy to be yours🥰😝

Esther Peerdeman

100% agree on your grifter/child molester debate....my parents were one of each 🥴

Cosmo's ma

Just watched the show before listening to this Patreon, it ended and I said “well that sucked and a waste of time”

Joe the Cynic

The demon in the well 😂😂😂

Sarah Moriarty

Was anyone else waiting for Jimmie to quote Tombstone when James was reading Latin?

Jeff Stanton II

You guys are the best. I think life sucks for a lot of us right now and maybe one day things will be better. Maybe.

Lizzie

Thanks for keeping us laughing (and making *our* worlds a little less dark, too). We love you guys.

Thomas

Love you two mules. Keep on ridin

Brian Kush Flowerchild BMX

It hurts my soul to hear Jimmie upset. Idk if the guys read these comments, but if you do...Jimmie listening to you giggle for a few hours every week gives a lot of us life. Don't forget that and I hope shit gets better for you.

Brandi Huntley

Fkn love you guys!

Krystal Hope

Great Patreon episode as always, though at the end I was sorry to hear that you guys are going through a rough time. I admire your commitment to not taking yourselves too seriously. However, I just want to say that it may seem like what you do doesn't necessarily "matter", it does bring humor and a level of comfort to many, myself included. This was especially true during a particularly difficult time in my life. I desperately needed the laughter and escapism, yet I couldn't stomach almost any content during that period as I was feeling even more jaded and cynical than usual. A sincere thank you for always being genuine, and thus, palatable.

Andrea

Oh I so agree—that documentary SUCKED!

Sphynx

Holyshit this episode is Gold 😂

Plinio Flavio Gonzalez Segovia

I thought about watching this before listening and I’m glad I didn’t! Thank you for another great episode

Leslie Alcantar

The 2 ones that aren’t playing/loading and have a lock symbol are just ones from a week in advance that you have to pay more for. The following week they load and play for free for everyone. As for the “bonus” button below all the episodes, it’s advertising that if you pay for Wondery you can listen without ads. They haven’t taken away anything, nothing was ever “lost”, its more like they recorded a couple podcasts ahead of time and you can either pay for early access or listen free next week. I’ve listened for many years and I can tell you they never backtracked. It’s more like got all the way caught up and now you want to listen to next week when it hasn’t dropped yet.

Paige Spencer

I need to ask a question. Please James don’t be the snarky bitch that you can be. Wtf is going on with my Spotify regarding your podcast? It’s like everything is locked down. I’m obviously a pat member and have been for years ( yes I had to fucken re up when $ got tight). Now there is this wondery bullshit? I went to Amazon so I can listen to the pod cast. I’m just wondering. If you want to release your “stupid opinions” or “crime in sports” as a free pod cast and hold out stm That’s cool. Or whatever the fuck you wanna do regarding the release of your pod casts. Just give me a fucken heads up. I’ll pay for your fucken content, just don’t make it a fucken surprise. I know I texted “fucken”, which you ridicule mercilessly in the past regarding the texts/ reviews of others. I’m standing firm on my use of “fucken”; additionally I’m standing firmly on my statements regarding the current bullshit that appears you are pulling. Thank you for your time.

GD2D

Great episode! Thanks for what you guys do!

Ryan Selland

YAAAAAAYYYYYYYY

Madelyn Bryant

Can’t wait to see you live in Boston!!!!! 🖤🖤🖤
