Josh Mankiewicz and Blayne Alexander sit down to talk about Josh’s episode "The Widow of Woodland Hills.” In 2017, celebrity hairstylist Fabio Sementilli was stabbed to death in what appeared to be a home robbery. Blood left inside the victim’s beloved Porsche led detectives to uncover a killer and a torrid affair. Josh shares a podcast-exclusive clip from his interview with Fabio’s sister and tells Blayne what he learned about the special team of investigators who followed the two lovers suspected of the murder. Plus, they discuss Josh’s iconic accessory as they answer your questions from social media.
