Crime Junkie<\/strong>: Serial Killer: The Butcher Baker of Alaska<\/a>. The latest Butcher, Baker<\/em> wave has begun. In this new media world, one broadcast inevitably begets another. It started with Oxygen’s Mark o<\/a>f<\/a> a Killer<\/a>. Hit a new high with ID’s The Butcher Baker: Mind of a Monster<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the Radar<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Within the past week, I have: interviewed with Nancy Grace<\/a> for a podcast on Butcher, Baker<\/a>; gave permission for DailyMailTV<\/a> to use one of my photos for, you guessed it, a “deep dive segment” on Alaskan serial killer Robert Hansen. And then, this morning, I got some pingbacks for yet another podcast episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crime Junkie<\/a>, for those who haven’t heard, is currently the No. 1 true-crime podcast. Hosts Ashley Flowers and Brit Prawat<\/a> provide a breezy and breathless production that, in 50-short-minutes, recreates some of the most haunting true crime stories of our day (with some historical examples like Butcher, Baker <\/a>thrown in). The format comes across as two best friends gossiping, over coffee or tea, about crimes that blow their minds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s Next?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It’s hard to say what’s next. I have learned patience. That’s in great part because the first movie offer for Butcher, Baker<\/em> came back in 1992. Nothing happened, because the producer wanted to set it in Georgia. Georgia? Give me a break. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then came The Frozen Ground<\/a> in 2013. That certainly gave Butcher, Baker<\/em> a second-life (actually a third-life, but who’s counting?). But that movie, though set in Alaska, really wanted to be on a desert island, just like The Most Dangerous Game<\/a>, the movie that inspired it. I consider it a blue-collar version of the original film — grittier, with not quite enough of Hansen’s stutter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which takes us to this moment, when Butcher, Baker<\/em> is enjoying… What? A sixth life? Yeah. Let’s hope it’s a cat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And by the way, What Happened in Craig<\/a><\/em> is pretty damned good too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
