If you’re anything like me, you can’t get enough of Karen and Georgia and their true crime comedy podcast “My Favorite Murder”.
They recently released a new segment “Rewind with Karen and Georgia”, which includes commentary on their first episodes.
MFM has been around for 8 years and, as you can imagine, Karen and Georgia had to learn a lot along the way. Eight years ago, podcasting was nowhere near as common as it is now, and MFM was just something fun for them to do on the side.
Fast-forward 8 years, MFM is an award-winning podcast with a huge following across many streaming platforms, but that doesn’t mean they had it all together the first day.
Rewind with Karen and Georgia is a nice addition to the podcast and who doesn’t love hearing Karen and Georgia talk about true crime?

You can listen to “Rewind with Karen and Georgia” Episodes every Wednesday.
Original full-length episodes of MFM are released every Thursday and the Minisode episodes (where Karen and Georgia ready listener emails) are released on Monday.
This gives you 3 different episodes to listen to every week.
I started listening to MFM consistently about two years ago and I’m not the kind of listener that starts from episode 1 so I really appreciate “Rewind with Karen and Georgia” episodes.

People can grow tremendously in our 8 years and Karen and Georgia are very open about what they would do differently if they knew what they know now.
They are very candid about pointing out their cringy moments, like laughing at an inappropriate time or using words that are outdated or considered offensive now.
They also point out audio and technical difficulties they had when starting the podcast like having to hold the podcast microphone or noticing a particularly squeaky couch. Pointing out their struggles also opens the door for them to tell stories about how they overcame them and get a glimpse into their personal life 8 years ago.
Karen and Georgia also give any case updates or fill in more information about each of the cases. They freely admit that they started the podcast for fun and didn’t properly do research on each case when they first started.
How Many Episodes will Karen and Georgia Rewind?
They have been currently going in order rewinding episodes consecutively. For instance, the first week they started this flavor of episode they reviewed episode one. The second week they reviewed episode two…etc.
Karen and Georgia didn’t say how many episodes they will rewind, but since they have been in the game for 8 years and have plenty of content to dissect so I expect that they will be “rewinding” episodes for quite a while.
