Hey, friend,

Thank you for joining me for Running Scared with Coach Christine. I'm a Level 2 RRCA and Galloway certified coach, but more importantly, I'm someone that knows it's so much easier to get out for your run or walk when you have something to look forward to that helps with motivation.

So if you are like me and are a runner or walker who enjoys hearing a true crime case or spooky tale, welcome! You have found your corner of the internet.

As a former candy raver, I was all about PLUR - Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect so when I learned about the tragic murder of Angel Melendez at the hands of Micahel Alig, I was so upset and also so obsessed. Like how did this happen? Well, friends, the answer was easy, fame, power, and mental illness exacerbated by serious drug abuse.

However, the club kid scene did have its highlights, mainly thanking the drag queen heavens for giving us all RuPaul, but other famous folks, including Lady Bunny, Amanda Lepore, James St. James, Superstar DJ Keoki, and Richie Rich.

James St. James wrote about this case and his experience as Michaels #1 Frenemy and Club Kid in Disco Bloodbath. And that book was turned into the movie Party Monster with Macaulay Culkin, Seth Green, Chloe Sevigny (also part of the club kid scene), Natasha Lyonne, and Wilmer Valderrama.

You can also watch some of the daytime tv highlights including this episode with Geraldo Rivera >>
