Killer Barbie: Karla Homolka

The press called her one half of "Ken and Barbie" a nickname that stuck long after the trial ended. This episode traces how that image was built, sold, and eventually picked apart across film, documentary, and courtroom testimony. Then we turn to the stars for a different kind of read, not as explanation or excuse, but as another lens on two people whose astrology, like their story, resists easy answers.

Cocaine Godmother: Griselda Blanco

Griselda Blanco wasn't just a drug trafficker. She was one of the most feared and powerful figures in the history of the cocaine trade. Known as the "Black Widow" and the "Cocaine Godmother," Blanco built a multimillion-dollar empire stretching from Colombia to Miami during the height of the cocaine wars. Authorities linked her organization to dozens of murders, though the true number may never be known. Ruthless, ambitious, and determined to dominate a world controlled by men, she became a criminal legend whose influence can still be seen in pop culture today. In this episode of The Femme Fatal, we explore the rise and fall of the Cocaine Queen, examine the myths and realities surrounding her violent reign, and conduct an astrological autopsy of the woman who helped shape one of the bloodiest chapters in the history of organized crime.
