Chris Garcia likes to call people and tell them stories. Chris also loves True Crime. Chris also doesn't like violence. Each Episode of DIal-A-Crime features a call to someone who doesn't know what story Chris is about to tell them about a non-violent crime. It might be fraud, a conman, random civil codes, or even the occasional art heist. It's all the sociopathy of a True Crime podcast, without the bloodsplatter!
