    Hi everyone! I’m Julie Mattson, and I’d love for you to join me for True Crime Club: Case #1 - Meet & Greet Night, an evening where mystery meets community. We’ll be sipping crafted cocktails, diving into compelling cases, and pouring over the evidence together with fellow true crime fans.

Whether you’ve been listening for a while or you’re brand new to true crime, this night is all about connection, conversation, and curiosity in a relaxed, intimate setting. Come have a drink with me, talk cases, and spend the evening surrounded by people who love true crime as much as we do. ✨ Crafted Drinks. Compelling Cases. ☕ Pour Over the Evidence. 🎟 Seating is limited — arrive early and settle in. I can’t wait to see you there. 👀 This is just the beginning… future cases coming soon!
