73.) Scott Amedure aka "The Jenny Jones Show Murder"
Description
A surprise crush confession. A camera-ready setup. And a murder just days later.
In 1995, Scott Amedure revealed he had a crush on a friend during a taping of The Jenny Jones Show. Three days later, he was dead. The trial that followed ignited a national firestorm around tabloid television, outing culture, and the dangers of performative shock for ratings.
This episode unpacks the queer tragedy that changed daytime TV—and left behind a haunting legacy of media exploitation.
Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light—all with a cold one in hand.
