Episode 31
Thursday, 8 January, 2026

Philadelphia is a historic city — but right now, its story is being written in blood.In this episode of Stuttering in Silence, Matt and Gavin take a hard look at the ongoing murder crisis in Philadelphia and ask the uncomfortable question: why isn’t it getting better? Despite promises, policy changes, and public outrage, the violence continues — leaving families broken, communities traumatized, and answers painfully scarce.We break down the patterns behind the killings, the neighborhoods most affected, and the systemic failures that keep this cycle alive. From repeat offenders and under-policing to poverty, politics, and public trust, this isn’t just about crime stats — it’s about people being forgotten.✔️ What the numbers really show ✔️ Why solutions keep falling short ✔️ Who pays the price when leadership fails ✔️ How fear becomes normalThis episode isn’t meant to shock — it’s meant to force a conversation. Because when murders become routine, something is deeply wrong.
