Sisters Yvette Gentile and Rasha Pecoraro are primarily recognized as the co-hosts of the wildly popular podcast “Root of Evil: The True Story of the Hodel Family and the Black Dahlia,” a 2020 iHeartRadio ‘True Crime Podcast of the Year’ nominee.

The dark story of their mother Fauna Hodel’s life garnered the attention of superstar Chris Pine (Star Trek, Hell or High Water), actress India Eisley (Underworld: Awakening, The Secret Life of the American Teenager) and award-winning director Patty Jenkins (Monster, Wonder Woman) and became a six-episode TNT limited television series “I Am The Night,” which premiered in January 2019.

Gentile and Pecoraro returned to the airwaves with a new weekly podcast from Tenderfoot TV and iHeart radio called “Facing Evil” in 2022. In Facing Evil, the siblings bring their unique perspective of growing up in a family with a dark history, to true crime with a focus on the victims and individuals at the heart of the stories.

“If we can make a difference and teach others how we can be better human beings by doing good in the world, we will have achieved what our mother stood for,” says the pair. “Our goal for this show is to find a light in the darkness and to bring awareness to those stories that are as deserving of the attention that our family has received. By shining light on these other stories of evil, we strive to foster healing.

Next up for the sisters will be a new weekly show focusing more on society and culture, coming from their unique sisterly perspective veering away from true crime, and sharing stories about overcoming trauma and always moving onward and upward. The sisters will talk about taboo topics like race, religion, sexuality, and life in general. No subject is off limits.
