Its another solo episode from Bill...But, things will be back to normal soon hopefully. I really appreciate you all sticking with me!

Tonight, I'm covering Benjamin and Erika Sikrit. Benjamin, a failed Navy Seal, with a taste for the wild side of life, who believed he was owed everything. Erika, a woman who lived a very strict yet neglected upbringing with daddy issues.

When the thrill of the SEALS was lost to him, he turned to crime, and brought Erika with him. They wound up killing a couple as a dress rehearsal to kill Erika's wealthy parents.

But, their capture is one of the more dumb ones, proving that criminals will usually take care of their undoing on their own. And, Listener Favorite, Michael Lang makes an appearance in this one as well!

We're back! Kind of...Bill released a solo episode to get something out there. He explains the situation in the episode.

Tonight, we're covering Eric Locke, an Irish ass clown who was born with a deformity in the nether regions. He later used that as an excuse for stalking and murdering a sweet woman, who actually pretended to care about this chucklehead, because she was a good person. He rewarded her kindness by killing her.

We will be back soon, but we don't have a specific date. Sorry, no video for this one.

In this brutally satisfying episode of Crimes, Killers, Cults and Beer, we dive into the dumbest decisions that brought some of the world’s most dangerous serial killers to justice. These weren’t master criminals brought down by genius detectives—they were their own worst enemies. From Israel Keyes using his victim’s debit card at ATMs on camera, to Arthur Shawcross returning to the scene of the crime for a snack, to Dennis Nilsen casually calling a plumber about human remains in his drain—these guys practically handed themselves over.We’re cracking open a cold one and laughing through the jaw-dropping idiocy of killers who couldn’t help but leave a trail of breadcrumbs straight to prison. Sometimes evil isn't just cruel... it's really, really stupid.

When U.S. Air Force Captain Marty Theer was gunned down in a Fayetteville parking lot just days before Christmas in 2000, authorities were baffled. But as investigators unraveled the case, they discovered a tangled web of lies, betrayal, and a deadly love triangle. At the center? His wife, Michelle Theer — a seemingly sweet marriagecounselor with dark secrets and a dangerous lover.

In this episode of Crimes, Killers, Cults and Beer, we dive deep into the shocking murder-for-hire plot that rocked a military community and sparked a national media frenzy. From internet affairs to cold-blooded conspiracy, this is the story of how love, lust, and manipulation led to murder.

Grab a drink, and join us as we explore the twisted case of Marty and Michelle Theer — because sometimes, the most dangerous people are the ones closest to you.

Cindy McKay thought she was a criminal mastermind—but in reality, she was more Dollar Store than Oceans Eleven. In this episode, we dive into the ridiculous rise and spectacular fall of Cindy McKay: con artist, arsonist, murderer…and, frankly, an idiot.

From scamming neighbors with laughably bad schemes to setting fires she couldn’t control (or even properly plan), Cindy’s life of crime wasn’t just evil—it was embarrassingly sloppy. We’ll follow her bumbling trail of fraud, greed, and flaming stupidity all the way to her inevitable downfall.

How did this walking disaster manage to cause so much chaos? And how did it all go up in smoke—literally?

Pour yourself a cold one and buckle up. This is one messof a story.

You want cats? WE GOT CATS! LOTS of them! Sorry, not sorry for the cliffhanger though! And part 2 is MUCH more intense than part 1.

In this chilling conclusion to our two-part deep dive into Sheryl Ruthven’s dark world, we follow her as she launches the notorious cat cult—a bizarre and twisted extension of her control. Ruthven forced her followers to take in up to 30 cats each, demanding they prioritize these animals over their own families.

With mounting financial demands and increasingly strange rituals, her grip tightened, driving her followers deeper into her warped and evolving religion.

Join us as we uncover the full extent of Ruthven’smanipulation and the devastating fallout that followed.
