The Killdozer incident is one of the most disturbing and debated true crime stories in American history. This backstories episode breaks down the real story of Marvin Heemeyer, a small business owner who felt trapped, ignored, and pushed to his breaking point. After years of conflict with local officials in Colorado, Heemeyer secretly armored a bulldozer and went on a destructive rampage that shocked the nation.

We explore the background of Marvin Heemeyer, how the dispute escalated, the planning behind the Killdozer, and the two hour rampage that left millions in damage and raised serious questions about justice, government power, personal limits, and desperation. Was he a villain or a man pushed too far? This episode dives into the facts, the controversy, and the legacy of the Killdozer story.

This episode is all over the place in the best way. Handy and Maal talk about dating people with disabilities, Future getting roasted after taking his shades off, a girlfriend being told to stop her shower so her IBS boyfriend could survive, and what life would look like if we woke up as the opposite sex.

It’s uncomfortable, funny, dumb, honest, and very devious. No lessons. No filter. Just conversations you’re not supposed to say out loud.

Was Brian Wells a criminal… or a disposable pawn?

In this episode, Handy and Maal break down the shocking true crime case of Brian Wells, the pizza delivery driver forced to rob a bank with a bomb collar locked around his neck. What the media called a mastermind was actually a manipulated, intellectually disabled man set up to die from the start.

We unpack the moral dilemma of victim versus accomplice, how media narratives shaped public opinion, and why law enforcement failures sealed Wells’ fate. From the bomb’s design to the role of Marjorie Diehl Armstrong, this case exposes how easily society chooses a villain instead of asking the right questions.

This is a story about perception, manipulation, and a system that failed at every level.

Are relationships broken or are we just lying to ourselves?

In this episode, Handy and Maal go straight into the uncomfortable conversations people avoid. From whether therapy actually heals people or creates excuses, to double standards in intimacy, dating porn stars, cheating stories that spiral out of control, and family situations that can’t be saved.

We debate accountability, manipulation, loyalty, and why chaos keeps showing up in modern relationships. Nothing is off limits and nobody gets a clean pass.

If you’ve ever questioned therapy culture, relationship norms, or why people keep making the same destructive choices, this episode is for you.
