Gordon Stewart Northcott was not a nice man, who murdered at least 3 boys at his ranch in Wineville, California. The murders themselves are not the strangest part of the story, however.

Please note - we are not a cult, just very good friends.
Alexander Litvinyenko was a Russian Spy (or, just, undercover detective state secret man, if you believe Ellie) who defected to the UK with some horrific consequences. Most believe he was killed by the Russian State, but this grisly death will leave you thinking...and probably put you off your tea.

Juliane Koepke had an unusual life by any measure - as a teenager, her parents had uprooted her life and had her move to the jungle so that they could study the diversity of animal life.

Join us as we discuss sweet cocktails, deadly snakes and Molly never wanting to step foot in a plane again.
HH Holmes may have inspired the legend of Sweeney Todd with his death chutes, hidden murder rooms and...quickslime? Join us as we discuss serial killing, the state of Idaho and the possibility of marrying a different woman in every US state.
