After covering the murderer known as the Original Night Stalker last week, this week we come back for the sequel.

Richard Ramirez’s upbringing seemed designed to create a monster, and create a monster it did. For just over a year in the mid-1980s, Ramirez made the citizens of Los Angeles and San Francisco live in fear, doing so with a string of ruthless robberies, rapes, and murders. This week, we look at his story.

BUT FIRST! This Week in Murder looks at a recently solved cold Case and an accused murderer whose case was dismissed after being tried SIX times. We also take our usual detours and side tangents.

And finally, we end with an extra special action (park) packed edition of Who Died The Worst?

True crime podcasts have come and gone, but Murder, My Dude will never leave you in the dark.

This week, we cover one of the most talked about serial murders in recent memory: the case of the infamous Golden State Killer. A robber, ransacker, and sexual predator, the GSK also killed over a dozen people in the 1970s and 80s and was recently brought to justice using a very innovative (and controversial) investigative technique.

Before we get into that, though, Jackson and B.P. engage in the usual banter and discuss two domestic incidents in This Week In Murder: One deadly, one nearly so.

And then we close with a back to school themed Who Died The Worst!

This week, we have an urgent request for you: please don’t reveal the secret ending of this episode to your friends.

Okay, fine. It ends the same way it always ends. We play Who Died The Worst. And a game of WDTW with an obvious winner, at that.

But before all that, we get into about a half dozen side tangents that make this the longest episode in MMD history! We also take a look at another officer involved shooting and a family feud turned sinister in This Week In Murder.

From there, we make our promised returned to fictional crime with this week’s feature: a deep, unflinching look at the all-time master of movie mayhem: Alfred Hitchcock. Join us as we look at his life, both professional and personal, and the everlasting effect he’s had on murder movies.

We’re still in the dog days of Summer, but Murder, My Dude is already thinking Fall with an episode that’d be fitting for Halloween season!

Richard Chase, best known as The Vampire of Sacramento, was a tortured soul for sure. Mental illness, drug abuse, and awful parenting combined to create a bona fide monster that Bram Stoker himself couldn’t have thought up. This week, we go over his horrendous crime spree.

But first, This Week In Murder takes a look at an arrest finally made in a case we’d covered in one of our first ten episodes. We also explore the heartbreaking - and oft politicized - murder that has turned a North Carolina Neighborhood (and, in all likelihood, your Facebook feed) upside down.

And, as always, we close with Who Died The Worst!

New season, same comedic true crime goodness!

From there, This Week In Murder returns with a look at a Pakistan shooting that caused a bit of an international incident and a new creepy insect that makes the murder hornets of a few months ago look downright normal.

In our featured story, we look at the tragic, twisty story of Juri “Julie” Kibuishi, a dancer and college student tragically killed in the apartment building of a friend and classmate she was tutoring. A friend and classmate who seemingly vanished without a trace after Julie was found dead in his bedroom…

And, as always, we close with Who Died The Worst! This weeks episode centers on fire and falling objects -- don’t miss it!

Hello, family. It’s the 3rd season finale of Murder, My Dude!

75 glorious episodes in, and we finally get around to one of the most sinister criminal groups of the 20th Century: the demented Charles Manson and his murderous family. The personification of late-sixties counterculture gone bad, the Manson Family claimed the lives of over a half dozen people in the Summer of 1969, and we cap off season three with their story.

But first, Jackson and B.P. have their usual half-hour or so of unrelated banter, followed by some more current news in This Week In Murder. Finally, we cap it off with a Cali-centric Who Died The Worst?

How does a true crime podcast mix together gruesome deaths and big laughs?

Give this episode a listen, and you’ll find out!

But first, you may want to skip to about 55 minutes in, as most of the first hour is one of our trademark Jackson Welles side rants, as he delves deep into the topic of race relations.

From there, This Week In Murder explores a fatal shooting targeting the family of a judge who was recently assigned a case related to infamous pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

And then, in our primary story, we look at the real life of the man who inspired the musical: Alexander Hamilton. Hamilton’s life is the original American rags to riches story, and his death perfectly encapsulates the wildness that was early American life.

Finally, we close with an NYC-themed Who Died The Worst?

This week, we head down South and take a look at a combination of two cases we don’t regularly cover on this show: a case where (probably) innocent party was found guilty and also a case that is (probably) unsolved. Those parenthetical probablys are the West Memphis Three: a trio of teenagers who were arrested for a particularly heinous crime.

But that was only the start of their story.

Elsewhere, This Week In Murder looks at arrests made in the murder of an up-and-coming rapper and the court wrangling that brought us the return of federal executions. Finally, we play an internationally-flavored round of Who Died The Worst?

Let's all jump back in time (has to be better than 2020, right?) to the year 1994! Starter jackets, Lisa Loeb glasses, and crushed velvet for everyone!

One name dominated the mid-nineties when it came to crime: OJ Simpson. The double murder of the NFL Hall of Famer's ex-wife and a waiter returning a pair of glasses to her home sparked the most famous low speed chase of all time and what was very likely the trial of the 20th Century! After a detour to discuss OJ's hidden history in an infamous Philadelphia Eagles moment, Jackson and B.P. discuss the Brown-Goldman murders and the insane aftermath following an unexpected verdict in the OJ Simpson double murder trial.

But first! This Week In Murder explores the Vanessa Guillen murder and a case involving white people, uh, stuff. Finally, we finish with a festive Fourth of July edition of Who Died The Worst?

It's hot as hell outside and that damn COVID is spreading all over the place again - at least here in the U.S. - so what better time to put the air conditioner on full blast and fire up an episode of Murder, My Dude that might be too hot for some to handle!

Up first, it's This Week in Murder with an update on two headline-grabbing cases: The Golden State Killer case and the shooting death of Ahmaud Arbery. We also cover another instance of retail DNA Genealogy kits solving a decades-old cold case.

From there, our featured story centers around the infamous John Holmes. Better known to adult entertainment aficionados as Johnny Wadd, Holmes lived a tumultuous, violent life, and that's the focus of this week's main story. In particular, we look at the Wonderland Murders (also known as the Four on the Floor Murders).

And as always, we close with a rousing game of Who Died The Worst!
