    In honor of Independence Day (not the movie), we're going to Vietnam to highlight two incredible stories from soldiers who felt it necessary to prove how awesome America is. This might be my favorite episode yet.

  • 067 - Radovan Karadzic

    Send us Fan Mail

    This week is not for the faint of heart. This week we're talking about Radovan Karadzic, one of the key figured in the Bosnian conflicts of the 1990s. You may not have heard of this guy, but his story is insane.

  • 066 - Florida!

    Send us Fan Mail

    We've had stories take place in Florida before, but we've never had a full episode dedicated to America's weirdest place! You most likely will not be surprised by anything in this episode.

  • 065 - Budd Dwyer and Danny Casolaro (and More Conspiracies)

    Send us Fan Mail

    Two more completely unrelated stories this week. First, the story of the politician who killed himself on live TV, then the story of a journalist who may have gotten in way too deep. We also get into even more conspiracies.

  • 064 - Floyd Collins and Peter Woodcock (and Conspiracies)

    Send us Fan Mail

    We're doing something different this week. Rather than one short story or a series of stories that share a theme, we're covering two completely unrelated tales. First, there's the story of doomed spelunker Floyd Collins. Then, we go to Canada for the unfortunately named Peter Woodcock. We also bust a huge conspiracy wide open.

  • 063 - The Lesser Known Side of the Revolutionary War

    Send us Fan Mail

    Happy Memorial Day! This week we're looking at some lesser known stories from the Revolutionary War. It's all about people who were better than Paul Revere, a woman soldier, and an old man that wouldn't be stopped.

  • 062 - Dave Sanders

    Send us Fan Mail

    Here's a story you almost certainly have never heard. Dave Sanders wanted to be a hero, and he kind of was for a little bit, if only because no one knew he was a hero.

    Worst story ever? Perhaps! If you thought David Parker Ray was rough, maybe skip this week and come back to see what silly shenanigans we have for you next week.
