Scams, Money, & Murder episodes

  • CONSPIRACY THEORY: The Mandela Effect

    In 2009, at a science fiction convention in Atlanta, a paranormal researcher named Fiona Broome discovered that strangers shared her vivid memory of Nelson Mandela dying in prison in the 1980s. Mandela walked free in 1990 and died in 2013. Broome named it the Mandela Effect, and the catalogue grew: a children's book spelled wrong, a logo with a horn that never existed, a Sinbad genie movie nobody made. Believers concluded that reality had been edited and their memories were souvenirs of a lost timeline. Then in 2022, University of Chicago researchers put the phenomenon in a lab, confirmed that huge numbers of strangers share the same specific false memories, and reported no clear explanation for why. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa examines the false memories millions of people share, the parallel-universe and CERN theories built to explain them, and the uncomfortable question underneath all of it: is it scarier to live in an edited universe or to have a mind that cannot be trusted?

  • Halloween Terrors: Masters of Horror | Osgood Perkins & Longlegs

    A filmmaker haunted by his family’s past. A doll that mirrored a tragedy. And a story born from grief, faith, and fear. Heidi Wong explores the real inspirations behind Osgood Perkins’s Longlegs: from Anthony Perkins’s hidden legacy to the JonBenét Ramsey “My Twinn” doll and the dark folklore of sympathetic magic.

  • BTK: The Killer Who Refused To Go Uncredited

    In January 1974, a family of four was found bound and killed in their Wichita home. The killer left nothing behind. Four months later, a letter arrived at a local newspaper describing details only the murderer could know, signing off with a name he'd chosen for himself: BTK. In the first part of our 3-part series on BTK, Katie Ring traces the early murders, the taunting communications that made him notorious, and the investigation that kept coming up empty.

  • SERIAL KILLER: The Axeman of New Orleans

    In 1918, a killer began slipping into New Orleans homes under cover of darkness, attacking sleeping victims with an axe and vanishing without a trace. The attacks targeted the city's Italian immigrant grocers, leaving a terrorized community wondering who would be next...and investigators scrambling to find a suspect they couldn't identify. As the body count rose, false arrests and coerced statements threatened to send innocent people to prison.

  • SOLVED: Lynette Dawson

    In January 1982, 33-year-old Lynette Dawson vanished from Bayview, on Sydney's northern beaches, and it would take 40 years to prove she had been murdered. A nurse and the mother of two young daughters, she had spent years trying to hold together a marriage to Chris Dawson, a former rugby league player and PE teacher the community adored. Months earlier, Chris had moved a teenage student into the family's spare room, and Lynette's friends had started noticing bruises on her arms. On the morning of Saturday, January 9th, she left to run errands and did not come home. Her clothes stayed in the closet, her bank accounts were never touched, and only her husband claimed to know where she was. In Part 1 of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy introduces Lynette Dawson, the marriage that was unraveling behind closed doors, and the ordinary Saturday morning she left to run errands and was never seen again. Please note, this episode contains discussion of domestic abuse and the sexual abuse of a minor and may not be suitable for all audiences.

  • True Poisoning Stories From Reddit

    Poison doesn't always come from a stranger. Sometimes it's stirred into your coffee by the person who claims to love you most.

    Sabrina Deana-Roga and Alexis Linkletter bring each other three terrifying poisoning stories from Reddit. A brother poisons his brother's girlfriend for years, a man grows suspicious that his mother put cyanide in his ramen, and a girlfriend slips Viagra into her boyfriend's drink without his knowledge. Each host hears the other's stories for the first time and reacts as the true motive behind each poisoning comes to light.

    Content Warning: This episode covers non-consensual drugging and sexual coercion. Please listen with care.

  • Michaela Garecht: Taken

    On the Saturday before Thanksgiving in 1988, nine-year-old Michaela "Kayla" Garecht and her best friend rode their scooters two blocks to a Hayward, California corner store for candy and soda. Minutes later, in a busy parking lot in broad daylight, a stranger grabbed Kayla, forced her into a car, and drove off. What began as an ordinary morning became one of California's most haunting disappearances: an eyewitness account that should have cracked the case, a crucial early mistake that sent police chasing the wrong man, and a trail that went cold before it ever got warm.

  • CONSPIRACY THEORY: Is Anyone Real Anymore? The Dead Internet Theory

    In 2021, an anonymous forum post floated a theory that sounded absurd: the internet effectively died around 2016, and most of what we now see online, the posts, comments, arguments, and trends, is generated by bots and AI designed to manipulate what we think, buy, and believe. People laughed, until the evidence started piling up. Bots surpassed human traffic online for the first time in 2024, more than a third of new websites are now AI-generated, and state actors run thousands of fake accounts to shape public opinion. With every passing month, the idea that the internet is fake looks less like a conspiracy theory and more like a description of reality. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, & Crimes, Vanessa examines the Dead Internet Theory, the mounting signs that much of the online world is no longer human, and the unsettling question of what happens to a society that can no longer tell the difference.

  • H.H. Holmes: The Real Story Behind America's First Serial Killer Pt. 1

    You've heard of H.H. Holmes. The murder castle, the gas chambers, two hundred victims lured from the World's Fair. Almost none of it is true. In the first part of our 3-part series on H.H. Holmes, Katie Ring strips away the legend and tells you what's actually in the record: The medical school scams, the two wives who never knew about each other, the building that hid things behind its walls, and the woman and child who vanished from it on Christmas Eve without a single person asking why.
