  • The Salad Bar That Started a War: The Rajneesh Movement

    Led by Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (Osho), the movement built a utopian commune in Oregon that devolved into bioterrorism, immigration fraud, and assassination plots. In 1984, members carried out the largest bioterror attack in U.S. history by poisoning salad bars to sway a local election. The case shows how charismatic leadership and insular power structures can turn spiritual movements into criminal enterprises.

  • Tom Brown: A Teenage Secret

    On the night before Thanksgiving 2016, eighteen-year-old Tom Brown left his home in Canadian, Texas to go cruising with friends. But he never came home. When his red Dodge Durango turned up the next morning at a sewage treatment plant on the edge of town, there was a bullet casing on the floor and a drop of his blood on the door handle, but no sign of Tom. What followed was two years of strange discoveries: his backpack found miles away across the Canadian River, his phone resurfacing in near-perfect condition, and security footage of someone driving his car around that tiny town for hours while people were out looking for him. When a deputy finally stumbled across some of Tom's remains in 2019, the bones gave up nothing. No cause of death. No answers. The case was shelved, and Tom wasn't buried until nearly nine years after he vanished. Somebody knows what happened that night in Canadian. They just haven't said.

  • China's Bigfoot featuring Maci and Nadoly from GHOSTEAS

    For over two thousand years, the Yeren — China's legendary wildman — has haunted the mountains and folklore of rural China, inspiring fear, government bans, and even a state-funded scientific expedition. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa traces the creature's origins from ancient poetry to modern eyewitness accounts, and follows the researcher who spent fifty years hunting for proof. What he found raises a fascinating question: what if the monster was never a monster at all?

  • Ben Drowned

    In September 2010, a college student bought a used copy of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask at a garage sale, and discovered a save file named BEN belonging to a boy who had drowned years before. What started as glitchy gameplay quickly became something far more sinister: a presence that manipulated the game, invaded his computer, and refused to be deleted. Ben Drowned is the creepypasta that redefined internet horror... and it may have been watching you all along.

  • D.B. Cooper: The Man Who Hijacked A Plane, Took $200,000 and Vanished

    On the day before Thanksgiving, 1971, a man named D.B. Cooper walked up to an airport counter, paid cash for a one-way ticket, and boarded a commercial flight. By the time the plane landed, he had collected $200,000 in ransom, strapped it to his body, and jumped out the back of a jet. No one has seen him since.

    In the first of three episodes on D.B. Cooper, Katie Ring takes you back to November 24th, 1971: who this man was, how he pulled off one of the most audacious crimes in aviation history, and what the evidence left behind actually told investigators.

    This episode involves descriptions of a hijacking and the threat of violence. Please listen with care.

    In early 1970s Houston, Texas, businessman Dean Corll used free candy, a party-ready apartment, and a carefully cultivated reputation as a community pillar to lure teenage boys to their deaths. But behind his friendly facade, Corll was systematically grooming victims... and recruiting young accomplices to help him carry out increasingly brutal crimes. This episode traces his childhood, his escalating predatory behavior, and the first chapter of a murder spree that would claim dozens of lives.

  • Kris Kremers & Lisanne Froon: What the Camera Saw

    In April 2014, Kris Kremers and Lisanne Froon, two Dutch women in their early twenties, went for a daytime hike on a trail near Boquete, Panama. They never came back. Weeks later, their backpack was found on a jungle riverbank with their phones, camera, and cash still inside. What was on that camera changed everything: photographs taken in total darkness over several days, including what appears to be an SOS signal and one photo that had been deliberately deleted. Partial remains found months later were scattered miles from where their distress calls began and the official verdict of accidental death hasn't satisfied everyone. Was it a tragic accident, or did someone find them first?

  • Lemuria the Lost Continent

    In the mid-1800s, a British naturalist named Philip Sclater proposed the existence of a vast sunken continent — Lemuria — to explain a gap in the fossil record. What began as a genuine scientific hypothesis was seized upon by occultists, racists, and spiritual movements, mutating over 150 years into a living religion practiced at the foot of a California volcano. In this episode of Conspiracy Theories, Cults, and Crimes, Vanessa Richardson traces how one man's theory about lemur fossils became the foundation for a conspiracy touching Atlantis, Theosophy, Nazism, and the New Age.
