Join us as we discuss the unusual and creepy story of The Denver Spider Man! Part down-on-his-luck, sympathetic man just looking for a little help, part "I'm going to murder you and then live in your attic", Theodore Edward Coneys hit a bit of a rough patch which would ultimately lead him to make a decision out of his own desperation. Learn about how this scenario is literally one of Amanda's greatest fears as a homeowner and how Theodore was able to make a little nest of sorts for himself in his victim's attic. Did I mention how he got the nickname The Spider Man yet? I didn't? Well, you'll just have to listen to the episode if you want to learn more.

Join us as we discuss a lesser known cult that had some unique cooking methods: The Blackburn Cult! This cult was founded and led by a woman, which is unusual compared to the cults we usually discuss. Queen May and her daughter would go on to not only swindle their followers out of money, but they would also engage in some very questionable and, dare I say, illegal activities in the name of serving God and finishing some book that no one was going to read anyway. Learn about the unfortunate oven incident that did not in fact cure one of their more vulnerable cult members and about the forlorn parents who made a poor decision in the hopes of resurrecting their daughter. Did I mention the nightly naked ampitheatre sacrifices yet? I didn't? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out more.

Part loving mother and wife who just wanted the perfect man, part homicidal school girl with a laugh to match, Nannie didn't fare well in the romance department. Learn about how she quickly grew tired of not only playing the doting wife, but also of being a mother to her own children. Did I mention the hat pins yet and romance novels yet? I didn't? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out more.

Join us for Part Two of the Guatemala Syphilis Experiments! Learn even more about how the US Government orchestrated a series of experiments that would humiliate, exploit, expose, and infect vulnerable individuals with various STDs in the late 1940s. We are finally up to the Intentional Exposure experiments phase of the study, and believe me, it's about to get much more intense than the initial phases. Did I mention the penile abrasions and cisternal punctures yet? I didn't? Well, be sure to listen closely as I describe these methods in extensive and excruciating detail.

Join us as we cover Part One of a two-part episode on the Guatemala Syphilis Experiments! Learn about how the US Government orchestrated a series of experiments that would humiliate, exploit, expose, and infect vulnerable individuals with various STDs in the late 1940s. While it initially took place on US soil involving Indiana prisoners, we quickly moved the study overseas where we could continue to perform these tests outside of the prying eyes of our citizens or human services committees. Did I mention how awful this is yet? I sorta did? Well, buckle up friends because this is only Part One! And things get much, much worse in Part Two!

Join us as we discuss the Father of Gynecology: James Marion Sims! Part poorly trained physician who didn't believe in anesthesia, part racist misogynist who appears to have simply enjoyed torturing enslaved Black women during the 1800s, Sims is not somebody who deserves all the honor and admiration that history has afforded him. Learn about the barbaric practices he employed to "treat" women suffering from debilitating and painful conditions and why we might want to stop awarding Terrible People even if their Terrible deeds accomplished some breakthrough in science or medicine. Did I mention the bent pewter spoon yet? I didn't? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out more.

Part sturdy woman looking for a faithful husband, part gold-digging murderer known to lose her head, Big Bad Belle lured unsuspecting men to their deaths by placing love letters in the matrimonial ads of newspapers. It appears she was searching for a well endowed husband (if by well-endowed, you mean wealthy) but just kept misplacing them in the middle of the night. Did I mention that she was also a bit of a firebug? I didn't? Well, you'll just have to listen to the episode to learn more.

Join us as we discuss the conspiracy theory that dared to sully the reputation of Amanda's favorite food: Pizzagate! Part unfounded claims about child trafficking out of pizza restaurants, part rhetoric claiming that democrats are Satanic and evil pedophiles, Pizzagate had a gestational period of about 24 hours before it was birthed and delivered to the social media masses.

Join us as we discuss the Colorado Cannibal: Mr. Alferd Packer!

Learn about the tragic events that unfolded on Christmas day back in 1929 in Stokes County, NC and about Charlie Lawson's bizarre behaviors leading up to the murders.
