Hello and welcome back! Surprise again! We wanted to throw another extra episode your way this week to accompany you on your holiday journeys! In today’s story, Hailey tells Kevin all about the monstrous loser that is American serial killer Ed Kemper. What else can we really say about this episode? From beginning to end, this is a sick and twisted story of a man who could’ve been much more than he turned out to be. And more importantly, it’s the story of 10 lives that were taken way too soon. Hold on tight, friends. This one’s a doozy. 

CONTENT WARNING: This episode is extremely upsetting. It contains discussions surrounding vile acts of sexual violence, graphic depictions of brutal murder, defilement of corpses, child abuse, etc. Listener discretion is highly recommended.

Hello and welcome back! In this episode, Kevin fights an extreme thirst, Hailey reminisces about a meme-factory event, and the pair put their thinking caps on to try and figure out what happened to Kenny Veach. In November of 2014, 47-year-old outdoor enthusiast and YouTuber Kenny Veach embarked into the Mojave Desert in hopes of locating a mysterious cave near Area 51. When Kenny didn’t return home, he was reported missing. The investigation, which remains ongoing today, turned up nothing besides a slew of theories. Did Kenny get swept up in a top secret military initiative? Did he get lost or injured in one of the many mines or caves in the Mojave? Is there a chance that he’s still alive and well? Join us as we work through these questions, but strap in, because this one’s a doozy!
