Part 2 of this horrific topic is now available! Cindy takes on a domestic case, while Diva puts a video game twist on an all too familiar topic of kids killing kids! Of all the dumb reasons to kill someone, being angry over a video game has got to be at the top of the list, and these cases are no exception. You will marvel at the senselessness of these crimes, and the lives lost for absolutely no reason makes you wonder why on earth video games are so popular (even though we do love them, we cannot lie!) So tune in an be amazed at the bleak outcome of these very stupid and disappointing stories.

Cases Covered:
1. Rory Teasley
2. Kim Proctor

In all our time as podcasters, I don't think we've ever covered a topic inspired by something quite so stupid as video games. We've even gone as far as covering crimes committed for really stupid reasons, and this goes beyond even those stories of idiocy. To end someone's life over a video game is to show a severe lack of respect for human life, and also, it's just really kind of pathetic, to be honest!

This week, Diva takes a different tack and covers multiple stories of crime inspired by GTA, the most violent video game of its time, while Cindy stays a bit more literal and covers a story of murder of not a particular game, but over an entire console.

So tune in and shake your head in disbelief along with us, Twisted Listeners, as we delve into one of the most pathetic, ridiculous topics to date!


Cases Covered:
1. GTA Inspired Crimes
2. The X Box Murders

Part two of this horrifying topic is coming at you with two more terrible cases of murderous men terrorizing victims unfortunate enough to be on or near freeways at the exact wrong time. This half covers two horrible serial killers; one has been caught, while the other remains at large to this day. Both of these killers prey on young women and girls, and both have a very sadistic streak. These stories will make you think twice about trusting literally anyone, and hopefully will help keep you far off of any of our lists, but this one especially!


Cases Covered:
1.The Freeway Phantom
2.Roger Kibbe, the I 5 Strangler

In somewhat keeping with recent lists, we are now broaching the horrible subject of freeway killers - people who used freeways in one way or another as part of their murder plan. These cases typically have pretty high body counts, sadly, as these people tend to be nomadic murderers who take a while to get caught. We have a man on a spree who is able to continue killing thanks to cops with tunnel vision, another man who is free to kill more thanks to the justice system, and a whole lot of other ridiculous stuff that will make your head explode with anger! Doesn't that sound so fun? So join us as we tell the terrible tales of these piece of trash and their very undeserving victims.



Cases Covered:
1.Adam Leroy Lane "The Highway Killer"
2. Larry Eyler "The Freeway Killer"

We're back with part 2 of a topic that has angered us to our very core - Self Defense Murders! It's honestly wild how many of these are super NOT self defense, and the overuse of that as a means of getting away with murder clearly harms those who truly did make the horrific decision to kill someone to protect themselves. These cases highlight the ways in which our justice system is extremely flawed, biased, and often, just plain wrong. That being said, in at least one of these cases, the jury got it right, and the satisfaction we get from that, dear listeners, is truly Chef's Kiss.

This week, dear listeners, we tackle a very divisive and difficult subject: people who murdered someone in self defense (or at least claimed they did). What makes this topic especially problematic is how many people claim self defense when in reality they are cold blooded murderers, and not only that, but how many people truly kill in self defense and end up in prison anyway (sometimes for life!) And, in true Twisted Listers fashion, both Diva and Cindy were sure to choose cases that will absolutely enrage your sense of justice, fairness, and make you question the world we live in. Because really, that's what we do best! So tune in and get ready to rage with us, and for so many reasons, be so super sure to stay off of this list on both sides!


Cases Covered:
1. Nicole Addimando

We're back with another episode detailing some of America's most prolific murderers, and this one is a doozy! Both cases have high body counts, similar victim profiles, and luckily, murderers who did, eventually, get caught! One of these cases is a bit lesser known, but the other is such a doozy Cindy had to take an extra day to finish her research so she could bring you the best condensed version possible! We don't often take on these larger cases, but when we do, we go hard - much like these horrible murderers, but in a much more palatable way.

So tune in and enjoy, and remember: Stay Off Our Lists!


Cases Covered:

1. William Suff
2. 2. Gary Ridgway, The Green River Killer

Happy Birthday America! What better way to celebrate than with a very American topic - murderers with the highest body counts! This extremely twisted list may be even more appropriate for this week's holiday than people who actually died on the 4th of July, mostly because it embodies what it truly means to be American - to fear for your life on a daily basis due to our messed up society and terrible police force!

These tales are our best take on the worst killers in American history, and include a look into their early lives, as many of their crimes as we could fit into our stories, and of course, what happened to these terrible humans (including a last meal or two).

Enjoy your holiday, stay safe, and remember: America is the only industrialized country with this many serial killers who are also this prolific. Happy Birthday, America!

Hey hey Twisted Listeners! Can you all believe it's already the middle of 2023? Time truly flies, and summer is finally, really here! When you think of the 4th of July, you think of many things - fireworks, bbq, swimming, fun with friends and family. What you probably don't think about is people being murdered, unless of course, you're a true crime fanatic like us! And if you are, then you'll want to tune in for this episode, as it's the second half of our top cases of people who killed, or were killed, on the 4th of July. We have a tale of revenge and rehabilitation, and another bleak story that will make you super mad! Just how we like it. So tune in and enjoy, and this coming week especially - Stay off Our Lists!

Happy 4th of July, Twisted Listeners! We know we're about a week early, but we just couldn't wait to celebrate this truly... specific, holiday. And we thought, what better way to celebrate than by covering cases of people murdered on the 4th of July? These cases are all pretty wild, and run the gamut - mass murders, murder sprees, revenge murders - we've got it all! And each one happens on this holiday, which we felt was more than appropriate because really, what says America more than gun violence?

Cases Covered:
1. The Highland Park Parade Shooting
