This week, we’re celebrating back-to-school season by looking at some of the most horrible crimes to befall the world of academia. Featuring an engineering professor with a petty ax to grind, an asshole professor who preyed on his female students, and the brutal murder of two celebrated professors. Especially if you are a teacher or student returning to school yourself, these cases will remind you of the horrific crimes that have haunted the hallowed halls of your university campus. Steer clear of such murderous peers or professors, so that you can stay far off this list!

Cases Covered:
1. Thomas Meixner
2. Half and Susanne Zantop

As a way of welcoming everyone back to school, we decided to offer even more stories of murder and mayhem on campuses the world over (though mainly in America, because guns). We have cases with professor on professor crime, professor on student, and a few random acts of violence, all of which accumulate into a horrific set of stories. So tune in and maybe rethink your academic life - we hear trade schools are very popular!

This week, we’re venturing into the realm of the silly, with horrific murders that have taken place in cities and on streets with dumb or ironic names! Don’t let the lighthearted names of these locales fool you - these cases are just as gruesome and frustrating as those we usually cover. Featuring a cursed Appalachian town, a brutal family massacre, and two mysterious unsolved cases. Stay safe out there, twisted listeners, and be wary of silly-named places - you never know what secrets they may be hiding!

This week, Twisted Listers, we're looking at horrible murders that took place in locations with very ironic and unfortunate names. From Booger Hole to Bumble Bee Road, we look at terrible things that took place in locations whose name would have you thinking of anything BUT murder. Sometimes it's important to look at the irony in life, and it's also important to highlight unsolved cases (we have at least two this week)! So even when we're choosing topics in jest, we're still doing out best to shine a light on horrible tales that desperately need to be solved - and soon!


Cases Covered:
1.The Easey Street murders
2. Bumblebee Road Murders

This week, we’re back from our summer vacations with the “explosive” (sorry) topic of bombers! These disturbing killers planted bombs for wild reasons, ranging from the personal to the political. Featuring two evil killers who couldn’t let go of their exes, the deadly exploits of a certain “Uncle Ted,” and a trash bag of a terrorist who was allowed to get away from justice for way too long. As you close out your summers, we hope no more dweebs such as these light off such deadly fireworks anywhere near you!


Cases Covered:
1. Stephen William Beal
2. The Unabomber himself, Ted Kaczynski

We're back from our respective vacations, Twisted Listeners, and we are coming back with bang (pun intended)! That's right - we're covering a very Diva topic - bombers!

Cindy and Diva each took on a 'personal' bombing case, as well as one famous/infamous/I hate the government type case, so there's a little something for everybody. From uncle Ted to an Arizona socialite, we've got a little something for everyone, so tune in and check out this crazy topic. We're glad to be back!


Cases Covered:

1. Pamela Phillips and Gary Triano
2. 2. Eric Rudolph, the "Olympic Park Bomber"

This week, we turn to the sobering and disturbing topic of hate crimes. Whether a gas station owner planting flowers in Arizona, a young man celebrating his bachelor party in Michigan, or a devoted father just looking for a ride home in Texas, it feels like hate-filled monsters can enact barbaric violence on innocent people at any time. Because white supremacy and homophobia run rampant in this country, and these types of horrific violent crimes are still all too prevalent, it’s all the more important to keep talking about these victims and their stories.


Cases Covered:
1. James Byrd Jr.
2. Vincent Chin

That's right, Twisted Listeners - we finally did it. We are covering horrific hates crimes perpetrated by the worst type of humans in the world - those with prejudice based hate in their hearts. From disgusting racists to hateful homophobes, we cover a little bit of everything, and we even re-examine a very famous case and find that things aren't always as they seem (or are they?) These cases will blow your mind, and make you wonder how our society got so sick as to have these types of crimes on such a consistent basis. So join us as we examine stories that sadly fall under this very taboo subject, and get ready to hear us rage at the injustice of the senseless murders of these poor victims.

We continue this week's twisted tales of bodies buried in backyards with two more tales of murder, lies, and poorly buried bodies. This week's sub theme could be Florida; it could also be 'trust no one' as both of these cases are murders carried out by those nearest and dearest to the departed. Our first case is a tale of a double crosser being double crossed, while our second has a long list of viable suspects, along with its fair share of twists and turns.

So tune in and enjoy! And as always and forever - stay off our lists!

This week, we're covering cases that definitely hit close to home (sorry, bad pun): people buried in backyards! Some of these cases are people buried in their own backyards, while others are the backyards of their killers, and sometimes, even those of strangers unwillingly thrown into the horrific mix of murder and mystery.

These cases range quite a bit in terms of victims and murderers, which Cindy always loves, but they all end up in the same place: someone's backyard. We have a case of a college girl gone missing, two missing mothers, and more!
