  Africa is home to an incredibly vast array of different species of plant and animal. Some of the most dangerous animals in the world live on the 5-thousand-mile-long continent, but this threat was of little concern to Kristen Yaldor and her husband whom planned a trip to explore their passion for wildlife photography and to bring home some new memories. Nobody could have anticipated the kind of memory they'd be returning with would be one of survival and courage when an upset Hippopotamus got too close.
  Listen alongside Dayvid and Amanda as they are joined by none other than the survivor herself, wildlife photographer Kristen Yaldor. Kristen takes us along for an in-depth and personal recounting of her fight for her life against one of Africa's largest and most deadly animals: The Hippopotamus.

When you envision paradise, you probably think of swaying palm trees, a soft and pleasant breeze, ocean waves lapping at the shore. You probably don't envision poverty, food rationing, and stress. But for Fiji native Samuela Cirivakayawa, this is exactly what paradise meant to him. Among his existing stresses, a low teacher's income, marital problems, and the loss of his father drove him to the edge in search of happiness, and one day Samuela had enough and decided to start over in Australia in search of a new and better life.

 Follow along with your hosts Amanda, Rachel and Dayvid as we take AJ of Ghost Vexers Paranormal along for the ride as we learn how Samuela's search for happiness ultimately led to his early demise in a freak accident of morbid proportions. In trade for this grueling tale, AJ shares with us some of his most haunting experiences in investigating the paranormal at famously-haunted locations such as Mackay Mansion and more. Between the stories and the fatality, your hair is sure to be raised by the end of this episode!

 We discuss graphic details of a fatality as well as paranormal experiences in this episode. Foul language inappropriate for persons under 18 years of age included, listener discretion is advised.

  When you think of a typical July Saturday, you might think of warm breezes and blooming flowers, family days and fun. This is exactly what the Zhao/Liu family was picturing when they decided to get out for a fun day with the family at one of the countries' most well-known tourism spots.

  Sadly what they got was ANYTHING but typical when Li made the mistake of stepping out of the safe confines of her vehicle and into the wild terrain of 10 Amur Tigers that called the area home. From one bad choice to another, follow along as your host Amanda brings Dayvid (Down The Rabbit Hole and Scott (Beyond The Shadows) down the path of most resistance with this chilling episode that includes actual video evidence (available on our social media pages and on our Carnage Club Discord channel accessible only to top-tier Patreon members).

  It's hard to navigate this world without the guidance and example of a parent. From learning to walk to learning to drive, parents are supposed to provide for you, nourish you and help you grow into an independent, successful adult.

  For Sylvia and Jenny Likens, this was not their reality. Growing up in a home with an inconsistent parental presence, they learned to adapt quickly by themselves in order to survive. But no amount of life experience would prepare them for what lay in store.

  Join your hosts Amanda and Dayvid as we welcome Tyler from Men of Misfortune Podcast into the twisted story of Gertrude Baniszewski and the torture and horrors she inflicted onto the Likens girls. From hysterical re-imaginings of Gertie as a human-cigarette, to allegations of government conspiracy, you will want some tissues within arms-reach for the most sadistic and graphic story we've told yet.

  This episode contains extremely triggering content and includes authentic audio and descriptions regarding child abuse, sexual abuse and neglect, references to drug and alcohol use, as well as foul language. Listener discretion and parental discretion is highly advised.

  Imagine your child walks out your front door to go to school and you never see them again. Would you ever stop looking? What lengths would you go to, to find them?

 This such story focuses on this very scenario when a 14 year old boy heads off to school and vanishes into thin air. Join your host Amanda, and for the first time ever, BOTH Rachel and Dayvid (Down The Rabbit Hole) as we take you day by day through the timeline of the days that followed the disappearance of Harley Dilly. But it isn't all heartbreaking; Rachel shares her 20's dating advice with Dayvid and talks us through how to start a "roster" for "cuffing season". As usual, tears will be flowing, both from laughter and sadness as we navigate this horrific episode.

  LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED - This episode contains triggering content relating to the disappearance and death of a child and includes adult themes and language not appropriate for persons under 18 years of age.

   Zoos are a fascinating concept. They utilize panes of plexi-glass and steel bars to separate nature's perfect killers from us defenseless humans so we can peer into their eyes and experience what a moment in their presence feels like - within the safety measures provided, of course.
    One typical day, a sweet mother was taking her young son and only child to the Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium for an educational class, and decided to walk him around the zoo afterwards to see the different animals. With large glasses that helped 2-year old Maddox Derkosh to compensate for the poor vision he was born with, he eagerly peered through the windows and over the railings at the different exhibits. There was just one exhibit, featuring a pack of 11 African Painted Dogs, of which he couldn't see the animals well enough. His doting mother had an innocent idea of lifting him up onto the railing for a better view, but nobody could have saw what was coming when sweet little Derkosh and his large Harry-Potter-style glasses fell forward out of her arms and 14 feet into the exhibit below.

  Join your host Amanda and our very special guests Nisha and Buda BadA$$, hosts of The Hot Garbage Show - True Crime Edition Podcast as we get wild and weird with this insane account of how a poor, innocent young boy met his fate at the hands of African predators in a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania zoo. Accompany us for one long emotional rollercoaster ride as we bring you from tears of laughter to tears of heartbreak, and back again several times throughout this gripping and hysterical collaboration.

  **This episode contains very triggering content including autopsy details regarding the fatality of a child. Listener discretion and parental guidance is advised.**

    Time is a magical concept. With it, all things change. Even things that were once new and beautiful, with time will rot and decay like everything else.
  This applies to machinery as well, and with the rapid advancement of technology, every year of outdated equipment seems to have an effect of much larger magnitude. Safety provisions across all industries have evolved and enhanced throughout time.
  The risks of Saturation Diving however, have not changed much over the years. To this day it remains one of the most dangerous professions within mankind, and people who are able to withstand the hardships of this incredibly taxing line of work are compensated well, and do so expecting to end each journey by seeing their family again.
  Sadly for five workers one November day in 1983, this was not the case, as outdated equipment and a lack of updated safety precautions caused the brutal and horrific death of almost an entire crew, not one by one but all at once, and all due to a simple human error that was so avoidable and preventable.
  With the inclusion of the authentic autopsy report from the 1980's and medical journal entries full of rather... graphic descriptions, this episode is NOT for the faint of heart.

  Joining us for this episode is one of our regular rotating co-hosts Dayvid, of Down The Rabbit Hole social media entertainment and Deeper Down apparel. Listen in as Dayvid shares his insight into this story told by your host Amanda, which delves into the gruesome details surrounding his horrific tragedy that shocked the industry.

  Listener discretion is advised for adult themes and language and graphic descriptions within the discussed medical documents. Parental guidance under 18 strongly suggested.

* Featured at the beginning of our episode is a short trailer for Beyond The Shadows Podcast, some good friends of ours with a great show! Check them out for a good time!
