We're back in the sea this weekend, lizards! In 1884, 4 men set sail on an English yacht named The Mignonette; they planned to travel for 120 days before reaching the coast of Australia, but the men never made it to their destination. Sharks, turnips, sea turtle blood, improvised sails, and cannibalism abound in this case that left its mark on the legal interpretation of maritime tragedies.  Support the show ..read more

Again, we apologize for the delay in updating and posting - we are still playing catchup from a string of technical difficulties which resulted in us having to scrap an episode.  This week, Sam is taking us off our regular path and into the deep sea. On June 18, 2023, 5 men went 12,500 feet below the ocean surface to visit the Titanic wreckage. One hour and 45 minutes into their descent, the submersible lost contact with the research ship waiting above. After four days of searching, parts of the carbon-fiber submersible were discovered near the Titanic wreckage, indicating a catastrophic ..read more

Welcome back, again, friends. We are terribly sorry for going off air again - we have been dealing with some on and off technical issues (in part due to the Canada fires). We are also sorry for the quality of our audio for the time being, we are working on getting it fixed, but did not want to keep anyone waiting any longer. Episodes (and updates) may also be published out of order. This should return to normal in a few weeks. On April 1, 1990, Arizona state trooper Mike Miller came across a semitruck stopped on the side of the highway with its hazard lights on. Miller stopped to offer assista ..read more

Thank you everyone for 500 downloads! We are so happy we get to share our shared interests with you all and we can't wait to see where we get to go from here! When we started this show, our number one goal was to bring light to cases that have been overlooked and left in the dark. So from now on, we'll be dedicating one episode every month to bring you 1-4 smaller cases (each!) that may not be getting the attention they deserve. Case 1: Montgomery County Jane Doe (1998). A man finds a human skull in the woods behind his home in Conroe, Texas. https://www.doenetwork.org/cases/1336uftx.html Case ..read more

Hey gang! Welcome back to the show. This week Sarah is making her big return from hiatus to lead us through the horrifying case of Christopher Duntsch, a surgeon who destroyed nearly every life he touched during his time in the OR.

It's been a while, friends! We are so sorry for the hiatus, but the gang just had to take a step back and handle life for a bit. We're baaack (mostly).
