Secret Story Time Bonus Episode: The Toy Box Killer

If you’re not already familiar with The Toybox Killer case, you’re about to be….and head’s up that it’s from the deepest, darkest, stankest part of history’s colon. You may need a fresh baptism afterwards just from listening.If you’ve ever wondered why there’s such a loud movement to shut down social media accounts teaching misogyny, and backlash to violent pornography, this story is a great example. It’s also further argument AGAINST smacking kids around, and/or letting them be exposed to vi...

Secret Story Time Bonus Episode: The Saga of GOLDUST: How The WWE Turned Homophobia Into Dollar Signs

This episode was written as an epic Pride Season gift to our beloved Patreon subscribers, but given recent Supreme Court rulings and the fresh wave of anti-LGBTQ+ mouth diarrhea that SCOTUS fuckery spawned, it seemed an important story to release into the wild. Because while it might sound like a joke, few things are more epic, gayer, AND more prescient in these polarized times than the largely forgotten sliver of wildly queer pro wrestling history called “The Goldust Era,” which officia...

"Wild Wilderness Survival"

We may ALL be struggling to survive the surrealist nightmare which is “post-Pandemic” 2023, but there’s still stuff to be grateful for. Not dying slowly of scurvy in the frozen Arctic, or roasting like a pair of hot nuts under a relentless Sahara sun, for starters. We’re also collectively blessed with an uncanny ability to adapt, overcome, and experience “Post Traumatic Growth,” which you gotta admit doesn’t suck. This month Teams Edward & Kimberly kick off summer—and seasonal travel...

Human F*ckery

Full disclosure: When Edward proposed this interview back in March, Kimberly’s immediate response was “Why the fuck would we talk to Joe Exotic?” (She’s a delicate flower like that.) And it’s a fair question. While Tiger King was a savagely addictive and jaw-dropping series, it was also rife with animal abuse, unchecked misogyny, predatory sexual behavior, and Adults Behaving Like Children—all things neither of our hosts are fans of.As our resident philosopher, Edward quickly pointed out how ...

"Thomas Kinkade: The Painter of Light"

He was hailed as “The Painter of Light,” a titan of pastoral landscapes which glowed whimsically from the windows of malls and Disney stores across America in the 1990s. But inside Thomas Kinkade, the famed born-again Christian artist behind one of the most commercially successful art entities ever created, lurked a darkness even he couldn’t cover with layers of shining lacquer. His tragic story of worker exploitation, belligerent self-destruction, and nostalgia gone awry was carefully hidden...

"Guys & Dolls: He Made It Weird"

We’re all capable of royally screwing up a romance, but some guys are so good at it we still talk about them 100 years after their relationships tank. In this month’s battle of storytelling, Team Edward flies into Key West, Florida, to unearth the story of Carl Tanzer and his extremely unhinged relationship with a beautiful, dead Cuban tuberculosis patient half his age. Team Kimberly punches back with the mad entanglement of painter Oskar Kokoschka and his legendary muse, curvacious composer ...

"Medical F*ckery"

Terrible things happen when we put professions on pedestals. Over the last two centuries, “Medicine” has improved so significantly the human lifespan increased dramatically. Unfortunately, medical science and medical ETHICS are two different things—and they aren’t always practiced together, even today. This episode dives into two of the most horrific cases of human experimentation and iatrogenic injury perpetrated in the 20th century. Team Kimberly fondles the questionable choices Dr. Leo Sta...

Secret Story Time Bonus Episode - "Santa is Dead": The Story of Paul Schäfer - Nazi, Child Rapist, and Christian Cult Leader

Ho, Ho, Holy shit.It takes a special kind of dick hole to be jealous of a kid's affection for Santa Claus. But when you take into consideration that Paul Schäfer was a Nazi, pedophile, and notorious cult leader, his disdain for jolly old St. Nick starts to make a bit more sense. After all, how could he afford to make space for the children of his commune to love and celebrate anyone more than him? To secure their affection, it was all too appropriate for Paul to shit in the eggnog and bless t...

It’s that time of year again folks! The veil is thinning, and the rate of spooky fuckery is on the rise.

But this year, the hosts were left with a lot more space to explore Satan's grundle. The assignment: "scare me." Team Kimberly brings us the story of a terrifying exorcism that trumps the movie it inspired, and Team Edward shares the story of 'Cropsey',...

"Alien Encounters"

Thirty years ago, alien talk was mostly restricted to trashy daytime talk shows or weird sitcom fodder. (RE: “ALF?”) But with the very recent declassification of hundreds of pages of United States military case files on UFOs, plus an ever-expanding Internet cache of compelling videos and eyewitness reports, alien encounters are no longer taboo…and seem less sci-fi than ever before. Award-winning “Somewhere in the Skies” author and podcaster Ryan Sprague, a UFO researcher tapped for shows like...

"Traumatic Treachery"

Pontius Pilate may have been the one who condemned Jesus of Nazareth to death, but the name reviled most today is “Judas.” And that’s because treacherous backstabbers—men like Ephialtes of Trachis and Benedict Arnold—who betray friends, lovers, or countrymen for personal gain are so shameful we put them on display forever, a collective reminder of who NOT to be. Dark history nerds will especially love this month’s special guest judge: “History on Fire” host & historian Daniele Bolelli, dr...

Secret Story Time Preview: "Christ-loving Conmen and Bedazzled Designer Denim: The Alamo Ministries Cult, Part 2"

So what happens when two broke Jews-turned-Christian-Evangelicals fall in love, then decide to grift a bunch of poor people out of money using The Bible as leverage? SPOILER ALERT: It’s…uh, yeah, it’s not great. It involves a lot of gaslighting, hypocrisy, some sexual assault, and a prodigious amount of abuse. But in the case of The Alamos, it also involves gay demons, alien angels, laser beams, and piles of karma, so the story is as entertaining as it is infuriating.If you’ve not already lis...

"Kids Who Kill"

A young body found dead, without a single mark or sign of struggle on it. Strangled animals appearing mysteriously in yards. Playtimes that turn from harmless to violent in the blink of an eye. Nature lays the foundation. But nurturing—or worse, lack of it—builds the rest of the person. And when children are denied affection, stability, consistency, love, and care, psychopathy can assemble itself…with devastating results. Team Kimberly and Team Edward yank open the history bo...
