This week, we dive into a very specific sexual paraphilia, often associated with serial murder cases. We lay out the foundational research and see how it has been analyzed in case studies, dating back to the 1700's. We also discuss the London Monster, the Whitechapel Murders, and more recent cases, including whether or not we think piquerism fits with the Idaho 4 case.

Jumping off of our last forensic psych episode on true vs false confessions, we explore how moral panic has infiltrated our country's history from the beginning, and how it rose it's ugly head again in the 80's and 90's. It even lingers today (despite some major research in the right direction) in some legal cases and in politically-fueled phenomena.

It's Dr. Scott's birthday, so why not drop a re-release. This one felt appropriate. 

This week, the docs delve into the sequence of events that precipitated the tragic and disastrous "Zoot Suit" riots in Los Angeles. Despite the Zoot Suit riots receiving far less attention than deserved in the annals of the civil rights struggle in the United States, they represent a pivotal moment in both Los Angeles and national history. The docs investigate how the media exacerbated tensions by demonizing the Latino community, while also shedding light on the pervasive racism and marginalization perpetuated by industry and law enforcement through opinion pieces.

This week we explore the current AND historical animosity that arises between economic classes in times of financial crisis. If there were ever a time for “eat the rich” content to go viral, it’s now. Prices are up, wages are down, and Millennials and Gen Z are working harder than ever—for way less. Despite being the most educated generation, they’re drowning in debt while CEO pay has exploded—now 399 times what the average worker makes. Meanwhile, the middle class is shrinking and billionaires are multiplying like rabbits. So yeah, people are angry—and it’s not hard to see why. Looping in elements from our Attachment Theory AND Affluenza episodes, we'll discuss a few of the incidents currently in the national conversation.

We cover the incidents, and post incident reactions, of the OceanGate disaster and the United healthcare CEO murder.

This week we get to have a discussion with our amazing colleague, co-creator Jason Usry.

Jason  is a multi-time Emmy nominated broadcast media veteran with three movies produced with one in post-production and others currently in development.   He's the editor of some of your favorite podcasts (including this one), he's founder of Ear Cult, LLC - a company he's working to build into a multimedia storytelling empire.  He's an editor, consultant, creator, storyteller, journalist, and most importantly a friend.

We discuss his newest project, Inconceivable: The Story of Temujin Kensu, an investigation into the 1986 murder of Scott Macklem. Kensu was convicted of the crime, but many believe he was wrongfully convicted. Jason discusses his commitment to approaching this case with an open mind, initially assuming Kensu’s innocence before uncovering more complex truths... revelations that are happening in real time.
