    Dec 19 2024

    Last week we told you how over 1,000 people ended up in the Guyanese jungle following the orders of a meth-head with a god complex. Short answer: Nobody knowingly joins a cult.

    This week we’re here to tell you how the arrival of US Congressman Leo Ryan inadvertently set off a chain of events that led to the chaotic end of Jonestown and the tragic loss of nearly 1,000 lives.

  • FROM THE VAULT - Episode 275 - The Assassination of Olof Palme
    Dec 13 2024

    In February 1986, the prime minister of Sweden was walking home from the cinema, when a man stepped out of a shop doorway and shot him in the neck with a .357 Magnum. The killer ran down a side street – and disappeared without a trace.

    The mystery surrounding Olof Palme’s death is a Swedish national obsession that's barely left the headlines in the decades since. Hundreds of theories, from international hitmen to lone gunmen and police conspiracies, have swirled around one of the most extensive murder investigations in history.

    And then, in 2020, investigators called a press conference – to announce that they had finally found the killer…

  • Episode 379 - Jim Jones Part 1: The Journey to Jonestown
    Dec 12 2024

    On the 18th of November 1978, 909 men, women, and children were killed by chemical-laced Flav-Or-Aid in the Guyanese jungle, all at the will of one man - Jim Jones. It was the largest loss of American lives since the Second World War. That’s what everyone remembers.

    But despite the notorious “Jonestown Massacre” being forever etched into the public consciousness, few people know how almost 1000 people ended up living in the jungle, thinking they were fighting the Capitalist machine, whilst starving half to death, and following the words of a meth-addled maniac.

    This is the first part of their story.

Great story telling

95% of the time I really enjoy this podcast. I've listened to almost every episode over the past few years. The stories are accurate and clearly narrated, if not a little formulaic. My only gripe is that 5% of the time when either of the hosts actually come off as arrogant/insufferable when trying to be funny about something, where they're not very informed.

Fantastic

I first found these ladies by chance. I was looking for a true crime podcast that wasn’t droll or borderline insulting to the victims. They are informative entertaining and although this is not their full time job they are very active on social media with their listeners. Continuing the discussion after the podcast has ended. They remind me of my sister and I discussing these cases but save us the time of researching. I don’t know if they will see this but thank you for all the effort you put into this podcast.

Best true crime EVER

In my 30 adult years of true crime obsession, this is my favorite of any show/podcast. The witty banter and sarcastic skepticism is pure gold.
So many shows are dumbed down and/or over explained, so every simple mind can easily follow along. But these hosts are intelligent with an above average (it would seem based on other shows) ability to reason. They each write sections for the other to read, so legitimate, interesting, questions come up and are explained. They look up and read facts that you actually want to know or find interesting even if you already know the basics of. They give you links/sources of you need or want additional information. But don't waste your time explaining things every true crime fan has heard a million times.
The best is the regular comedic breaks from the macabre. Sarcastic responses to statements from media, law enforcement, suspects, etc. Hilariously unexpected language in an English accent is just a bonus.
They were several years in by the time I discovered them, and I listened to nothing else until completely caught up.

duh....

If you are cooking, your hands might be greasy or messy and that would be all the more reason to "ask a clock" the time... I do it almost everyday. I don't have to look elsewhere or diety my phone. Makes sense, no? I don't really care or know who done it just because I'm probably not I formed enough, but ,girls do you not cook? lol.. I guess not often .... I had to write this , it was making me crazy 🤪
