  • Mastermind: To Think Like A Killer (from Patreon)
    Dec 24 2024
    LET THE WOMEN DO THE WORK! This three part series tells the incredible untold story, of Dr. Anne Burgess who helped pioneer the FBI's criminal profiling unit. Dr. Burgess’s focus was on understanding the minds of some of the world’s most notorious killers in order to better help victims.

    Over the course of her career, she worked on some of the world’s most high profile cases including Ted Bundy, Ed Kemper, and she sat face to face with the Menendez brothers to try to understand why they killed their parents. And she did all this while still maintaining her work as a nurse and advocate for survivors of sexual assault, and while also prioritizing her family–her husband and 4 kids.

  • 407: Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara
    Dec 17 2024
    The year was 2008. The indie pop band Tegan and Sara, made up of two queer twin sisters, were on the verge of music superstardom. The internet, a relatively new way for fans to find each other and connect, was helping to propel a rabid community around Tegan and Sarah and their music. But suddenly, things got dark. Tegan was the victim of an elaborate identity theft that upended her entire life, and a catfishing scheme that threatened to destroy everything everything they had worked for. In this documentary, Tegan and Sara are going public with their story--and their quest to find answers--for the first time.
