• 406 - Nickelodeon's Dan Schneider: Witch Hunt Victim or Predator?
    Jun 10 2024

    On March 17th, 2024, the first episode of a five-part docuseries, Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV aired on Investigation Discovery and MAX, accusing Dan Schneider of fostering a hostile work environment and overly sexualizing young cast members while he was in charge of several hit kid's shows. The series also insinuates that Dan may be a sexual predator. Is he? Or is the docuseries a hatchet job that unfairly has unfairly demonized someone? What IS the truth about young actors working in Hollywood?

  • 401 - Kenneth McDuff: The Broomstick Killer
    May 13 2024

    Kenneth McDuff killed three high school students the night of August 6th, 1966, repeatedly raping and sexually torturing one of them first. He'd be sent to death row for those crimes. But then, he'd have his sentence reduced to life in prison. And then, he'd get released on parole at the age of 43 and start killing again within 72 hours of leaving prison. Find out what legal changes made his release possible, and how his case drastically changed Texas's criminal justice system once he was caught and put back on death row. Enjoy and Hail Nimrod!

  • Short Suck #9 - The US Human Body Trade
    May 10 2024

    What happens to your body when it is donated to science? Does it actually end up in front of some doctor or medical student? Not necessarily. Sometimes it ends up being sold by nefarious body brokers to be used for explosive detonation testing or to add to the collection of some weirdo who just likes dead bodies. What happens to corpses in the US is not nearly as regulated as you probably think.
