    Sit down with us as we discuss this horrific case and how a young mother lost her life at the hands of three despicable men and even more shockingly a 14 year old girl. This case shows the true lengths of depravity humans can go to and if you are of a sensitive disposition proceed with caution.

    Trigger Warnings for this case include: Rape, Abuse, brief descriptions of Vomit, Graphic descriptions of torture.

    We also apologise for the amount of uncomfortable laughter during this episode, it was honestly one of the only ways we could make it through the case and we mean no disrespect to the victim or her loved ones.

    Happy Pride Month guys!

    And welcome to the final episode of our Pride Moth Mini Series.

    This month we've been focusing on cases relating to LGBTQ+ folks and choosing to highlight stories that have impacted the history of this resilient community and forced changes to be made. We feel it's important to share their stories and say their names so that they might be remembered not only for the tragedy that befell them but also the people they were and the differences they have made, so we hope you've enjoyed the series and we can't wait to continue covering these cases even outside of June.

    In this episode Em will be covering the relatively forgotten case of the Upstairs Lounge Arson Attack.

    In this case we will be taking you to New Orleans to discuss what went wrong on the night of the 24th of June 52 years ago and how callous angry act ended up in so much death and destruction. Ci and Em will be studying not only the events of that night but also why to this day people still barely speak of it.

    Thanks to everyone who has joined us for this week's tragic case and we hope to see you back next Tuesday as Cian takes us all through something spooky that's a little to close to home.

  • Case #005 - Ghost Ships
    May 27 2025

    Welcome to episode five of Do You Dare?

    IT'S CIAN'S BIRTHDAY EP!

    Today Em will be giving everyone a two for one special when she dives in to not one but two different equally mysterious tales of different Ghost Ships.

    We start this episode by taking a deep dive into the story of the Mary Celeste and her disappearing crew where the pair try to untangle the web of ten different theories as to what might have happened - each one getting more unbelievable as the go.

    Next up Em shares the dark details of the SS Ourang Medan which leaves us all asking the question: Did it even exist at all?

    Spoiler - it did and everything was just Aliens... or was it?

    Thanks to everyone who has set sail with us for this week's nautical mysteries and we hope to see you back next Tuesday as we head in to pride month where you will find out what Cian has planned for his upcoming episode.
