  • Introducing: The Devil You Know with Sarah Marshall
    Oct 28 2025

    In the 1980s and 90s, Satan and his followers were accused of brainwashing children, sacrificing babies, and infiltrating North American society on a massive scale — yet these thousands of alleged Satanists were nowhere to be found. Even so, the narrative became embedded in our cultural memory, warping everything it touched — including the lives of innocent people… And it never quite died out.


    In a new 8-part series, Sarah Marshall (You’re Wrong About) explores the tangled web of the Satanic Panic, in a journey that will take you everywhere from Victoria, B.C. to rural Kentucky to San Antonio, Texas. This is a show about the people who experienced the Satanic Panic in real-time — the believers, the skeptics, the bystanders, and the wrongfully-convicted. What was it like to be a psychologist told to look for Satanists in every case; a mother slowly recovering memories of supposed Satanic abuse; a teenager accused of conspiracy to murder? The stories of these eyewitnesses point us toward the real underlying problems — individual and societal — that the Panic was a response to. The fault, as ever, was not with Satanists, but in ourselves.

  • Introducing | The Turning: River Road
    Oct 20 2025

    From Rococo Punch and iHeartPodcasts comes The Turning: River Road — a jaw-dropping true story about faith, control, and the power to break free.


    At just 13, Lindsay Tornambe was chosen by the leader of her family’s cult for a “special role,” becoming one of the youngest Maidens of the River Road Fellowship in rural Minnesota. After a ritual that bound her and other girls to the cult’s leader, Lindsay spent more than a decade trapped in isolation and abuse — hidden from the world.


    But one day, she and a friend made a daring escape that sparked an international manhunt and brought the entire cult crashing down.


    The Turning: River Road is a powerful story of survival, courage, and reclaiming freedom.
