Description: Previously made infamous by the docuseries Dead North, this episode covers the twisted and disturbing case of Chris Regan. Chris disappeared in 2014 from a small secluded town in the thick forests of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Throughout this episode, we follow the lead detective from Iron River PD, Chief Laura Frizzo, as she untangles the web of obstacles and evidence to find Chris Regan. Since this case has already been solved, we will introduce and discuss the many theories that were once believed until justice was eventually served. "A Killer Barbecue" will have listeners on the edge of their seats, especially when a seemingly friendly neighbor cook-out takes a potentially devastating turn.

Description: The infamous Zodiac Killer was a serial killer in the Bay Area in the late 1960s who claimed to "like killing people because it's so much fun." There are five confirmed victims, but the killer claimed to have killed 37, and some say it may have been even more. The case has never been solved despite the many arguments made and evidence found against more than one suspect. This episode focuses on the evidence against the police's only named suspect, Arthur Leigh Allen. Since the case is unsolved, victims and their families have never gotten justice, and a killer walked free.

Description: In this episode, I will discuss the infamous Alaskan serial killer Robert Hansen, also known as “The Butcher Baker”. This case is filled with fraud, stealing, abductions, murder, and arson. With over 30 victims, some are still unknown and unidentified, which is why I picked this case. Advances in DNA and genealogy make this case still relevant today, and some of the victims have recently been identified even though these disappearances took place from 1972-1984.

Description:

On November 18, 1978, a mass suicide at Jonestown changed nearly one thousand lives. Peoples Temple leader Jim Jones led over 900 members in a mass suicide through the consumption of cyanide-laced punch. We take a deep dive into the Peoples Temple timeline, and the years leading up to the mass suicide. Through the exploration of Jim Jones’ leadership and members' experiences we discover the true conditions of the Peoples Temple. Additionally, we dissect the media’s approach to the coverage of Jonestown from an ethical standpoint.

Description: In this episode, we will be discussing the 2001 Anthrax Attacks. The attacks were less than a week after the terrorist attack on 9/11, instilling more fear in Americans. Over 10,000 people were affected by the powder sent with letters containing threats to America. After ten long years of working on this case, the case remains relatively inconclusive, with their only prime suspect taking his life before they could indict him. Join us as we discuss in further detail the specifics of the attacks and investigation into these mysterious letters.
