About this listen

Criminal psychology meets the dark corners of true crime and horror cinema with a sense of humor. Hosted by Shannon and Cathy, we dive deep into the twisted minds of serial killers, uncover the mysteries behind true crime documentaries, and explore the artistry of horror films and their creators. From ridiculous crimes and unhinged criminals to female and male psychopaths and narcissists, no topic is off-limits. With our dark sense of humor and a conversational approach, we aim to entertain first and educate second—because sometimes the truth is scarier (and funnier) than fiction.Shannon Calder | Catherine Barrett True Crime

  • What the Hell? - ChatGPT Cheating Scandals & Teletubby Break-Ins: The Weirdest Crimes Yet!
    Jul 10 2025

    Welcome to another What the Hell? edition of Terror Talk Podcast, where things get weird, wacky, and totally unhinged.

    In this episode, Shannon and Cathy dive into some of the most ridiculous and jaw-dropping true crime headlines we’ve seen all year. From a Greek woman who trusted ChatGPT to predict infidelity through coffee grounds, to a man in a Teletubby costume breaking into his friend’s house, this one is packed with wild ride energy.

    Other stories include:

    • A child who ordered 70,000 Dum Dums (yes, really)

    • A woman stealing $11,000 worth of chicken wings

    • A woodpecker terrorizing Massachusetts (we’re serious)

    • A man in a cow suit robbing Walmart

    • And a disturbing true crime story out of Russia involving dead children dressed as dolls

    If your brain hurts by the end, don’t worry—it’s What the Hell? after all.

    We keep it light, fun, and completely unpredictable—because sometimes reality is stranger than horror fiction.
