    The Unknown Number
    Sep 11 2025
    Imagine being a teenager. Your phone is constantly going off, but every time it buzzes, it isn’t a friend. Instead, it’s a threat. For almost two years, high school students Lauryn Licari and Owen McKenny couldn’t escape the messages, the calls, the feeling that someone was always watching. What began as unsettling interruptions grew into a campaign of harassment, and when they found out who was actually behind the messages, their entire world would change.

    FROM THE VAULT: The legendary Eddie Aikau
    Jul 31 2025
    Originally released as a Mini Creep on our Patreon on 12/9/24! Today Mogab tells Kristin all about one of her absolute heroes: The man, the myth, the legend: Eddie Aikau. Eddie was more than just a legendary surfer—he was a true waterman, lifeguard, and Hawaiian icon. Known for riding massive waves at Waimea Bay and for saving hundreds of lives as Oahu’s first lifeguard on the North Shore, Eddie lived his life with courage and aloha. But his story goes deeper than surfing, with a fateful journey on the Hokule’a canoe cementing his place in history and his bittersweet legacy, one that still echoes in Hawaii and beyond. Eddie would go! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • FROM THE VAULT: The Murder of Janett Christman

    FROM THE VAULT: The Murder of Janett Christman
    Jul 24 2025
    While we're on break, we're busting open the vault and releasing some of our favorite bonus episodes we've done over the years, so please enjoy this bonus episode from 2022!! This is a case that inspired everything from the movie When A Stranger Calls to the urban legend The Babysitter and the Man Upstairs. Think "the call is coming from inside the house." It was March 18, 1950, a truly dark and stormy night. In Columbia, Missouri, 13 year old Janett Christman arrived at the Romack's home to babysit their 3 year old son. The boy was already sleeping when Janett arrived, so it should have been an easy night. But when the Romack's returned late that night, they found a horrible scene. Janett had been raped and strangled with an electric cord. As law enforcement investigates, they are stunned to see so many similarities between Janett's murder and another murder that happened nearby, 4 years previously. Learn more about your ad choices.

    FROM THE VAULT: The Murder of Marjorie Nugent
    Jul 17 2025
    We're on our break, so enjoy this release of an episode from 2022, originally released exclusively on our Patreon! This is the true story behind the 2012 Richard Linklater movie, Bernie, starring Jack Black, Shirley McClaine, and Matthew McConaughey. It’s about an assistant funeral director, Bernie Tiede, who everyone in town loves, and who befriends a rich, elderly widow named Marjorie Nugent, who nobody likes. Marjorie becomes more and more controlling and more demanding, and Bernie goes to extreme lengths to get out from under her grasp. It’s described as a black comedy, of course with Jack Black at the helm, but after hearing more of the details of the case, it left people wondering: was the real Bernie Tiede the doting saint he was portrayed to be, or a conniving con man?
