About this listen
For our first WTF episode of 2026, we’re answering Oliver’s call for more dumb criminals, bizarre crimes, and “how did anyone think this would work?” moments — and wow… people really tested the limits of common sense last year.
In this episode of Weird True Crime, Amber and Gina break down real criminal cases from 2025–2026 involving meth-fueled decisions, stolen historical artifacts, slow-speed police chases, botched murder-for-hire plots, naked carjackers, and criminals who absolutely should not be writing true crime books.
From an 800-pound war cannon stolen to pay a drug debt, to a man who borrowed a tourist train for his birthday, to a near-naked burglar wearing nothing but a tablecloth — this episode proves that crime and intelligence rarely go hand in hand.
If you love funny true crime stories, dumb criminals getting caught, WTF news headlines, and sarcastic commentary, this episode is for you.
