• The Kansas City Butcher - Robert Berdella - Part 1 03.07.2026 54นาที

  The man the world would come to know as the Kansas City Butcher didn't simply kill his victims, he studied them. Hidden inside an ordinary home in Kansas City's Hyde Park neighborhood, Robert Berdella spent years imprisoning vulnerable young men, meticulously recording their torture with handwritten notes and hundreds of Polaroid photographs before dismembering their bodies in an attempt to erase every trace of the crimes. By the time police finally crossed his front doorstep in April 1988, they had unknowingly been searching for his victims for nearly four years.Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/
• The Great Emu War 30.06.2026 47นาที

  In 1932, the Australian government made a decision so unbelievable it still sounds like satire today, it deployed soldiers armed with machine guns to wage war against an estimated 20,000 emus that were invading their land. What began as a desperate attempt to save struggling farmers during the Great Depression quickly spiraled into one of the most bizarre and embarrassing military operations in modern history. Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/
• Disappearance of Frederick Valentich - UFO Encounter 26.06.2026 47นาที

  On October 21, 1978, twenty year old pilot Frederick Valentich departed Melbourne on what should have been a routine flight to King Island. Just minutes after passing Cape Otway, he radioed air traffic control to report a strange object flying around his aircraft before uttering the chilling words, "It's not an aircraft," moments before radio contact was lost forever. Despite an extensive four-day search involving military aircraft, civilian pilots, and ships across Bass Strait, no confirmed trace of Frederick or his Cessna was ever found, leaving behind one of Australia's most debated aviation mysteries and a case that continues to divide investigators nearly fifty years later.Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/

  In June 1998, eight year old Robbie Middleton was attacked in the woods behind his Texas neighborhood,. He was then doused in gasoline, and set on fire in what investigators would later describe as one of the most horrifying attacks they had ever seen. Burned over nearly 99 percent of his body, Robbie somehow survived and spent the next thirteen years enduring more than 150 surgeries while the person accused of attacking him remained free. Then just before his death in 2011, Robbie gave a final videotaped statement identifying the person who was responsible and revealed information that changed the entire direction of the case. What followed was a legal battle involving a record breaking civil verdict, a reopened homicide investigation, and a murder trial nearly seventeen years after the fire itself.Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/

  Between January 1969 and January 1971, three women were murdered inside their own homes across Southwestern Ontario Canada, with their cases unfolding with no clear connection at the time. Each scene pointed to the same kind of controlled, violent attack.However without shared systems or forensic tools, investigators were left working each case in isolation as leads quickly dried up. It would ultimatley take decades, a family confession, and DNA evidence preserved from 1969 to reveal that one man, Gerald Thomas Archer, had been behind all three.Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/

Within days, he went from the sole survivor to being charged with five counts of murder, setting off a case built on conflicting timelines, contested forensic evidence, and two completely different explanations of what happened.

  In March 1989, 21 year old pre-med student Mark Kilroy disappeared during a spring break trip to Matamoros, Mexico after being separated from his friends for just a few minutes.But what initially operated as a standard missing person case quickly escalated into an international investigation involving U.S. and Mexican authorities. As the search intensified, it led to the discovery of a place called Rancho Santa Elena, which was a remote property tied to drug trafficking and ritual practices. It was a place where at least 15 bodies would eventually be recovered, all of which were victims of ritual sacrafice. What started as one disappearance ultimately exposed a pattern of violence that extended far beyond Mark, revealing a case far more disturbing than anyone had expected.Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/
