Episode 55: Bean Town!

Episode 57: Before They Found Him

In Episode 57 Kyla is coming for Nicole's crown for "Worst Story". m Bruce wasn’t your typical serial killer mastermind. He was less “criminal genius” and more “guy who definitely owns a van with extension cords in it.” The kind of man where, if he offered you a drink, you suddenly remembered you had somewhere else to be for the rest of your life. And the wildest part? He might have gotten away with everything… if he hadn’t basically defeated himself in the dumbest possible way imaginable. Which honestly puts him in the rare category of serial killers brought down by what can only be described as aggressive incompetence. So lock your doors, maybe avoid mysterious basements in suburban Illinois, and join us as we discuss one of the strangest cases where the killer, the crime scene, and the accidental self-own all happened in the same night.

Episode 56: The Devil Wears Leggings

Kyla’s starting to notice a pattern: somehow her episodes are always the ones that get “lost.” Corrupted audio. Missing files. “Technical difficulties.” Very convenient. This week, while Kyla launches a full internal investigation into possible podcast sabotage, we unpack the chaotic saga of Brittany Dawn — from fitness influencer fame to lawsuit fallout to the world’s fastest influencer rebrand. Between scam allegations, apology videos with suspicious lighting, and Kyla accusing Nicole of deleting episodes to silence her truth, this may be the closest the podcast has ever come to a congressional hearing.

Episode 55: Bean Town!

Episode 55 is officially un-lost. . . again? After being buried deeper than a bootleg bottle in a Chicago basement, this long-forgotten episode has resurfaced—and just in time for one of the most infamous bloodbaths in true crime history: the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. We’re talking gangsters, machine guns, bad decisions, and even worse disguises. But that’s not the only thing worth celebrating… because somehow, against all odds, Kyla is turning 40 today. That’s right—while we’re diving into organized crime chaos, Kyla is entering her own era of… slightly more organized chaos. So grab a drink (legally, like adults), settle in, and join us for an episode that’s been waiting in the wings almost as long as Kyla’s been alive. Episode 55: the lost one, the bloody one, and unfortunately for Kyla—the birthday one.

Episode 54: Bad Genes & Bad Takes: Galton, RFK Jr. and Kyla's spiral...

Welcome back to the podcast—where history gets messy, science gets questionable, and Kyla somehow finds a way to bring it all back to eugenics…again. Today’s episode has everything: Victorian-era pseudoscience, a guy who thought measuring skulls was a personality test, and a modern-day conspiracy enthusiast who said, “yeah, I’ll have what he’s having.” We’re talking about Sir Francis Galton—the OG of eugenics—paired with RFK Jr., who proves that bad ideas don’t die, they just get a podcast microphone. And of course, Kyla is here, absolutely thriving, because this is now—what—her third, fourth, fifth eugenics-adjacent story? At this point we’re less concerned and more impressed by the commitment. So buckle up, because this episode is a wild ride through bad science, worse takes, and the uncomfortable realization that some ideas really should have stayed in the 1800s.

Episode 53: Glow Big or Go Home

Episode 53 drops you straight into the chilling reality of Chernobyl disaster—a night where routine testing spiraled into one of the worst nuclear catastrophes in history. We’ll get into what actually happened inside Reactor No. 4, the human errors and design flaws that turned a test into an explosion, and the devastating aftermath that spread far beyond Chernobyl. Expect eerie details, heartbreaking stories, and the kind of long-lasting impact that still lingers today.
