THE MT SHOW PODCAST

The Dyatlov Pass Incident (S1 E10)

Journey into the frozen heart of the Cold War's greatest unsolved mystery, where nine experienced hikers died bizarrely in the Siberian wilderness. We explore the horrific clues and evaluate the theories—from an avalanche or native attack to a yeti or nuclear test—that try to explain their fate.

Legend of the Skinwalkers (S1 E9)

The Skinwalker (or Yee Naaldlooshii). This is not a simple monster tale; it is the legend of a human witch who has attained monstrous power by committing the ultimate act of evil—the murder of a family member. We explore the Skinwalker’s true cultural purpose as a chilling social regulator, the unsettling details of their shape-shifting abilities and malicious curses, and the modern phenomenon surrounding the infamous Skinwalker Ranch in Utah. Tune in for a respectful, in-depth look at the creature.

The Wendigo (S1 E8)

The Wendigo is a creature from Algonquian folklore, traditionally representing the spirit of greed and gluttony, often linked to cannibalism and the severe cold, manifesting as a gaunt, starved human or spectral being. In modern pop culture, however, the Wendigo is typically depicted as a monstrous, deer-like creature—a physically terrifying horror antagonist used to symbolize unbridled consumption and monstrous hunger.

The Pig Farm Killer: Robert Pickton (S1 E7)

In this episode, we sit down to unpack one of the most disturbing and unbelievable true-crime stories out of Canada — the case of Robert “Willy” Pickton, the pig farmer whose quiet property hid unthinkable horrors. We talk through how he managed to slip through the cracks for years, the heartbreaking stories of the missing women, and the massive investigation that finally brought his crimes to light. Along the way, we react, debate, and try to make sense of how something like this could happen in plain sight.

H. H. Holmes: The Beast of Chicago and the 'Murder Castle' (S1 E6)

Explore the dark history of H. H. Holmes, often cited as America's first documented serial killer, who capitalized on the frenzy of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. Holmes lured victims into his infamous "Murder Castle," a three-story building constructed with trap doors, hidden chambers, and a basement specially designed for torture and disposal. We dissect the sinister legacy of Herman Webster Mudgett, a master con artist and murderer whose chilling crimes shocked the Gilded Age and cemented his place as the original "Beast of Chicago."
