Short Suck #32 - The Identical Deaths of the Identical Marcus Twins

Would you choose to have an identical twin? Someone who looked so much like you, that even your own mother couldn’t always tell the two of you apart?  Someone whom friends and even lovers couldn’t distinguish you from? Someone who experienced the world in a way so similar to your own, that no one else could ever possibly be able to relate to you quite like they could. Could be fun! But as you'll see... it could be also dangerous. For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com [https://www.badmagicproductions.com/]

451 - Panic on the TV! Do Violent Movies Create Violent Children?

Today we talk about moral panics. Specifically, the "Video Nasty" moral panic that happened in the UK in the early 1980s, and then again in the 1990s, when there was widespread fear that by kids watching horror movies with titles like Cannibal Holocaust, Flesh for Frankenstein, I Spit on Your Grave, and The Last House on the Left, they would literally be turned into rapists and killers. Was there any justification for this panic? Can hyper-violent or hyper-sexualized media in general erode the morality of children?  Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com  [http://www.badmagicproductions.com/] Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89v [https://discord.gg/tqzH89v] Want to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

450 - Serial Killer Pee Wee Gaskins: Meanest Man in America

Pee Wee Gaskin's diminutive size of 5'2" tall and 130 pounds soaking wet didn't stop him from brutally killing at least eleven people, and possibly up to 105. The South Carolina serial killer murdered for a lot of reasons: revenge and personal vendettas, fits of rage, but mostly to satisfy a deep-rooted urge to rape, torture, and kill young women.  An urge Pee Wee called, his "bothersomeness.”  Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com  [http://www.badmagicproductions.com/] Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89v [https://discord.gg/tqzH89v] Want to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

Short Suck #31 - Why Do We Do That?

Today we're we’re gonna tackle a bunch of questions you never knew you needed answering, questions like: Why does the middle finger mean “fuck you”? Why do we blow out candles at birthday parties? Why do we cover our mouths when we yawn? And where does the whole making "bunny ears" with your fingers behind someone's head when they're getting their photo taken come from? The answers to these questions are often so strange, and so ancient.  For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com [https://www.badmagicproductions.com/]

449 - Russia's Terrifying Cyberwar Against the West

How much of what you read online has been planted there by Russian propagandists? How many times have you followed a social media account, or reposted information from an account, that's controlled by a Russian Troll Farm? How aware are you of Russia's ongoing (and shockingly successful) attempts to cripple and then topple America from within? This episode is a different, much more dystopian kind of scary.  Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com  [http://www.badmagicproductions.com/] Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89v [https://discord.gg/tqzH89v] Want to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?
