  • S2.E12 - Willy Wonka’s Not So Golden Ticket: The Bradford Sweet Poisonings

    S2.E12 - Willy Wonka’s Not So Golden Ticket: The Bradford Sweet Poisonings
    Apr 3 2026
    This week, the Pandemonium team heads to Victorian England for one of history’s most shocking mass poisoning events - the Bradford sweets poisoning. In Bradford in 1858, what should have been a simple batch of peppermint lozenges turned into a deadly mistake when arsenic was accidentally used instead of sugar substitute, leaving more than 200 people sick and at least 20 dead. We dig into how a cost-cutting shortcut, a breakdown in oversight, and a chain of small decisions created a public health disaster that changed food safety laws forever. From confectioner Joseph Neal to supplier James Archer, and the tragic story of victim William Hardaker, this case shows how ordinary life can turn catastrophic in an instant. It’s a story about industrialization, accountability, and the moment society realized that what we consume needs regulation - because sometimes the scariest crimes aren’t intentional at all.

  • S2.E11 - Serotonin Saturday: Episode 2: TEACHERS: The People Behind the Desk

    S2.E11 - Serotonin Saturday: Episode 2: TEACHERS: The People Behind the Desk
    Mar 28 2026

    In this second installment of Serotonin Saturday, Cat and Rachel are talking about the people who show up every single day and quietly hold the world together - teachers. We start with special education teacher Kati Jo Christensen in Weber County, who went viral for dancing on TikTok to erase student lunch debt - turning a small $4,000 goal into support for multiple schools and recognition from the West Haven City Council. Then we expand to stories like a teacher in Cleveland securing donated washers and dryers from Lowe’s, alongside nationwide efforts through DonorsChoose, programs from Whirlpool, and care closet initiatives like Kids Kloset in Harbor Beach. This episode is highlighting how teachers quietly step in to meet students’ basic needs so they can show up, learn, and feel seen. The world feels heavy. But these stories - the quiet, everyday acts of care - remind us that compassion is still everywhere. Sometimes it looks like a viral dance. Sometimes it looks like a washer and dryer in a school hallway. And sometimes it looks like a teacher making sure a kid can walk into class with dignity.

    S2.E10 - Control, Calculation, and the Anatomy of Manipulation: The Horrendous Tales of Ted Bundy: AKA Sparkle T*ts McGee
    Mar 27 2026

    The Pandemonium team is back, and this week Cat and Rachel take on one of the most infamous names in true crime - Ted Bundy, who we’ve lovingly renamed Sparkle T*ts because - absolutely not. From his carefully crafted charm to the trail of violence he left across multiple states, this episode breaks down how Bundy manipulated victims, media, and the justice system while hiding in plain sight.

    We focus on the facts, the failures that allowed him to keep killing, and the women whose lives were taken - because they deserve to be remembered far more than he does. Grab your hydration station and your skepticism.

    Sparkle T*ts McGee does NOT get the last word.
