In this episode of They Were Both Found Dead, we journey through three disturbing corners of history. First, the chaos and bloodshed of the 1886 Haymarket Affair, the protest that turned deadly and forever changed the labor movement. Then, we unravel the story behind shrunken heads, from ritual practice to modern exploitation. Finally, we cover the horrifying crimes of Erna and Horst Petri, a Nazi couple whose war atrocities shock even decades later.

Dark history, human horror, and the unsettling truths the past refuses to bury.

Today we talk about the horrific Tulsa Massacre and the events leading up to it- a thriving black community in the middle of our country, war torn and burnt to the ground in one night. We follow up discussing Vietnam, and the crazy psychological tactics used by both the states and Vietnam soldiers. You’ve heard about the horrific physical traps, but what about the mental ones?

In this gripping episode of They Were Both Found Dead, we uncover the devastating cost of human greed in some of the most tragic architectural disasters in history. We begin with the Quebec Bridge, which collapsed twice during construction in 1907 after warnings were ignored. In post-war London, the Battersea Park funfair disaster reveals how profit-driven neglect turned a simple amusement ride into a deadly trap. In Omaha, a meatpacking plant crumbled onto its workers, the result of years of cutting corners and ignoring safety. The Champlain Towers South collapse in Surfside, Florida highlights how delayed repairs and cost-saving decisions became a death sentence for its residents. Finally, we revisit the Kansas City Hyatt Regency skywalk disaster, where a last-minute design change made to save time and money led to one of the deadliest structural failures in American history.
