    Episode 559: The Murder of Timothy Coggins
    Apr 29 2024

    On the evening of October 9, 1983, twenty-three-year-old Timothy Coggins met up with some friends for a night out at the People’s Choice club, a popular night club in Griffin, Georgia, a rural area about forty-five minutes outside of Atlanta. When Tim didn’t return home the next day, his family assumed he’d stayed at a friend’s house, as he often did on nights he stayed out late. Those assumptions were shattered one day later, when investigators showed up at the Coggins’ front door carrying a photograph of what would be identified as Tim’s dead, mutilated body.

    At first, local investigators assured the Coggins family they would find whoever was responsible for Tim’s brutal murder; however, within just a couple weeks, it was clear they didn’t have any leads or evidence, nor did they seem all that interested in investigating Tim’s death. Eventually, the months passed into years and the case went completely cold and Tim’s family lost any hope of his killers being brought to justice. Then, more than three decades after his death, investigators contacted the Coggins family and told them they’d found the men responsible for Tim’s death.

    Timothy Coggins’ story is yet another reminder of how in many parts of the United States, the hideous beliefs of a bygone era are still alive and well, devastating families and perverting the justice system.

    Episode 557: The Glove Guy (With Jordan Bonaparte from The Night Time Podcast)
    Apr 22 2024

    Trigger warning: Please be aware that adult subject matter is discussed within this episode and is not recommended for young listeners.


    Jordan Bonaparte from the Night Time Podcast joins us to talk about his deep dive into the lore of the nefarious 'Glove Guy'. Initially, he thought the man to be little more than an urban legend and published a post asking for people to tell about their experiences. Men of Halifax, Canada, flooded his inquiry with stories claiming to have EXTREMELY strange late night interactions with the man. The stories are odd, but what Jordan experienced after his podcast released was truly unexpected.

One of the best true crime podcasts hands down.

This podcast is one of my favorite things to listen to while at work. The girls are hilarious and do a really good job at researching. They are extreemly respectful to the victims and thier familys while bringing some humor to the stories. I would classify morbid as a comedy/true crime podcast. Alaina is an autopsy tech and her expertise brings another level of depth to the stories.

I love these ladies!

They do a great job with the episodes being easy to take in for someone that can't watch scary anything on TV (like paranorman freaked me out and gave me trouble sleeping). they definitely do a great deal of background work that is so interesting and in credibly helpful in snagging a listener! It makes the stories bananas (followers of the podcast will understand the reference). I enjoy the live clips even though listening to actual murderers is very creepy... it makes them people not stories which is weird. They remind me of if me and my best friend had a podcast together. I could totally be friends with them (Ash and Alaina) in real life. highly recommend. I listen while I'm at work. huge fan.

absolutely love!

I'm so happy to share that crime podcasts will never be the same for me. these girls are two awesome, amazing, hilarious crime junkies. they have the right balance to tell you about a crime but yet lighten the mood after the darkness of the tale. there's times where Ash reacts the exact way I did. I love these girls they pick the best stories definitely recommend

finally a good true crime podcast

most podcasts are boring and talk about a lot of unrelated info, but thankfully these girls are awesome. worth the listen since they actually address the details of the crimes instead of other podcasts. and small world, they are from the same state as myself.
