    EP66: God Is A Woman
    May 22 2024
    Love Has Won is a modern-day cult shrouded in mystery and controversy, heralding a woman named Amy Carlson as the Mother of All Creation. According to Amy’s devout followers, she was a 19-billion-year-old reincarnated deity with the power to cure all illness through love. Her advisory circle was an eclectic ensemble of dead celebrities with whom she claimed to be in direct communication. Amy Carlson led hundreds of followers who believed fervently in her divine identity and powers, trusting her with not just their spiritual and physical well-being, but also their financial resources. Under the guise of spiritual enlightenment and healing, she manipulated and controlled her followers until the day she died by the very principles she preached. Following her death, we are thrusted into a vortex of haunting questions: Was her death, which slowly and painfully unfolded on livestream alongside her followers who watched, murder or suicide? Or, as her disciples proclaim, did she simply leave her earthly body (which had turned completely blue) to ascend to a fifth dimension? Her bizarre saga, from the mundane to the mystical, beckons us to unravel the dangerous reality behind her harrowing end.

    EP65: "Bye Mam, I Love You"
    May 15 2024
    On a somber Sunday in 2010, the quiet town of Maesteg, South Wales, was shaken by tragedy when 15-year-old Rebecca “Becca” Aylward vanished after meeting her ex-boyfriend, Josh Davies. Her mother, Sonia Oatley, tirelessly searched the streets, driven by dread and mounting desperation. The search ended with a chilling call: "Stop searching. Come home." This confirmed Sonia's worst fears: Becca was not just missing - she was lost forever. The community was stunned to learn that Josh, once trusted and loved by Becca and her entire family, savagely took her young life simply to settle a bet with a friend. Becca’s last words, "Bye Mam, I love you," will remain a poignant reminder of the innocent life so cruelly taken by a cold, calculated, and ruthless teenage predator.

    The Ant Hill Kids Cult (featuring Grace O'Malley, host of Plan Bri Uncut podcast)
    May 10 2024
    In this episode, we are joined by special guest, comedian and Barstool podcaster, Grace O'Malley. The Ant Hill Kids, a dangerous cult led by the enigmatic and malevolent Roch Thériault, stands as a chilling testament to the depths of human vulnerability and the intoxicating power of charismatic manipulation. Nestled in the remote wilderness of Canada, this cult was not merely an isolated commune; it was a cauldron of sadistic rituals, extreme religious fervor, and grotesque acts of violence. Thériault, who proclaimed himself the divine messenger of God, ruled over his followers with an iron fist, exploiting their faith to commit unspeakable atrocities of violence. As we delve into the harrowing tale of the Ant Hill Kids, we confront the darkest corners of the human psyche and grapple with the chilling question of how seemingly ordinary individuals ultimately chose to surrender their safety and autonomy to the whims of a madman. @graceomalley @planbriuncut @omalleyoverload @piratewater Instagram + Threads: @psychopediapod @tank.sinatra @investigatorslater Patreon: www.patreon.com/psychopediapod Email: psychopediapod@gmail.com Website: www.psychopediapodcast.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

    EP64: Pranked and Poisoned
    May 8 2024
    The assassination of Kim Jong-Nam, brother of North Korea's leader Kim Jong-Un, was an outrageously mind-boggling event. It unfolded like a script where a spy thriller and a candid-camera show intersected and somehow, incredibly, changed history. Prank comedy, particularly in East Asia, has solidified its place in entertainment by capitalizing on the universal appeal of humor and surprise. This unique genre thrives on the unexpected and transforms everyday situations into stages for unscripted comedy. Watching ordinary people caught in extraordinary setups is often hilarious—unless the "prank" turns into a meticulously planned murder, leaving the unsuspecting participant dead. In this case, the victim was no ordinary person but a potential leader of North Korea's Kim dynasty. His death during what seemed like a prank show was actually a political assassination.

    EP63: Scissor Sisters (Part 2)
    May 1 2024
    In Part 2 of our deep dive into the notorious Irish "Scissor Sisters" case, we explore the investigation into the brutal slaughter of 39-year-old Farah Swaleh Noor. Sisters Charlotte and Linda Mulhall bludgeoned, stabbed, and dismembered Noor’s body in a crime so shocking that it continues to shock and disgust. How were these two sisters brought to justice? Moreover, how do their troubled pasts, marked by physical violence and substance abuse, influence our perception of the gruesome act they committed against a man known to be a sexual predator? Our exploration delves into the minds and motives behind these exceedingly violent actions, not to justify them, but to seek a deeper understanding of why the Scissor Sisters embarked on such a dark path. TRIGGER WARNING: This episode is graphic in nature and discusses topics of sexual assault and self-harm. Please listen with caution.

    EP62: Scissor Sisters (Part 1)
    Apr 24 2024
    The notorious "Scissor Sisters" case ranks among the most brutal and shocking in Irish history, leaving a dark mark on the true crime genre. Linda and Charlotte Mulhall, despite a troubled existence marred by alcohol and drug addiction and a history of abuse, had never shown signs of extreme violence or serious legal troubles. That changed dramatically when they gruesomely stabbed, bludgeoned, and cut the throat of their mother's boyfriend, dismembered his body in a bathroom, and discarded the remains in Dublin's Royal Canal. Adding to the horror, they retained his head with the intention of burying it separately, turning a savage murder into a macabre tale of calculated cruelty. In Part 1 of our two-part coverage of this outrageous case, we detail exactly what happened, how it happened, and cover some fascinating facts surrounding "homicidal mutilation." TRIGGER WARNING: This episode is graphic in nature and discusses topics of sexual assault and self-harm. Please listen with caution.

    EP61: Neglected to Death
    Apr 17 2024
    Some fates are worse than death. One such fate—physically melting into a couch, with flesh fusing to the fabric—was absolutely agonizing and tragically endured by a 36-year-old woman named Lacey Fletcher. Lacey faced various challenges that made her entirely dependent upon her parents, Sheila and Clay. However, instead of providing the necessary medical and psychological support that Lacey needed, her parents allowed her to slowly (and painfully) die before their very eyes. Immobile, nonverbal, and unable to call for help, Lacey was at the mercy of two merciless people who allowed maggots to feed off her dying flesh while she was still alive. This case probes deep into the darkest aspects of human nature, where those expected to protect and nurture by virtue of blood and love instead became instruments of outrageous suffering.

    EP60: Toolbox Killers
    Apr 10 2024
    "For those of you who don’t know what hell is like, you will find out." These were the foreboding words a prosecutor uttered in 1981, moments before playing 17 harrowing minutes of audio that documented the appalling abuse of a 16-year-old girl. The courtroom was enveloped in grief, with many in tears or compelled to leave…all except for Lawrence Bittaker and Roy Norris, the two perpetrators responsible for the suffering. Known as “The Toolbox Killers,” this infamous serial killer team sat unfazed, even smiling, as their victim's screams filled the room, a stark testament to their depravity. Responsible for the torture and murder of five teenage girls in California, Bitaker and Norris's actions truly represent the epitome of human cruelty. Their heartbreaking, calculated torment of their victims before their deaths is the stuff of nightmares. TRIGGER WARNING: This case is very graphic in nature and may be difficult to listen to. Please listen with caution.
