Welcome to part 1 of The British Binge! Mark Martin had an abusive childhood. He was abusive to his classmates, and it wouldn't take too long for him to wind up on the streets, where he became a bully to the homeless and a drug dealer. He had a goal. Become Nottingham's first serial killer! He wanted the infamy of becoming a serial killer. So, he did, preying on 2 homeless women, and a woman who was actually sympathetic to the plight OF the homeless. He was a total serial killer wannabe. He boasted about his murders to anyone who would listen, and even continued boasting in prison. We rip this chucklehead to shreds. Check out our episode on Michael And Jeremy Steal Your Podcast!

This episode of CKCB is brought to you a day early by Hurricane Helene. We wanted to make sure that we got the episode out in case we lose power on Thursday, the 26th because this is a biggun! This is also part 3 of the Wisconsin Cheese Binge. Jessie Blodgett was a winner. She was super intelligent, a gifted musician, aspiring actress, music teacher. advocate for the stopping of violence against women, and just an all around awesome person. And, she was only in High School! She had a friend, Daniel Bartelt who she briefly dated in high school who was equally intelligent and also a gifted musician. They briefly dated in high school, and separated when they went away for college, to different colleges, but remained friends. The first summer after college, everyone came back home. There was an attack and a murder, but the biggest question was why? #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #TrueCrimeComedy #TrueCrimeComedyPodcast #Murder #SerialKiller #Cult #JessieBlodgett #Wisconsin https://www.ckcbpodcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/crimeskillerscultsandbeer/ https://twitter.com/CKC_Beer https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUyuqDB2Dlszhpc_pGca29w https://www.facebook.com/groups/257328477392782/

Episode 2 of the Wisconsin Cheese Binge! Tonight, we’re covering Thad Phillips, and Joe Clark, The Bonebreaker Killer. Joe Clark was a sicko who had aspirations of becoming a serial killer. He killed a teenager named Chris Steiner, by kidnapping him, and forcefully breaking his bones. He died of internal bleeding, and Joe dumped him in a river. His murder would be unsolved for a year, until Joe did the same thing to Thad Phillips. But, Thad survived, and escaped. That would later survive a shooting. He had to be a descendant of Michael Malloy. Join us for this amazing story of survival! Note...This episode was originally done very early on, but the audio tracks were out of synch. #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #TrueCrimeComedy #TrueCrimeComedyPodcast #Murder #SerialKiller #Cult #Survivor #JoeClark #ThadPhillips #BonebreakerKiller #MichaelMalloy https://www.ckcbpodcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/crimeskillerscultsandbeer/ https://twitter.com/CKC_Beer https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUyuqDB2Dlszhpc_pGca29w https://www.facebook.com/groups/257328477392782/

Hey, everyone..We’re going to Wisconsin to cover a really sick individual named Steven Zelich. He was a sadistic killer, who took BDSM a little too far, and his online screen name was Mr Handcuffs. He was a cop in Wisconsin, who lost his job because of multiple complaints from women, specifically strippers about him stalking them. But, he soon amped up his routine, grooming women to come to him from other parts of the country to be dominated, and controlled by him. He was very specific in what he wanted these women to do before coming to him. He basically had them erase themselves from society. One day, 2 suitcases were found on the side of the road, and they both contained a dead woman. Great police work both by the actual police, and an internet sleuth friend of one of the victims led the police to Steven Zelich, and once the DNA evidence was uncovered, there was literally nothing he could say in his defense. So, join us on this amazing case about how great police work, and a killer’s stupidity saved the lives of other potential victims. #SerialKiller #Cult #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeComedy #TrueCrimeComedyPodcast #TrueCrimePodcast #StevenZelich #MrHandcuffs #BDSM #SuitcaseMurders https://www.ckcbpodcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/crimeskillerscultsandbeer/ https://twitter.com/CKC_Beer https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUyuqDB2Dlszhpc_pGca29whttps://www.facebook.com/groups/257328477392782/

We are BACK, baby! With a brand new co-host! Sandra is the new CKCB co-host. She is simply amazing! We're covering a serial killer doctor, Michael Swango. Dubbed by his college medical school classmates, working on actual patients as Double 0 Swango, License to Kill, he slipped through the cracks because he had the highest body count of any other student. But, that didn't stop him from becoming a doctor on an internship, as well as an ambulance medic, where he began poisoning his coworkers food and drinks. Before too long, the jig was up, and he fled to Zimbabwe, where he continued his murderous habit. Ultimately, he was brought to justice, but this is a crazy story. #SerialKiller #Cult #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeComedy #TrueCrimeComedyPodcast #TrueCrimePodcast #MurderousDoctors #MichaelSwango https://www.ckcbpodcast.com/https://www.instagram.com/crimeskillerscultsandbeer/https://twitter.com/CKC_Beerhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUyuqDB2Dlszhpc_pGca29whttps://www.facebook.com/groups/257328477392782/

Hey, everybody...Bill here. I’m once again without a cohost. I’ve decided to take a break until I find a new one. Shouldn’t take too long. I’ve been told by a couple other podcaster friends that I don’t need a cohost, and that I can do it solo. I appreciate the vote of confidence from them. It means a lot, but I really like bouncing things off of people. Shout out to Jessica from TTC and Ash from TSFU. I’m still going to be writing episodes during this break, so when I come back, I’ll have at least 4 episodes ready to go. I’m also going to be working on my book. I’ve asked several people if they’d be interested in coming on as the cohost, and they are thinking about it. And, I’m planning on coming back with a woman as my cohost. But, if you’re interested, message me on the socials, and we’ll talk. I’m still going to be active on the socials, and I’m going to be on several different podcasts as a guest in the coming weeks. Anyway, this shouldn’t take too long, and in the immortal words of The Terminator, I’ll be back. And, until next time, Later https://www.ckcbpodcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/crimeskillerscultsandbeer/ https://twitter.com/CKC_Beer https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUyuqDB2Dlszhpc_pGca29w https://www.facebook.com/groups/257328477392782/

The second interview I’ve done with a cult survivor. Richard Kiers, who I talked about in Episode 118, The Movement of God cult. He fills in the details on his story, and he’s written a book about his experience. We also discuss cults in general. It was a great interview. His book is a very good read, and you can get it here: https://www.amazon.com/Swindled-Faith-Reconciliation-Richard-Kiers/dp/0228815088/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2GDW14417KILU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.TWXXHbz1Eaf_VTB4zc-FF1GmmGereIbnnpFeslpESkIv2qgF0ctLYbIWkP2L2e3wnTtVjlqV_qG1Xi09hwrxOamaVi5-5vmlyonvHkwrKlG7vjxsNDTsMVpbR1H4Z4Anksq70wKyVqMtmQo0628xXQ.pG6AMYV8CkrNzeLMrp2F6X4E5JQI06Xoy4UR1kZAWLI&dib_tag=se&keywords=richard+kiers&qid=1723953272&sprefix=%2Caps%2C118&sr=8-1 #SerialKiller #Cult #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeComedy #TrueCrimeComedyPodcast #TrueCrimePodcast #RichardKiers #TheMove #TheMovementOfGodCult https://www.ckcbpodcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/crimeskillerscultsandbeer/ https://twitter.com/CKC_Beer https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUyuqDB2Dlszhpc_pGca29w https://www.facebook.com/groups/257328477392782/

Tonight, we’re going back to the Canada binge, and episode 104, the Insane Canadian Cult, His Rest Christian Fellowship, led by sadistic cult leader, Rima Ailing. She was horrible. I recommend you go back and listen to that episode before listening to this one, if you haven’t yet. But the story didn’t end when Ep 104 did. It went on for another 20 years, and I’m joined tonight by Desti, who was born into this cult to the Haywards, who talked about (Not very nicely) in Ep 104. She is Nate’s little sister. She bravely tells her story about growing up in the cult in its second chapter, and in many ways, the second chapter was worse than the first. BUT, this story has the most satisfying end of any cult story I’ve ever heard. Desti is amazing, and I admire her. So, once again, buckle up for an insane story, but at least this one has a happy ending.

Joining us tonight on CKCB is Todd, of the Grinding True Crime Podcast. We’re covering the Word Of Life Christian Church cult, led by Jerry and then Tiffanie Irwin. It was located in Chadwicks NY, and it was a particularly nasty cult, with all the trappings of one of the craziest. And it escalated as time went on, gradually getting worse and worse, until things exploded in 2015 with the brutal and torturous death of 19 year old Lucas Leonard, at the hands of the cult leader, both his parents, and half sister.

William Darrell Lindsey is a lesser known serial killer from Florida. But he definitely is a heavy hitter. And, a sadistic one as well. He was another woman hater who fixated on sex workers. His biological parents were killed in a car accident when he was 3 months old. He survived, but likely suffered a head injury. He was adopted by a family, where the mother was an extremely ultra religious sadist who beat him relentlessly. He married an extremely toxic and abusive woman, and had 5 kids with her. The marriage wouldn't last, and his wife tried to get the kids, and even kidnapped them. William was seen by the kids as the hero. He remarried, then became abusive to his new wife. Officially, he didn't start murdering until he was 48. He murdered 7 sex workers in Florida, and one in North Carolina. But, Bill has a hot take.

Author, Willis Morgan was in the Sears in Hollywood, FL on July 27, 1981, where he had a disturbing encounter with a strange and creepy man. He watched the man go into Sears, and to the toy department. Later that day, when the news reported that a young boy, Adam Walsh had been abducted, Willis knew it had to be that guy who did it. The police began their "investigation" and were intent to pin the murder on Ottis Toole, despite multiple people reporting they had seen a blue van. Toole had a white Cadillac. And, it was found out that Toole wasn't even in Florida on the date in question, despite Toole confessing to it. Then, Jeffrey Dahmer was arrested. And when his mugshot and photo went out, Morgan and other witnesses knew that it was Dahmer who had abducted Adam. Morgan went into detective mode, and put together a laundry list of evidence, even tracking down the location where the murder might have taken place. The HPD went into overdrive trying to get Morgan to go away. But in the end, Morgan put together enough evidence on Dahmer that if it went to trial, his evidence alone would have convicted Dahmer. Willis Morgan joins Bill and discusses his incredible book, Frustrated Witness: The Complete Story of the Adam Walsh Case.

Keith Hunter Jesperson aka The Happy Face Killer was a Canadian born US Serial killer. He was a long haul truck driver, and used that occupation as a cover for his hobby. He had an abusive father, who he blamed for his issues. He would taunt the police and media with detailed letters about his murders. He ultimately turned himself in when he knew the jig was up, but not before killing at least 8 women. In a plot twist, when his first murder was discovered, a woman, who was allegedly in an abusive relationship tried to frame her boyfriend for the murder, and wound up implicating herself for it, and both people served 5 years for a murder that they did not commit. When Keith confessed, they were let out. This is a crazy story, so we hope you enjoy it. Don’t forget to subscribe, rate, comment and review wherever you get your podcasts, as well as on YouTube.

Jerry Brudos had issues. Born to a mother who made it known that she hated him because he wasn't born a girl, he never stood a chance. He started with his shoe obsession at 5 years old innocently enough, but his mothers reaction to it, combined with losing the only 2 people who cared about him in a matter of months, his obsession escalated. He began stealing shoes, and before too long, his obsession would grow to include women's undergarments along with the shoes. He began to have an urge to dominate women, which would lead to sexual assault, and later to murder. As an adult, he assaulted women, which led to a rape, before he killed 4 women, attempted to kidnap 2 more. He would take pictures of the women in distress, and in death, and he would rape the corpse too. This is the longest CKCB episode to date, but its also one of the most entertaining. Plus, Dick Darwin, Dallas Detective makes his best appearance yet. https://www.ckcbpodcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/crimeskillerscultsandbeer/ https://twitter.com/CKC_Beer https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUyuqDB2Dlszhpc_pGca29w https://www.facebook.com/groups/257328477392782/ #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #TrueCrimeComedy #TrueCrimeComedyPodcast #TrueCrimeCommunity #SerialKiller #Cult #CrimesKillersCultsandBeer #JerryBrudos #ShoeFetish

Tonight, we're discussing the Troubled Teen Industry documentary on Cinemax, Tortured Teens Inc. No guest for this Features episode, so Todd filled in. We've covered TTI several times before, but this is the first time we've covered a documentary on it. The other 2 docs that have been made focused mostly on one location. This one focuses on several, with several different survivors. Check out the doc, check out our episode, and let us know what you think! https://www.ckcbpodcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/crimeskillerscultsandbeer/ https://twitter.com/CKC_Beer https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUyuqDB2Dlszhpc_pGca29w https://www.facebook.com/groups/257328477392782/ #TrueCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #TrueCrimeComedy #TrueCrimeComedyPodcast #TrueCrimeCommunity #SerialKiller #Cult #CrimesKillersCultsandBeer #troubledteenindustry #ParisHilton #BhadBarbie #DanielleBregoli #TTI #DrPhil

Tonight, we’re doing a cult! A lesser known cult that had its roots in the US, Canada, and elsewhere. A cult that had its own troubled teen industry camps set up to reprogram people...mostly kids who didn’t tow the line of the doctrine. Sam Fife, and The Movement of God cult started in the early 1970s. It hit its peak in the late 70s, and ran strong into the 2000s, where it mostly fizzled out. This was a nasty one. It preached a sinless perfection doctrine, where in order to be a chosen one, you had to be completely without sin. But the cult leaders and elders were the ones who got to define what sin was. Child abuse was the norm, and pedophilia was blamed on the young female victim. They also taught faith healing. None of the leaders ever were brought up on criminal charges, but the survivors of this cult have ALOT to say. So, join us in this episode. Its a good one.

Tonight, we’re going to Charlottesville, VA to cover a lesser known dumbass named Jesse Matthew, aka The Back To School Killer. This hulk of a man was a serial rapist, and very likely a serial killer too. He has been convicted of 2 murders, and 3 rapes, but he is suspected in MANY more. And, he got away with it for a while, until he graduated with honors from the BTK school of laying low. He literally went into the police station, and introduced himself. He would show up in college towns around the beginning of the fall semester, when a new crop of students who didn’t yet know the lay of the land were arriving. This is a very interesting case, with lots of great police work at the end, when this guy finally went down. Bill is joined by Mark of Mental Illness Theater, and this was an awesome episode. https://open.spotify.com/show/6J5jm7rnrnSWGiOsVsvNAy?si=e22f6e24a82341f9 Statement of facts from the trial are on this site.

Tonight, we’re heading to Texas! We’re covering a lesser known serial killer. Faryion Wardrip got away with murder and rape for a long time. He was a hardcore drunk and a druggie, and he was baked when he killed people. He was convicted and sent to prison for one murder, and then was stupidly released. But, he had cleaned up, and he moved away, started living legit. Except, he had killed 4 other people, and one of his murders had been blamed on the victim’s husband. But, this is another case where DNA came back to bite a scumbag in the butt. DNA, and some brilliant police work. This was a very interesting and fun case. Fun, because Bill is joined by Matthew from Murder Coaster, and Jessica of Texas True Crime. 3 leads of 3 different podcasts. Can’t go wrong there right? Enjoy! Because we sure did!

Ricky Kasso, aka The Acid Kingwas a troubled teenager, who had a rough childhood, and got into drugs. Big time. This story takes place n Northport, on Long Island, NY in 1984. It was a case that fueled the Satanic Panic because he ran with a group of kids who used Satan as a way to scare people. Although Ricky in his drug riddled mind thought Satan was talking to him. A friend of his stole some drugs from him, and he and another friend lured him into the woods, and brutally murdered him. The media, all too eager to capitalize on the Satanic Panic lumped heavy metal, and anyone who listened to it in with the blame for the case. In fact it was this case where the AC/DC meaning Anti Christ Devil’s Children originated from because Ricky was wearing an AC/DC shirt when her was arrested. Itsa crazy story, and we’re joined by Todd on this one.

Aubrey Love was born in a small Bible Belt town in Alabama. She was a rebel with a wild streak. As soon as she turned 18, she was on her way to Las Vegas to realize her dreams of becoming a porn star and achieving fame and fortune. It didn’t go as planned. After 2 short years of working as much as she could, and being jerked around by shady agents, she had only made $50k TOTAL, before any and all living expenses. She went back home, where she became involved with drugs and small crimes. She went to jail, where she met a boyfriend, a drug dealer’s muscle man. This relationship wound up in a love triangle, which resulted in a murder, and Aubrey went to prison. Paul and Bill have a discussion about how the porn industry actually works, and how it can lead hopeful performers to wreck and ruin, and how OnlyFans seems to have changed that.

Bill sat in on Mental Illness Theater, and Mark tells us about the botched dress rehearsal for the invasion of Normandy.

This was originally a Patreon episode. David and Sarah of the Macabre Emporium Podcast came on when Bill didn't have a cohost. And, they literally took over the episode. We had alot of fun!

Ever heard of the NorCal Rapist, Roy Charles Waller? Not many people have, including our guest, Matthew Brockmeyer from the Murder Coaster Podcast. Why?Because he isn’t a serial killer, as far as the law is concerned. But, Bill has his suspicions, which he goes over in the episode. Beginning in the early 90s, a very cunning rapist would stalk and rape women all over Northern California. He had a wife and daughter, and lived a plain and ordinary life, as he raped 9+ women, although there are probably more...as well as murders. But this story isn’t just of a very slick rapist and stalker. In it, we witness the birth of familial DNA being used in cold cases, and that, combined with very impressive police work is what brought this jerk down…..after 27 years. His last known rape was in 2006, and he was arrested in 2018. So join us on this extremely interesting case, and be sure to check out Murder Coaster wherever you get your podcasts as well!

In World War 1, the Germans perfected chemical weapons by using a bastardized version of the Haber-Bosch fertilization process that revolutionized how food was mass produced worldwide. Its still used today. It was developed by German chemist, Fritz Haber. But, when the war broke out, he found a way to weaponize it, and chemical weapons were born. Fritz Haber was dubbed the Father of Chemical Warfare, and thousands and thousands of soldiers would die as a result of its use. One battle in particular was the Battle of Osoweic Fortress, in Poland. The Russians occupied it, and the Germans wanted it due to its strategic location, and a battle broke on Aug 6, 1915. The Germans deployed the chemical weapons, and this was one of the first times it had been used. The Russians had no protection from it, and most of their battalion was wiped out. But, a group of around 100 Russian soldiers whose insides were being dissolved, charged the field in a bayonet charge. They looked like corpses running at them. The Germans thought they were zombies, and this small band of dying Russian were able to push the German battalion back, and maintain the fortress. We are joined by Kev Carlton of the Dark Windows podcast on this one. Its a very interesting story, and one that the Germans would like to forget.

There is a man on a mission. His mission isn't very clear, but he is definitely on one, and he will troll and threaten and try to ruin anyone who gets in his way. Matthew Berdyck declared war on the small town of St Joseph, Missouri because they wouldn't bow to his wishes. It all stared in a local IHOP restaurant, where he tried to be a knight in shining armor to a woman who was being assaulted in the parking lot. It didn't go how he planned. Or did it? Either way, this sparked an epic online temper tantrum of slander, threats, and double speak that would include terroristic threats from an obviously unhinged man. Facebook banned him, but later started paying him. Matthew is not in prison. Join Bill as he discusses the documentary with creator, Peter John Ross. The documentary, Social Media Monster will be released on Amazon Prime Video on May 31, 2024. Its a very well put together documentary, and a story that will blow your mind. So, check out this episode, and be sure to watch Social Media Monster when it drops on Amazon Prime Video, May 31.

Tonight, we cover “The other” Baton Rouge serial killer, Sean Gillis. And, like we were for Derrick Todd Lee, The Baton Rouge serial killer, we are once again joined by Jody Plauche. Sean was a momma’s boy from the minute he was born until he was arrested for murder, and he probably still is. This gave him a mindset that everyone owed him. He began his murder spree later in life than most serial killers, but he was one of the more grisly ones, dismembering his victims, and raping their corpses, and even eating some of it. He hooked up with a woman who had a troubled past, and had a skeleton in her closet of her own, but she was determined to turn her life around, and thought she had found the man of her dreams when she met Sean. She had no clue that he was a serial killer, and Sean did this for 10 years, killing 8 women. Its a crazy story, and Jody gives us his take on Sean, and he also tells us some facts about his own past. This was an amazing episode you don’t want to miss.

Tonight, we wrap up not only the Canada Binge, but the Willie Pickton saga as well. In this episode, we talk about how and why he was arrested, his bizarre behavior during interrogation, and the undercover officer who got him to talk in the holding cell. We also discuss the blatant ineptitude of the judge who presided over Willie’s trial, his conviction, and who may or may not have been accomplices. So join us, as we wrap up the first 4 part episode in CKCB history, and until next week, we are OUT TO LUNCH! Instagram Facebook Twitter(X) YouTube Website

Tonight, we’re bringing you part 3 of our Willie Pickton series. And, there will be a part 4, and we haven’t ruled out a part 5. But, the action gets into high gear in this episode. We talk about Willie’s close calls, the Vancouver Police Department’s total incompetent laziness, as well as people who were feeding Willie sex workers. We also talk about the outcry and backlash that came from all of the citizens over the VPD’s incompetence, as well as the thorn in their side, rock star profiler, Kim Rossmo. So, join us, and we’ll get this series done as soon as we can. And, don’t ever say that we snubbed Canada on CKCB!

Tonight, we dive into Willie Pickton Part 2. We discuss more missing women, and the Vancouver PD’s lack of caring about them. We talk about the RCMP assembling their own version of the Behavioral Science Unit, and how that plan failed. We also discuss 2 people who encountered with Willie Pickton, and lived to tell the tale. We also talk about the infamous bar that Dave Pickton built called Piggy’s Palace, and Willie’s attempts to reinvent himself. And, we also talk about 2 women who Willie was close to. One, a genuine friend, another, a con artist. So join us as we set the stage for the insane finale of the Willie Pickton saga.

Tonight, we start a 3 part series that will wrap up our 6 case Canada Binge, with part one of Willie Pickton, a sick Canadian pig farmer who confessed to killing 49 sex workers, and was also suspected of selling human meat along with the pork that his farm produced, as well as disposing some of it at a rendering plant, that meant that human flesh was in various products that use processed food. In this episode, we discuss Willie’s horrific upbringing, and warning signs that there was a serial killer in the making. We also start discussing how indigenous women in Canada were considered less important by the police, which we’ll cover at length in part 2. Willie is believed to be Canada’s worst serial killer. He was only convicted of 6 murders, but he was charged with 20 more, and there were lots more who disappeared from Vancouver’s Downtown East Side during that time frame. So, get ready. This case is a big one. Instagram Facebook Twitter(X) YouTube Website

Today, we’re continuing the Canada Binge with a crazy story from Nova Scotia. We extended the Canada Binge by one more week before we get to Willie Pickton. This week, we’re covering the Marriotts and Melvins feud. Its Canada’s modern day drug fueled version of the Hatfields and McCoys. The 2 families were both drug dealers, and they didn’t like each other. That’s basically it, although the story is crazy, and its directly tied to the Quebec Biker War. It ends with most of the key players either dead or in prison. These families have been compared to the real life Trailer Park Boys, which is actually filmed in Nova Scotia. Joining us on this episode is Morgan Rector of Human Monsters. He was a great guest, and he provided insight on some of the geography of the story. So, join us, and get ready because next week, we’ll be doing Willie Pickton part 1...If I don’t find another crazy Canadian story.

Continuing the Canada Binge, we have another collab. Krys and Jess from Moms, Wine, and True Crime join us. They're also from Canada. They're a really good new podcast that I hope will be around for a long time, and we had a blast recording this. Jennifer Pan was a 24 year old college student, whose overbearing father made her decide that her only option was to kill him. This after she lied about graduating high school, and getting into college, and getting busted in the lie. She and her boyfriend hired a group of 3 guys to carry out the hit, although nothing goes as planned, and she is busted. The wheels are falling off her story, as she digs deeper and deeper, trying to lie her way out of it.

Hey, everybody...This week’s episode was an absolutely horrific story. Canadians do their cults crazy. The first one that comes to mind is the Anthill Kids. This cult isn’t that bad, but it is in the Gertrude Baniszewski and Mother Anna’s House of Prayer level of depravity. Its called His Rest Christian Fellowship, and there is literally nothing online about it that I could find other than a 2 minute news story from when they were arrested. I found the book when I was looking for a Canadian cult to cover. This story of course has a crazy woman who thinks she’s God’s prophet, and there is lots of abuse at her hands, plus insane interpretations of the bible. There are also vulgar displays of judicial malpractice, although the police did a great job getting these people to the courtroom. It also has 2 incredibly brave kids. So, give it a listen, and tell someone about it. And this is a case of be careful what you wish for, because it was absolutely horrible. Paul and I were pissed off pretty much the entire episode. But this case needs to be better known. We are the first podcast to cover it, and I want other podcasts to cover it too. Also, I’m including the link to the book because there’s a lot that I left out.

Welcome to the second episode in our Canada Binge series. Tonight, we’re covering a surprisingly unknown case. The Quebec Biker Wars. A turf war between the Hells Angels, and rival clubs, Rock Machine and Bandidos. It also involves the Quebec Mafia. This starts off when the leaders of the Montreal Hell’s Angels chapter offed leaders of northern Hell’s Angels chapters. The Montreal leaders were sent to prison for the murders, and Montreal’s Hell’s Angels chapter was left in disarray, and had lost the respect of literally all of he other Hell’s Angels chapters. Enter Maurice Boucher, who was tasked with putting te club back together and regaining the respect of the Hell’s Angels again. He meticulously did over the years, and soon, they were a force to be reckoned with once again. A new club had sprung up from the ashes of Hell’s Angels, called Rock Machine. They were led by Salvatore Cazzetta, a former Hell’s Angels member who had defected. Cazzetta also had ties to the Quebec Mafia, so Rock Machine was protected. But, Cazzetta was arrested as a drug supplier, which left Rock Machine vulnerable. What happened next was a multi year long war that made what the NYC mafia did during prohibition seem tame by comparison. So, join us as we tell this story that is full of strategy, subterfuge, drugs, violence, politics, and Harleys! Why this story isn’t well known is beyond me, but we hope you liked this story as much as we did. Instagram Facebook Twitter(X) YouTube Website

Welcome to the CKCB Canada Binge! This is the first of at least 4 Canadian true crime cases in a row! And, joining us on this episode are Christie and Melissa of the Buried Motives Podcast! This episode is on Alan Legere, someone who could have been classified as the first incel. He had a typical rough upbringing that could be expected for any kid whose father walked out on him. But, he took it personally, like the world was conspiring against him. This attitude spilled into adulthood, where he began committing robberies, and assaults, and later, sexual assault attempts. People owed him their wealth, and women owed him sex, and he was going to take it. He committed his first murder by robbing an elderly couple. He killed the man, and sexually assaulted the woman, and thought he killed her, but she survived. He was arrested, but escaped, and for several months, he terrorized the small town of Miramichi. He robbed, and murdered, and had the town in panic, and stayed one step ahead of the police until he was finally caught, and locked away for good.

Filling in on this episode is A.B. from the incredible show, Momma Murdered A Podcast. Don't worry, Paul is coming back next week! In Lexington, SC, 1984, a 17 year old girl, Shari Smith was abducted. Nobody saw anything of use to the investigation. An extensive search began. The FBI, and John Douglass himself were on the case. And, nothing was turning up. Then, the phone calls started. A man was calling, claiming to have Shari. He began taunting the Smith family relentlessly, and they had to maintain their cool, and keep this guy on the phone as long as possible. The abductor made Shari write out a last will and testament, which he mailed to the Smiths. The calls were traced, and by the time the police got to the location, the caller was long gone. Shari's time was running out, and the taunting calls kept coming. At one point, he threatened that he would get to Shari's older sister, Dawn. He began saying incredibly sick things, making it obvious that Shari was not only dead, but that he had raped her as well. He finally gave the location as t where he had dumped Shari. About that time, 9 year old Debra Helmick was abducted. The caller continued to taunt the Smiths, and gave directions on where to find Debra's body. Finally, a break came when Shari's will was further analyzed, and the caller/killer was identified as Larry Gene Bell, a scumbag loser who John Douglass had perfectly profiled. Join us in this cat and mouse game with a sadistic killer, who turned out to be a bumbling idiot. He was sloppy, but it was rock star level police work that solved this case. Thank you, A.B. for filling in! This is an intense story, with one of the more satisfying ways that the killer was brought down. Check out Momma Murdered A Podcast. Its great!

Welcome to Episode 100! We made it! And, to celebrate, we’re covering a hippie trippy drug cult. The Source Family. A cult that began when hustler/con artist, James Baker opened a health food store in California, in the 60’s. With his money and fame from that, he discovered the grooviness of drugs, and began considering himself to be a guru. He ran those stores into the ground, and opened The Source, which was a health food restaurant. The stars of the time loved his health food restaurant. It was the place to be for A list Hollywood elites. He taught the teachings of the Age of Aquarius, and whatever else he dreamed up. He would later change his name to Father Yod, and amassed a following of over 200 people, crammed into small houses. And as time went on, he got crazier and crazier, forcing orgies on his entire clan. His own version of faith healing was the gospel as well. It became a psychedelic boot camp of sorts. He also decided he deserved multiple wives, because he was God. If there was any kind of legacy left behind, it was the music. He had a psychedelic traveling band, that made multiple albums, which are the Holy Grail to music collectors today. Run out of California due to allegations of underage liberties, he fled to Hawaii, where his life ended in one of the more creative ways for a cult leader to die. Let’s get Trippy Culty!

We’re going back down under, to cover our third Australian serial killer. Ivan Milat was an Australian serial killer who terrorized the Outback for years. He was convicted of 7 murders, although he was suspected in many more. He liked attacking backpackers, which there were always plenty of. And, most of them were foreigners, so he could get away with it. We cover his back story from his harsh upbringing which led to his crimes, as well as a very abusive husband. Also, the extremely close knit relationship he had with his siblings. They had a gang that robbed banks, and if one got caught, another would take the blame for it. This led to an exile to escape justice, although he came back, and they story continued. He didn’t just kill his victims. He tortured them for hours before killing them. He was ultimately caught, and his trial was explosive. He was almost found innocent! It would take the testimony of a tourist who survived an attack coming to Australia on his own dime to testify, combined with weapons evidence to put him away. Ivan Milat was realistically the most prolific Australian serial killer, but because he was only convicted of 7, that title goes to John Bunting, and the Snowtown and Bodies in Barrels murders, which we covered in Episode 48. Ivan was also the inspiration for the Wolf Creek horror movie franchise. There’s a lot to unpack in this episode before we get to his first murder, but keep in mind...his first murder was more like his 20th.

They had several amazing stories for Bill, and they had Bill on the edge of his seat. So, check it out! A fun time was had by all! Note...CKCB's Patreon is disabled at the moment. Paul and Bill are testing ideas to bring it back better than ever.

Tonight, we go back to the great Sunshine State. The Tampa area, to be specific, on a fairly recent case. This one is insane, and is a who dun it mystery from start to finish. Bartender and model, Sandee Rozzo was shot to death in her car, in what looked like a mob hit. There were multiple suspects, and as they were ruledout, one prime suspect remained. But, he had a rock solid alibi, which was verified by several different people. Good old fashioned police work solved this case, and despite a very good plan, the murder (or murderers?) were brought to justice. A love triangle. A pawn or two. A foolproof plan. A murder mystery. And, criminals who thought they would get away with it...if it hadn’t been for those pesky police.

Ok, we weren't living under rocks. Both Paul and I knew about how Jared from Subway got busted for messing with kids. But that's ALL we knew prior to doing this episode. We didn't know the sheer evil and depraved monster that hid behind the all American good guy image that he and Subway put in front of the cameras. We cover how he went from being extremely morbidly obese to becoming slim, rich and famous using the so called Subway diet. He was so famous that even famous people wanted to be seen with him. He was on every TV multiple times a day, and he became a very well paid and popular motivational speaker, while he and Subway laughed all the way to the bank. We also meet a courageous woman who Jared revealed his true nature to, causing her to launch a crusade to bring him down. This ruined her life. We also cover how his #1 man became an enabler, supplying Jared with all the forbidden treasures he wanted, and how this ultimately led to his downfall. He used his charity to fund his adventures. He flaunted how he was able to get away with his depravity, and if he hadn't been caught, he'd still be doing it, and who knows what it would have escalated to. Subway even tried to cover it up at first. He literally thought he was bulletproof, but luckily, he was taken down. So, join us. Grab a soda and a Jersey Mikes, or Firehouse Sub or a Pub Sub. Anything but a Subway sub, and get ready for an intense episode about one of the sickest pukes we've ever covered. But, there are palate cleansers along the way to lighten the mood, and we are able to ridicule him. Instagram Facebook Twitter (X) YouTube Website CKCB Discussion Pub FB Group

Just a little bit of info to get you to listen to our true crime comedy podcast. Welcome!

Tonight, we wrap up the BTK Reboot series with part 3. We cover his last 2 murders, Vicki Wegerle, and Doris Davis. We also go much deeper into Factor X, and his delusions, and we cover his decades long hiatus, as well as what happened that baited him back onto the scene, the idiotic puzzles and boxes he sent to the police, more letters for Paul to struggle through, his obsession with three, and other serial killers, his wannabe book, and a little piece of technology that would lead to his totally comedic downfall, and finally, his confession, trial, imprisonment, and a possible account of some ‘Karenesque’ misbehaving in prison. We also cover 2 of the murders that Dennis is strongly suspected in, and whether or not we think he is guilty of them. And, as promised, the Dennis Rader Haikus, spelled H-Y-K-O-O in 3-6-3 format. In the end, Dennis Rader got what he wanted. National infamy. But, he didn’t get it how he wanted. Towards the end, he began to realize that whether he got caught or not, people would know that Dennis Rader was BTK. So, did he hit the big time? Is he worthy to sit with the other heavy hitter serial killers at the Big Kids Table? Or, should I say Big Table Kids?

Yes, I know I spelled Botulism wrong! But, it will make sense when you hear the episode, I promise. In part 2 of the reboot, we pick up right where we left off in part one, since we kind of left you on a cliffhanger. We also cover Dennis's next 2 murders, Nancy Fox and Vicki Wegerle. We also get into more of his madness, and utter stupidity when it comes to his crimes. Paul also suffers through more of his letters and poetry, and Bill analyzes his obsession with the other serial killers that he plagiarized. We also rip him to shreds, and laugh at his expense throughout the episode. So, enjoy! We sure as hell did!

Tonight, we dive into part one of the BTK reboot. We swore we’d never redo BTK, but we’d been thinking about it, and teasing it. So now, here we are. The original horrible series was 2 parts. This one will be 3 parts. In part one, we discuss Dennis Rader’s childhood, into adult life, as well as his inspirations to become a killer and his sick fantasies. Factor X is also discussed. We get to his first 2 murders in part 1. And, if that wasn't enough, we cover his first communications to the newspaper, when he first starts fishing for attention. Paul has the misfortune of reading those letters.  Finally, we wrap part 1 up by discussing his movements in between his second and third murders.  So, join us! If you listened to the original series, you'll be pleasantly surprised when you listen to this new series. And, if you did listen to those 2 original god awful episodes...I'm sorry!

Wayne Adam Ford. POS from California. Guest host, Matthew from Murder CoasterHe was a former Marine who murdered 4 women from 1997-1998.

But, he was freakishly obsessed with boobs. He also kept human meat in his freezer, as well as rendered human fat. But what happened when he turned himself in shocked everyone, and it was something that is rare with serial killers. So, check it out! Murder Coaster Twitter(X) Instagram Facebook YouTube Website

Back in May, 2023, we did a potpourri episode, called The Last Meal.

You awesome listeners really dug in and ate that episode up! Now, Paul and Bill are back for a second helping! (See what I did there?) And, they go back and forth, swapping the stories. Part one had a case that wound up being covered on its own episode. 'Mad Dog' Marion Albert Pruett. And what a crazy episode that was.

Suzan Bear believed she was a godly entity who was thousands of years old, and was sent by God to usher in the end times. She was to create an army of soldiers to rid the world of witches. She was part of the hippie counter culture, and constantly on drugs. She found Michael, a name she chose for him, saying that Allah told her that Michael was his true name. Michel, as in the archangel. They followed a constantly changing skewed version of Islam that changed whenever they needed to justify something. If you disagreed with Suzan on anything, you were a witch, and that was when they started committing murder. A wild case for sure. The YouTube page is now active. The entire catalog is there, and starting with this episode, all future episodes will have videos. Instagram Facebook Twitter(X) YouTube Patreon Website

Got a treat for you tonight! Jody Plauche joins Bill to cover the twisted serial killer and rapist, Derrick Todd Lee. He comes from Jody's hometown, and he requested this case for us to cover. We cover Lee's childhood and his obsession as a peeping tom, even before hitting puberty. As a teen, he escalates into assault and even more peeping, and burglary. He gets married and has kids, and gets a mistress, but he's still peeping, which later leads to rape and murder. He's also abusive to both his wife and mistress. He would study his victims for weeks before making the kill. And he even did some comically stupid things as well like asking a woman whose home he breaks into out on a date, and even gives her his phone number. We also cover the one detective who had this case figured out spot on, 100%, despite a task force telling him he was wrong. This case is wild from start to finish, and Jody was great as a cohost!

But, he's gay. So when Marge's husband dies, Bernie handles the funeral, and the 2 become very good friends. Or do they? Marge is taking Bernie on trips all over the world, and even makes him the sole beneficiary in her will. remember, her family hates her. So, she goes missing. and that's where the insanity starts.

Peter Kurten was born in 1883, the oldest of 13 kids in a 1 bedroom apartment, with a super abusive prick for a father. He would force his kids to watch him abuse and rape their mother, then he began abusing the kids, especially Peter. Peter killed 2 of his classmates, and was taken in by a creepy dog catcher who molested him, and taught him how to torture animal His father then escalated to raping Peter's younger sister. His mom caught him in the act, and he was arrested. Peter picked up where his father left off, also raping his sister. His mother caught him, and he bolted. He began breaking and entering, and raping women, but was caught. He wound up joining the army but deserted. He then began killing women, and would do prison time again. After that, he went back to his sister, who reluctantly took him because her husband insisted. He then met a woman with a checkered past that he could relate to, and they were then married. Part 2 gets really brutal. Be sure to check out Murder Coaster! Instagram Facebook Twitter(X) Patreon Website

Joining us on this episode, we have the OG Patreon Subscriber, Ariana! She is studying Criminal Justice to be a detective in college, and we wish her the best! She also picked this episode. Todd and Amy Mullis were pig farmers in Iowa. They did not have a happy marriage and Amy had 2 affairs, which Todd knew about. One day, Amy is found by her son, Trystan, with a corn rake sticking out of her back. Her husband, Todd and their son, Trystan rush Amy to the hospital, after Todd removed the rake from Amy's back. On the way, Todd calls 911. Amy is pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital, but her death is ruled a homicide. This was a very divisive case, with some people saying Todd is guilty, and some saying he was innocent. Join us as we cover this crazy story, as well as both sides of the debate. Dick Darwin weighs in as well. Thanks, Ariana for subscribing to Patreon, and for suggesting this case, and hanging with us when we recorded it. Instagram Facebook Twitter(X) Patreon Website

This is a special episode. In episode 80, we covered Gary Plauche and how he killed Jeff Doucet, who had abused his son, Jody and kidnapped him. Click here and listen to episode 80 first if you haven't yet. In this episode, we interview Gary's son, Jody who was the survivor of the abuse. We talk about the nuts and bolts of the case, and the aftermath. We also talk about Jody's advocacy work, and even some lighthearted stuff. Jody does a pretty good John Walsh voice, as well as Barack Obama and even Bill Belichick. It was a very fun interview, and Jody is extremely cool. We were honored to have him on with us!

The wheels on the bus are coming off as a rock star detective sets his sites on Lou, knowing that something was off about him. He is determined to see this through till the end. We examine Lou's hold on his followers, and the body count increases. We cover the police work that led to the fall of Angels Landing, with the help of 2 of his victims, and a remarkable man who came into the life of one of them.

Doris and Cecil Babcock lived together in Dunnelon, FL. Cecil was an over the toad truck driver, and one day, he was unable to reach Doris on the phone. He was in Kentucky, and was freaking out. He called his daughters, and they couldn't reach Doris either. He called the police. An officer showed up and found Zach Snyder in the house. He was a 19 year old that they had taken in, but he had just moved into his own place. Doris was dead, and we get to see a rock star of a cop grill an idiot who thinks he's a genius. My favorite cases to cover. Instagram Twitter(X) Facebook Patreon Website

Lou Castro (Real name, Daniel Perez) was a con man, and he was really good at it. Before too long into adulthood, he began concocting an unbelievable story that would rope in the unsuspecting and people who were at the end of their rope. He began telling people that he was an angel, and that he was 1000 years old...Or several thousand years old...Or, that he had powers to see into the future and prophecy when people would die. He could also raise the dead. He could also bring people back from the dead. He himself had come back to life. Whatever he needed the story to be was what it was, and his small group of cultists believed every word of it. But, he needed money, and lots of it. So, he talked his members into taking out huge life insurance policies on themselves, and then they would die, and Lou got all the money. He had a compound in Kansas, nice cars, and he and everyone else were living large. He also convinced them that he had to have sex with as many young girls as possible, so he could continue to be immortal. This guy was a total douchebag Instagram Twitter(X) Facebook Patreon Website

In 1978, inmates, Gary Tison and Randy Greenwaldt broke out of an Arizona prison with the assistance of Gary's 3 sons. They then went on a killing spree in an attempt to get to Mexico, where they thought they'd be safe. This story has one of the most satisfying endings of the main bad guy that we've ever covered. We cover Gary and Randy's back stories, leading up to the prison break, and let's just say that nobody ever accused these chuckleheads of being smart. This episode has everything you could want in an insanely funny true crime story. Stupid criminals, bad police work, Prison Tinder, and so much more. So, grab a beer and get ready to laugh and shake your head in disbelief. Instagram Twitter(X) Facebook Patreon Website

Ever talk with friends about killing people who mess with kids? Of course you have. But, Gary Plauche actually did. When his son was groomed for a year by a so called friend of the family, and then kidnapped, Gary took matters into his own hands, shooting the abuser in the head in a Baton Rouge airport...And it was all captured on camera by a TV news crew. Join us as we tell the story of a father's rage because some piece of shit hurt his son. Did he get what was coming to him? Or is Gary a murderer? You decide. Jody Plauche, Gary's son wrote a book about his dad and his story called "Why Gary Why: The Jody Plauche Story" You can get a copy of it here And this is Jody's website And in a completely unrelated topic, we introduce you to Cassidy Collins. A brilliant young lady who is working on an 8 episode stand alone podcast about the Faith Assembly cult (The one Bill was raised in) She found out that her mother was in the cult, and she began looking for answers, which led her to our episodes 10 and 11.

Ok, after 6 hours of Panzram, we're going to switch gears, and have a shorter episode. During the Nazi occupation of France in WW2, Dr. Marcel Petiot hatched a scheme to get rich quick. He pretended to be with the French Resistance, and set up an operation where he would get Jews out of occupied France to safety. But he didn't do that. He just killed them, and stole everything they had. We cover his troubling childhood, his criminal practices and scams in politics, as well as his most sinister scheme, as well as his downfall.

Here we are, wrapping up our first ever 3 part series. Let us know what you thought! In the conclusion, Carl really goes off the deep end, and begins his documented raping tour. This would take him all the way to Africa, where he couldn't help himself. He wore out his welcome there, and in the process, raped and killed a boy, and then 6 men in 12 hours. He wanted to get back to the US, and finally, after a comedy of errors, he makes it. Back in the US, he continues his crime spree, but also shows traces of being human when he found a boyfriend, who later betrays him. He comes unglued, and finally decides it was time to start his dream of domestic terror attacks, but winds up getting arrested for the last time, and his past comes back to haunt him. He's ultimately hung, and with that, the story of one of the most brutal and prolific serial killers comes to an end. Instagram Facebook Twitter(X) Discord Patreon Website

Carl is released from Leavenworth, and begins a cross country raping, robbing, and (more than likely) murder spree. He is still being brutalized repeatedly, and with every assault, a little more of his humanity is stripped away. The monster is being groomed, but hasn't fully matured. We'll get there in part 3 though, don't worry. Part 1 came 2 days early because we were getting ready for and going to Crimecon. Part 2 is coming 1 day early because tomorrow night, we're recording part 3 and its going to be the longest episode in the series. Part 3 will come out next Friday night as usual. We had a great time at Crimecon, and we tell you about that too. And, we partied with True Crime Kent and their listeners on both Friday and Saturday night. Coolest and most genuine guys.

You're getting this a couple days early because Crimecon is coming up, and we're going to be there. This is part 1 of our first 3 part series. In Part 1, we discuss Carl's harsh childhood, where he was conditioned at home to become the monster that survived everything that came his way. Slave labor and sleep deprivation on his family's farm as a boy toughened him up. His father did a botched home ear surgery that may have damaged his brain. He began getting violent, learning to fight, and got sent to reform school, which was more like a torture compound, run by a sadistic religious pedophile. He takes to the railways, and endures even more abuse. He joins the Army, and winds up in Leavenworth, and when he leaves, he is a well built mass of muscle and hatred. At 6'5" and nothing but muscle and hatred, and a belief that man on boy rape must be normal because everyone was doing it to him, he is released from Leavenworth, ready to make the entire human race pay for the horror that he was subjected to his entire life. When he's released, he is only 19 years old. This part 1 is as long as some of our one part episodes, and we still have 2 to go. So, grab a beer and join us!

John Robinson was SCUM. He only cared about himself, and literally nobody else at all. Not even his own family. Early in his adult life, he scammed anyone he could. Blatant and ballsy scams. But soon, he gravitated toward murder. But, this was still scam based. He would hire women to work at his fake business, and kill them, and have their money sent to him. Later, he discovered the internet, and chat rooms. He was very much into BDSM, but he didn't believe in safe words. He would constantly have unsuspecting women come to him to be his sex slave. Some would never be seen again. The police work in this case is brilliant, and there is a MAJOR twist at the end. We had fun with this story, and we hope you had fun listening to it.

Just a little info about your new favorite true crime comedy podcast

Sorry about the confusion. We uploaded the unedited file accidentally! Its fixed now! We have a special one for you tonight. 16 year old Nora Ashleigh was taken from her bedroom at 3AM and taken into the wastelands of Utah, where she was abused and subjected to all types of cruelty, and even torture. She endured this for 2 years until she finally escaped, and never looked back. But this wasn't a kidnapping or human trafficking incident. This was done at the request of her own parents. The people who took her were part of a goon squad, that worked for the Troubled Teen Industry. Isolation camps used to reeducate teens with issues. Issues in most cases that were the result of bad or lazy parenting. And, this is all 100% legal, and in many cases backed by the government. Many politicians and celebrities have dumped their teenage children off on these legalized gulags. This is a multi million dollar industry, that still exists right now, and it isn't going away any time soon. Now 36 years old, Nora has taken the fight to them, and has become an activist against these organizations, whose practices would be shut down if it was a cult, or a far right militia camp or religious fundamentalist group. Hundreds of deaths are on the hands of these groups, yet the victims get swept away, and not one of them has been held accountable. Part one is Nora's personal experience at the hands of these sadists. Part two is her escape, and all she and other survivors are doing to raise awareness.

In this episode, we have a 29 year old mother with 6 kids, and is pregnant with her 7th. She has custody of none of them, other than the one she was carrying. She got her youngest, 18 month old Ryan back for ONE DAY, and she stomped him to death. Then, the lies begin, and the sob story, along with probably the most pathetic request from a defense attorney that I've ever heard. This is another listener requested episode, who also had inside information. This listener knew Stacey and her boyfriend personally, and gives another side of the story. Also, Todd had major connection issues on his end. So, at the last minute, we were bailed out by Nora Ashleigh, who you will meet personally in the next 2 CKCB full length episodes. She is a survivor of the Troubled Teen Industry, turned activist against these predatory groups, or cults. She did an amazing job filling in for Todd, and we thank her.

Now, we premiere our new series, Half Pint Episodes. Episodes without enough information to make a 90+ minute episode, but still a compelling story, or even unsolved cases. In this one, we cover rapist and murderer, Lester Eubanks. In a small town in Ohio, a rapist was stalking women. He had been arrested for one rape, and was released just 2 weeks prior to committing his first known murder. He was arrested and sentenced to death. End of the story? Nope. Craziness ensues, and Dick Darwin makes his second CKCB appearance. Twitter (X) Facebook Patreon Website Discord

In 1996, William Reece was released from prison in Oklahoma for a kidnapping and rape that he had been convicted of in 1986. Not missing a beat, he killed 4 women that we know of, 2 in Texas, 2 in Oklahoma, including a 12 year old girl. This is one where I am sure there are more victims. He had kidnapped and was going to kill and rape another woman, but she escaped. He was sentenced to life in prison for this one, but the 4 murders were unsolved. But, in 2015, DNA linked him to the murders. He confessed to murder, but not rape, and his excuses and lies are comedy gold. He was tried for them in Texas, and was given life. But Oklahoma wanted the death penalty. Did they get it? Grab a beer and find out! We now have a Patreon page AND Discord. Check them out!

In 1990, Danny Rolling rolled into Gainesville FL with one purpose in mind...To kill a bunch of University of Florida students, and to be infamous like Ted Bundy. He killed 5 people over a few days, then was caught, trying to rob a Winn Dixie (Wood Duckie) grocery store. Another man was initially arrested for the murders, but the truth was discovered thanks to a house wife from his hometown of Shreveport, LA, where he had already killed 3 people. He had a horrible childhood, which fueled the monster that he became. His courtroom antics at his trial are comedy gold. He and a journalist, Sondra London, a known serial killer groupie began communicating and supposedly fell in love. She wrote his book for him. Danny was also a guitarist and singer.

This episode is based on the incredibly insane story portrayed in Netflix's 'The Girl In The Picture' documentary. It tells the story of a young woman left for dead on a highway, her creepy and much older husband, and her young son. When she died in the hospital, a mystery arose. Who in the hell were these people? This story spans multiple states, and in the end, after an intense and confusing roller coaster ride, we have the complete story of a serial killer/rapist/kidnapper/child molester who got away with it for a very long time. But, ultimately, a rock star FBI agent, a true crime author, a missing persons advocate, and 2 more rock star FBI agents blew the lid off of this, and brought justice to the victims, and got this puke put away. This is one of the craziest stories I've ever heard. Patreon Twitter(X) Facebook Website

David Carpenter had a hard childhood. An abusive set of parents. And to top it all off, his mother made him take ballet class. He grew up to be a sadistic serial rapist and serial killer. He was convicted of 8 murders, and suspected of 2 others. But, I'm convinced there are more. Many more. His first murder was at 49 years old, and he had attempted murder many years before that. His victims were along the mountain trails in California, where he had easy pickings, and seclusion. He started off making bonehead mistakes. Many of them, any one of which would have gotten other serial killers caught. But, he learned from each mistake, and improved his technique. However, the murder that took him down, he made a whopper of a mistake. He was convicted, and sent to Death Row, and at 97 years old, he is the oldest person on California's Death Row.

We're releasing this one a few days early! This is our first unsolved case. Its unsolved, but it is intense, and full of police negligence. Its maddening at times. Catherine Mowrey was murdered in June of 1985 in Dallas, TX. She was found in the trunk of a car, wrapped in a blanket burrito style, with a belt tightly around her neck. The police ruled it a drug overdose, or accidental death, even a suicide. In 1993, Catherine's sister, Jo-Ann was also murdered, but that case was solved. Years later, the youngest sister, Deborah found out that the Dallas Police Department had literally done nothing towards solving this case. The went into serious depression, and unfortunately, ended her own life as a result of her depression. Deborah's daughter, Catrina Marshall, who was named after Catherine, who went by Catrina took the case. She is spreading awareness everywhere, and holding DPD's feet to the fire. Her message is clear: SOLVE THE CASE!!! She has made several things happen by doing this. I believe the case is close to being solved. Justice for her aunt, and especially, justice for her mother, whose life ended as a result of depression over the ineptness of DPD.

We're going historical on you for the first time! We're covering the USS Indianapolis, which was the ship that delivered the components for the 'Little Boy' atomic bomb that would be dropped on Hiroshima, during World War II. After making its delivery, it was torpedoed by a Japanese sub and sunk. The mission was so top secret, that nobody even knew the ship was missing. Sailors were in the brutal pacific ocean, starving, being baked to death by the sun, and being dried out by the unforgiving salt water...And, eaten by sharks. It would be 5 days before they were rescued. After the rescue, the US Navy was desperate to not have egg on their face, so the captain was court marshaled in a kangaroo court, and found guilty. This led to him being demonized and he ultimately committed suicide, leaving the crew members with another war to fight. Captain McVay had done nothing wrong, and he was given bogus intelligence as well. The crew members took on the government to clear Captain McVay's name.

In the first one, we cover the life and rise of one of the mafia's most ruthless and feared hit men, Sammy 'The Bull' Gravano, who orchestrated the hit on Gambino boss, Frank Castellano, resulting in John Gotti taking over, which leads to Sammy defecting, and turning rat for the government, in exchange for a deal that brought down the mafia as a whole. We also cover his childhood, and how he rose to be the #2 man in the Gambino family, only to burn it to the ground. Sammy then joins the witness protection program, and ships out to Arizona where he doesn't stay hidden very long. He writes a book, does interviews, almost gets whacked by the Gambinos, but winds up getting arrested and serving 20 years. Why? Listen to find out. This was a fun episode.

Audio alert: We were trying something new, and Todd accidentally had a compressor going. Its not bad, but its noticeable. Brian Trimble had it all. He had a great job, and a fiancé who adored him. He also had MS though. He and his fiancé, Randi were married in a beautiful storybook wedding. But as they began their married life, Brian began feeling sheltered because his wife, Randi was as he put it over protective of him due to his MS. He became close with a coworker, Blaine Norris, who had dreams of becoming a horror movie director, and he had a script for a movie, and was determined to film it. But, he needed money, which Brian had. Randi put the brakes on it, saying that the money they had in the bank was a nest egg in case Brian's MS ever got bad to the point he wouldn't be able to work. She also forbade Brian from even being involved with the movie because the location had no cell service. Blaine then went into serious debt for the movie, which cost him his marriage. Brian became angry, and Blaine needed money. The two hatched a plan that wound up being proof that you don't want to combine horror movie lore with reality. Join us for this fucked up story. NOTE: The opening of this episode spoofs the intro of the podcast, Dark Topic. We love that podcast and we did it as a tribute of respect. Facebook Twitter Website that needs to be updated lol

Another guest on the show, and another cult! We're covering Heaven's Gate, the Crazy Comet Cult. We discuss Marshall Applewhite and Bonnie Nettle's background, and how they took this from a crazy idea to a legit cult that had close to 50 people when it ended. It ended of course, when the majority of the cult all committed suicide to advance to "The Next Level" which was a planet where they would live for eternity in an existence devoid of personality, feelings, and sex. These people bought in 100% to the teachings, believing that Applewhite and Nettles were the second coming of Jesus Christ, who had the tickets to leave Earth and go away in a spaceship to a better eternity, and that the only way to get there was to off yourself. Castrations not withstanding. We're joined by Dr Paul Meckes of the Conscious Radio Network, and their podcast, The Weekly Séance, on YouTube, Spotify, and all other platforms.

I got it WRONG! Nichole Kessinger was NOT the duped victim I thought she was. I was confusing her with someone else, possibly Amber Frey who really was duped. Sorry, and just know that if I ever get something this wrong in the future, I'll man up to it like I did here. Thanks for listening. -Bill

We closed the Last Meal episode with this chucklehead. And, we said that the episode was "Soon" and maybe even next week. Well, here we are. Covering the cut rate Pee Wee Gaskins. You got an overview of him in The Last Meal episode. But, here's the whole story. We cover his meager upbringing to his involvement in crime, to his prison sentence, how he got out of it, and how he went on a nation wide trek across the US from Tallahassee to Seattle, robbing and killing all the way. The worst part of all of this is that he really did get a reset button, and he wasted it. And, witness protection really got put under the microscope as a result of this clown. Bill is joined by Mark from Mental IIlness Theater, who fills in for Todd. Twitter Facebook Website

We discuss the Yips, which is a condition where someone inexplicably loses the ability to do something that they are proficient at. There are sports stories, crime stories, and even a story about a Nicaraguan president who literally drained his people's blood to sell it to other countries after a devastating earthquake. This leads to the death of a Major League Baseball legend, who was trying to help. We had fun on this episode, so check out this clip, then go listen to the entire episode by clicking here.

What can we say? This is the most brutal and disturbing case we've covered. There's only one victim, but she was put through immense amounts of hell and torture. Gertrude, AKA Satan had a traumatic childhood that effected her for the rest of her life. She took in 2 sisters, a teenager and a kid, whose parents were traveling for work. What she did to the older of the two girls is horrific, but she also got multiple neighborhood kids in on this sick train of abuse. Not to mention, her own kids who were also active participants. This is the type of horror movie script where in the movies, the victim comes back and kills everyone. Sadly, that's not what happened here. Its brutal, disturbing and heartbreaking. Todd tapped out in the episode, and Bill was coming close. Don't listen with kids around, please. Twitter Facebook Instagram Website

Here we are again with the conclusion of our thrashing of this pedophile scumbag cult leader. In this episode, we discuss his cross country run from the FBI, and his hypocritical activities that he indulged in along the way. His reasoning? He was learning about the evil world so he could better protect his followers. We also cover his arrest and trials, as well as his hilarious desperate attempt to maintain control of the cult while behind bars. Follow us on social media, and say hi!

Today, we start a 2 part episode on Warren Jeffs and the Fundamental Church of Latter Day Saints cult. An off shoot from the Mormon church that occurred when the Mormons banned multiple wives. Warren's father, Rulon Jeffs became the prophet, and Warren was the heir apparent. Rulon made him the principal of a FLDS school, where Warren began crafting his warped view of Mormonism, and indoctrinating the students. When Rulon died, Warren assumed the role of prophet, and not only amped up the multiple wives, he also brought in child brides, and began trafficking young girls to creepy bootlicker men in the cult. He also instituted a set of the most draconian laws imaginable. Women were nothing more than breeding stock. Join us as we destroy this creep. Its a very rough story, but we get through it by brutally mocking Warren. Part 2 comes next Saturday. Twitter Facebook Instagram Website

This episode was a blast! We went back to Episode 3 and the story of Florida spree killer, William Cruse...who wants you to know he isn't gay. We're not redoing it. In the episode, we mentioned a Florida band called Dead Serios had written a song called' I Wanna Force Feed William Cruse.' We're joined in studio by the man, the myth, the legend himself, DL Serios. Why, you might ask? Because his song led to his indirect tie to yet another crazy Florida crime. You won't hear this story ANYWHERE else. Bill kicks it off to set the tone with DL by telling a crazy Florida crime story. Then, DL takes over, and enlightens us with not only the story, but a history of the band, and their crazy antics. Its riveting, and you will hang on his every word. But, everything he says is relevant to the crime story because it lets you know just who DL is. It even has a tie to the band, Poison. It also gives you an insight to Bill and Todd's past. Don't miss this one. DL is also an author. He has 4 published books. He also has a very entertaining blog. And his latest solo album is here.

EPISODE 50!!!!! YAAAAYYYY!!!!! In the 1930's, over farming caused a major ecological disaster in the Great Plains area of the United States. It started in Texas, Kansas, New Mexico, Colorado and Oklahoma. But the resulting cloud went all over the country, and even into Canada. You can Google 'The Dust Bowl' for a deep dive on it, and its a good read. We do a decent nutshell version of the story in the episode. BUT, there is a story that was lost under a cloud of dust. A spree killer who used the dust storms to commit his murders in complete secrecy because everyone was inside, taking shelter from the storm. Thadius Morton, a WWI veteran who had suffered head injuries in the war, and was likely exposed to chemical weapons. After the war, he married, had twins, one twin died, and that sent him over the edge into a paranoid rage that resulted in 7 people being killed in 24 hours. This rampage was glossed over due to the world wide story of the Dust Bowl. Join us as we tell this crazy but unknown story. Twitter Facebook Instagram Our website

Great episode, people! In our first CKCB interview with both Bill and Todd together, we talked with Vic Ferrari, a retired NYC detective who worked on organized crime cases, stolen vehicles, and lots of other things. He worked under 3 different NYC mayors, and has seen a lot of shit. So, when he retired, the next logical step was to start writing about the crazy things that he saw while in the line of duty. And believe me when I say he's seen a shitload of crazy. But, he puts a comedic spin on the stories, which makes his 6 books extremely entertaining to read, and he shares some of the stories with us. We have a new friend. This episode was a blast! Click here to buy Vic's books. You owe it to yourself. Vic's Twitter Vic's Facebook Click here for our website Twitter Facebook Note: In this episode, we mention that this was episode 50 and Henry Lee Lucas was 49. But, CKCB curses struck again, and we have to redo Henry Lee Lucas. Just mentioning this for clarity, but you all know chaos reigns supreme on CKCB.

Australian serial killers don't screw around. They go big and bold, usually with high body counts. And, they're particularly gruesome. This week, we're covering John Bunting. A racist and homophobic prick who pretended to be a a vigilante, supposedly killing pedophiles, when what he was really doing was labeling people as a pedophile, killing them, and diverting their government money to him. He would then store the bodies in acid filled barrels. He also had a crew helping him. These are also known as the Snowtown Murders. Join us as we cover his horrific upbringing, and his meeting with a mentor who would shape him into the monster that he became. This is a rough one. Click here for our website.

Yeah, we went there. We're covering the homeless and murderous Pauly Shore clone, Kai, the Hatchet Wielding Hitchhiker. The man who in 2013 went viral for rescuing a woman from a man who he had hitched a ride from. The man intentionally slammed his car into a utility vehicle, pinning the driver of the utility vehicle in between the 2 vehicles. When people tried to help him, he attacked one of them, and Kai became an internet sensation after he beat this jerk with a hatchet. Everybody wanted to interview him. Reality show producers wanted to  give him his own show. He appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel show. But, this guy wasn't all there, and had an attention span that lasted less time than a punk rock song. And, Kai wasn't the hero that he was made out to be. Join us as we tell this story of unwarranted celebrity worship, and the consequences that can accompany it.  Website Twitter Facebook Instagram Email: [email protected]

We have a doozy for you today. A teenage sex cult, run by pedophile Mexican music producer, Sergio Andrade, and his biggest star, Gloria Trevi. Sergio was VERY good at developing female pop acts in Mexico. He had several platinum artists under his belt, and he was very well respected. Everything he touched turned to gold platinum. He was a gifted musician, and producer, and he had a knack for finding every client’s individual strong spot, and he would bring this out in them. His record speaks for itself. But, if that’s all he did, he wouldn’t be featured on CKCB. He had a taste for underage girls, and married one of his acts. He was also an abusive tyrant prick. But once he discovered Gloria Trevi, and she became Mexico’s top selling pop act of all time, he used his resume to entice many more young girls into his clutches, under the promise that he would “make them a star!” Before too long, he had a harem of girls that he was physically and sexually abusing, and he became the target of an international manhunt. One of his ‘clients’ who got the hell away from him was instrumental in bringing him down. Her courage is very admirable. Join us as we tell this riveting and unbelievable story.

This is a special series where Bill interviews people who have survived horrific things like a cult, murder attempt, abusive relationship, or anything.  AUDIO ALERT! There are parts where you will hear a slight echo on Bill. It is a little annoying, but doesn't get too bad. In this episode, Bill speaks with Jeara who was roped in by a complete narcissist, who abused her for almost 15 years. She tells us how she allowed herself to be dominated by this scumbag, and how she finally had enough and got the hell out. Its a horrific story, but inspiring at the end.

Well, we're loading up the CAMPER VAN, and going back to Scotland. We haven't been there in a while, but we're covering Peter Tobin. A vagabond serial killer with a thing for young women and girls. He moved around so much that he was hard to catch. He was only convicted of 3 murders, but he is (strongly) suspected of many more. He was also suspected of being Bible John, the Scottish serial killer whose case is unsolved, and authorities still have no clue as to his identity. Tobin was a sick and demented man who confessed to 48 murders, but only did it to taunt authorities. We'll never know how many people he actually killed, but there are quite a few that we're 99.7% sure that he did. We go over those, as well as the ones we know he did, as well as his abusive life story. And, Bill learns how to roll his R's in this one! Click here for our website.

Yeah, this one is intense. We explore the childhood into adulthood of Texas Tower Sniper, Charles Whitman who camped out oat the top of the clock tower at the University of Texas, Austin, and opened fire on anything that moved for over 2 hours. The warning signs of his mental state deteriorating were there. Charles even knew it, but he ignored it, and the result was the worst mass shooting that had ever happened in the US at the time. We cover all of it, from start to finish, and it got to be a little much toward the end. But, we got through it. So, buckle up and get ready to take a journey into the mind of a psycho who believed that everyone else was to blame for his failures, resulting in a horrific tragedy. Whew! Check out our website.

Just when you think you've heard it all, you find out that there are French wine terrorists. Yes, you read that right. In 2006, CRAV, a group of French wine makers and purists who had been protesting the EU laws on wine trade upped their game and began attacking stores distribution centers, and chateaus that were using imported wine, and cheap domestic wine. These rules were cheapening the product in favor of imports and exports, taking away from the quality of genuine domestic French wine. The French are SERIOUS about their domestic wine, so they declared war to the point that millions of gallons of imported wine flooded the streets of France. They are listed as a terrorist group, and they even attracted the attention of Muammar Ghaddafi, who wanted to arm them in their fight against the French government. Join Bill and Todd on this interesting/unbelievable story, which they find a way to make it hilarious. Mark from Mental Illness Theater even contributes a hilarious piece of spoken word theater.

Wow, people! This episode was by far the worst cult we've covered. And, it happened in our home state of Florida. This is a relatively unknown case as well.  The cult has most of the boxes checked to identify a religious cult. But, it has a twist. The cult leader is a woman. She unleashed hell on her followers, who believed that she was literally God. Its a brutal story, and this bitch got what she deserved in the end. So, buckle up! Its a bad one. NOTE: We were supposed to have Wayne from the Florida Men on Florida Man podcast with us. There were technical difficulties and it wasn't able to happen.

In this episode Bill and Todd tackle Christopher Worrell and James Miller who committed one of the worst serial killing sprees in Australian history. James was a gay older man, and Chris was a very good looking younger man. But, Chris was straight, and he used James' feelings for him to manipulate him into doing whatever he wanted whenever he wanted. Specifically, being his accomplice in the brutal rapes and murders of 7 women in a 2 year period in the late 70s. Chris was a complete narcissist and manipulator. He controlled James, and had him so brainwashed that James would never dream of betraying him. James believed that one day, the two of them would be an item, and that made him go along with every sick and twisted thing that he did. Click here for our website.

Its a palate cleanser episode. We gave you 5 super dark episodes, so we figured we'd give you a super fun one, and this delivers. Bone Mizell was a man's man. He led huge cattle herds as a kid. He lived on both sides of the law, and when he did get busted, he would get out of it with his quick wit. He made his living, and he lived well because he was one of the best cowboys ever to walk the planet. He loved to pull jokes on people, and he loved to drink. He was also a ladies man. Bone was the man who the term 'Florida Cracker' was named after because Bone was so skilled with a whip. I'm not going to tell you anymore about him. Click play on the episode.

This is a bizarre case. It takes place mainly in the Czech Republic, in 2007, but it bounces around in a weird game of cat and mouse. It was the biggest story in that part of the world for a very long time, as new wrinkles came to light. It has child abuse, obscure cults, cannibalism, and a girl who was sex trafficked, rescued, then vanished. But, things aren't always what they seem. Or, are they? This story begins when a video baby monitor being used by new parents picked up a stray signal from a similar device nearby. It showed a small naked boy, lying bound on the bare floor of a dark room with no windows. The new father called police, and the events that happened next over a few months are the most peculiar things you've ever heard, with one of the craziest endings of any true crime story.  Join us as we take you on this roller coaster ride of a case.

Well, we did it. 4 serial killers in 4 weeks. We wrap it up with the gay potato man, Ronald Dominique. This puke had a very high body count for a lesser known serial killer. He preyed mostly on impoverished black men from New Orleans and the surrounding parishes. Between 1997 and 2006, he murdered at least 23 people, by luring them to their demise with promises of sex, money, alcohol, drugs, or even sex with "An attractive white woman" whom he had a picture of, which happened to be a picture of his niece. He was definitely one of the worst, but this story also comes with a twist. CKCB Host, Bill had an encounter with Ron in New Orleans in 2000, and he tells that story as well.  We are joined by Mark, the host of Mental Illness Theater, and together, the 3 of us rip this douchebag a new asshole. And that is especially bad for Ron since his own asshole was broken.  Check out Mental Illness Theater. If you like CKCB, you'll like them.

Merry Christmas, everyone! Have a serial killer story to open presents to ! In what turned out to be an absolutely hilarious episode, we discuss the Norwegian turned American female serial killer from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. We talk about her upbringing, her move to the US, and how she ended up killing multiple men and her children for life insurance money, and just to flat out rob them. She would lure men to her farm and their doom, promising to combine fortunes, and marry to become some sort of a power couple. They would leave everything to come to be with her, but as soon as she got all their money, they would vanish. Then one day, she vanished and was (stupidly) presumed to be dead after a fire in her home.  Our Norwegian friend, Flaccid Jizless, the Black metal tambourine man (From episode 14, the Black Metal episode) makes an appearance. Join us as we ruthlessly ridicule Belle and the completely incompetent law enforcement, coroner, and judicial system that investigated her "death." Click here for our website.

Another serial killer for you. In this episode, we go to South Carolina and talk about the vertically challenged, Pee Wee Gaskins. He was a confession killer, who boasted murdering more than 100 people, but he is only credited with 15, and he likely did kill several more, but they aren't confirmed. He also wasn't a typical killer either. Most serial killers only target strangers. Pee Wee only killed people he knew personally, with the exception of 2 hired hits. Although, the ones he boasted about that likely didn't happen are random strangers.  This is a fun episode, even though its such a grim topic. We had alot of fun at Pee Wee's expense on this one.

So, this guy! Gerald is one of these sadistic pukes who thought that his sexual urges were more important than his victim's lives. He had multiple wives, and brutalized all of them. Then, he met Charlene. She loved him, and came up with a plan to get him to stop abusing her. (Spoiler: I didn't work all the time) But, she focused his attention on someone other than her. Innocent women. They made these women their sex slaves. Nice guy, right? Join us as we tell this depraved POS's story, and we discuss who was the ringleader. Gerald or Charlene?

Buckle up, Buttercups! This is a long and crazy one. We cover the narcissistic con man, Larry Ray. He became a successful parasite on the Wall Street and political stages by pretending to be something he wasn't. He scammed everyone, including the FBI, the mob, and even the CIA. We do a deep dive on his rise that resulted in a prison sentence. Once released, he moved in with his daughter and her dormmates at Sarah Lawrence College in NY where he quickly took control of them using cult like brainwashing techniques and abuse. Emotional, physical and sexual. He ruled them like a tyrant for years until his scam finally came to an end when some of the students woke up and got the hell out of the situation.  We are joined by Lily of the Morbidly Intoxicated Podcast. Part one, Bill of CKCB takes the lead. In part 2, Lily will be taking the lead on Larry's trial and all the craziness that ensued during it.  A good drinking game for this episode would be to take a drink every time Bill says "wrap it up" or "power through" And, every time Todd says "LORD" It was a long episode and we were getting antsy toward the end.  Click here for our website.

Another short one, but a really long one is coming next week. We don't do our typical deep dive on this one. We cover his childhood, and how he comes unhinged, leading to his murder spree.

If there was a story you absolutely NEEDED to hear, this is it. In 1890, William Cotrell became mayor of Cedar Key, FL. He was a drunk and depraved psycho. He ruled the town like a tyrant, and the people were living in fear. The US has only sent the military to depose local leaders one time. This was it. The infamous Pinkertons are involved as well.  Join us as we discuss Cotrell's childhood, and all his chaos into adulthood, and how he became mayor, and how he was later removed. This story is in high gear from the moment it begins until the crazy end of it. Cotrell likely was the first ever crazy Florida man. Click here for our website.

Buckle up for one of the most intense and captivating stories you'll ever hear. Serial Killer, Larry Hall who was suspected in many murders was in prison on 2 convictions. He had already won his appeal on one of the convictions, and it was very likely he'd win the second one as well, and walk free. The prosecutor and the FBI send drug dealer, James Keene into the prison to befriend Hall, and get a legit confession from Hall, as well as the locations of the bodies. A very dangerous mission for sure. If Keene is successful, he is a free man. So grab a beer and join us in this incredible story. Click here for our website.

After watching the Netflix special, we had no choice. We had to cover this. Join us as we give our critique on the debacle known as Woodstock 99. We discuss the band lineups, and how they weren't a good mix for a festival. We discuss the clueless mindset of the people who put the event on. We discuss the corners that were cut to maximize profit that led to this totally preventable trainwreck. We also discuss the inability of the promoters to not only admit that the whole event was a mistake, but also their inability to acknowledge that something bad even happened.  We had a lot of fun recording this one.

Lets get Culty! In this episode, we cover a cult leader with more origin stories than Sybil had personalities. Dwight York was a racist jerk who believed that his religion was the only one getting to Heaven, and that black people were the only pure people. He also had people believing that he was Egyptian royalty, a Native American chief...and an alien. Oh...And, he also liked kids a little too much. But this one has a very satisfying ending.

In the 80's and 90's, the media, politicians, and religion worked the US public into a hysteria, convincing people that the country was full of satanic cults who sacrificed children to the devil. It was all predicated by the book, 'Michelle Remembers' which was a load of shit concocted by its author, a psychologist, and his wife, a former patient of his. Everyone was being accused of being in a satanic cult. Lives were ruined. Families were destroyed. Something or someone was to blame obviously, right? And the scapegoat? Heavy metal music. The bands were actually hauled into court, being accused of putting messages into their songs, which would make people commit murder, or kill themselves. In this episode, we go over the stories of the bands who were the subject of the witch hunt, and we talk about the ring leaders who led the charge. Its a compelling story whether you like heavy metal or not. So, join us! Correction: In this episode, Bill says that there is audio of Al Gore in court supposedly channeling the ghost of a murder victim. It wasn't Al Gore. It was his Vice Presidential running mate, John Edwards. ALSO, Bill said that Peter Jackson had Damien Echols as an extra in a Lord of the Rings movie. It wasn't LOTR. It was one of The Hobbit movies. Our website, where you can find Bill's (Heavy metal) music, Todd's band, and links to all the platforms for our podcast

In 2004, Marvin Heemeyer destroyed the town of Granby CO with a ginormous monster of a bulldozer that he had built to be impenetrable. It was to get revenge on the towns people who had allegedly done him dirty, and he thought he did it with the blessing of God, or so he thought. There are 2 camps of opinions on this. Was Marv a hero who got pushed too far? Or was he a jerk who acted like a baby when he didn't get his way, then threw the ultimate tantrum? You decide. Either way, every single one of us secretly wishes they could do that to their enemies. Admit it. Right or wrong, You do too.Join Bill and Todd as they explore the whole story.

Audio alert: Bill and Todd's tracks are slightly out of synch in part of this episode. Joe Clark  is a special kind of scumbag. A depraved sadist. He was well on his way to becoming a serial killer. He liked to kidnap teenage boys, and torture them to death. His favorite method of torture?  He liked to break his victim's legs with his bare hands. He had gotten away with it once, but he wasn't counting on his second victim, Thad Phillips. A young man who refused to die. He escaped, and lived to tell the tale. This one is rough, but you have to admire Thad for the total badass that he is.Click here for our website. It has all our episodes, as well as links to Todd's band, Bill's music, and CKCB's social media. 

We tackle this infuriating case of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy that is likely the worst example of it. Dee Dee Blanchard kept her daughter, Gypsy Rose in a torturous life, isolated from everyone and forced her to take all kinds of medicine and undergo many unnecessary surgeries and procedures. And, she became a minor celebrity as a result while scamming charities, good people, the government, media, and everyone else she came into contact with. Gypsy was perfectly healthy, but Dee Dee kept her imprisoned, and convinced that she was deathly ill. Even to the point that she convinced Gypsy Rose and everyone else that she was younger than she actually was so that she could continue her torture for years after Gypsy turned 18.But, Gypsy Rose eventually learned the truth and snapped.

Yep. Todd was drinking 10% alcohol beer. And he was taking lead on the episode. We got off to a late start, and we were both a few beers in when we did start. It started off fine, but gradually, the wheels started to fall off. Its hilarious. But, we did manage to get through the episode, even though we were three sheets to the wind.The Blood Countess, Elizabeth Bathory. What is fact and what is fiction? Did she really murder 650 people? Did she really bathe in their blood? We explore her origin, and her reign of terror.  So, grab a beer and try to keep up!We WILL get the Joseph Paul Franklin episode dropped next week.

Holy moly! Another little known cult that should be well known.  RG Stair started a world wide media empire on AM radio, then on the internet, and made millions. He also had a commune where his followers liquidated every thing they owned to move to the South Carolina commune...and gave all the money to RG to live in squalor and slave 7 days a week for no pay...all to be safe from Armageddon. RG had a prophet complex, he was a narcissist, and an over all piece of garbage. And he also liked the young girls. This story has a twist too, when a well known hip hop artist joined the ranks.  How this cult slipped under the radar is beyond me. Grab a beer. Its gonna get culty.Say What You Mean podcast, referenced several times on this episodeOur website.

Another heavy hitter serial killer. Richard Ramirez, the mentally disturbed mock Satanist who thought that he was serving the devil. Or did he? It could have been an act just for shock value.  We cover his gruesome crimes, and we also cover his troubling upbringing, and his extremely satisfying downfall and capture. We also cover how while in prison, this narcissist thought he was a big deal, and got smacked down to earth every time.  His downfall is easily the most satisfying and hilarious of any serial killer.

What's crazier than Florida Man? How about a whole gang of Florida Men, and an equally crazy Florida Woman? Bank Robbin, Rum Runnin, Swamp Lords, the John Ashley Gang. This story is every bit as intense and crazy as Bonnie and Clyde, Machine Gun Kelly, Al Capone, and all the prohibition mob stories. Why this one is overshadowed is beyond me. South Florida was run by these crazy gangsters, and they were considered the greatest threat to South Florida since the Seminole Indian Wars.  Buckle up and grab a beer. This is a CRAZY ASS story.

We're into double digits! And, we're covering our first cult!Faith Assembly, led by Hobart Freeman was active in the 70's and 80's. They believed among other things that God would heal anything wrong with you, and going to doctors was a sin.  The church had a very high body count of people dying of preventable ailments. And, if you died, it was because your faith wasn't strong enough, and you had unconfessed sin. They also believed that only the people in their church were going to heaven. Pair that up with isolating the congregation from their friends and families, and you're in for a world of shit. It had satellite branches all through the US and in several other countries. But, the kicker? It is still active. Buckle up. You're in for a hell of a ride!Part one is the story of Hobart Freeman and Faith Assembly. Part 2 is Bill's experience growing up in this cult.Shout outs this episode: Timesuck, Seven Deadly Sinners, Monsters of the Midwest, Human MonstersAvanah Sophia's MusicOur social media:TwitterFacebookYouTubeInstagramBill's musicTodd's band

audio alert: Bill's track is bad at some points. There was a bad thunder storm during the recording and Bill is in a steel building. The noise was eliminated but it effected Bill's track in some places. A lurid tale of drug induced mind control and murder. A junkie revolutionary becomes the unwitting pawn of a madman bent on total control. Religion, politics, and drugs aplenty in this one.Shoutout in this episode, @MadeUpMoviesPod and Human MonstersSocial Links:https://mobile.twitter.com/CKC_Beerhttps://www.facebook.com/CKCBPChttps://www.instagram.com/ckcab2022/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNlMRL0bKGMjmQbpxv4GwPQhttps://www.facebook.com/RADlikethe80shttps://open.spotify.com/artist/34eWK88psoEpApXis1taB1?si=13l_qSYLQcOfo6AwXbuiOA

Yep. There were other female serial killers in Florida. Aileen Wuornos wasn't the only one.  We'll get to her at some point. But the two did have similar tragic upbringings. Nurture for sure on both of them. Except, Christine didn't prey on horny guys looking for sex. She did something far worse.  She preyed on kids just because she felt like it. Join us as we tell the story of this horrible person.Social:https://mobile.twitter.com/CKC_Beerhttps://www.facebook.com/CKCBPChttps://www.instagram.com/ckcab2022/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNlMRL0bKGMjmQbpxv4GwPQBill's music and Todd's bandhttps://www.facebook.com/RADlikethe80shttps://open.spotify.com/artist/34eWK88psoEpApXis1taB1?si=13l_qSYLQcOfo6AwXbuiOA

In this story, we have a young lady in high school who is a total winner in every way imaginable. We unfortunately have two high school douchebags who are losers in every way imaginable. They decide they are going to be the most infamous serial killers ever, and that they are going to start their body count with Cassie-Jo. Join us as we tell you about the awesome person who was Cassie-Jo, and the senseless crime. Not to mention how stupid these two wannabe criminal masterminds were.New podcast friends:Wicked and GrimMonsters Of The MidwestMorbidly IntoxicatedTrue Crime FilesSocial links:https://mobile.twitter.com/CKC_Beerhttps://www.facebook.com/CKCBPChttps://www.instagram.com/ckcab2022/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNlMRL0bKGMjmQbpxv4GwPQTodd's band and Bill's music:https://www.facebook.com/RADlikethe80shttps://open.spotify.com/artist/34eWK88psoEpApXis1taB1?si=13l_qSYLQcOfo6AwXbuiOA

Harvey Glatman was the first serial killer to photograph his victims. He killed 3, and later was determined to have killed a fourth. But he possibly killed many more. Join us as we trash this jerk who later inspired our previous subject, BTK. He was the OG Buck Tooth Knucklehead.Social:https://mobile.twitter.com/CKC_Beerhttps://www.facebook.com/CKCBPChttps://www.instagram.com/ckcab2022/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNlMRL0bKGMjmQbpxv4GwPQBill's Music, Todd's Bandhttps://www.facebook.com/RADlikethe80shttps://open.spotify.com/artist/34eWK88psoEpApXis1taB1?si=13l_qSYLQcOfo6AwXbuiOA

Note: this episode is horrible. But if you're a glutton for punishment, feel free. Well, we did it. We finished it. And you'll notice Bill losing it during this episode. The deep dive into BTK for himself really messed with him, bad. But we still got our shots in on him, and we got through and finished the episode. It was a learning experience for sure....Many beers were consumed during this episode.

Note: this episode is horrible. But if you want to listen, Join us as we trash the jerk known as BTK. A heavy hitter, but still a wannabe because all he did was steal things from every other serial killer. Bill has a hard time getting into this puke's writing. Must be Bill's problem because Dennis Rader is such a literary genius.

On April 23, 1987 crazed and mentally ill William Cruse killed 6 people, and injured 14 others at 2 shopping centers in Palm Bay, FL.

As far as I could find, we're the first podcast to cover this story.  Join Bill and Todd as they tell this story that put their hometown on national news.  We also spotlight a local legend named Chris Long, whose band, Dead Serios wrote a song about this incident called "I Wanna Force Feed William Cruse."Chris Long's LinksChris's BlogInstsgramTwitterFacebookGood ReadsCKCB links:https://mobile.twitter.com/CKC_Beerhttps://www.facebook.com/CKCBPChttps://www.instagram.com/ckcab2022/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNlMRL0bKGMjmQbpxv4GwPQTodd's band and Bill's music:https://www.facebook.com/RADlikethe80shttps://open.spotify.com/artist/34eWK88psoEpApXis1taB1?si=13l_qSYLQcOfo6AwXbuiOA
