    Oct 9 2024
    To support us and gain access to exclusive content, please visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod Driven by a twisted need to possess her married lover, Koshizô Ishida forever, a woman named Sada Abe strangled him, castrated him, and carried his severed genitals in her kimono—ensuring, in her mind, that he would remain hers for all eternity. Amidst the modern neon glow and ancient temples of 1936 Tokyo, Sada's life was sadly shaped by trauma, longing, repression, and erotic obsession. After training as a low-level geisha and meeting Koshizô, Sada became deeply infatuated, and their scandalous relationship blurred the lines between love and obsession until it spiraled into a dangerous fixation - one that drove Sada to committ a horrific act of violence in an effort to possess him forever.

  • EP88: Prenatal Predator
    Oct 2 2024
    To support us and gain access to exclusive content, please visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod At 3:26 PM on Thursday, December 16, 2004, Becky Harper made a gruesome discovery that no parent should ever have to see: her 23-year-old daughter, Bobbi Jo Stinnett, lying dead in a pool of blood on the floor of her Missouri home. The scene was a vision of gruesome chaos, and Becky struggled to comprehend the horror before her. As she continued to absorb all the horrific details, her breath caught in her throat as she realized that Bobbi Jo’s abdomen had been violently ripped open. And, heartbreakingly, the baby she had been carrying for nearly eight months was gone. All that remained was a severed umbilical cord. This is the devastating case of the brutal murder of Bobbi Jo Stinnett and the shocking abduction of her unborn daughter, Victoria Jo. It is also the chilling story of Lisa Montgomery, the deeply disturbed perpetrator who became the first woman to be executed by the federal government since 1953. The details of this episode are extremely graphic in nature - listener discretion is advised.

  • Introducing: Cement City
    Sep 20 2024
    Two journalists stumble into a dying town with a Smog Museum and a mayor named Piglet… and not a whole lot else. They have one burning question: What’s it like to live here, in a town left for dead? They buy a house and stay – for three years. They get caught up in an election cycle and a web of scandals. It’s democracy in action on the smallest scale. It’s Our Town for our time. And it’s all real. Cement City is an Audacy original in partnership with Cement City Productions.

  • EP86: Killing Is My Kink
    Sep 18 2024
    To support us and gain access to exclusive content, please visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod In September 2013, three friends chatting on a bridge over the Vartry Reservoir near Dublin noticed a series of disturbing items floating in the water: handcuffs, shackles, rope, a woman’s top, leg restraints, and a leather face mask with a gag ball. Additionally, among the recovered items were also two cell phones containing extremely graphic text messages between individuals labeled "Master" and "Slave." Then, the following day, a dog walker stumbled upon decomposed human remains in a wooded area near the reservoir. Tragically, the connection between these macabre discoveries unraveled a nightmarish tale of BDSM and murder, and revealed the absolutely devastating descent of Elaine O'Hara, an innocent and vulnerable woman who fell prey to the horrifically twisted fantasies of a depraved killer. TRIGGER WARNING: This case contains extremely disturbing content and includes difficult discussions of sexual assault, self-harm, and suicide. Please listen with caution.

  • EP85: The Man in the Red Bandana
    Sep 11 2024
    To support us and gain access to exclusive content, please visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod In the face of death, most would run—it’s human nature to flee from danger, to protect oneself, to cling to life. But on September 11, 2001, as chaos engulfed the South Tower of the World Trade Center, Welles Remy Crowther defied that instinct. Amid the smoke and fire, with the ground shaking beneath him and flames licking at his skin, he chose not to run. Instead, he repeatedly charged back into the inferno, not for himself, but to save others. Driven by something far stronger than fear, he guided the lost, comforted the wounded, and led the terrified to safety. He knew the risks—each step could be his last—but his deep sense of duty and compassion never wavered. In those moments of unimaginable terror, he saved 18 lives. This man, who faced death without flinching, who stood as a beacon of courage and selflessness in the darkest of times, was The Man in the Red Bandana.

  • EP84: A Father's Revenge
    Sep 4 2024
    To support us and gain access to exclusive content, please visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod The torment of a parent discovering that their child has been murdered is a searing, primal agony that defies articulation—a force that blends heartache, fury, and helplessness, leaving a deep, forever open wound on the soul. While such horror is unimaginable and "next steps" seem unconceivable, André Bamberski's immediate response to his daughter's murder was extraordinary: he transformed his heartbreak into a relentless, three-decade-long pursuit of justice. His quest unfolds like an international spy thriller, weaving together a web of intrigue, suspicious autopsy reports, forged documents, and whispers of a government cover-up. Yet, at its core, this story is about a brokenhearted father, bound by his duty to his daughter. This is the story of André Bamberski and his quest for vigilante vengeance on behalf of his beloved child, Kalinka.
