If there's one thing that gets people's blood pumpin', it's sports. All over the world on any given day, you can find people getting into passionate arguments about whose team has a better chance of making the playoffs, or the finals, or the World Cup or whatever. Sometimes there are fisticuffs involved! There are pubs in Scotland where you're not allowed to wear your football team colors, for fear of a brawl breaking out. In my hometown, when our college team won a big basketball game, people would celebrate by turning over cars and setting stuff on fire. Parents often treat their elementary school kids' Little League games like the fate of the free world is at stake. My point is, people get INTENSE about this stuff. And things can get real, real weird. This week, we bring you two stories that exemplify that weirdness.Case 1: The Wild Lies of Kevin Hart.

There's a meme I've seen a few times. It says “You never know how toxic something is until you breathe fresher air.” I think it's about how easy it is to get so completely wrapped up in a relationship, or a group dynamic, or a way of thinking that you stop seeing it for what it is. You become less and less tuned in to what's normal. This happens a lot when you get two close friends together—two people who might not be likely to do any damage if left to themselves, but who become like fire and gunpowder together. Pushing each other further and further, with neither one willing to flinch. This can get even scarier when the two friends in question are teenagers with huge egos and a fascination with all things dark and edgy.Join Katie and Whitney, plus the hosts of Last Podcast on the Left, Sinisterhood, and Scared to Death, on the very first CRIMEWAVE true crime cruise!

And that sense of comfort must be even greater if “home” is a beautiful house you built yourself, where you live happily with your family in a town where you're successful and respected.

The U.S. military teaches recruits to function together as a well-oiled machine—and for young people who dream of joining the most elite forces, it requires discipline, commitment, and loyalty, not to mention the courage to put yourself in harm's way for the greater good. For the ones with the deepest commitment, there has to be a fire in the belly that drives them to keep their eye on the prize, no matter what the risks. Most of the time this sets the stage for great achievements. But sometimes, the personality type that lends itself to flawless dedication can teeter over the line into feverish obsession. Where's the line? When you've cultivated a “failure is not an option” attitude your entire life, how do you put the brakes on when that determination starts to bleed into your personal relationships?

For at least the past 200 years or so, there's been a lot of debate about women and the role we're supposed to play in society. Historically, we've been expected to be the nurturers, the caregivers—the gentler sex, as we used to be called. We cook the food, we nurse the sick, we mind the children. Some of us are perfectly content in that role. But all throughout history, there have also been women who've chafed against these expectations. Some of them rebelled in a healthy, heroic way—fighting for women's right to vote, to manage our own money, to pursue careers. And some have rebelled in a darker, more toxic way, using the very tools of stereotypical womanhood—food and drink—to commit the deadliest crimes. Today we'll tell you about two of those women.

In this week's episode, we are going to be looking at “Bullshido,” a catch-all term for martial arts practices that are either fake, delusional, or just plain useless. This is the land of no-touch knockouts, touches of death, and mystical masters who can't manage their own lives. We'll be asking the question—should you learn self-defense from summon who struggles with basic reality? Spoiler, the answer is no, no you shouldn't. This is a fun one, y'all.

So they let him remain free—and then, tipped off by his girlfriend, he vanished.

In last week's episode, young nurse Rozanne Gailiunas was brutally murdered while her  young son slept in the room next door. Suspicion initially fell on both her estranged husband, Peter, and her new boyfriend, Larry Aylor. But evidence was thin on the ground, and the case went cold. Three years later, Larry was the target of a botched assassination attempt, but had trouble getting the police to take it seriously. No one connected this shooting to Rozanne's death. Then, out of the blue, a mysterious woman called investigators and laid the blame for Rozanne's murder at the feet of her menacing husband, Bill Garland. This mysterious caller turned out to be Carol, the elder sister of Larry Aylor's wife Joy. And she said Joy was behind the whole thing.

Charles Dederich's sanctuary for those fighting drug addiction had morphed in its first decade of existence. It expanded from helping those with substance issues to becoming a utopian community with a growing list of business assets and resources. With its leader running things like a corporation, Synanon residents soon found their every hour accounted for, but they had no idea what was in store for their own futures or the future of their children.

A town founded on its underground riches was plagued by bad luck. Mass casualty events filled the place's only graveyard. One family chose to honor their departed loved one in a unique way – they built a motel adjacent to the cemetery decorated with an onslaught of clowns. Thousands of figurines outfitted in red noses and giant shoes greet visitors to this roadside inn, but the proximity to the burial ground has generated tales of paranormal activity. Is this ghost business merely a circus act meant to attract visitors or does something horrible lurk beneath these curly wigs? This week's episode is The Clown Motel.

Instead of Freaky Friday this week, we're bringing you A Conversation with The Hero Maker Podcast.  Hosted by Jennifer Morrison, Vermont's Commissioner of Public Safety, and Andrea Shreeman, a Writer/Director/Executive Producer in Los Angeles, their show centers around the 1988 murders of their college friends Rachael Raver and Warren Fulton III. Rachael and Warren's killer was Alfredo Prieto, a serial rapist and murderer who was convicted of just one murder before DNA evidence linked him to 8 others across the country.  Through conversations with those involved in the case as well as outside experts, Jen and Andrea hope to distill wisdom from law enforcement, public safety, and criminal justice professionals for their audience.  We talk with them about their journey from college classmates to starting the show, the impact of true crime media on policy change, how sudden violent acts change so many of those involved, the healing power of sharing stories, and so much more. Organizations mentioned in the interview: - Center for Council: https://www.centerforcouncil.org/ - No More Violence: https://www.nomoreviolence.net/home - The Poynter Institute for Media Studies: https://www.poynter.org/ For more on The Hero Maker Podcast, visit https://theheromakerpodcast.com/ Watch the full video interview: https://youtube.com/sinisterhoodpodcast Click here to sign up for our Patreon and receive hundreds of hours of bonus content.
