This episode on the HOZ Comedy Podcast with Joey, this episode kicks off with Chicago sports talk before jumping into Thanksgiving feasts, chaotic Facebook Marketplace encounters, and some surprising betting wins that carried the holiday season. The crew dives into everything from Stranger Things and K-Pop demon hunters to the strange world of alligator noises and Field Museum discoveries. They keep the laughs rolling with stories of winter car pileups, Christmas chaos, Joey's upcoming comedy show, and a wild conversation that jumps from the Slender Man stabbing to classic South Park political humor. Throwback radio memories of Eddie & Jobo and Mancow lead into chats about family travel, solo living, and the elusive extended cut of Kill Bill. To wrap it up, the guys recount a brutally awkward Tinder date that never showed, share some final jokes, and remind listeners where to find the pod. It's random, hilarious, nostalgic, and full of peak HOZ energy. Tap in, laugh out loud, and share the madness.

The case that shocked the country just took an even darker turn. New details have emerged about who Morgan Geyser escaped with, how she was able to break free from a supposedly supervised group home, and the massive systemic failures that let her travel across state lines before anyone realized she was gone. What we're learning now raises disturbing questions about supervision, risk assessment, and why someone with her violent history was ever placed in a neighborhood without warning. Tonight, we break down everything that's happened since her capture in Illinois — including the surprising statements from the man found with her. He claims she fled “because of him,” revealing a relationship that should never have been allowed in the first place. We examine what this connection tells us about her mindset, the breakdown of boundaries in her supervised release, and how a person once committed after a delusion-fueled attack was able to form this kind of attachment without the system catching it. We walk through the escape minute-by-minute:  • The GPS monitor alert labeled as a “malfunction.”  • The hours-long delay before anyone checked her location.  • The missing-person report not reaching police until the next morning.  • And the capture behind a truck stop more than 150 miles away. We look at what investigators have uncovered, what the group home missed, and why the Department of Corrections treated a tamper alert like a tech glitch instead of a high-risk event. And then — what happens next. Geyser has waived extradition. Wisconsin is preparing to take her back. Her conditional release is on the brink of being revoked. Multiple agencies are now under scrutiny, and lawmakers are already pushing for major changes to how high-risk supervised releases are handled. This isn't just an escape. It's a case study in how optimism, secrecy, and blind spots can collide in ways that put entire communities at risk. And it's a story that's far from over. Join us as we dig into the timeline, the failures, the psychology, and the fallout. #MorganGeyser #SlenderManCase #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeNews #Wisconsin #CrimeAnalysis #JusticeSystem #PublicSafety #TrueCrimeToday #CrimeUpdates Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Tonight on Hidden Killers, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott helps us unravel two cases that shouldn't be connected — but absolutely are. On one side: Ashlee Buzzard, a mother spiraling into paranoia, delusion, secrecy, and destabilization as her nine-year-old daughter, Melodee, remains missing. On the other: Morgan Geyser, the Slender Man attacker who escaped a state placement, cut her ankle monitor, crossed state lines with a 42-year-old man, and was found behind a truck stop. Two wildly different cases. One identical problem: a system incapable of responding to psychological danger until AFTER the damage is done. Shavaun takes us deep into the psychology behind both crises. In the Buzzard case, we look at fractured reality, shifting stories, conspiracy fears, digital erasure, symbolic “shrines,” and the psychological danger created when a child's safety depends entirely on a parent who may no longer be tethered to shared reality — yet shows just enough calm to avoid involuntary intervention. In the Geyser case, we dig into the illusion of “recovery,” the fragility of delusion-based offenders, hidden addresses, overlooked red flags, troubling adult relationships, and the near-disastrous consequences of placing someone with her history in an unsecured neighborhood with nothing but a GPS bracelet — a bracelet that failed the moment it mattered. Both cases ask the same chilling questions: • Why can't the system intervene before irreversible harm? • Why is “imminent danger” defined so narrowly it becomes meaningless? • How can someone be deeply unstable yet still appear compliant enough to avoid detection? • How many red flags does it take before a child or community is protected? This is a conversation about psychology, danger, and systemic blind spots — and why families, victims, and entire neighborhoods keep getting blindsided by crises everyone saw coming but nobody was legally allowed to stop. #HiddenKillers #MelodeeBuzzard #AshleeBuzzard #MorganGeyser #SlenderMan #TrueCrime #MentalHealthCrisis #SystemFailure #TonyBrueski #ShavaunScott Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode of Hidden Killers, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to unpack the disturbing psychology and systemic collapse behind the escape of Morgan Geyser — the now-23-year-old woman who attempted a ritualistic Slender Man killing as a child, and who recently slipped out of a state-approved group home with a 42-year-old man after cutting off her GPS monitor. This wasn't a locked facility. This wasn't a secure psychiatric placement. This was a quiet residential street with families and kids — none of whom were told she was there. Tonight, we dig into the dangerous illusion of “stability” in cases like this. For years, Morgan lived in the tightly controlled structure of an institution. But structure can mask fragility. Compliance is not recovery. And what looked like stability to officials has now erupted into an interstate escape, a severed GPS bracelet, a fake name, and a bizarre “Google me” exchange with police. Shavaun walks us through the psychological landmines: • What her original violent delusion reveals about long-term risk • Why institutional calm can lull clinicians into false confidence • The overlooked red flags: dark material, troubling adult contacts • Why placing her in an unsecure group home was a catastrophic risk • What attachment to a much older man signals clinically • How quickly delusion-based distortions can return • The massive danger created when addresses are sealed from the public • Why relapse in psychosis can be invisible until it's explosive And then there's the system failure: When Morgan cut her GPS bracelet, the alert came in around 9:30 p.m. Police weren't notified until nearly 12 hours later. For victims like Payton Leutner, this is a nightmare come back to life. For the public, it's a warning about how dangerously optimistic the system can be when evaluating violent, delusion-based offenders. This episode pulls the curtain back on the psychology — and the failures — behind a case that never should have been allowed to unfold this way. #HiddenKillers #MorganGeyser #SlenderMan #TrueCrime #MentalHealth #Psychosis #SystemFailure #TonyBrueski #ShavaunScott #CrimeNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week we have...The Gratitude Episode! (With Mike and Bill)To be completely honest, we didn't fall over ourselves trying to make this just a Gratitude Episode. We try to live that way every day and hopefully it shows.Mike started out with his reading and it was about saying thank you. Those are two very simple words, but do we use them enough? Do we truly appreciate when someone is kind to us? It takes work to be kind and we should say thank you more often. It was a good topic.We talked about justifiable anger, repacking our bags each day, some other podcasts, painful memories and Nurse Jackie.We also came across a few articles that were fun. A racist soup executive, saving a dog from a fake fire and Slender Man.Enjoy the episode.Visit us Podcast  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sobernotmature.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Store  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sobernotmatureshop.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hobo ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.themoderndayhobo.com

This is the story Wisconsin never wanted to explain — how the girl who nearly took a child's life in the infamous Slender Man attack was quietly moved into a suburban neighborhood, supervised by nothing more than a plastic ankle monitor, and somehow slipped across state lines with a grown man before anyone sounded the alarm. Tonight, we're taking you through the full timeline of how Morgan Geyser — the attacker in the Slender Man stabbing — went from a secure psychiatric institution to a residential street in Madison. Not because she “served her time,” but because judges, doctors, and state agencies convinced themselves she was ready for “community reintegration,” despite red flags that would stop any other case in its tracks. We dig into the decisions that opened the door:  • The court rulings that shifted her from a locked facility to a group home.  • The warnings about disturbing reading material and troubling outside contacts.  • The placement that got scrapped after residents found out who was coming.  • The next placement, quietly sealed by the court to avoid public backlash.  • The neighborhood full of families who had no idea she had moved in.  • And the ankle-monitor alert that DOC brushed off as a “device glitch” while she walked freely into the night. And then — the escape.  A missing GPS signal.  A 12-hour communication delay.  A 42-year-old man by her side.  And a capture behind a truck stop in Illinois after officers realized the woman they found didn't want to say her name because she'd “done something really bad.” This isn't just a story about an escape. It's a story about a system that trusted a fragile treatment plan more than it trusted the memory of what she had already done. It's about the gap between courtroom optimism and real-world danger. And it's about how the people most affected — the victim's family, the neighbors, and the public — were kept in the dark until everything fell apart. If you've ever wondered how someone with a violent, delusion-driven history ends up living quietly next to families with no warning, this breakdown will answer that — and raise questions Wisconsin will be forced to confront. #SlenderManCase #MorganGeyser #TrueCrimeNews #HiddenKillers #CrimeAnalysis #JusticeSystem #Wisconsin #CrimeBreakdown #PublicSafety #TrueCrimeToday Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Slender Man case is back in the headlines for all the wrong reasons — and the questions raised this time are even more unsettling than the original crime. Morgan Geyser, one of the two girls responsible for the near-fatal 2014 Slender Man stabbing, walked out of a Wisconsin group home after cutting off her GPS monitor… and made it all the way to Illinois before anyone finally put a stop to it. Tonight, we break down how this even happened. Because if you think the system learned its lesson after the horror of that attack, think again. We trace the full timeline — from the original case, to the insanity rulings, to the step-downs from secure psychiatric care, to the judge's continued leniency despite red flags about violent material and questionable outside contacts. Then we examine the part that has people furious: how someone with this history was placed in a low-security setting with nothing more than a strap of plastic around her ankle standing between the public and another potential tragedy. This isn't fear-mongering. It's a real look at what happens when the legal system bends over backward to “treat” a violent offender while forgetting that protection of the public is supposed to come first. It's also a look at why the more extreme the delusions behind a violent act, the faster the system seems to nudge toward reintegration — instead of building genuine safeguards. Morgan Geyser is back in custody. But this is a wake-up call for Wisconsin, and honestly, for the entire country. When someone who committed one of the most disturbing attacks of the last decade can just walk out of supervised care and vanish across state lines, the problem isn't the individual — it's the system that allowed it. Join us as we break down what went wrong, how it could've been prevented, and why this case feels far too close to a real-life horror movie. #SlenderManCase #MorganGeyser #TrueCrimeNews #HiddenKillers #Wisconsin #JusticeSystem #CrimeAnalysis #PublicSafety #CrimeStories #TrueCrimeToday Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

23-year-old Morgan Geyser has spent the past decade in a mental facility after stabbing her friend and classmate 19 times at the age of 12. Geyser’s story made international headlines after it was revealed that she and another 6th grader lured and attempted to murder their friend to impress a fictional online character “Slenderman” whom they believed to be real. On Sunday, Geyser was found with a 42-year-old man more than 100 miles away just months after being moved to a group home. Geyser fled the home by cutting off her ankle monitor this weekend, after prosecutors had warned the court earlier this year that she was having “violent conversations” with a man outside the facility.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
