Behind the polite advertisements and the respectable address in the city center was something much darker.

This episode tells the story of Edith Kadivec, the woman at the center of the 1924 Vienna "Sadist Trial,” in which she was accused of abusing children for the sexual gratification of wealthy and powerful clients. The case exposed not just one abusive teacher, but a whole network of doctors, businessmen, artists, and aristocrats who believed their status would protect them.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices In the 16th to 18th centuries, hundreds of people across Central Europe engineered their own executions in the hope of dying “in a state of grace.” Suicide was a mortal sin, but murder was a capital crime, and execution after confession was seen as a path to salvation. In this episode we discuss several real cases of so-called “suicide by proxy,” including Agnes Catherina Schickin in 1704, Eva Lizlfellnerin in 1762, and Ursula Waserin in 1723.

We take a deep dive into the world of crocodilians—those prehistoric apex predators that have been lurking in rivers, swamps, and sometimes swimming pools for millions of years. From the surprisingly gentle Chinese alligator to the misunderstood American alligator and the unexpectedly terrifying black caiman, we explore the biology, behavior, and long history of these armored giants. You'll learn about death rolls, gator holes, cloacal logistics, and even virgin births. Yes, really. Plus: sewer gator myths, historical attacks, and why crocodilians might just be the ultimate survivors. If you thought you knew gators, you don’t know the half of it.

She continues to lash out, nearly killing the sheriff’s wife, and ultimately stabbing a beloved young nurse more than 200 times in what would become the first recorded line-of-duty death of a female law enforcement officer in the U.S. Along the way, Lizzie makes a claim to her murdered husband’s pension, attempts to set multiple fires, and spins wild tales of murderous gangs and poisoned whiskey. We also hear from journalist Nellie Bly, who sits face-to-face with Lizzie—and walks away unconvinced by her claims of madness. How many people did Lizzie really kill? We may never know.

Meet Schlitzie, the performer who inspired Freaks (1932), a beloved and misunderstood figure of the sideshow world. Krao, the so-called “Missing Link,” whose life challenges the cruel narratives forced upon her. Myrtle Corbin, the "Four-Legged Girl from Texas," who defied expectations and lived on her own terms. And the Two-Headed Nightingale, Millie and Christine McKoy, twin sisters who endured slavery, exploitation, and eventually reclaimed their voices—literally and figuratively. These were real people with real lives beyond the stage. Their stories are heartbreaking, shocking, and sometimes unexpectedly uplifting. Who profited from their existence? How did they navigate a world that both exploited and celebrated them? And what became of them after the applause faded? Step right up for the final chapter in our exploration of the history, myths, and realities of the sideshow.

Their story is full of contradictions—two men who were once paraded as human oddities but ended up profiting off of the very same system that exploited them. And then there’s Julia Pastrana. Her story? No happy endings. Labeled “The Ugliest Woman in the World”, Julia was abused, exploited, and even put on display after her death—because apparently, 19th-century showmen didn’t believe in letting their performers stay dead.

Barnum, the man who revolutionized entertainment and gave the world The Greatest Show on Earth. But before we can fully understand Barnum’s impact, we need to explore the history that paved the way for his success: the origins of freak shows. We trace the roots of these spectacles back to ancient and medieval times, when human oddities were displayed at royal courts, religious festivals, and marketplaces. Over time, these traditions evolved into cabinets of curiosities and traveling fairs, where both artifacts and unique individuals were presented to entertain and educate the public. By the 19th century, freak shows became commercialized, especially with the rise of permanent attractions and traveling circuses. We also take a hard look at the more troubling aspects of this history, like human zoos and ethnological exhibitions, which exploited colonized peoples and perpetuated harmful stereotypes under the guise of science and education. With this context, we turn our focus to Barnum, who used his talent for promotion and storytelling to capitalize on the public’s curiosity. From hoaxes like the Feejee Mermaid to genuine stars like General Tom Thumb, Barnum’s American Museum became a landmark of 19th-century entertainment. And while he was a master showman, his career also raises questions about exploitation and ethics that resonate even today. We round out the episode with a glimpse into Barnum’s personal life, including his marriage to Charity Hallett, the woman who stood by him during his early years as he built his empire. P.T.

On a freezing December night in 2002, 18-year-old Robert disappeared after leaving a nightclub and was later found dead, struck by a car in the middle of a desolate road. But this was no mere accident—it was the result of a series of shocking failures by the very people meant to protect him. We explore how Robert’s night spiraled out of control, from his disoriented wanderings, to the police officers who abandoned him miles from help, dismissing their duty of care. This heartbreaking story covers systemic failures, police accountability, and the devastating ripple effects of a preventable tragedy. It’s a case that forces us to ask: How could so many people fail one vulnerable young man? And how do we ensure this never happens again?
