Are you morbidly curious about history’s most depraved serial killers - and wonder why they committed their terrible crimes? Me too! Join me, comedic host Dan Cummins, for heavily researched episodes every week, where I deep dive on topics like The Scorecard Killer, Randy Kraft, the NXIVM Cult, the Q Anon Conspiracy, the 1980 New Mexico Prison Riot, the life of Wild West legend Doc Holliday, the crimes of R Kelly, the Armenian Genocide, fictional horror pioneer H.P. Lovecraft, and so much more. If it’s interesting, we’ll research it! And I’ll make sure the presentation is anything but dry, boring, and…. proper. Get irreverent with me!
