Episode 377 - Rodney Alcala: The Dating Game Killer

One of the most prolific serial killers in America's so called 'golden era', Rodney Alcala is responsible for the deaths of at least eight people, although the true number is likely much higher. Yet few people have even heard of him. In fact his ability to narrowly avoid any real consequence for his multiple sexual assaults and violent murders, often on young girls, was so prolific that he even had the chance to appear on one of America’s biggest TV quiz shows... which he won. Hannah and Suruthi revisit their coverage of the Dating Game Killer – one of the most uncomfortable cases we’ve ever covered.

Episode 376 - White Terror

Through the 2000s, three neo-Nazi terrorists and serial killers rampaged across Germany – bombing and shooting immigrants in broad daylight, with total impunity. And despite plenty of evidence, investigators failed to join the dots time and time again. Worse still, the German government was, unknowingly, actively funding the bloodshed. To find out why – a half century after the Holocaust – German authorities refused to believe there was any white supremacist threat, we’re joined by investigative journalist Jacob Kushner, who moved to Germany while the five-year trial of the century played out.

ShortHand: Gladiators

Watching slaves being ritually hacked to pieces may not seem like many people’s idea of a great day out. But 2,000 years ago, Romans turned up in their thousands to watch exactly that. So, with Gladiator back on our screens, we set out to find the truth behind the spectacle – and it’s even bloodier than the movies could ever allow. So what exactly happened in the gladiatorial games? Were there really lions, elephants, bears – and even full-scale naval battles in water-filled arenas? And did Maximus Decimus Meridius really have his vengeance? Find out in this week’s ShortHand.

Episode 374 - Gisèle Pelicot: The Altar of Vice

Of the 83 men who had raped Gisèle Pelicot, she recognised only two faces. One was a neighbour – and the other was her beloved husband of over 50 years. Dominique Pelicot had been using a chatroom to invite total strangers over to assault his wife, without her knowledge, for almost a decade. And she had had no idea. We peel back every layer of this unfathomable case: the shockwaves it sent through France and the Pelicot family; the rapists’ jaw-dropping attitudes to their crimes; Gisèle’s astonishing bravery in speaking up in her 2024 trial; and even evidence linking Dominique Pelicot to two cold cases – one a brutal murder. It’s time to meet the Monster of Avignon.

TRUE CRIME
In a country obsessed with gossip, the great and the good fear one thing more than any other - scandal. British scandals change the course of history. They bring down governments, overthrow the rich and cause the mighty to fall. Some are about sex, others about money. In the end, they’re all about power. But often at the heart of a scandal, there are ordinary human stories. Stories of those caught up in the swirl of outrage. Who was really to blame for what happened? Why did they do it? And when all is said and done, did anything really change? From the creators of Business Wars, American Scandal and Ghost Story, comes British Scandal. Each week, hosts Alice Levine and Matt Forde delve into the murkier side of the British elite, from Phone Hacking to Profumo to the short-lived premiership of Liz Truss. Because sometimes the truth doesn’t set everyone free… Listen to British Scandal on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen early and ad-free on Wondery+.

HISTORY
From Wondery and Goalhanger Podcasts, Afua Hirsch and Peter Frankopan tell the wild stories of some of the most extraordinary men and women ever to have lived – and ask whether they have the rep they deserve. Should Nina Simone’s role in the civil rights movement be more celebrated than it is? When you find out what Picasso got up to in his studio, can you still admire his art? Was Napoleon a hero or a tyrant - or both? (And, while we’re at it, was he even short?) Legacy is the show that looks at big lives from the perspective of now – and doesn’t always like what it sees.

Allen coverage shocking

4 days ago

Criticallybent

4 stars in general, however I am disturbed by the lack of true research regarding the Delphi trial. I listened to your dismissal of the Franks memorandum, taking you(and others words) it was a fantasy novel. Whilst, I can agree the Odinist cult is a bit much, this report contains unbelievable ACTUAL reports from the FBI and investigators! Very compelling LE reports of admissions made by a suspect who KNEW Abby’s name before she was found, twice admitting(in a police report) he was concerned about his spit being on the body. His close acquaintance returned a borrowed vehicle the day after with what appeared to be blood. These aren’t theories, they are actual reports of investigators. Geo fencing put these two and one other individual they hung about with, at the scene at the time. None of them are Richard Allen. Why on earth would you not even give any of this a precursory glance? Ballistics on an unspent shell casing is unheard of, giving Haldol to a “feigning” suspect? Both treating psychologists testified Allen was(whelp, we were wrong) actually psychotic. Just ridiculous Forget the cult angle, this level of just accepting a flimsy media angle then spitting it back out? The lack of responsibility is astounding. I read the reports myself, I’ve inadvertently seen the scene, I’ve been reading through the pre trial motions and have decided to forgo having anymore dissemination of info by podcasters/media. You all simply aren’t trustworthy at this point

So good that I can only go to them for my true crime needs as everyone else is inferior! Haven’t been able to find a better podcast since finding them 5 years ago. Such a great mix of true crime coverage, banter and unique perspectives. Love them 💜

True crime-inal

I have listened for years and always enjoyed and found the episodes to be well researched, put together and entertaining. However, hosts are highly privileged and recently their views and opinions now smack of virtue signalling and champagne socialism. We’re tuning in for the true crime, presented in a well-researched and entertaining way, not to listen to your political viewpoints. For the record, I don’t even disagree with your political views, but I’d seek other podcasts for that sort of commentary. Plus, I’m sure you are alienating big sections of your audience who do have different views on the royal family, US presidents, UK political parties etc. Keep it on topic!
very calming

This podcast is genuinely amazing, the tone is the type you'd listen to in a true crime documentary, genuinely art. I love true crime (as a genre) so this is for anyone who likes narrator worthy voices
