Episodes
We are back (again)! For our first, and hopefully not only, podcast of 2025. Tiff eases us in with an absolutely brutal mass murder down in Australia. If we are a little rusty we apologize, but it was awesome to get back behind the mics. Thanks to all of you for your patience! Stay terrible.
WE ARE BACK!! After a year hiatus we have returned with another episode. To ease you (and us) back into things we have kept it nice and light. This one is about the cheese and dairy industry and Americas obsession with hording literal caves full of cheese. Thank you all for your patience this last year and enjoy!
We are back with Part 2 of our look into Carl Eugene Watts, aka the Sunday Morning Killer. This will be the final part as we look into his later victims and eventual arrest. Enjoy, as this will be our last episode for the summer. Thanks for being the best kind of terrible!
This episode is about "The Sunday Morning Slasher" also know as Carl "Coral" Watts. This will be a two-parter going over his back story as well as his crime spree.
Drive a Ford? We are going to make you less happy about that. This weeks episode is about the Ford Massacre, and no that's not a new model car for next year. The 1930's were tough on a lot of people, and the auto workers of Detroit were no exception.
This weeks episode is partly about the invention of the fingernail clippers we know and love today, mixed with a dash of true crime at the end. We are not sure how to trigger warn this one, but it is definitely a little squeamishy (if that's a word). Enjoy and for the love of god don't leave nail clippings on the floor.
Gangsters? The Mafia? A heist? This week we talk about the Lufthansa Heist and all of the dramatics that surround it.
Are you a big Jerry Lee Lewis fan? Well, we are about to change that. This episode is about the rise and fall of Jerry Lee Lewis and the wake of bodies left in his path (allegedly).
Full disclosure, we are pretty buzzed from the jump in this episode. That being said, the topic is the cholera epidemic that plagued London in the late 1800s. This will look at the history on the subject and the changes that were eventually made to combat the issue. Enjoy!
We are back in 2023 and starting off on a surprisingly light note. As you know, we love cryptids, and this episode is all about the chupacabra. While a lot of history and theories surround the mysterious creature, we primarily will cover those of Puerto Rico and Texas. Don't worry, Texas does not disappoint.
As we wrap up another Cultmas, we leave you with our worst cult ending to date. This one is not for the faint of heart and again calls for all of the trigger warnings. This is the second half of the Ant Hill Kids story and their leader Roch Thériault. If you thought Pt. 1 was bad, buckle up.
We continue to ring in the Cultmas season with a Canadian Cult that requires EVERY TRIGGER WARNING. All of them. This is the story of the Ant Hill Kids and their leader Roch Thériault. And you thought all Canadians were nice and polite.

So, you thought after episode 115 that the House of David didn't sound so bad? Welcome back to Part 2 where Tiff ruins everything. Well, she personally didn't ruin it, but she will tell you all about the people that did. Enjoy!
Merry Cultmas! We are back with our yearly look into Cults. First up: House of David! This is Part 1 of 2, and so far everything seems on the up and up. What could go wrong?
We have merch! Merry Cultmas sweaters are out now if you want to fully get into the holiday spirit. https://tellmesomethingterrible.threadless.com/designs/happy-cultmas-sweater
This week we are looking into the disappearance/ abduction/ vacation of one Steven Kubacki. Last seen on the shore of Lake Michigan, he mysteriously reappeared 14 months later in Massachusetts. The wild speculation is more warranted than usual in this story.
Sure, the Bermuda Triangle gets all the recognition, and rightfully so, but have you heard of Lake Michigan's Triangle? Stretching from Wisconsin to Michigan, this area of the lake has been a place of mystery for both ships and planes alike. Come listen as we flex our midwestern in this one.
For our third and final installment of our mini series on the Satanic Panic we are going to be discussing a case out of Long Island. This one has the 80s, all sorts of drugs, bands like AC/DC and a murder. What better way to cap off October?
As spooky seasons moves on, so do we with our series on the Satanic Panic. This week we will take an in depth look at the McMartin Preschool and the charges brought upon its teachers. Get ready to be frustrated and blown away by some of these stories.
Listener discretion is advised.
It is October! To celebrate, we are finally caving to your requests and starting a series on the Satanic Panic. This will be a mini series covering most of spooky season. To start, we will sort out some background and introduce some of the major players (including Anton LaVey). Enjoy!
TMST goes METAL!! Not that metal unfortunately, but instead heavy metal poising, specifically mercury. Inspired by a recent event in which we dressed up as the cast from Alice in Wonderland, we decided to take a look at Mad Hatters and the mercury behind them. This leads to a modern day story of a very crappy coworker in a German factory.
