    Friends Like These

    When Skylar Neese wasn’t posting photos of her with two best friends, she was posting cryptic messages about mean girls. One night in 2012, Skylar slipped out of her bedroom window, got into an awaiting car, and vanished. When the trail went cold, Shelia Eddy and Rachel Shoaf flooded social media with pleas for information on their friend’s disappearance. But Shelia and Rachel had their own secrets. And investigators learned that not everything among the girls was as it seemed. The Hulu true crime documentary series “Friends Like These: The Murder of Skylar Neese,” recounts the crime that gripped West Virginia at the dawn of the social media age. The show combines interviews with friends, family and investigators with excerpts from the girls’ diaries and Twitter accounts to tell the story of how the crime came together and how it was solved.

    Foundling

    Lucy Greenwell remembered a story from her childhood: in 1987, a newborn was abandoned off a country road near her home in Suffolk. Now a journalist, Greenwell tracked down Jess, who grew up wondering how she came to be a foundling. Jess eventually reached out to the young nanny who miraculously discovered her in a secluded field. As her suspicions about Jennifer grew, Jess would learn more about her rescuer’s life. Meanwhile, Greenwell investigated whether a live-in nanny in this town could conceal her pregnancy and delivery, and discard a baby undetected. In the end, Jess understood that, all these years later, the impact of her abandonment rippled far beyond her own origin story.   From Tortoise Investigates and The Observer comes the podcast “Foundling.” Greenwell follows Jess’s quest to learn the truth about her birth, her parents, and the impact that her search had on the many people unknowingly connected to her.

    Blood Will Tell

    When his eighteen-year-old twin brother Anh gets into a drunken fight at a party, Trung stabs his attacker. San Jose police place both identical twins in a lineup, and witnesses mistakenly say Anh was the one who delivered the fatal blow…a mistake neither brother cares to correct. Their silence was born from their intense fraternal bond, as well as being Vietnamese immigrants in street gangs where snitching is a dangerous proposition. But Anh’s resentment festers as Trung’s guilt for his actions grows. Will one of them spit out the truth or will they both swallow a lie? In the podcast “Blood Will Tell” from Wondery and Campside Media, host Jen Miller frames Trung and Anh’s story in Shakespearean terms, a tragedy about how far someone will go to protect a loved one. As the brothers recount their life stories and explain their actions, Miller eventually gets the two to address the consequences of their decisions on their brotherly bond.

    Who Blew Up The Guidestones?

    The Georgia Guidestones were a 19‑foot‑tall, Stonehenge‑like tourist attraction commissioned in 1980 by an anonymous benefactor. Its purpose was unclear, and its granite inscriptions about population control made some uneasy. When an explosion destroyed the Guidestones in 2022, some brushed it off as a prank. But controversy around the monument had been growing among evangelicals, right‑wing politicians, and conspiracy theorists. The unsolved case has raised the question of who blew up the Georgia Guidestones — and the more troubling question of why. The podcast “Who Blew Up the Guidestones?” from The Atlanta Journal‑Constitution and Goat Rodeo digs into the case, exploring the monument’s mysterious origins, its enigmatic purpose, and the many groups who wanted it destroyed. Host Tyler O’Brien investigates the explosion and identifies a new suspect. Was the bombing an act of mindless vandalism or a sinister act of domestic terrorism?

    Trust Me: The False Prophet

    When Dr. Christine Marie and her videographer husband moved to Utah, they befriended members of the polygamous FLDS church. With the community’s former leader now in prison, Samuel Bateman claimed to be their new prophet and took on 20 wives. Concerned about the underage girls among them, Christine convinced Bateman to let them film a documentary about him. The couple recorded evidence that Bateman was trafficking the girls, but local police were reluctant to take action. Meanwhile, Christine worked secretly to convince the young wives — and the parents who allowed the marriages — that they were under the spell of a false prophet. The Netflix series “Trust Me: The False Prophet” provides a look at Bateman’s crimes from the perspective of the filmmakers embedded in his home. Featuring their original footage along with new interviews, it shows Christine’s efforts as a double agent, using the documentary to gather evidence while trying to free his devoted victims from his grip.

    The Predator of Seville

    Gabrielle Vega said while on a student trip to Morocco in 2013, she was drugged and raped by the Spanish tour guide. As she worked through her trauma, she learned the charismatic Manuel Blanco had attacked other women on European excursions. After Gabrielle told her story on television, scores of other women came forward with their own tales of assault. Armed with dozens of victim statements - but little physical evidence - Gabrielle pushed Spanish authorities to seek justice. Netflix’s “The Predator of Seville” features Gabrielle and other survivors who say they were attacked by Blanco, but the serial rapist/tour guide never faced any consequences. It also follows Gabrielle as she navigates the Spanish court system in an uphill battle to hold Blanco accountable.

    The Idiot

    Journalist M. Gessen’s cousin Allen rubbed everyone in their family the wrong way, an annoying windbag who moved from one hustle to another. To win his custody dispute with his ex-wife, he tried to get her deported. He kidnapped their son and fled the country — twice. And finally, he was arrested by the FBI for hiring a hitman to kill her. With relatives holding different opinions on Allen’s actions, Gessen decided to dig deeper into the family dynamic. After talking with the people at the center of the affair, Gessen came to the conclusion that Allen is an idiot. In “The Idiot” from Serial Productions and The New York Times, M. Gessen recounts what happened when their pompous cousin is implicated in a murder-for-hire plot. They offer a grim-yet-humorous look at a family dynamic punctuated by co-dependence and irritation.
