DADDY KNOWS THE DEVIL

Goldy Locks

He’s spent thirty years staring into the eyes of the wicked.She’s spent her life on stage, behind the mic, and in front of the camera — turning chaos into art. Now, retired parole officer Henry Peter and his daughter, Goldy Locks — the original TNA/IMPACT Wrestling personality, rock vocalist of The Goldy lockS Band (who’s opened for Nickelback, Collective Soul, and Stevie Nicks), and star of TLC’s hit reality series Extreme Cheapskates and PBS’s home-renovation show Goldy Knows — unite for a podcast that dares to open the files most people would burn. After hosting her long-running hit Goldy’s Closet under Vince Russo’s Bucket Full of Chicken Necks podcast umbrella, Goldy spent seven years interviewing icons from wrestling, music, and beyond. But nothing could prepare her for this — a chilling, funny, and brutally honest journey through her father’s three decades inside the justice system. Together, they pull back the curtain on real cases, unbelievable offenders, and the impossible choices made by those who guard society’s darkest edges. Each episode of Daddy Knows The Devil dives into true parole files, exploring the psychology of manipulation, redemption, and evil — while educating listeners on how to spot danger, trust their instincts, and stay safe in a world full of devils in disguise. Raw. Real. Unfiltered.Equal parts crime, conscience, and comedy, this is not your average true-crime show — it’s a father-daughter reckoning. Because, as Goldy says: “Some inherit family recipes… I inherited the case files.”

    You Don't Break the Cycle You Interrupt It: Sherry’s Story - Daddy Knows The Devil EPS #12 The Devil's Recap In this episode of Daddy Knows the Devil, Goldy Locks sits down with her father, Henry Peter, for an unflinching look at the juvenile justice system through the real-life story of Sherry, a young girl raised in chaos, survival, and learned trauma. Together, they dismantle common misconceptions about parole officers and corrections work, revealing that the job is far more than paperwork and protocols. Henry draws from firsthand experience, sharing what it truly means to work with at-risk youth, understanding their histories, navigating impossible choices, and confronting the thin line between accountability and survival. As Sherry’s story unfolds, the conversation exposes how environment, neglect, and abuse shape behavior, and how cycles of exploitation, particularly her entrapment by a pimp, are rarely as simple as “bad choices.” Goldy and Henry explore how learned behavior, fear, and lack of intervention can trap someone in a system designed more to manage risk than to heal. The episode doesn’t offer easy answers. Instead, it delivers hard truths about safety, responsibility, and the limits of the system, reminding listeners that in some situations, the best outcome isn’t perfection or redemption, but survival. A raw, compassionate discussion about human complexity, and what it really means to try to break the cycle. The Devil's Details "You don't have time to think about it."
