The Dark Side of True Crime Culture: The Uncomfortable Truth

True crime is more popular than ever before. From Netflix documentaries and viral TikTok clips to bestselling podcasts and YouTube channels, millions of people consume crime stories every single day. But as the genre continues to grow, so does an uncomfortable question: when does interest in true crime cross the line? In this episode of True Crime Catch Up, Stuart Blues and Adam Lloyd explore the darker side of modern true crime culture, from serial killer merchandise and murderer fan clubs to the rise of dark tourism and the glamorisation of notorious criminals. Why do some killers become household names while victims are forgotten? Is buying a serial killer mug just dark humour, or something far more troubling? And when people visit murder scenes for photos and content, has true crime gone too far? This thought-provoking discussion dives into the ethics of true crime, society’s fascination with murder, and where respect for victims should come first. If you enjoy true crime podcasts, crime documentaries, criminal psychology and debates around the genre, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Witches: The San Francisco Killers

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Michael and Suzan Carson drifted through the American West, moving between communes, shared apartments, and marijuana farms. They changed their names, adopted a patchwork belief system of mysticism and religion, and came to see themselves as warriors in a hidden war. Between 1981 and 1983, they killed three people and insisted their victims were witches. This episode traces how an ordinary couple built a shared delusion powerful enough to justify killing, and why the story has been remembered as something occult rather than what it was: a case study in belief, control, and the human capacity to turn ideology into violence. *** If you have a story where crime and the otherworldly intertwine, something strange, unexplained or just plain haunted, get in touch at paranormia@alwaystruecrime.com.

Bad Santas: Christmas Crimes and Festive Offences Across the UK

Christmas crime in the UK doesn’t stop just because it’s the festive season. In this Christmas Eve episode of True Crime Catch Up, we explore real UK cases involving so-called “Bad Santas”, Christmas Eve burglaries, and festive-season offences where people dressed as Santa committed crimes around the holidays. This relaxed roundup-style episode examines why crime often increases at Christmas, how offenders exploit seasonal routines and celebrations, and the impact these crimes have on victims. While lighter in tone than our usual episodes, this conversation is a reminder that festive crime is still serious, and that awareness matters - even at Christmas.

The Surrogate

When Lucy Hart, a smiley 26-year-old from the UK arrived in Tullamore Ireland in 2014, she seemed like the perfect au pair. But the truth behind Lucy's life before she became an au pair spanned two countries, three children and a long history of lies. In this episode, Sue Perkins and Katherine Denkinson hear stories from the women who hired Lucy to look after their children and dive deep into a story stranger and darker than anybody could have predicted to investigate the woman behind the identity of Lucy Hart.

Behind the Mic: How We Research, Write and Live With True Crime

In this episode of True Crime Catch Up, we’re doing something a little different. Instead of focusing on one case, we go behind the scenes of true crime podcasting. We talk openly about how we choose cases, how we research and write them, and the emotional toll that comes with telling these stories week after week. We discuss recent cases we’ve covered, including why certain stories stay with us, the dangers of turning true crime into “man kills woman every week”, and how behaviour that escalates over time is still too often dismissed or minimised. We also talk about wrongful convictions, false confessions, and the long-lasting impact these cases have on victims’ families.

Locked Up for Nothing: The Truth About Wrongful Convictions

Wrongful convictions represent one of the most devastating failures of the justice system, where innocent people lose years, even decades, of their lives for crimes they didn’t commit. In this episode of True Crime Catch Up, we explore how and why wrongful convictions happen in the UK, from police tunnel vision and coerced confessions to failures in forensic evidence and disclosure. Using real cases including Robert Brown, Peter Sullivan, and Andrew Malkinson, we break down the human cost behind the statistics and examine how the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) works to overturn unsafe convictions. We also dive into the ongoing debate surrounding the conviction of Lucy Letby, asking difficult questions about the role of statistical evidence, expert testimony, and whether complex cases can ever be truly understood by juries. With proposals to limit jury trials in certain circumstances, could the risk of wrongful convictions increase? And how much faith should we place in a system that sometimes gets it so badly wrong? As always, we explore the crime, the law, and the wider implications for the UK, before ending on a lighter note with a brilliant story of a crime-solving dog named Rusty.

Unsolved: The Case at Dyatlov Pass

In February 1959, nine experienced hikers disappeared in the northern Ural Mountains. When searchers found their tent weeks later, it was cut open from the inside. Boots were left neatly behind, food sat untouched, and footprints, some barefoot, led into the snow. Over the months that followed, the bodies were recovered in stages. Some had died of exposure and others suffered catastrophic internal injuries with almost no external wounds. The Soviet investigation closed the case with a single, unsettling phrase: “an insurmountable force of nature,” but theories, from avalanches to military tests and conspiracy, have persisted. This episode looks at what is known, what remains disputed, and how a remote mountain turned into a legend. *** If you have a story where crime and the otherworldly intertwine, something strange, unexplained or just plain haunted, get in touch at paranormia@alwaystruecrime.com.

Smoking Guns: UK Murder Cases Where Killers Were Caught Red-Handed

In most murder investigations, detectives are forced to piece together fragments. Circumstantial clues, witness statements, and timelines that don’t quite line up. But sometimes, a case hinges on something far more powerful - a single, undeniable piece of evidence. The kind that leaves no room for doubt. The kind that ends arguments, silences suspects, and changes everything in an instant. This is what investigators call the smoking gun. In this episode of True Crime Catch Up, we examine some of the most notorious UK murder cases where one critical piece of evidence exposed the truth beyond question. From shocking oversights to chillingly clear proof, these are the moments where killers were caught red-handed and justice became inevitable. These real-life British true crime stories highlight how one mistake, one object, or one discovery can unravel even the most carefully constructed lies.

UK Auditors: Harmless Trend or Serious Problem? | Plus This Week's UK Headlines & True Crime Talk

Are “auditors” harmless content creators or a growing problem on our streets in 2025? In this episode, we dive into the rise of YouTube and TikTok auditors - the confrontational filming trend blowing up across the UK. We break down why these channels are exploding, the ethics behind rage-bait content, and the real-world consequences for staff, security guards, and the public. We also explore the legal grey areas around public filming, drone use, privacy concerns, and why these videos spark such divided opinions online. Plus, we dig into the link between e-bikes and crime, surprising safety risks, and the stories behind recent e-bike-related deaths.

Facial Recognition Technology: Is the UK Becoming a Surveillance State?

Facial recognition technology is expanding fast across the UK - from police vans and high streets to pubs, stadiums, and even private doorbell cameras - and many are asking whether we’re stepping into a world George Orwell warned us about decades ago. In this video, we break down what the UK Government’s new facial-recognition plans actually mean, why police forces are being encouraged to ramp up live and retrospective scanning, and how public opinion has shifted as the technology becomes impossible to avoid. We explore the accuracy concerns, the bias warnings, and the growing fear that innocent people could be misidentified in real time. We also look at the debate around prevention vs reaction: can facial recognition genuinely stop violent crimes before they happen, or does it only identify offenders after tragedy has already unfolded? With comparisons to 1984 and Big Brother, rising privacy concerns, and new government pledges to expand biometrics nationwide, this episode asks whether increased surveillance is making us safer - or simply more watched.
