In a world where truth often feels stranger than fiction, PERPLEXED was born from our obsession with the unexplained, the unsolved, and the utterly mystifying. We started this podcast because we believe every mystery deserves to be heard, every victim deserves justice, and every unexplained phenomenon challenges what we think we know about reality. From chilling true crime cases that baffle investigators to paranormal encounters that defy logic, we dive deep into the stories that keep us awake at night. Join us as we explore the darkest corners of human experience and the most perplexing mysteries our world has to offer. Because sometimes, the questions are more fascinating than the answers.

    Nutty Putty Cave, Floyd Collins & Larry Murillo-Moncada - The Squirm Trilogy VOL 2. Ep.180

    Send us Fan Mail The Squirm Trilogy Vol. 2: Nutty Putty Cave, Floyd Collins & Larry Murillo-Moncada Ever listened to a story that made your shoulders tense, your stomach drop, and your feet suddenly feel very uncomfortable? Welcome to The Squirm Trilogy Vol. 2. In this episode, Kate and Sarah descend into three of the most claustrophobic and unsettling true stories ever told. These are tales of people who found themselves trapped in places where rescue seemed impossible, time was running out, and every movement only made things worse. First, we travel to Utah and the infamous Nutty Putty Cave, where John Jones became wedged upside down in a narrow passage deep underground. What began as a family caving trip turned into one of the most heartbreaking rescue attempts in modern history. Next, we step back to 1925 and meet Floyd Collins, the Kentucky cave explorer whose entrapment became a worldwide media sensation. As thousands followed every development through newspapers, rescuers battled impossible conditions in a desperate race against time. Finally, we explore the bizarre and tragic case of Larry Murillo-Moncada, a supermarket employee whose disappearance remained a mystery for nearly a decade. The shocking truth was eventually discovered in a place that had been searched countless times before. Three stories. Three people trapped. Three cases guaranteed to make you squirm. So, if you're uncomfortable in tight spaces, afraid of getting stuck, or simply enjoy hearing about some of the most extraordinary true stories ever recorded, this is an episode you won't forget. Just don't listen while crawling through a cave. #PerplexedPodcast #TheSquirmTrilogy #NuttyPuttyCave #JohnJones #FloydCollins #LarryMurilloMoncada #TrueCrimePodcast #MysteryPodcast #CaveRescue #Claustrophobia #UnsolvedMysteries #PerplexedPodcast Support the show Thank you for listening.

    Plane Crash 72 Days in the Andes | Survivor | Ep 176 Part One

    Send us Fan Mail This week, Sarah takes us deep into one of the most horrifying survival stories ever recorded — the 1972 Andes Plane Crash. What began as a routine flight carrying a Uruguayan rugby team across the snow-covered Andes Mountains quickly turned into an unimaginable nightmare when the plane smashed into the mountains at over 12,000 feet. Stranded in freezing temperatures with almost no food, no rescue coming, and death surrounding them at every turn, the survivors were forced to make decisions so disturbing that the story still shocks the world over 50 years later. .

    Brian Shaffer | Mystery | Ep.175

    Send us Fan Mail This week on Perplexed, Kate and Sarah dive headfirst into the baffling disappearance of Brian Shaffer — the medical student who walked into a bar in 2006 and seemingly vanished into thin air. But what starts as a deep dive into one of America’s most chilling unsolved mysteries quickly turns into one of the most heated debates the podcast has ever seen. Was Brian the victim of foul play, did he intentionally disappear, or is there something far stranger hiding in the gaps of the CCTV footage? As the theories spiral, so does the argument, with Kate and Sarah clashing harder than ever over what they believe really happened that night. Tensions rise, opinions fly, and for once… neither of them is willing to back down.  Support the show Thank you for listening.

    Israel Keyes | Murder | Ep.171

    Send us Fan Mail Israel Keyes was an American serial killer active in the United States between roughly 2001 and 2012. Known for his calculated and methodical approach, Keyes committed multiple murders across different states, often targeting victims at random. He buried “kill kits” (weapons, cash, and tools) in remote locations years in advance, which allowed him to carry out crimes with little immediate trace back to himself. Keyes avoided patterns that typically help investigators—he chose victims of varying ages and backgrounds, used different methods, and traveled extensively to separate his crimes geographically from his personal life. He was eventually arrested in 2012 after abducting and killing 18-year-old Samantha Koenig in Alaska. Evidence gathered after his arrest linked him to several other murders, though the full number of his victims remains unknown. While in custody, Keyes gave limited information to investigators and died by suicide later that year, leaving many questions about the extent of his crimes unresolved.
