    EPISODE 83: Susan Kuhnhausen

    A man steps out from behind a bedroom door wearing yellow dish gloves and raises a claw hammer. Susan Kuhnhausen, a 51-year-old ER nurse in Portland, Oregon, has seconds to decide whether she becomes a headline or a survivor. What happens next is one of the most gripping true crime survivor stories we’ve ever covered, and it’s a raw reminder that the most dangerous moment in a breakup can be the moment you finally choose freedom. We walk through Susan’s life leading up to the attack, from her bold 1980s personal ad to the slow reveal that her marriage is built on control, resentment, and a partner who wants a small life on her dime. Then we break down the fight itself, how Susan uses training and instinct to stay alive, and why her decision to leave evidence matters as much as her decision to keep swinging. After the emergency is over, the case turns into a chilling conspiracy to commit murder, with clues that connect the attacker back to Susan’s ex and a motive tied to money, life insurance, and a paid-off house. We also talk about the reality of living in fear after you survive and the practical steps Susan takes to protect herself. To close out, we shake off the Rockville blues with our music feature: Wild Plains and their track “Say My Name,” because sometimes the best way to exhale after heavy true crime is to turn the volume up.

    Rockville Recap And Real Talk

    Rockville weekends don’t just give you a lineup, they give you a full-body story: dust, heat, storm warnings on repeat, and those perfect sets that make the struggle feel worth it. We’re coming at our Welcome to Rockville 2026 recap raw, live, and unedited, ranking performances by sound, crowd energy, stage presence, and overall vibe while we relive the best surprises and the biggest letdowns. We also get extremely practical about festival survival. Lindsay breaks down her clear, stadium-approved bag essentials for camping festivals and concert days, from antibacterial wipes and gum to backup cards when wristband payments act up. We talk hydration like it’s a headliner: Liquid I.V., frozen water bottles, and even picklebacks as a clutch electrolyte move. If you’ve ever dealt with porta potties, crowd surfers, or the “where do we stand so we don’t get kicked in the face” problem, you’ll feel seen. Then we run the weekend: Amon Amarth’s Viking-scale energy, Stained vocals that make us cry every time, Ice Nine Kills turning metal into horror theater, SpineShank delivering a 30-years-later moment, and the mad dash through weather delays to catch Parkway Drive, Paleface Swiss, and a massive Lorna Shore set. We wrap with why the covered Garage Stage was the MVP, plus Bloodywood, Hatebreed pit chaos, Demon Hunter’s surprise win, Cold Chamber’s sweat-soaked greatness, a taste of MCR, and Slaughter to Prevail closing the weekend loud enough to spark stage sound debates. If you’re planning Rockville, love rock and metal festival culture, or just want a real recap from people who camp it every year, hit play, subscribe, share the episode with your festival crew, and leave us a review with your own set ratings.

    EPISODE 82: Stories From W.T.R Orange Lot (RANDALL BLYTHE)

    A sweaty campsite morning at Welcome to Rockville turns into a surprisingly deep conversation about concert culture, safety, and what we owe each other in a crowd. We’re recording from the Orange Lot at Daytona International Speedway, so you’ll hear the real festival backdrop while we swap stories from night four, including the kind of chaotic glow-party lore and rail-life exhaustion that only makes sense when you’ve been living on adrenaline and dust. From there, we get real about crowd etiquette at rock and metal festivals: the people who shove to the front after you’ve waited for hours, the “I just got here” rail rush, and the thin line between moving through a crowd and disrespecting everyone around you. It’s funny until it isn’t, because crowd crush, stage rushing, and split-second reactions can change lives. That leads into our main focus: D. Randall “Randy” Bly of Lamb of God. We walk through his punk beginnings, Richmond’s scene, the long grind of touring, sobriety, and the harsh truth that merch sales keep many bands alive. Then we unpack the Prague, Czech Republic arrest that followed a tragic on-stage incident from years earlier, using Randy’s memoir Dark Days as a guide for what prison, fear, and public scrutiny look like up close. We also highlight his humanitarian side, charity work, and advocacy tied to Be The Match and bone marrow donation. If you care about Lamb of God, metal history, concert safety, or real redemption stories, hit play. Subscribe, share this with a festival friend, and leave us a review with your biggest crowd pet peeve.

    EPISODE 81: West Memphis Three PART 3 REVISIT

    Three teenagers get branded as monsters, a community falls hard for a satanic panic storyline, and a case held together by a false confession becomes “truth” for nearly two decades. We wrap our West Memphis Three series by following Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley from conviction into the realities people don’t like to picture: prison violence, death row, and years of solitary confinement that change a person’s body and brain. Then we track the counter-force that kept this from disappearing. Paradise Lost helps ignite public pressure, supporters build a real innocence movement, and Lori Davis turns a letter into a life’s mission. We talk about how documentaries, fundraising, and high-profile allies push the legal fight forward, why DNA evidence and alternate suspects matter even when the system resists, and how it feels to realize the “case closed” label can be more important than the actual truth. The turning point is the Alford plea: pleading guilty while maintaining innocence because prosecutors insist they could still win at trial. It’s a legal escape hatch that brings freedom, but not exoneration, not accountability, and not a clean ending. We close with what comes after release, including PTSD and rebuilding, plus Jason Baldwin’s work with Proclaimed Justice to help others facing wrongful conviction. If this series hits you, share it with a friend, follow the show, and leave a review so more people can find it. What do you think the justice system should do when new evidence collides with an old verdict? LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!!! Ready to explore more shocking true crime cases with us?

    EPISODE 80: West Memphis Three PART 2 REVISIT

    A small-town murder case collides with the peak hangover of the 1990s Satanic Panic, and the result is a lesson in how a narrative can outrun the facts. We’re rereleasing Part 2 of our West Memphis Three series because this case still lives under our skin, and because the details around Jessie Misskelley’s confession deserve to be heard with fresh ears. We break down who Jessie is, why his reported IQ and developmental delays matter, and how a vulnerable teen can be questioned until “I heard rumors” turns into “I was there.” We talk about Vicky Hutchinson, her son Aaron, the wired trailer, the reward money dangling in the background, and the disturbing reality that only 45 minutes of an 11 to 12 hour interrogation are recorded. If you care about police interrogation tactics, coerced confessions, and wrongful conviction red flags, this section is the heartbeat of the story. Then we step into the courtroom: judges restricting psychology testimony, prosecutors leaning hard on confession culture, and the way books, band shirts, and a so-called occult expert help paint Damien Echols and Jason Baldwin as monsters. We connect the dots to Paradise Lost and the media environment that made “satanic ritual” feel like evidence, even when timelines and claims don’t hold up. Listen through to the end, then come talk to us about what stuck with you most.

    EPISODE 79: West Memphis Three PART 1 REVISIT

    Three little boys disappear after a normal day of school, and West Memphis, Arkansas flips from worry to terror in a matter of hours. When their bodies are found in a muddy drainage ditch in Robin Hood Hills, the town wants an answer fast and the system starts acting like a story matters more than the truth. That’s where Part 1 of our West Memphis Three series begins.  We walk through the timeline of May 5 and May 6, 1993 and the details that still feel unreal decades later. Then we dig into early investigative turns that should have been treated like flashing red lights: the Bojangles bathroom call about a bleeding man, blood samples that later go missing, and how quickly unreliable tools like polygraph tests get used to create “deception” instead of clarity. If you care about true crime, wrongful convictions, and how evidence can be mishandled or ignored, this chapter of the case is essential.  From there, the episode zooms out to the cultural pressure cooker of the early 1990s. Satanic panic spreads through rumor, sermons, and police interviews, and Damien Echols becomes the perfect scapegoat because he’s a goth metal kid who doesn’t fit the Bible Belt mold. We also share why this case hit us so hard, and we end with our music tradition, spotlighting Actus Reus and their track “Merciless.”  If this story grabs you, subscribe so you don’t miss Part 2, share the episode with a friend, and leave us a review with your biggest question about the case.

    DRUNK ABOUT SOMETHING: CATHERINE KNIGHT AND THE IDAHO 4 RECAP

    A case can be horrifying on its own, then the internet shows up and makes it even uglier. We sit down with our drinks and recap two stories that hit hard for very different reasons: Catherine Knight in Australia and the Idaho 4 murders at 1122 King Road in Moscow, Idaho. Along the way we also talk about why certain true crime details stick in your brain, and why some stories take longer to shake than others. On the Catherine Knight side, we track the early instability, her life in Aberdeen, New South Wales, her job in the abattoir, and the escalating violence that keeps getting waved off until it’s too late. It’s a brutal reminder that “walking red flags” don’t usually appear overnight, and that repeated abuse often comes with a trail of public incidents that should have triggered bigger intervention. Then we shift to the Idaho 4 timeline: the party-house context, the roommates’ layouts and late-night movements, Dylan’s report of hearing things and seeing a man in black with bushy eyebrows, and the awful moment friends discover what happened. We also break down major investigation threads people keep asking about, including the knife sheath DNA, the white Hyundai Elantra, and the arrest of Bryan Kohberger, plus the larger conversation around misogyny, incel culture, and the scramble to assign motive. We also get real about the damage caused by online sleuthing and TikTok clout chasing, from the food truck video scrutiny to creepy accounts like “Papa Roger,” and why nobody gets to judge how a traumatized person “should” react. If you care about ethical true crime, accurate timelines, and treating victims like humans, this one is for you.

    EPISODE 78: The Idaho Four

    Four students share a busy off-campus house in Moscow, Idaho and within a tight window of minutes, a normal college weekend turns into the Idaho Four murders. We walk through the layout of 1122 King Road, the routines of a party house, and the chilling moment a surviving roommate reports seeing a masked stranger pass her door and leave through the sliding glass exit. It’s a case where confusion, alcohol, and “people come and go here” culture collide with something no one is prepared to name in real time. From there, we follow the investigation as it moves from rumors to evidence: surveillance video, a white Hyundai Elantra repeatedly showing up near the scene, and a knife sheath that becomes a critical forensic hinge. We talk about how DNA and investigative genetic genealogy can narrow a suspect even when there’s no obvious “rap sheet,” and why Bryan Kohberger’s criminology background adds an extra layer of dread rather than clarity. We also get honest about the internet side of modern true crime. Online sleuths can chase clout, misidentify bystanders, and pile pressure onto survivors who are already traumatized. Finally, we unpack incel ideology and misogyny as a broader backdrop for violence and entitlement, because rejection should never carry consequences beyond a simple “no.” If you care about respectful true crime storytelling, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more listeners can find us.
