MODERN DE SADE: A Conversation about Peter Sotos (feat. Justin Drown of Obscura)

I think Anita Dalton describes Peter Sotos best—so I'll borrow her words: "In reading Sotos, you must understand that you will read that which cannot be unread. You must have the stomach for it and it is not his fault if you don’t. Morality is not needed here. Just a willingness to see what you will never be able to unsee." Full review here: https://www.oddthingsconsidered.com/selfish-little-the-annotated-lesley-ann-downey-by-peter-sotos/ This article by Sam Gaines also offers also an excellent introduction to Sotos' work: https://pdfcoffee.com/peter-sotos-eye-pdf-free.html Full Sources: https://www.oddthingsconsidered.com/selfish-little-the-annotated-lesley-ann-downey-by-peter-sotos/ https://www.scribd.com/doc/305914323/Peter-Sotos-EYE https://www.centrepompidou.fr/en/ressources/media/JWFOtKs https://youtu.be/ci--roN7qrY?si=VPRO9AQgPbXmbQt0 Check out my other interview with Justin Drown on the side-project The True Crime Pod Presents. https://pod.link/1549611168/episode/47a9e206594b21b81f6b05d0295a821d

VHS VAULT | Dr Phil: "My Husband Is Attracted To Little Girls..."

Les Gross is our co-host today—and his reaction when I tell him the name of the episode we're watching...classic. Though, admittedly, I had the same guttural response when I stumbled across this gem. Leave it to Dr. Phil to find what must be the only self-confessed pedo on planet earth who would willingly announce his proclivities to an audience of 10 million. One thing I found interesting is the contrast between this guy's attitude versus that of Mark Redwine (from Season 1). Anyways, give it a listen and then send us your thoughts. Go to https://www.tapesfromthedarkside.com/ and tap the microphone button on the bottom right to leave a message. We'll listen to it on the next show. — Pictures and a video clip for this episode: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp6SphoMJ8p/ — Co-host: Less Gross Here's an episode of his that we talked about on the show and one I'd highly recommend. tinyurl.com/worsethanfiction Keep an eye out for his new show premiering soon: "Hollows of the Damned".

MIXTAPE | TZ READS: "I follow my wife's reddit account..."

It's not often that an amateur fiction story gives me a chill. In fact, I've been searching for one worth sharing with you for months and had mostly given up... Then I came across a reddit page called r/thoughtindustry and this tale about a snooping husband. They've graciously agreed to let me share this story with you. https://www.reddit.com/r/thoughtindustry/ If you enjoy it then please go follow their page through the link above. It's free and you'll be able to read more of their stories. Have you ever experienced a lover who you found out was spying on you?

VHS VAULT | Jerry Springer: "Racist Kids"

Today on the VHS VAULT we review an infamous episode of Jerry Springer. This is not like most episodes of Jerry where people argue about paternity tests and infidelity. In this episode, Jerry's guests are a group of children that have been indoctrinated to believe in white supremacy. Instead of the usual audience of adults, this time they are children who challenge the beliefs of their racist peers. Here's the video version: VHS VAULT | Jerry Springer: "Racist Kids" https://youtu.be/2zpY3QoXC6U Give us a call. 501-420-DARK 501-420-3275 We linked the number above to a voicemail.

MIXTAPE | RAW: My Drug Story

A few things I got wrong. Fentanyl is 100x more potent than morphine (not 50x). Carfentanil is 10,000x more potent than morphine. If anyone wants to talk with me about addiction or recovery, please reach out anytime. I believe recovery is possible for anyone. tapesfromthedarksidepod@gmail.com Also, here's a good helpline # I found for those located in the USA. 1-800-662-HELP (4357) https://www.samhsa.gov/find-help/national-helpline SAMHSA’s National Helpline.

MIXTAPE | TZ interviewed on "The Other Side of Midnight"

I was interviewed by a late night radio show this year called The Other Side of Midnight with Frank Morano. Frank was an extremely gracious host and he had done his research. I was surprised to learn that he knew all about our past seasons and he asked some thoughtful questions. I'm going back on his show this Wednesday (December 7th) at 2:30am EST to talk about the Daniel Shaver case. Tune in live if you can! https://wabcradio.com/show/the-other-side-of-midnight-with-frank-morano/# Tap the "listen live" button at the top of the page. Disclaimer, this is a conservative radio station...but that'll make it extra interesting to hear their take on Daniel Shaver. tz ps, if you've been around a while you might remember 'the aftershow' and 'the b-side' ... well MIXTAPE is another idea we're trying out that's a combination of both. Plus, some other stuff. Interviews, personal stories, a brand new sideshow concept... There will be new audio coming to your feed soon on mixtape so keep an eye (and an ear) out.
