    The Death of Vince McMahon and a Wrestling Wikipedia Mystery

    Step into the ring for a tale that intertwines the scripted world of professional wrestling with a grim twist of reality, a mysterious Wikipedia entry that may have predicted a murder, and the unforeseen chain of events that changed an entire industry. In the world of professional wrestling, dramatic storylines are the norm, but one of the most controversial was the kayfabe demise of Vince McMahon. In 2007, the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) aired a segment as their weekly Monday night wrestling program RAW went off the air, where McMahon's character was killed in a limousine explosion. However, the planned storyline took a tragic turn when the real-life death of professional wrestler Chris Benoit occurred shortly after. How does this all relate to the internet?

    The Dead Internet Theory

    Most of us have long accepted that we can't trust everything we see on the internet. But what if it is worse than that? What if the internet as a whole is fake? There is a conspiracy theory growing in popularity, that posits that the internet died in 2016 and the social web we once knew, has since been replaced by AI. This week we explore The Dead Internet Theory. Note: The Dead Internet Theory is a speculative concept and the experiences shared in this episode are anecdotal. The aim is to foster curiosity and contemplation rather than provide any definitive answers.

    Meeting Your Heroes | The Mysterious John Constantine Sightings

According to accounts found online from many comic book writers and artists (including Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman) that is exactly what happened to them. Is it possible that these artists and writers actually dreamt their creations into existence? Is this the work of Tulpamancery? Or just a case of overworked creators seeing things that weren't there?

    Was The Golden State Killer Active on His Own Message Board?

    For four decades the mystery behind the identity of The Golden State killer became the obsession of many True-Crime fans and amateur sleuths. Even after the arrest of Joeseph Deangelo in 2018 and his subsequent conviction, questions still linger. One that many still have, is whether the killer himself was an active member of some of the message boards and online groups dedicated to unmasking him. This week we try to get to the bottom of another fascinating internet mystery and look at one suspect in particular, CBK. A member of the popular Probards group and a user many on those forums swear was DeAngelo himself.
