    Episode 359 - Bad Brits: Featuring Wine & Crime

    Episode 359 - Bad Brits: Featuring Wine & Crime

    This week on RedHanded we’re joined by some new friends from across the pond - Lucy and Amanda aka Wine & Crime! Given our geographical and cultural differences we thought it would be fun to discuss some “Bad Brits”, as well as give our new mates a bit of insight into the British way of life.

    So tune in for the tale of Pottery Cottage, and the story of the “Teacup Poisoner”, two British true crime classics that might sound quaint, but are anything but.

    Episode 358 - Peter Plumley-Walker: The Trial of the Teenage Dominatrix - Part 2

    Episode 358 - Peter Plumley-Walker: The Trial of the Teenage Dominatrix - Part 2

    Three trials, countless corrupt officers, and years behind bars faced Renee Chignell, after she and her boyfriend, were accused of the murder of 51-year-old British cricket umpire Peter Plumley-Walker in their ramshackle sex dungeon.

    Renee was adamant Peter’s death had been a tragic accident – but it would take years of jail time, heartbreak, and her own mother going behind bars, to convince anyone she was telling the truth.

    Listen Now: Hysterical

    Listen Now: Hysterical

    Hysterical investigates a mysterious illness that spreads among a group of high school girls in upstate New York. What is causing their sudden, often violent symptoms? Is there something in the water or inside the school? Or is it “all in their head?” The series examines the outbreak in LeRoy, NY, believed by some to be the most severe case of mass hysteria since the Salem Witch Trials. In his search for answers, Dan Taberski (9/12, Missing Richard Simmons, Running from Cops) explores other seemingly inexplicable events of the last few years – CIA officers being crippled with nausea and vertigo; cops OD'ing from exposure to fentanyl – and discovers they’re far more connected than we realize.

    From Wondery and Pineapple Street Studios, this 7-part series forces us to grapple with the mysteries of our own minds, and reckon with a contagion that we thought was long dead, but may be the defining disorder of our time.

    Follow Hysterical on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can binge all episodes of Hysterical early and ad-free right now by joining Wondery+ at wondery.fm/Hysterical_FD.

    ShortHand: Mother Teresa

    ShortHand: Mother Teresa

    The kindly smiling face of the Catholic Church, or an anti-abortion pro-life homophobe? The story of the world’s most famous religious influencer isn’t quite what you’d expect. From selling babies, to having serious doubts about her faith, what else is lurking in Mother Teresa’s closet other than some old fashioned habits?

    This is the ShortHand.

    Episode 357 - Peter Plumley-Walker: Divorce, Death & Debauchery Down Under - Part 1

    Episode 357 - Peter Plumley-Walker: Divorce, Death & Debauchery Down Under - Part 1

    How does a “true British gentleman”, complete with love of cricket and handlebar moustache, end up dead at the bottom of a waterfall in New Zealand with his limbs bound and lashes to his buttocks? This is the question that faced police in 1989, when a tourist boat found the body of 51-year-old cricket umpire Peter Plumley-Walker floating at the bottom of Huka Falls.

    To find out the answers you need to come with us on a journey down under involving a 19-year-old sex worker, her 35-year-old boyfriend, and their budget bondage basement.

    ShortHand: Disaster on Denali

    ShortHand: Disaster on Denali

    The public response to “the worst mountaineering accident in America’s history” predictably focused on what – or who – was to blame. After all, seven died in ghoulish circumstances, in what some saw as an entirely preventable tragedy.

    But in reality – despite their surly, inexperienced Mormon guide and lots of extremely questionable decisions – the mountain was always going to have the last word.

Volume Issues

Please please please, stop whispering or mumbling under your breath every time you make a joke, tell a related story, or talk about something horrifying. Some of us have hearing issues and even with the volume turned to max, the mumbles and whispers are way too quiet. Or at least raise the volume, your ads are already are way louder.
