Kenneth, what is the frequency? - William Tager

This episode explores the bizarre case of William Tager, the man who fatally shot a stagehand outside the NBC studios in 1994. The true crime story is infamous for Tager's confession to also being the attacker who assaulted CBS anchor Dan Rather in 1986, repeatedly asking: "Kenneth, what is the frequency?" We detail Tager's mental delusions—including his claims of being a time traveler—and his subsequent conviction, examining how his violent acts connected two major media incidents and became a lasting cultural phenomenon. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Strength in Numbers - Bay Area Heist

A massive, brazen smash-and-grab heist at Heller Jewelers in San Ramon, California, shocked the Bay Area. This episode details the daylight robbery where two dozen masked, armed thieves stormed the store. The suspects were temporarily trapped when the security doors locked, forcing them to shoot their way out. We explore the minute-long coordinated attack, the ensuing police chase tracked by drones and aerial surveillance, and the arrests of seven suspects. The case highlights a disturbing organized retail theft trend, where large rings use overwhelming force to target high-value goods. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Faded to Black - Napster

In 1999 our favorite albums were nearly $20, which is a lot of money if you're in high school and have no job. However, a software company called Napster came to our rescue. With this software, we had all of the world's music available at just the click of a mouse (and 4,728 minutes of wait time.). Over 60 million users of this service enjoyed unlimited downloads of our favorite artists. But one day, the music died. What happened?

Ballon Boy - The Heene Family

We explore the bizarre 2009 "Balloon Boy" hoax, where parents Richard and Mayumi Heene staged a national panic by claiming their six-year-old son, Falcon, was trapped in a runaway homemade flying saucer. This episode details the chaotic search, the moment Falcon was found, the on-air slip that exposed the stunt as a desperate bid for a reality show, and the felony charges and restitution that followed. We also cover the controversial 2020 pardon and hear from Falcon today, who still grapples with the fallout of the infamous media circus. -- For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Everything They Missed - Interview with Stephanie Tinsley

The 2007 murder of Danny Harris, a veteran and father, inside his Memphis apartment, was a case that quickly went cold. This episode features host Stephanie Tinsley of the podcast Everything They Missed, who has spent the past year re-investigating the case. It starts with a name—a suspect quickly dismissed—and then leads to a tangled web of overlooked evidence: a mysterious truck, a missing checkbook, and crucial fingerprints that never led to an arrest. Join us as we explore the vital clues that were missed, the voices that went unheard, and the truth behind Danny Harris's brutal murder. Follow Stephanie on social @thestephanietinsley!

I’ve been listening for a few years now after first hearing yall on Talk Is Jericho, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I usually put it on while I’m gaming or driving, and it always makes the time fly by. I’ll definitely be subscribing to Patreon soon to support y’all. Was wondering if yall ever covered the disappearance of Jason Landry—I’m from the college town where he went to school, and there’s been some talk about new evidence. Hopefully it’s true so his family can get some answers. Keep doing what you’re doing—the show just keeps getting better!
Love listening from the Sunflower State

I’ve been listening for years and don’t know why it took so long to leave a review! I really appreciate the respectful way that stories and cases are shared and would love to see you guys cover the unsolved murder of Tawnya Dawn Knight from our small rural town of Spring Hill, Kansas, with the same reverence I’ve heard you honor other victims.

They are easy to listen to and this is the first True Crime podcast I have found that the hosts are open about their faith. This is something that I appreciate and is hard to find. Thank you for what you do and the compassion you show to each victim and case.
