    Deadly Catch

    Season 04 : British Isles
    Minisode : Deadly Catch : Moray Firth, Scotland

    Fishing is one of the oldest and most common methods of procuring food all over the world. That’s why a large percentage of the global population live near some body of water. Fishing can have its dangers, but with proper planning and safety measures, many fishermen make it back to shore with their catch in one piece. Sometimes though, the tides can turn.

    Magdalene Laundries

    Season 04 : British Isles
    Episode 04 : Magdalene Laundries : Ireland

    Historically, it’s never been easy to be a woman. Even today in fact, depending on what part of the world you live in it can be excruciatingly difficult to live a life as a member of the fairer sex. But while things like the constant threat of sexual harassment or not having access to medical treatments are a sad reality in the modern day, that’s arguably nothing compared to what the women of Ireland had to go through between the 18th and 20th centuries. Most people know about the oppression suffered by women in the past and applaud the progress made since then. Sometimes though, the situation was even worse than you’ve been told.

    Tainted Blood

    Tainted Blood

    Season 04 : British Isles
    Episode 03 : Tainted Blood : UK

    Today, the risk of getting a bloodborne disease is rather low unless you engage in a number of high risk behaviors. It’s also why you aren’t allowed to donate blood if you do and donated blood is tested before being put into use. When you’re in a situation where you need a blood transfusion, the last thing a medical facility wants is for you to also contract something like Hepatitis or HIV. They do everything they can to ensure the blood is clean. Sometimes though, other people’s decisions put your life in jeopardy.

    The Viking Age

    Season 04 : British Isles
    Minisode : The Viking Age : Ireland

    You hear a lot of people complain these days about people immigrating to other countries. Today, many people move to other countries for reasons such as employment, family, or safety from a dangerous situation. That wasn’t always the case for many countries in the past. A thousand years ago, it was common for outsiders to arrive and raid the foreign land, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. Sometimes though, they just never left.

    Lane Bryant Shooting

    Lane Bryant Shooting

    Jennifer and Brian Bishop didn’t get a lot of time to themselves with three children, especially since their youngest was only five months old. But they’d managed to carve out a weekend in February of 2008 to go to Chicago. Brian worked in roofing and wanted to attend a roofing convention there. Jennifer had managed to get the weekend off of her job as an ICU nurse and the family took off for a relaxing family getaway. Unfortunately their happy family outing would turn to tragedy when they encountered someone sinister.

Really enjoy this podcast

I’ve been listening to his other channel he has
“ This is Monsters “ for awhile now and I think this is a great addition just wish the episodes were a little longer 💙💙

eg portland ,

Very entertaining

I love This is Monsters so I finally gave this podcast a listen and it is really good. The narrator is great at cramming a lot of info into a well written narrative. His voice is also pleasant and I like his droll humor. The worst part is those casino ads. I can’t figure out how to contribute so I can skip the ads.
