Operating in the early 1900s, Fish preyed on the most vulnerable, leaving behind a trail of unimaginable horror that shocked even seasoned investigators.

    S2 Ep 7- The Amazon Machine: When “Conspiracy” Becomes Reality

    For years, critics have accused Amazon of shady practices—pushing workers beyond their limits, squeezing small businesses, and quietly building an internet infrastructure empire. At first, many of these claims were brushed off as conspiracy theories. But over time, investigations, lawsuits, and insider reports began to reveal something surprising… some of those “conspiracies” weren’t conspiracies at all. In this episode, we break down the controversial realities behind the Amazon empire: the lawsuits and reports claiming delivery drivers were forced to pee in bottles to keep up with impossible quotas, accusations that Amazon pressured sellers to offer their lowest prices on its platform, and the staggering reach of Amazon Web Services—the cloud infrastructure that powers huge portions of the internet. Is Amazon just an innovative tech giant or something much bigger?

    S2 Ep 6- Consumed by Belief: The Anneliese Michel Story

    In 1976, 23-year-old Anneliese Michel died after undergoing 67 exorcisms over the course of nearly a year. She believed she was possessed. Her family believed it. Even priests became convinced they were witnessing something beyond medical explanation.Anneliese experienced seizures, visions, and voices, but as her condition worsened, medical explanations gave way to religious intervention. What followed was a tragic collision between psychology, faith, and perception.This is not just a story about exorcism. It’s a story about the terrifying power of belief, and what happens when the mind becomes both the creator—and the prisoner—of its own reality.
