TRUE CRIME
In the 1980s and 90s, Satan and his followers were accused of brainwashing children, sacrificing babies, and infiltrating North American society on a massive scale — yet these thousands of alleged Satanists were nowhere to be found. Even so, the narrative became embedded in our cultural memory, warping everything it touched — including the lives of innocent people.. And it never quite died out. In a new 8-part series, Sarah Marshall (You’re Wrong About) explores the tangled web of the Satanic Panic, in a journey that will take you everywhere from Victoria, B.C. to rural Kentucky to San Antonio, Texas. This is a show about the people who experienced the Satanic Panic in real-time — the believers, the skeptics, the bystanders, and the wrongfully-convicted. What was it like to be a psychologist told to look for Satanists in every case; a mother slowly recovering memories of supposed Satanic abuse; a teenager accused of conspiracy to murder? The stories of these eyewitnesses point us toward the real underlying problems — individual and societal — that the Panic was a response to. The fault, as ever, was not with Satanists, but in ourselves.

Love the podcast, but sound is off

06/01/2023

Zoooiie

I really enjoy this podcast, but something is weird with the sound, sometimes I have to turn it up really loud to hear and sometimes it’s super loud. The mixing was a bit off in the last few episodes. Thank you for all your hard work on this case!
Why the long discussion on the state of her corpse??

Xbound24

Why does episode 6 or 7 have an incredibly long discussion on the decomposition of a corpse in various potential locations?? That is incredibly tasteless when they have not found her body and have no idea the state it might be in, or even if there IS a corpse. This feels clumsy and the hosts come off as grossly inexperienced. If I was her family I would be disgusted.
Great podcast

I’ve enjoyed this podcast so much and can visualize the people and setting in the pit so easily due to the descriptions. Please update. I need an ending to this great mystery. It’s so weird how I can see the gravel pit and her truck. Did they find her body?
No final episode after more than a year?

What a disappointment to get to the end of 12 episodes and not know what happened in the case. Last updated in 2021. Surely there is resolution by now???
