    Chronicles of the Dark Web Vol.1

    Halloween and spooky season may have just ended, but it only felt right to sneak one last spine-chilling tale in before we all shift gears toward more light-hearted holiday fare. What if I told you this episode doesn't just contain one dark tale, but four??! Oh, and I even tossed a crackling fire in the background audio to really complete the "scary stories around the campfire" feel! This episode marks the beginning of an occasional series I will update over the years called "Chronicles of the Dark Web". Expect dark and twisted tales claiming to stem from the Dark Web, with my color commentary and dissection of the stories! Are these horrendous stories true, or merely the works of a creative mind karma-farming on Reddit? Only one way to find out. Let's get strange. Support the show on Patreon! Like us on Facebook!

    Bitcoin Billionaire: Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?

    Worth approximately 8.8 billion US dollars, Satoshi Nakamoto is the mysterious creator of Bitcoin. Who is Satoshi though, why does no one seem to know their true identity, and why has Satoshi not cashed in on this incredible wealth? Today's episode explores all this and more! Oh, and I take a couple jabs at the creator of McAfee antivirus, John McAfee! Let's get strange! Support the show on Patreon! Like us on Facebook! Follow us on Twitter!

    Saddam's Playstation 2 Stockpile / Post-Apocalyptic Aladdin

    In a short and sweet episode this week, I kick back and talk about an old rumor that went around in the early 2000s, involving Saddam Hussein stockpiling Playstation 2 consoles for military use. I also discuss some really cool technical moments for Sony consoles, and even try to ruin your childhood just a little bit by introducing you to a weird theory involving Disney's Aladdin from 1992.

    Lake City Quiet Pills

    This episode dives into one of the craziest internet conspiracies from the past decade surrounding the assassination of a high-value target within a terrorist organization, a pervert old man that was a moderator for the subreddit /r/jailbait and has since passed, hidden messages within the HTML code of an image hosting site, a blowout party that would make the 2012 film 'Project X' look like a kid's birthday party, and how these all somehow connect.

    The Lavender Town Suicides/Kevin The Jigsaw Killer

    This week's episode dives head first into the story and origin of The Lavender Town Suicides that allegedly took place shortly after the release of Pokemon Red and Green in Japan during 1996. Also discussed in this episode is the theory that Kevin McCallister grew up to become the Jigsaw Killer from the famed 'Saw' movie franchise. Seems bogus? We'll see!
