Metasode 5: October Update

Gary Heidnik

The 1980's is one of the most tumultuous decades in American crime history. Those years set the tone for the classic image of a serial killer or deranged madman lurking in the shadows. Gary Heidnik was one of those men, committing crimes that would inspire Hollywood fiction that reshaped the horror genre. This week, Joe tells the Dark Tale of Gary Heidnik and the atrocities he would commit upon 6 women over the course of 5 months. In the winter of 1986/87, Gary Heidnik was hellbent on having his own harem of women hidden away from the rest of the world in his basement on Marshall Street in Philadelphia.  Like our podcast?

Aint Justice For All

Elisa Lam

This week, the crew is back together and we're talking about the circumstances surrounding the disappearance and subsequent death of Elisa Lam.  A 21 year old Canadian university student, who was on a solo trip along the west coast of the US before mysteriously vanishing without a trace leaving behind only a single eerie surveillance video.  The video itself has since gone viral many time over, and spawned many theories from murder to demonic possession.   Many are still trying to crack the case and in this episode we'll review the evidence and bring own conclusions to the table.  What did you see in that video? Let us know and leave a review for us if you like the show! www.adarktale.com Twitter/IG: @ADarkTalePod @Joe_TheHost @JamesNuzz Clip Sources from CNN,  CBS LA Original music and FX this week courtesy of CO.AG Music Songs: "The Lost" "A Room with No View" "Case Files"

The Unexplained Death of Elisa Lam

BRINLEY SNYDER

A new episode, a new format. Joe takes to the mic solo in a case that is just as shocking as it is heartbreaking. Not to worry though, James will return in the very near future!  In this episode, we're talking about the shocking deaths of two young children found in their home by their very own mother. 8 year old Conner and his sister, 4 year old Brinley died in September of 2019, but the story of their deaths sounds like something out of a Steven King novel and isn't over yet. What unfolds is one of the Darkest Tales told yet and this cannot be stressed enough. This is the story of Conner &amp; Brinley Snyder. Like our podcast?

The Problem with John McAfee

James &amp; Joe leave the mic's on after an episode to discuss some recent true crime news. First, the recent post-verdict murder of a key witness in the high profile murder trial of Dallas police officer Amber Guyger and the surprise of the overall outcome of the trial itself. Then it's back to Chris Watts yet again with more news from his cell and a new book being written about him. Joe gets a little upset.  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Like our podcast?

Ted Kaczynski

This week, Joe and James discuss the reign of terror cast upon a nation by a man who isolated himself from society, and cast nationwide fear for almost 2 decades, Ted Kaczynski AKA the UNABOMBER.  Discussions on WHY someone so brilliant would turn so dark lead to looking back at Kaczynski's view towards the world and how his life experiences may have shaped that view. As well as discussing the investigative process that overwhelmed the FBI, the topic of Ted's younger brother David comes up. David was the the key in unlocking the mystery of who the UNABOMBER was. Also, a 'guest' jumps in for some quick fact-checking.   Please take a minute and head over to Apple Podcast to give A Dark Tale a quick rating, maybe a review of a particular episode.

UNABOMBER - Part 1: The Early Life and Times of Ted Kaczynski

This week Joe and James have a discussion on the terms "Psychopath" and "Sociopath", how they fit into modern psychology and what is specifically meant by those terms when used in every day conversation.  A loose conversation which touches on the theoretical foundations of what makes one a psychopath, how every day people may exhibit the same traits at one time or another, the damaging ways in which some people process emotions, and why Super Smash Bros is total bullshit.  We also follow up on the case of the Death of Eric Garner, where officer Pantaleo was not indicted for the homicide.  (Update between recording and uploading, Pantaleo's employment with the NYPD has been terminated as of August 19th)   Reach us at:   email : DarkTalePodcast@gmail.com  Twitter : @ADarkTalePod ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Referenced NBC clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E23mO0uVwAM ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our intro is currently "Hitman" by Kevin Macleod  (incompetech.com) - Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

A Discussion on Terminology

Sarah Turney

Today we hear the tale of Alissa Turney who, in 2001, went missing from Phoenix, Arizona.  With nothing but a note saying she was running away her stepfather, Michael Roy Turney, retains she ran to California to this day.  Years later, Michael was arrested for stashing home-made explosives with intent to commit an act of domestic terrorism and his claim that Alissa had run away was looked at with more scrutiny.  While Michael was imprisoned, his daughter and Alissa's sister Sarah had begun to see the truth that her father was a completely different man than she had previously believed. Today she joins us and tells us the story from her perspective, how she began to see past her fathers narrative, and why she believes that Michael killed her sister. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Special thank you to Sarah Turney for joining us visit her website for more information at: https://justiceforalissa.com/ Another great podcast that covers every aspect of this story is Missing Alissa, a podcast by Ottavia Zappala https://www.missingalissa.com/ Another special thanks to Kevin MacLeod for his song "Hitman" which we use as our intro and background music through the episode. https://incompetech.com -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Reach us at: Email:  DarkTalePodcast@gmail.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/ADarkTalepod
