Last week in Part 1, we sat down with musician, author, and racial bridge-builder Dr. Daryl Davis—a man who has spent decades sitting across from members of the Ku Klux Klan and asking the world’s most disarming question: “How can you hate me when you don’t even know me?” Daryl shared how simple human curiosity opened doors that fear had sealed shut, and how that first conversation led to dozens of Klansmen walking away from hate. In Part 2, we go deeper.Daryl brings us inside the psychology of extremism, the anatomy of white supremacy, and the personal cost of choosing to confront hate face-to-face. He talks about confronting Klan leaders, gaining access to secret meetings, the moment he realized he could influence deradicalization, and the unexpected friendships that formed along the way. We explore what makes people vulnerable to extremist ideology, what pulls them out, and what every one of us can learn from his approach. This conclusion is powerful, challenging, and unexpectedly hopeful.If Part 1 showed how one conversation can change a person, Part 2 shows how those conversations can change an entire movement.

In Part 2, we pick up inside Durham’s 1971 school charrette — the collision point where a civil rights legend and a Klan leader are forced to sit face-to-face for ten days and decide the fate of the city’s schools. What begins as shouting, sabotage, and years of rage finally cracks open into something neither of them saw coming: recognition. Across long days and brutal night sessions, Ann Atwater and C.P. Ellis stop fighting at each other and start fighting to be heard. Their defenses crumble, their fears surface, and the truth slips out — their children are suffering under the same broken system. And when integration is finally put to a public vote, every eye in Durham waits for one man to choose who he really is. Then C.P. Ellis does the unthinkable: he stands, admits he’s been wrong, and tears up his Klan card in front of the entire room. What follows isn’t a miracle but rather more of a transformation. Durham moves toward full school integration, and Ann and C.P. begin a decades-long partnership that reshapes their city, their families, and ultimately, each other. From enemies to advocates to inseparable friends, their story becomes one of the most unlikely — and important — alliances in civil rights history. This is the moment hate loses its footing… and history shifts. **Tune into our Part 2 Interview with Dr. Daryl Davis on Friday 11/20/25**

Dr. Daryl Davis is an international recording artist who has performed and toured all 50 States and around the world. He has performed extensively with Chuck Berry, The Legendary Blues Band (formerly The Muddy Waters Blues Band), Elvis Presley’s Jordanaires, and many others. He is also a man who has sat across from members of the Ku Klux Klan—by choice. In this powerful first half of our conversation, Daryl Davis takes us back to the experiences that shaped his extraordinary journey into the heart of hate. From a childhood spent overseas surrounded by diversity to a brutal awakening at age ten in 1968 America, Daryl’s story begins with one haunting question: “How can you hate me when you don’t even know me?” That question would lead him into smoky bars, Klan rallies, and face-to-face conversations with men who once wore hoods and carried torches. In Part 1, we trace how a chance encounter at a Maryland bar set Daryl on a path that would change his life—and hundreds of others. What started as a quest to understand racism became an unexpected lesson in humanity, courage, and the disarming power of genuine curiosity. Tune in next week for part 2 of this captivating interview with Daryl Davis.  To purchase Dr. Davis' books, click HERE. 

In 1971 Durham, North Carolina, a civil rights activist and a Ku Klux Klan leader are forced to share a table—and a title. Before that moment, though, their collision was decades in the making. In this first half of our two-part series, we trace Ann Atwater’s rise from public housing organizer to unshakable community force, and C.P. Ellis’s descent from working-class humiliation to Klan leadership—two lives sculpted by poverty, power, and the machinery of racial division. When a burned school and federal desegregation orders push the city into crisis, officials choose an unlikely fix: a “charrette”—a community planning experiment that will lock Atwater and Ellis in the same room, under the same fluorescent lights, for ten days. Part One ends where history starts to tremble: Day One of the charrette, when contempt meets contempt and neither side intends to yield. Part Two drops next week—covering the confrontation, the fracture, and the impossible friendship that followed. And this Friday, listen to our exclusive interview with Daryl Davis—the man who sits face-to-face with the Klan today, living proof that the same collision still changes people in real time.

This Shortcide is all glitter, salt rims, and felony-level delusion. First up — Rita Crundwell: the beloved small-town comptroller who quietly drained an entire Illinois city for 22 years to fund her rhinestone horse empire. She stole $53.7 million from Dixon — the biggest municipal fraud in U.S. history — all while winning world championships and convincing everyone she was basically the financial Mother Teresa of the Midwest. Then — Gina Champion-Cain: San Diego’s self-proclaimed “Queen of Hospitality” who turned liquor license lending into the largest female-run Ponzi scheme in American history. Nearly $400 million moved through her fake escrow world of margaritas, charity galas, champagne fountains, and shredded evidence. Two women.Two wildly different aesthetics — horses vs. happy hour.Same core plot: white-collar crime dressed up as glamour. These aren’t bank robbers in ski masks — these are fraud queens in sequins, stilettos, and beachfront branding. Welcome to Wildcide: where the scams sparkle just as hard as the crimes hurt.

In this episode of Wildcide, we sit down with one of the most influential figures in modern criminal profiling — Dr. Ann Wolbert Burgess, the real-life inspiration behind Dr. Wendy Carr from Netflix’s Mindhunter. Long before Mindhunter brought behavioral analysis into pop culture, Burgess was already inside the real FBI’s Behavioral Science Unit, decoding the minds of serial offenders and changing how investigators understood trauma, violence, and victim behavior. From her pioneering research in victimology to her groundbreaking interviews that helped shape the FBI’s approach to behavioral profiling, Burgess reveals what it really takes to understand both predator and prey. She walks us through the psychology behind notorious cases — including her role in the Ski Mask Rapist investigation — and explains how empathy became one of the most powerful tools in criminal investigation. This isn’t just a look into the mind of a killer — it’s a look into the mind of the woman who helped the world understand them.   About Dr. Burgess: Ann Wolbert Burgess, D.N.Sc., APRN, FAAN, is an internationally recognized pioneer in the assessment and treatment of victims of trauma and abuse, and author of A Killer by Design: Murderers, Mindhunters, and My Quest to Decipher the Criminal Mind. She has received numerous honors including the Sigma Theta Tau International Audrey Hepburn Award, the American Nurses’ Association Hildegard Peplau Award, and the Sigma Theta Tau International Episteme Laureate Award. Her courtroom testimony has been described as “groundbreaking,” and she has been called a “nursing pathfinder.”Her research with victims began when she co-founded, with Boston College sociologist Lynda Lytle Holmstrom, one of the first hospital-based crisis counseling programs at Boston City Hospital. She then worked with FBI Academy special agents to study serial offenders, and the links between child abuse, juvenile delinquency, and subsequent perpetration. Her work with Boston College nursing colleague Carol Hartman led to the study of very young victims and the impact of trauma on their growth and development, their families and communities. Her work continues in the study of elder abuse in nursing homes, cyberstalking, and Internet sex crimes. She teaches courses in Victimology, Forensic Science, Forensic Mental Health, Case Studies in Forensics and Forensic Science Lab.   To purchase Dr. Burgess' newest book, click HERE.

Between 1978 and 1981, a quiet terror crept through the southern United States.Women and couples were attacked in their own homes—bound, blindfolded, and violated by a man wearing a ski mask who seemed to appear and vanish like a ghost.His name was Jon Barry Simonis, and by the time he was caught, he’d confessed to more than 80 rapes across 12 states. Investigators now believe the real number was closer to 130. But this isn’t just another case of brutality, it's a case about the science that emerged from it. When the FBI’s Behavioral Science Unit—still in its infancy—noticed the pattern, they turned to a woman who would change criminal profiling forever: Dr. Ann Wolbert Burgess, a nurse and researcher whose revolutionary work in victimology helped agents read the psychological signatures buried inside each crime. Burgess’s insights led the FBI to label Simonis a vindictive rapist—a man driven not by lust, but by power, humiliation, and control. Her method of studying what victims experienced became the blueprint for modern profiling, trauma-informed interviewing, and the way we understand serial offenders today. In this episode, Bailey and Chelsea unravel how a soft-spoken Army veteran with an IQ of 128 weaponized patience, intelligence, and dominance to terrorize communities—and how Burgess’s collaboration with the FBI finally exposed the mind behind the mask. Because sometimes the most dangerous predators aren’t the ones who act without thought. They’re the ones who plan every breath of fear you take.   Don't miss our mind-boggling interview with Dr. Ann Burgess dropping Friday 10/31/25.   Thanks for listening!

Some people will do anything to be noticed — post, pose, or even escape from jail.This week, Bailey and Chelsea dive into the wild world of “Pick Me” criminals — THE MOST obnoxious types of criminals where their egos outweighed any rational thought.  First up, Bailey unpacks the bizarre case of Antoine Massey, the New Orleans fugitive who escaped jail, then went full influencer-on-the-run — livestreaming his manhunt and turning his capture into a clout-chasing spectacle. Then Chelsea heads to Colombia- where 'Pick Me' Pablo aka Pablo Escobar- where his ego outlived him — literally — through a herd of illegally imported hippos that now rule rivers like they’re cartel territory. It’s a double feature of attention addiction: one man desperate to be seen, another so obsessed with being remembered that his chaos keeps breeding decades after death. Get ready for drama, delusion, and a dash of dark comedy — because in this episode, we're dealing with the MOST Pick Me vibes.   Thanks for listening!

Trigger Warning: This interview discusses sexual compulsive behaviors, juvenile sexual offending, trauma, and family dysfunction. Listener discretion is advised. In this episode, Bailey and Chelsea sit down with Samantha, a Licensed Therapist and Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), who specializes in treating individuals struggling with sexual compulsive behaviors, pornography addiction, and partners affected by sexual offenses. Drawing on her background in nursing, addiction recovery, and trauma therapy, Samantha offers both clinical insight and personal compassion for clients facing shame, secrecy, and recovery challenges. Samantha discusses her time working with juvenile sex offenders in a Florida diversion program—where adolescents were treated therapeutically rather than incarcerated. She describes how her perception of these youths evolved from discomfort to empathy, emphasizing that many of them were “damaged at a young age” and required treatment, not lifelong punishment. She highlights the emotional and developmental factors behind harmful behaviors and how accountability and empathy can coexist in treatment. The conversation expands into prevention and early intervention, addressing the role of family dysfunction, exposure to sexual content, and the accessibility of pornography. Samantha and the hosts explore how shame often fuels secrecy and relapse, and why open communication, education, and trauma-informed therapy are key to preventing future harm. The episode closes with a message of hope and awareness: there are trained professionals ready to work with adolescents and families navigating these painful realities, and early, compassionate intervention saves lives and futures.   About Our Guest:  Samantha is a Licensed Therapist and Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) who specializes in treating individuals struggling with sexual compulsive behaviors, pornography addiction, and the partners affected by those behaviors — including partners of individuals who have offended sexually. She provides a nonjudgmental, confidential, and safe environment for clients to explore the areas of their lives where they may struggle. Her clinical experience spans sexual addiction and compulsivity, substance abuse, dual diagnosis, depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, codependency, and relationship challenges. Samantha also works with clients experiencing chronic pain and tinnitus. She is actively licensed in Florida, New York, and Tennessee. With extensive experience treating eating disorders such as compulsive overeating, anorexia, and bulimia, Samantha uses a cognitive-behavioral approach and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help clients process and heal from past and present trauma. She also applies specialized interventions to address chronic pain. Samantha believes that everyone has the capacity to release addictive patterns and live a life grounded in peace, connection, and purpose. Her passion lies in helping individuals and families overcome struggle, rediscover self-worth, and build a meaningful life of recovery and wholeness.   Contact Samantha – Samantha Ammann, RN, LCSW, CSAT, RYT    

Trigger Warning: This episode contains detailed discussion of sexual assault involving minors and may be distressing to some listeners. In 2021, two assaults inside Loudoun County schools ignited one of the most divisive moral panics in modern America. The perpetrator—a sixteen-year-old named Hunter Heckel—became the face of a national storm that fused crime, politics, and gender identity into a single explosive narrative. Parents demanded answers. News outlets circled like vultures. And in the chaos, one crucial truth disappeared: Hunter Heckel was still a child—both culpable and still developing, guilty and yet unfinished. Through psychological and sociological lenses, Bailey and Chelsea unravel how a local tragedy metastasized into national outrage. They examine the closed-door world of juvenile justice, where rehabilitation battles public fury, and explore the moral panic that turned a courtroom into a cultural warzone. Drawing from neuroscience, social theory, and real juvenile justice policy, the hosts dissect what happens when fear becomes the loudest voice—and what it costs the victims, the families, and the future of every child caught in between. This episode forces a difficult question:When a teenager commits an adult crime, can society still believe in redemption?   Thanks for listening!

⚠ Trigger Warning: This episode discusses violence against children, trauma, and death. Listener discretion is advised. On October 2, 2006, the quiet farmlands of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, were shattered when a local milk truck driver, Charles Carl Roberts IV, stormed a one-room Amish schoolhouse and took ten young girls hostage. By the time police broke through the doors, five were dead, five were clinging to life — and Roberts had turned the gun on himself. What followed stunned the world: instead of anger or vengeance, the Amish community responded with forgiveness. They comforted the killer’s widow, attended his funeral, and extended compassion when the world expected fury. In this episode, Bailey explores the psychology of a man consumed by grief and guilt, while Chelsea examines how faith, culture, and community transformed horror into grace. This is the story of Nickel Mines — a tragedy that became a global lesson in the power, and cost, of forgiveness.

The most devastating crimes don’t always start with violence — sometimes, they begin with a promise. A voice that sounds enlightened. Someone who claims to see something special in you… and then, piece by piece, rewrites what love means. What truth means. What safety means. This is the story of Iasia Sweeting, a gifted teenage artist who vanished in 2010 — and was found years later weighing just fifty-nine pounds in a Gwinnett County hotel room. Her captor, Calvin McIntosh, a self-proclaimed prophet tied to the Nuwaubian Nation of Moors, ruled through doctrine and deprivation. Alongside his daughter, Najlaa McIntosh, he turned faith into a weapon — a theology where obedience meant holiness and hunger was purification. But perhaps most haunting: this didn’t happen in secret. It happened in plain sight — inside an Extended Stay America filled with guests and staff who heard cries... and did nothing. In this episode, Bailey and Chelsea unpack not just what happened, but how: the psychology of coercive control, the sociological blind spots that enabled it, and the survivor who reclaimed her voice after the world stopped listening.

Some crimes don’t begin in the shadows — they start in silence. In this groundbreaking conversation, we sit down with Dr. Christoffer Rahm, psychiatrist and lead researcher at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, and Allison McMahan, psychologist and doctoral candidate specializing in early intervention for individuals with pedophilic disorder. Together, they’re part of a pioneering movement asking one of society’s hardest questions: What if we could stop child sexual abuse before it ever happens? From clinical trials to darknet outreach, their team at Karolinska is reshaping what prevention looks like — through neuroscience, psychotherapy, and empathy. Their program Prevent It offers anonymous, evidence-based therapy to individuals seeking help before they offend, reaching participants across continents and languages. In our discussion, Rahm and McMahan unpack the complexity of pedophilia — what science tells us about its origins, why most sufferers discover their attraction in adolescence, and how empathy, anonymity, and access can literally save lives. They challenge common myths — including the belief that people with these urges are untreatable or destined to offend — and reveal why traditional criminal justice approaches can’t solve a public health crisis this large. This is a conversation about prevention, compassion, and the courage to confront what society avoids. Because silence doesn’t just protect victims — it protects perpetrators. About Dr. Christoffer Rahm: Dr. Christoffer Rahm is a psychiatrist and senior researcher at the Karolinska Institute, one of the world’s leading medical universities. His work focuses on understanding and preventing sexual offending, with an emphasis on early intervention for individuals experiencing pedophilic disorder. Rahm’s clinical and research leadership at the Centre for Psychiatry Research, Region Stockholm, has produced groundbreaking trials — including PRIOtab and Prevent It, programs using psychotherapy and pharmacological treatment (such as testosterone-suppressing agents like degarelix) to reduce risk and improve quality of life. His interdisciplinary approach bridges neuroscience, psychiatry, and public health — reframing child sexual abuse not just as a legal issue, but a preventable medical one. His work has been recognized internationally for offering hope and evidence where once there was only stigma — helping clinicians worldwide understand that empathy and science, together, can stop harm before it starts. About Allison McMahan: Allison McMahan is a licensed clinical psychologist and PhD candidate at the Karolinska Institute, where she co-leads international projects aimed at preventing child sexual abuse. As project coordinator for the Prevent It program — an anonymous, internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy for individuals with pedophilic thoughts — McMahan has worked on expanding access across languages and cultures. Her research focuses on early intervention, treatment optimization, and global accessibility, ensuring those struggling with these thoughts can receive help long before harm occurs. With a background in behavioral therapy and trauma psychology, McMahan brings a compassionate, evidence-based lens to one of the world’s most stigmatized clinical areas. Her mission: to make prevention practical, ethical, and accessible — and to ensure that those seeking help can find it, safely and without shame.   Contact Dr. Rahm: https://ki.se/en/people/christoffer-rahm Contact Allison: https://ki.se/en/people/allison-mcmahan  

Some secrets are buried forever. Others come spilling out in the final moments of life — whispered to a nurse, a prison guard, or an investigator when there’s no more time left to lie. In this Shortcide, Bailey and Chelsea dive into the unsettling world of deathbed confessions. Sometimes they come from guilt too heavy to carry. Sometimes from fear of judgment in the afterlife. And sometimes, from the simple fact that when you’re about to die, there’s nothing left to lose. Together, Bailey and Chelsea unravel two extraordinary stories where these last words cracked open cold cases that had haunted families for decades. One man believed his heart was failing and rushed to free his conscience, only to survive and face the consequences of what he revealed. Another confessed to a decades-old disappearance, leading authorities to shocking discoveries buried right in his own backyard. These are deathbed confessions that arrived too late — but just in time to finally close the cases.   Thanks for listening!

“I acted without any qualms and with a single objective — to commit sexual assaults as often as I could.” Those weren’t the words of a man caught in a single moment of weakness. They were the written confession of Joël Le Scouarnec, a French surgeon who spent more than 25 years preying on children under the cover of his white coat. Behind the image of a trusted doctor lay meticulous diaries, thousands of images, and the names of nearly 300 victims — many assaulted while unconscious on his operating tables. But the horror of this case isn’t only about one man’s compulsion. It’s about the silence that protected him — families who minimized, colleagues who ignored whispers, and institutions that valued reputation over safety. For decades, every system that should have stopped him instead kept him untouchable. This is the story of how silence becomes complicity — protecting a predator in plain sight. And when the tally was finally made, the scale was undeniable: hundreds of victims, etched into journals and confirmed in complaints, cementing this as the largest p*dophilia case in France’s history. **Don't miss our interview about prevention. Can we prevent p*dophiles from claiming victims? Can they change? That's exactly the conversation we have with Dr. Christoffer Rahm and Colleague Allison from the Karolinska Institute of Sweden.

When 18-year-old Danielle Marzejka and 19-year-old Seren Bryan vanished from their Clinton Township home in August 2018, friends expected them to pop back up with a laugh and a message. Instead, their belongings remained untouched—their phones, insulin, and treasured keepsakes left behind. Days later, a horrific discovery in a backyard shed shattered the illusion of safety in suburban Michigan. As investigators unraveled the case, evidence pointed inward. What looked like a spotless bedroom glowed with blood under luminol. Hidden duct tape carried fingerprints. And the suspect’s trail stretched from Michigan to Ohio—ending in a Cincinnati public library, where he sat disguised in a blonde wig and sunglasses, trying to disappear. This is a story that forces us to confront the unthinkable: that violence can come not from strangers, but from within the home. It’s about silence, disguise, and the devastating fracture of a family when blood itself becomes the threat. Thanks for listening!

**CORRECTED/UPDATED 9/3: Audio Issues with this episode** Kenneth McDuff was supposed to die in prison. Instead, a broken justice system set him free—and unleashed one of the most sadistic serial killers Texas has ever known. Nicknamed The Broomstick Killer for the brutality of his first murders in 1966, McDuff’s first death sentence was commuted, and he walked out of prison decades later into a society unprepared for the monster it had released. What followed was a trail of women abducted, strangled, and discarded across county lines, while law enforcement scrambled to connect the dots. Beneath the surface, McDuff lived a double life: a construction worker by day and predator by night, the embodiment of functional psychopathy. His victims revealed society’s blind spots, and his release exposed the failures of a parole system that valued procedure over protection. In the end, McDuff didn’t just claim lives—he forced Texas to rewrite its laws, leaving behind a legacy carved in fear and reform. Thanks for listening!

In April 2008, neighbors in Vidalia, Georgia, were jolted awake by the sound of a shotgun blast. The man who died that morning was no stranger — Sonny Graham was a beloved golf director, a husband, a father. But Sonny also carried a secret: the transplanted heart of another man who had died by suicide more than a decade earlier. That man’s widow, Cheryl, had since become Sonny’s wife. What unfolded was a story so eerie it captured headlines across the world: two suicides, one heart, one wife. But behind the sensational coverage was something far morecomplicated — a collision of love, survival, stigma, and myth-making. In this episode, Bailey and Chelsea unravel the haunting symmetry of Sonny Graham and Terry Cottle’s lives. From the quiet desperation inside a South Carolina trailer, to the medical miracle of a transplant, to the crushing burden of being turned into a symbol, this is the story of how communities cling to folklore when the truth feels unbearable — and why even a heart strong enough to beat twice couldn’t carry the weight of a legend.

In this episode, Bailey and Chelsea peel back the layers of a New York story most people never knew was happening right under their noses. At the height of the city’s cultural revolution—where art, politics, and therapy collided—a radical psychotherapy collective promised liberation from tradition, family, and fear. But what began as an experiment in freedom grew into something far more controlling, and far more dangerous. With Bailey unpacking the psychological traps that rewired minds, and Chelsea exploring the social forces that made so many intelligent New Yorkers vulnerable, this episode asks: how does a group survive not in isolation, but right in the heart of Manhattan? And what happens when the people meant to heal you become the ones holding you captive? Dark, fascinating, and unnervingly close to home—this is the rise and fall of the Sullivanians, the cult that thrived in luxury apartments on the Upper West Side.   If you want to support us, subscribe, rate and review on your favorite podcast listening app!

Some criminals steal for money. These two stole for sport. Chelsea takes on Victor Lustig, the smooth-talking con artist who “sold” the Eiffel Tower — twice — and even conned Al Capone. From fake government papers to counterfeit money presses, Lustig’s schemes left a trail of humiliated victims from Paris to New York. Bailey dives into Ferdinand Waldo Demara, the master impostor who bluffed his way through careers he had no business holding — including performing actual surgeries in the Royal Canadian Navy after skimming a medical textbook. Both men built empires on charm, lies, and sheer audacity. Both pushed their luck until the world finally caught up. And both prove that sometimes, the boldest crimes are the ones so ridiculous… you almost want to see if they’ll get away with it.   If you want to support us, subscribe, rate and review on your favorite podcast listening app!
