    Slayzed and Confused in North Carolina
    May 5 2025
    Hey Slaycaters, get ready for a truly disorienting case that you won’t soon forget. When Judith Lois Bradford Smith accompanied her husband, Jeff, to a pharmaceutical conference in Philadelphia the plan was to mix business with pleasure. While Jeff attended the conference, Judith was to enjoy a day of sightseeing in Philly, including visits to Independence Hall and The Liberty Bell. But when it was time to meet back up — Judith was nowhere to be found. Thus begins a case that starts as a mysterious vanishing and ends up as a homicide over 600 miles away in North Carolina. We’ll save the gory details and our theories as to what happened for the show… but just know, there’s a lot of bad folks out there and beware!

  • MORE KIM: VOLUME #27 (Sneak Peek)

    MORE KIM: VOLUME #27 (Sneak Peek)
    May 3 2025
    You asked for ‘More Kim’—now you got it - in a free sneak peek of the weekly subscriber MORE KIM perk! These are Kim’s takes on Slaycation cases and life’s general madness. This week, we’re giving non-subscribers a sneak peek of More Kim bonus content. But if you want it WITHOUT ads and EVERY week - subscribe now for less than the cost of a skein of yarn a month and you get a 7-day free trial. On today’s MORE KIM we explore the devastating realities of relationship violence through the harrowing stories of Arielle Konig and the recent update on the Ana Knezevich case. From a brutal attack on a Hawaiian hiking trail to a high-tech disappearance in Madrid, these cases illuminate the warning signs, the statistics, and the urgent need for awareness and support. Host Kim unpacks the patterns that escalate to violence—control, coercion, jealousy—and reminds listeners that abuse is never “just emotional.” It’s dangerous. It’s deadly. And it’s more common than we think. If you or someone you love needs help, resources are just a call or click away. If you see these signs in your life or someone else’s — act. Reach out.

  • A Christmas Card from John Wayne Gacy

    A Christmas Card from John Wayne Gacy
    Apr 25 2025
    Hey Slaycaters! While doing some spring cleaning, we found a hidden gem: the wild story of how Adam got a Christmas card from serial killer John Wayne Gacy! It’s packed with behind-the-scenes chaos featuring GG Allin, the most hardcore punk rocker ever, and involves smuggling paintings out of jail and the director of Joker. Originally recorded for another podcast but deemed too “hardcore,” we knew our Slaycaters could handle it. Enjoy — and see you on the next Slaycation! Learn more about your ad choices.

  • What Could Go Wrong in North Korea? (Part 1)

    What Could Go Wrong in North Korea? (Part 1)
    Apr 21 2025
    Hey Slaycaters, normally we take you to a beautiful island, popular tourist destination or even on a cruise… and then something tragically bad happens. This episode is different. Today we’re taking you to the DPRK, aka The Hermit Kingdom, aka North Korea. Not known for being a popular tourist destination because, let’s face it, you’re not really allowed to go. However, that only made it more intriguing to young 22-year old Otto Wambier, who had a penchant for visiting global hotspots. By all accounts, his highly curated trip was going great — until it was time for his Young Pioneers Tour Group to board the plane home. That's when the nightmare began. You may have heard of this story — but the devil is in the details (and the storytelling.) So strap in as we take you to one of the strangest places in the world for one of the strangest Slaycations we’ve been on. As always, thanks for listening and stay safe out there!

  • Knife Imitates Art... (in Rio)

    Knife Imitates Art... (in Rio)
    Apr 14 2025
    Hey Slaycaters, we’re back with a case that feels like a scripted mini-series that has it all: fame, fortune, sex, illicit sex, betrayal, backstabbing, front stabbing and of course, murder. When famed art dealer and world renowned Manhattan gallery owner Brent Sikkema was found brutally murdered in his luxury apartment in Rio de Janeiro it set off an investigation that spanned continents and uncovered a sea of dirty dealings and greed. And since this case happened in January of 2024, it is still relatively new with fresh details still coming out. Join us for a wild ride that feels more fiction than fact — but ripped a very real hole in the art community with the death of one its most beloved figures.

That becomes the question as we go down the many rabbit holes of Amy’s mysterious disappearance that is sure to leave your jaw agape.
