Stay ConnectedCrime Waves dives into the strangest true crime stories you’ve never heard of, investigating real cases that defy belief. Each season is a deep dive into a compelling, season-long mystery, focusing on narratives that feel ripped from a conspiracy thriller but are chillingly real.
Hear the stories told by the people who were there: the witnesses, the investigators, and the ones who were left to pick up the pieces.
Season 1: Cold Truth – Hosted by award-winning journalist and author David Kushner, this season follows the life, violent death, and legacy of Dr. Eugene Mallove, a fierce advocate for the controversial energy known as cold fusion. His murder investigation unravels a dark web of conspiracy, passion, and how his dream of a brighter future ultimately caught up with him.
Season 2: Renaissance, TX – The Texas Renaissance Festival is the largest—and rowdiest—ren fair in the nation. Investigate the murders, assaults, and other crimes that have occurred on the fairgrounds over the years, and uncover how a place built for fantasy could become so dangerous.
Crime Waves is developed and produced by Faceplant and QCODE, in association with No Smiling.
