S3 Bonus Series, Ep. 3 | The Other Chairs, Part 2: You Forwarded a Video Aug 23, 2026

On November 30th, 2018, Brittany Wallace Shank said she was almost to her grandma’s. She never made it. She was 23. A mother of four. Sturgis, Michigan.

For years, her case sat still. Then, in 2023, people started sitting down in the other chairs.

A lot of you have asked what happened after we brought what we found to law enforcement. Here’s the answer: we gave them everything we saved. All of it. In Part 1, you heard what they did with it — Ashley’s interview, and the questions that never got asked.

Part 2 is the rest of the chairs. The husband — Eric, across the table from Detective Auton, answering the questions this case has been circling since day one. The drug dealer — the man who says he met Brittany exactly once, and the message thread that says more than he does. The boyfriend. And the third man in the apartment. Plus a phone call I recorded in 2022, a year before detectives caught up — so you can hear one man’s story twice, a year apart, and decide for yourself what changed.

You’ll hear Brittany’s own voice in this episode. You’ll hear the minute her day stops. And you’ll hear me say the thing that should make everyone in St. Joseph County uncomfortable:

Eight polygraphs, by the county’s own count. Seven years. No one has ever been charged.

Somebody forwarded a video. Somebody knows the rest.

Play the tape. Read the paper. Compare.

Listener discretion advised. This episode contains descriptions of a missing person case and recorded law-enforcement interviews.

Part 1 — “The Other Chairs, Part 1: The Fake Cry” — is available now. Start there.

S3 Bonus Series, Ep. 2 | The Other Chairs, Part 1: The Fake Cry Aug 23, 2026

The people who were physically closest to Brittany in her last week sat in interview rooms across five years. We have the tapes. We have the paper the detectives filed afterward. This episode runs on one process: play the tape, read the paper, compare.

Part one is the best friend — Ashley. Two chairs, four and a half years apart, and the night nobody ever really asked her about.

Brittany Wallace Shank has been missing since November 30, 2018 — Sturgis, Michigan. Nobody heard in this episode has ever been charged with anything connected to her disappearance.

Part two — “The Other Chairs, Part 2: You Forwarded a Video” — is out now: the husband’s week of texts, and the interview that never asked about any of it.

S3 Bonus Series, Ep. 1 | The Three Calls Jul 31, 2026

For seven years, the world has known one phone call from Brittany Wallace Shank's last day. There were more.

On the afternoon of November 30, 2018 — hours before she vanished outside Sturgis, Michigan — Brittany spoke three times with a man calling from a Michigan prison. Those calls were recorded. Today, for the first time, you'll hear them: three calls, in order, on the clock, ending with the last conversation of her known life.

And then you'll hear the other side of it. In a brand-new 2026 interview, the man on the other end of that line — Zachary — sits down with James, seven years later, to talk about what's on that tape: the message she said she couldn't say over the phone, the people she named, what he heard in her voice, and something he saw eight months after she disappeared that he's never been able to shake.

New audio. A new interview. A newly released case file with details never discussed publicly. The Bonus Series starts now.

Brittany Wallace Shank: What We Were Told vs. What We Found Out (Bonus Series Trailer) Jun 23, 2026

For the first time, you'll hear Brittany Wallace Shank's own voice from the day she disappeared — and what the people closest to her said when they didn't think anyone was listening.

This summer, Hide and Seek returns to Brittany's case with a bonus series built on what we never had the first time: newly obtained interviews — audio and video — and a case file that runs right up to today. Her final 911 call. What her husband answered, and what he wouldn't. A man who told police one story, and the truth another. What we were told. What we found out. The lies we uncovered.

New here? Start with Season 3. It's the full story of Brittany's disappearance from Sturgis, Michigan — and it'll make everything coming this summer land, with no catching up required.

And to everyone waiting on Season 5: it's still a full go. I'm actively working that case right now. The plan is Brittany's bonus series this summer, with Season 5 tentatively eyeing a late-2026 start. No firm date yet — but I'm not stepping away from it. If you want to put a little toward making it happen, there's a Season 5 production fund on Ko-fi.

Want to go deeper? Patreon is home base — behind-the-scenes, and the video interviews are coming there too. Come go deeper with us, and help keep the search for Brittany alive.

And if someone's come to mind while you've been listening — someone from back then, someone who knew her, someone who knows something — this is the episode to send them.

Two polygraphs. Two promises of truth. But when the tests ended, the real deception began.
One passed. One failed. Neither told the full story.

In this explosive chapter, James confronts Howard Wheeler with proof his airtight alibi was a fabrication, and catches it all unfolding in real time. Meanwhile, Rachel Barton’s collapse after her failed test triggers something no one saw coming: a new timeline. A new last sighting. A new crack wide enough to change everything.
This isn’t about who fooled the machine.
It’s about who kept lying after the mask fell off.
And this time, the cracks are too big to ignore.

Eps XV Nose Down, Tail Up Feb 15, 2025

A storm looms over Scatter View, thunder rolling in like an omen. The road is slick, the trees towering, the night swallowing everything in its path. Somewhere in the chaos, a story is unraveling—twisting, slipping through fingers like a memory half-remembered.

A voicemail surfaces, buried and forgotten. A message that shouldn’t be missing—gone from one phone, but not the other. A bloodhound picks up a trail, but where it leads changes everything we thought we knew. The pieces don’t fit, the timeline bends, and a blue sedan speeds off into the unknown.

This isn’t just a disappearance—it’s a maze of contradictions. And the closer we get to the truth, the more the shadows shift.

Did Shane Barton leave on his own? Or did something far more sinister take him into the night?

XI: The Message Unread Jan 18, 2025

The clock ticks in the shadows as secrets claw their way to the surface. In this gripping chapter of Hide and Seek, James (Baysinger) plunges into the chaos surrounding Shane Barton's disappearance, unraveling a story where every answer spawns two more questions. The text messages, the arguments, the desperate pleas—they all carry the weight of something just out of reach, like a voice in the dark whispering warnings too late to hear.

Rachel Barton, raw and relentless, opens a window into a fractured past, piecing together memories of love, frustration, and eerie silence. Shane’s phone is a treasure chest of clues—cryptic messages, unsettling patterns, and sudden shifts that feel more like cracks in a frozen lake

Tension twists tighter with every revelation. Financial strains that snap like frayed ropes, family ties that bind too tightly, and a lingering question—was this escape, betrayal, or something far worse? The answers feel close enough to touch, but just as elusive as Shane himself.

The truth is waiting, hidden in the spaces between the lines. But when it reveals itself, will we be ready?
A single unopened text sits like a ticking bomb in Shane’s phone. What did it say, and why didn’t he reply?

Eps VII: Overdue Truths Dec 13, 2024

In this episode of Hide and Seek, James delves deeper into the tangled narratives surrounding Shane Barton’s disappearance by revisiting key interviews and analyzing conflicting recollections. James’s investigation takes him to the Barton property, where Rachael Barton retraces her actions on the day Shane vanished. Yet, her timeline is riddled with inconsistencies — from phone usage to the supposed last sighting of Shane in the fifth wheel.

James also interviews Shane’s son, Danner Barton, whose stoic demeanor and strained relationship with his mother add new layers to the case. Danner’s perspective on the events of March 9th raises questions about family dynamics, while his insight into the family’s access to Wi-Fi adds another piece to the puzzle. Additionally, conversations with Shane’s daughter, Hayden Barton, reveal a shift from openness to silence, leaving more questions than answers.

Further complicating the narrative are insights from Howard Wheeler and John Bean, who expose past financial disputes and character tensions that may be key to understanding Shane’s disappearance.

As James pieces together these interviews, the contradictions and evasions make it increasingly difficult to discern the truth. Is the family’s fractured story concealing a deeper reality, or are these inconsistencies just noise in an already complex case?

Eps VI: Where Silence Speaks Dec 06, 2024

Rachael’s testimony—layered with emotion and contradiction—takes center stage, as does the chilling layout of the property where everything began. Join us as we untangle threads, unpack revelations, and question everything we thought we knew.

Eps IV: A Door Left Closed Nov 22, 2024

On a quiet morning, Shane Barton prepared coffee, and life seemed routine—until it wasn’t. What clues linger in the frozen ice cubes, the untouched phone, and the peculiar silence of that day? As Rachel retraces her steps, every detail feels both mundane and deeply mysterious. Could the smallest of actions—a closed bedroom door, the scent of coffee, a missing jacket—hold the answers? Where did Shane go, and why does his absence feel like a void left untouched? Dive into the reenactment of Shane's last known moments and uncover the questions that still remain unanswered.
